--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.

Although I was mesmerized by the IU/PU volleyball showdown on BTN, it still makes no sense to keep the IU v. Grace game off TV.  Regardless, sportsline gametracker worked like a champ for Deuce the displaced Hoosier.  Anyway, some thoughts on the game.
1. The starting line-up, I was pleasantly surprised to see Jeremiah Rivers start.  He looked 100% healthy and dominate

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

Finally, it's time to forget about the sorry state of our football program and get back to the good stuff, Hoosiers Basketball.  Lots of questions going into the season but first and foremost, who will Coach Crean select as the starters for tonight's game against Grace?  There has been a lot of chatter about the players' performance over the summer and the potential of the ...(more)

I skimmed through some college basketball annual publications for the upcoming season as well as read ESPN's take on the upcoming season and it seems like the popular prediction is for the Hoosiers to finish 10th in the Big Ten.  What is everyone's take so far?

I think that Michigan State and Purdue will fight for #1.  Michigan, Ohio State and Minnesota in any order will mak

Finally.  Seems odd that they wait until today considering IU had an exhibition game last night.  They couldn't possibly have done this yesterday so he could get some game time?

Here is a link that shows some of last night, but not near all the fun of the evening.

Had a great time with the family, and if you ever get a chance to go; I recommend it- coach Crean really knows how to entertain, and the fellas looked solid.

The story that was apparently released pretty quietly is that the NCAA will now allow unlimited phone calls to recruits during a particular sports open contact period.  WTF.  Are you F'ing kidding me?  They say it's just too difficult to monitor phones, so they are opening it up.  Don't get me wrong, I'm happy that we have Crean ...(more)

Former IU President and NCAA exec passed away, losing his fight to cancer.  I wish his family peace.  I in now way want to diminish his legacy.  I do think there are many IU fans who felt his treatment of Bob Knight and Indiana University were unduly harse.  For that reason, I can only say that Indiana starts fresh with new leadership.  We can no longer bash Brand as our s ...(more)

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)
