I presume we’re all in agreement that we want NW over IN though…

Was just about to post something similar.

I know we're supposed to be all about "conference pride" and wanting as many conference teams in the Dance as possible, but screw IU.

I've harbored a strong dislike of them since (at least) the days when Alford was coach in Iowa City.

I wonder how much they paid his kid.

Good question. Guessing over $1 million.

Why I say that:

From a quick Google AI search:

* Tucker DeVries was rumored to be making around $1 million in NIL for the 2024-25 season while at West Virginia.

* Indiana basketball is considered one of the top 10 programs in the country regarding NIL resources, with reports suggesting their NIL budget is over $10 million. However, individual player NIL deals are not public record.

* Darian DeVries, by the way, made $4.25 million this season ($27 million, 6 year deal).

As Alford would say.... They are a football school.

There looked to be a lot of red in the stands tonight. They can't be happy.

Just 24 second half points for IU.

Northwestern led 70-52 with about 5 1/2 minutes left.

Northwestern now has a 7 game winning streak against the Hoosiers.

The Goofs choking this one away. Two awful possessions under the 1 minute mark. Likely looking, at best, a birth to the NIT.
