i agree. 2003-04 and 2004-05 were really tough years to go through because of all the losing, but at least you weren't teased with unreasonable preseason expectations in those seasons.

this season was a complete disaster and im not just talking about the sampson situation. what exactly did they accomplish? their best non-conference wins were illinois state and kentucky. they went 0-fer vs. wisconsin, split with michigan state (that beatdown in lansing should've equated to TWO losses), would've split with purdue if they had played at mackey (thank God they didn't), finished 3rd in a weak big ten, did nothing in the Big Ten Tournament (except lose to an awful minnesota team), and were one-and-done against a mid-level SEC team (after making sonny weems look like jimmy jackson).

what was eric gordon's "moment" this year? ten years from now when someone asks you something you remember about gordon, what will you say? his 33 points against chattanooga? his 30 against UNC-wilmington? i think ill remember his 4-32 3-pt (12%) shooting in the last four games of his collegiate careeer.

when old yeller had rabies, travis had to go out back and put him out of his misery. i did the same with IU basketball last night. im glad its over.

Let's talk about the next coach now. It's the only thing that I have hope for, but I do fear that the 10-person committee is going to screw it up.

The most frustrating and disappointing IU season ever.

I was calling for EJ to go to the bench when all of the sudden he comes flying in for that put-back dunk late in the game. As bad as he was tonight, you just don't know when the next great play is going to come from him. That said, no reason to play 40 minutes tonight.
