But I'll be rooting for Dook tonight. I hate Indiana about as much as you hate Dook, so I hope Indiana loses by 30. I honestly can't believe Indiana scheduled a game on Dook's home floor.

I don!t think UI had a choice about the scheduling. It is because of the ACC/Big Ten Challenge . At least that's what I think.

I hate Puke more than UI so I guess I'll be a Hoosier tonight.

I too will be a Hoosier fan tonight, but I expect Puke will beat them by double figures.

Maybe they'll go 10 overtimes and call it a tie. [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

Here is a article on the game which was entitled
"IU finds out how far it is from nation's elite"

On Wednesday, Indiana looked outclassed and overmatched in a 20-point thrashing at Duke, a game played in front of a noteworthy audience.

In addition to the Cameron Crazies – Duke’s student section – and Blue Devils legend Grant Hill, Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany made the trip. He sat next to IU athletic director Fred Glass. They sat next to several prominent IU donors, including Cindy Simon Skjodt, whose gift is spearheading Assembly Hall’s renovation, and trustee Andy Mohr.

On Wednesday, Indiana was so humbled that Duke students ended a 94-74 defeat chanting “N-I-T” at a team considered by many a dark-horse Big Ten title contender when the season began just a month ago.

I am glad Blackmon decided to go to IU rather than UK, he loves to shoot and does not like to play defense so he would never have made it in Cals system of defense first. He and Ferrell, the two IU guards took 28 of IU's 53 shots last night and neither was even close to shooting 50 percent. I think Crean will probably be on the hot seat this season, he apparently does not teach his kids to play defense and he has had plenty of time to get IU basketball back to respectability.

Crean has not brought in the talent Indiana is used to and has a 94-50 record while at Indiana. What has Indiana fans wondering is that not only did he have a 19-12 record last season but were 9-9 in the Big Ten. This season they are 5-3 losing to Wake Forrest, Duke and a home game to UNLV.

The UNLV and Wake losses were in the Maui tournament Bruce, neither at IU. I know several IU alumni down here in SC and they are all calling for his head, were at the end of last season and have already starting screaming very loud this season. I can understand their feelings, at UK, we would not stand for the type teams Crean has put on the floor for IU since coming there. He had that one good team with Cody Zeller but has been so so other than that.

You said it earlier, SCWC. IU has no clue what "defense" means. They are horrible on defense, and basically have been the entire Crean era.

Too big a buy out for him to be fired this year. Something like 7.5m after next july maybe 4.5 so could happen then I guess.

AD there made a big mistake based on his pass giving huge long term contract to him
