Would be a ton of pressure on IU from a national perception perspective if Coyle can someone pull a rabbit out of his ass and get Musselman or even Dutcher. Nothing would sting IU pride more than the gophers landing a more highly regarded coach. I can dream..

Do people actually have a problem with the arena itself? I get the concourse and the bathroom issues (personally I think they are charming in their own way). I have been to multiple other college basketball and Williams has one of the best atmospheres by far when it is even moderately full. It...

Improve whatever you can in the concourse/bathrooms without changing the arena. 100% against changing anything in the actual arena besides hanging the final 5 banner and Bobby Jackson up

Yes, I am petty.

People that think this would be a guaranteed long rebuild are mistaken. This is probably the best year EVER to make a change. The transfer market is going to be bigger than ever and the ability to get a waiver is going to be easier than ever. An exciting hire (Musselman couch cough) COULD...

sad that waking up is going 3-9 from 3

Damn. Did not see that coming. Michigan St. might have been ice-cold but we looked more talented in all facets. Kalscheur - I often question whether Gabe is truly a good defender, but he played elite defense tonight Gach - continues to struggle on the offensive end in both his shooting and his...

Great win tonight no doubt. I still stand behind my comment and opinion of pitino. We have played two conference games. Still more than likely we finish toward the bottom of the conference, and not in a great spot for next year. do you want me to make a thread if we lose the next game quoting...

We are only 7 games in. I don't remember there being an issue with him feeding Oturu last year so I am just going to attribute it to unfamiliarity.

My comments on the game and the team in general: 1. Ihnen needs to be getting a lot more minutes. He is the only guy on the team that shows any desire to fight for rebounds. He has a decent stroke and his length on D is a nice bonus. I have been pleasantly surprised with Ihnen and disappointed...

The craziest thing to me is Pitino's roster. He has never been able to build a deep roster. We are in year 8 and we needed THREE transfers and we are still going to finish in the bottom of the conference. What's worse is what are we going to do next year??

I am just getting tired of the pity party for Gabe by the announcers every game. It is getting really sad. Just let him fade back into obscurity - no need to keep hyping him up

Above average defender. Struggles against quicker guards. Hope he turns it around, but based on present play Tre should be eating into his minutes. Between Gabe, Tre, or maybe even Mutaf... whoever can make a higher 3% should be the one getting the PT. Having a shooter on the floor to compliment...

...or it means we need shooting and Tre is still hurt and Gabe is 1-10 again.....

He looked great last night. Mystery as to why he hasn't been getting minutes. Maybe that has been the plan all along to get him acclimated. I hope so. I wouldn't mind him getting 10 minutes next game and seeing what he can do.

Didn't they just cut men's gymnastics to save like 1.8M or something? If we are serious about being a good basketball team we need to take the leap, but that is not going to be a good PR look

I think it is pretty clear Pitino is not the guy. Here we are in year 8(?) hoping we can crack 10th place in the conference. Not like we can drop much further in the conference. You can't say Pitino hasn't been given a fair shake. Having said that, I don't think Coyle would have the balls to...

This probably doesn't belong in a Mutaf thread, but at what point are you hurting the development of younger, more promising players while you wait/hope for 2018 Gabe to come back. Guys like Williams have shown they are more deserving of minutes so far this year. A 6th man role for a "defensive...

I chuckled at this but then I realized you were serious.

Why do people keep saying this? does he really play great defense? Seems to me he usually struggles against quicker guards. I think he is an above average to good defender. Great? No.
