Indiana held a double digit advantage at one point yesterday, only to go scoreless for nine minutes in the 2nd half. During which, Northwestern went on a 22-6 run. But it’s more than that.

Indiana Survives Northwestern in OT
Indiana was finally able to end their 11-game losing streak, knocking off Northwestern in OT 88-80. This win gave Indiana their 10th win, and ended a drought in which Indiana hadn’t won since January 21st. It was a quality win by this young basketball team and staff desperate for a win. This wasn’t a typical looking Indiana basketball game we had seen all this season. …
The Recruiting Trail
Matt Painter at Purdue must be complimented on his recruiting. Not only is he getting some quality talent, but he took over the reigns of dominating in-state talent.

What I have been up to since then – working Pacers, IU, Butler, and ESPN games.
In fact this last week was …
Creek done for the season as Hoosiers coast
Indiana matched last season’s win total, picking up their 6th win of the season with a 90-42 victory over Bryant University. Bryant, in just their 2nd year of playing Division I basketball, it was evident from the outset that this would be a momentum win, a win that would boost the confidence of this young team.
The big news however is that Tom Crean lost …
