The drift of Eric Gordon from peerless national regard and King Hoosier to passive, disconsolate underachiever, a trend that had a sad culmination last night in Raleigh, was one of the most disheartening stories of the year.

THERE IS NO I IN TEAM!
There are reasons why there were so many upsets in the first round. It's because the school's without superstars, and even ones with them, understand the word TEAM. So, stay in college EJ, you still have a lot to learn, little boy.

Not one pick and roll with EJ and DJ...not one time did Gordon post up some twig that was attempting to cover him. Our offense consisted of EJ running around in a circle to end up at the L to split 2 defenders to get to the hole. Made no sense at all...from start to finish. Other than EJ...our defense was awful all year long...For EJ...the slump is not going to kill his draft status. All that matters now is the workouts at the Moody Bible Institute...and for whatever team checks him out. A great defender...he will be great...but needs to play POINT....and work at moving without the ball. DJ White will be a great pro...total work-horse...and barely ever off...and way less stupid fouls this year.
Now... I love IU, but take a good look...IU is a total trainwreck of a program. Let's admit it, we are horrible from top to bottom. I also bet half this team transfers.
Not only was EJ way off since Kelvin "Sanction" got canned...so was Crawford and Ellis.
On paper...we should have beaten lots of teams. Think about it...we had more
talent than the 1987 team. Talent on paper does not always translate to WINS.
We needed to play together as a team, and never came together. DJ played great from start to finish.
Going out in public and announcing that we are seeking a new coach...WHILE the team
is still playing....says it all....totally out of touch with the players, coaches and fans.
Terrible P.R. We may not land a blue chip for a long time now....again...which is a good thing I think.
Let's get the Alford's, Cheaney's, Coverdale's, and 4 year players going again.
Get rid of the A.D...he is .horrible. He is to blame for the whole mess that is IU basketball.
We are a joke of a program...we used to be a force.
No one fears us....they just laugh at IU now. Everytime I think we can have a good year, we
end up looking like a monkey ***'ing a football out there. Horrible. I bet Bobby Knight and Mike Davis are dying laughing at IU's bumbling right now.
