--New coach Tom Crean received an eight-year contract to leave Marquette but has little remaining from last season's talented squad. Indiana agreed to pay $650,000 of Crean's contract buyout at Marquette. His contract could be worth as much as $18 million. In order to leave Indiana, Crean would have a $3 million contract buyout with the Hoosiers.

FINAL RECORD
25-7 overall, 14-4 in the Big Ten, third place.

WHAT WENT RIGHT
F D.J. White was the Big Ten Player of the Year in his senior season as he averaged 17.3 points and a conference-leading 10.3 rebounds. G Eric Gordon led the Big Ten in scoring with a 20.7 average and was the conference's Freshman of the Year.

WHAT WENT WRONG
Kelvin Sampson was forced to resign as coach in late February after being found to have violated NCAA rules regarding phone calls to recruits. Assistant coach Dan Dakich was given the job on an interim basis but led the Hoosiers to a 3-4 record, including losses to Minnesota in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament and Arkansas in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. It was great to have G Armon Bassett at the point, averaging 11.5 points and 3.3 assists a game, but he was booted off the team by Dakich in April and his future is in some doubt.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"I'm going to look for people who understand why we wear the candy-striped pants and why we wear Indiana on our jerseys. It's going to take time." -- New coach Tom Crean at his introductory press conference.

and I know this isn't an NBA thread. 
But the very idea of Tyler Hansbrough in an Indiana (Pacer) uniform is appropriate.  It's just what Larry Bird envisioned to bring Indiana basketball (Pacer style) to being competitive.  I know, I know, this isn't an NBA board, nor is it a North Carolina thread, and to be frank; I aint a big fan of either...however, I am a big fan of this

I have posted on several threads here and most of my favorites are the longer-running, come in, stand up sit down threads where people vent. So I thought I would make my own. Hoosiedad, Dale, Xtreme, Josh, Nate, Darren (where have you gone?) need to help me on this. So here goes.

Post about anything you want. IU B-Ball will be nothing short of cinematic this year and I expect nothin

Don't hold your breath...Bawa Muniru and Maurice Creek are found to be missing from the famous 2009 'Bring IU Basketball back' Class.  Is it me that seems just as IU basketball has a chance to get back on track the wind in our sail dies down.  I hope this one isn't the case.  I don't know if these guys just can't figure a way to enter Division one or they're just buying time at ...(more)

I know I may never be allowed back here for posting at thread about UK.  But no one on here seems to be talking about what is going on at UK?  No one is saying that they are walking a dangerous path that seems eerily familiar?  Is it just so obvious or that I am way off base?  I would love your thoughts

The 6-10 junior from New Albany, Indiana verbaled to Purdue today (either today or yesterday).  I was really hoping that IU would pursue this kid a little more; he expressed a little interest in IU, but verbaled to Purdue even though they don't have a scholarship available for him. 
Got to give Painter a little respect for pulling in a big without even being able to give him a

The youngest golfer in the tourny, Dave Erdy a 19 year old IU student, has started the US Open.  Pretty cool.  Read the story at this link. Go Hoosiers, go Erdy!

I don't wish anyone or any organization harm. But I will be curious to see how the NCAA comes down on USC following testimony by OJ Mayo that he accepted a bribe/ gift to come to USC. You can read the story for more details.  Does the NCAA judge equally? Hmmm, Hoosier fans may say no.  Lets watch and see.  I think we all know there is alot of money floating out there to grease the r ...(more)

You can take this for what it's worth...which may mean nothing to you, but for me; I found it fascinating.  A while back I ran into Kyle Tabor and Lance Stemler at a local gambling establishment....I know, I know...don't judge, just listen...

I immediately called out Kyle and shook his hand--- he doesn't know me from Adam, so consider the circumstances...I didn't say a word to Lanc

Does anyone have any info on David Williams?  I've looked on Scout and Rivals and there isn't too much written about the guy.  I do know that he is not rated as a SF and is a 2-star recruit but that's about all.  I also see that he had some interest by SEC teams to include Kentucky but he's never visited Bloomington officially so i wonder were the interest came from (on both sides). ...(more)
