Any reason Hollowell didn't play last night? Just to get Elston and Perea one PT? Injury?

 

Crean didn't really say, but I think he did mention that it wasn't a grade issue. Had to be something though for him to not even make it into the game.

Something had to be wrong. As to what, who knows -- could be grades or other disciplinary action or lack of effort or sickness or injury. But one does not go from in the rotation to not playing at all in a 39-point blowout without some reason. Especially considering it's a player that needs playing time/seasoning.

...hoping that Hollowell's minutes were just given to Perea and Elston. All three of them need minutes in these blowout games.

Savor it Duke, I believe Groce is going to put an end to days of Kentucky, Duke, et. al. plucking whatever player they want out of Chicago and the rest of Illinois.

I can only assume that means Illinois will start cheating.

Considering the amount of posts about IU on this board -- quite a few coming from non-IU fans (including, I suppose, your post too?) -- I'd say a number of people.

 

i wasn't talking about IU talk, i was talking about the dissecting of every painfully minute detail of IU's season. OMIGOD CREAN WAS WEARING BROWN SLACKS LAST NIGHT WHATSITMEAN?

 

there can't even be that many IU fans that care about whatever it is you animals are discussing. can you start a new thread for "IU talk no one, not even IU fans, cares about"?

Why the hell not? It happens everywhere. I mean besides USC football.

 

 

Also does Jabari Parker use butter to wash his face?

Ha . . . well, whatever slacks Crean was wearing, they were about three sizes too big as per usual.

 

As for the topic at hand, Hollowell was a top-40 recruit with NBA potential, so that seems pretty relevant. Oh well.

Not counting Maurice Creek, Illinois has as many 4-star-or-above players as Indiana (although IU has two 5-stars in that group). That and this year's start really speak to how poor of a job Bruce Weber did.

He also had Meyers Leonard and Crandall Head to use at some point last year. He had as much talent as anyone in America not named Kentucky. He just didn't put together pieces that fit.
