While the season is over, the future remains bright. Today's game was zero fun to watch, watching the remaining games may be borderline impossible.
Wew. A lot of people on this forum give up so damn easily.
We just lost to potentially the worst team in the conference at home. 1+1=2.

The season is absolutely over.
Now we get to see what Pitino has got. Can he rally the troops? This season is far from over.
Agreed. Still plenty of games to go. With Lynch and Coffey out......as well as a sick IW.......we were short handed. Didn't help that the refs were garbage.
Hurt has had his chance. Ditto for Konate. Let some other guys try to contribute.
Very disappointed in Hurts play in particular. Absolutely nothing.
For the people saying there is a chance the season can be salavaged you’re clearly not paying any attention to the details. The guys playing big minutes lack the intangibles that cannot be taught or improved on. Combine that with it’s the fact our veterans still had a chance to win the game but failed miserably.
Even before suspensions and injuries I think it was becoming blaringly apparent this team has some major deficecies. With the recruiting class next year, Curry coming back, and some nice pieces still in place, it’s clear next year the team will be deep, talented and experienced.
The one major question is IW figurig it out and pitino finding a juco or grad transfer to clock minutes at PG.

Best post of the day, every single word holds 100% truth. It's time to start looking ahead.

what bugged me: there was a stretch where Murphy started going 1-on-1 every time down court, and Mason was visibly upset. So, Mason then decided that he was going to take every shot for the next 5 minutes. Yeah, there are guys out of the game. But you still have to run your freakin' offense. That is where Pitino needs to take charge. Tell these guys - run the offense or sit next to me on the bench. You can't let guys go rogue or try to win the game single-handed. The less talent you have - the more important teamwork becomes.
Everybody on the team displayed some really poor shot selection at various times in the game. And Harris must be in the biggest freakin' doghouse ever to not see the floor. I'd rather have him out there chuckin' up 3's - he might make 1.
This is not a team. It is a collection of individuals. They don't believe in each other.what bugged me: there was a stretch where Murphy started going 1-on-1 every time down court, and Mason was visibly upset.

Well, if Mason was getting angry at Murphy when he was hot, that sounds pretty petty aI think that's over the top. They were playing without two starters and played hero ball. It wasn't pretty. It doesn't mean that's what we'll see going forward.
That was a disgusting display of basketball smarts by both teams. Just unbelievably bad basketball all game. Murph....WTF was he thinking? Maybe the worst shot I have ever seen in my life. Hurt...I defended him plenty, but that was the worst inbound pass I've ever seen and one of the worst overall games ever played. Fitz... maybe learn the system. He has no idea where he is supposed to be most of the time. Konte...just wow. Words cannot describe how dumb of a game that was by him. That last sequence couldn't have been worse. Lots of games left, but it is too bad it will only result in a lame NIT bid. Today was a must win as Indiana is a terrible basketball team.
Anyone else notice Rick Pitino move from his seat and speak to Stockman during the under 8 timeout in second half? I wonder what was shared.
