Bobby Petrino = instant douche chills

That would be putting it nicely. We had Minnesota confuzzled by our zone defense in the first half so yeah let's not play that defense AT ALL in the 2nd half. Oh and the fact Sheehey was an important part of our 19-3 first half run and the kid doesn't get back on the court until like 8 minutes left in the game. Oh and the continued insistence on letting Verdell pretend he is Magic Johnson. I don't get it anymore. Sure the man can recruit but at this point I'm not sure he could beat Mike Davis in a coaching contest. And yeah, that is being harsh. That is very harsh. But Crean's just not making any sense anymore. I knew the team wasn't going to be great, but they shouldn't be doing the same crap they did when they had 13 walk-ons on the roster. I'm seeing 0 improvement on the floor, from a team that brought everyone back. His substitutions just seem so random. Very often he will sub out the guy with a hot hand almost as if he has just decided he needs to sub guys out every so often and he can't recognize what is happening on the court as he makes his moves. And to not even stick with that zone in the 2nd half...my god, you are playing a defense that is clearly stifling and confusing Minnesota. So yeah let's not make them beat that defense before we stop using it, just don't use it all in the 2nd half. That is beyond mind boggling. I can't even wrap my head around how that even makes sense.

The Big 10 is 2-5 right now. Not that I expect tOSU to win but still...

Didn't like the clapping after every foul? Didn't like the clapping while he was playing on-ball defense. The last time I saw that it was in Cameron indoor. Arguing the intentional foul after he wrapped up May from behind (at least that's what it looked like live from behind the play, haven't seen a replay of it) was just dumb. The guy is versatile though, he's gonna be a matchup nightmare. Yeah I don't like the clapping while guarding a guy, it accomplishes nothing. No player of importance is going to be affected by it. The intentional foul on replay, was pretty clearly not. He was obviously attempting to foul the guy, but the way he did is never called intentional, he was making a play on the ball, just from over the top. The clapping after every foul on him seems to be his defense mechanism to stop himself from bitching. He'll do it on calls where he'll tell the ref he's right, and when he wants to argue. Him and Tom Crean should have a clapping contest. :good:

Gotta hand it to the Cardinals. They haven't missed a beat without Boldin and Warner. :hello:

Just give Rodgers another concussion before the starters get pulled and consider the mission accomplished. :hello:

Yeah, he showed you. \:D/ it was a lucky throw, real lucky. got away with one there I agree. He is a chucker.

Yeah, he showed you. \:D/

Not until he gets 10 more fantasy points. :P The fumble he just lost won't help. Yeah he is kind of screwing me over tonight but whatever. The Bears getting a bye week is much more important.

Not until he gets 10 more fantasy points. :P

Joe Webb, superstar.

the pass rush looks beastly tonight It helps to be able to run the same blitz over and over with Winfield. \:D/

That would be outstanding I think I'd become an Illini fan before I would accept that douchebag as the coach of Indiana. And yes that makes me feel very dirty to say. :shock:

DO NOT WANT

Well I'm not saying Rivers should run the point. But he has adjusted well to his new role at least.

Rivers is actually worse at handling the ball, at least he was last year. There's no reason for Jones to have the ball over Hulls though. Jones is averaging 4 turnovers per game this year. 3.4 assists. Rivers has been a totally different player this season so it isn't fair to throw around last season's stats. But he still has the same limitation of not being able to shoot a jumper so that still handicaps him.

Stop trying to make me feel better. [-( lol Well then who are we going to beat in the Big Ten then? Iowa. I'd like to believe that but they did kind of spank the same Northern Iowa team that IU could not handle in Vegas.

Stop trying to make me feel better. [-( lol Well then who are we going to beat in the Big Ten then?

IU is going to lose to Penn State. I've decided to move into the acceptance stage.

And just like that he has decided to stop sucking. \:D/

34-25 at halftime. :roll:

Down 30-16 to Penn State. #-o
