    OT: My Red Devils have just won the Indiana state championship.

    It was 1993. Sherron had a bad ending to his IU career, getting kicked off the team junior year for assaulting his girlfriend.

    OT: Big 10 Futility

    Even more amazing is Big Ten schools have lost the title game 8 times in a row since Sparty won in 2000. 8 times the bridesmaid: IU-2002, Illinois-2005, OSU-2007, MSU-2009, Michigan-2013, Wisconsin-2015, Michigan again-2018, Purdue-2024.

    Coach Cal Replacements

    Yes-you are correct on the NBA coach theory-look at Woodson at IU or Ewing at Georgetown, Juwan Howard, etc... It never works.

    The 2003-2004 NBA Champion Detroit Pistons (night before we beat Michigan St at Ford Field)

    Did they have Rasheed Wallace at that point in the season? They were a good team, but became great when they acquired him.

    Bump this thread when Indiana sucks

    Nope-never won it and only been to the final game once in 25 years-if my memory is correct.

    The state of the UK basketball program. Are we closer to being the UK of the 90's, or closer to being another Indiana?

    It really hurt IU as well that Knight was so bitter after his firing and did everything he could to payback his former school. The best example is convincing Sean May not to go to IU (he was a lock before Bobby got fired). Knight wanted him at Texas Tech, but he chose UNC as a compromise...

    The state of the UK basketball program. Are we closer to being the UK of the 90's, or closer to being another Indiana?

    There was a Texas Tech merch store on the south side of Indy-when I lived there in the early 2000s. Always looked like business was good too. To the original poster-I've been an IU fan a long time and its been so painful to watch us decline into what our program is now. I do agree that...

    #1 Purdue and #2 Houston lost, who do #3, #4 and #5 play next?

    If all of them lost, I'd bet the rankings stay the same as this week. I'm pretty sure something like that happened a few years ago where the top 5 or 6 all lost on the same day/weekend.

    Purdue goes down

    We IU fans like to joke that they win the November National Championship every year. Like clockwork, they go down as soon as the calendar turns.
