Guess depth is overrated...

KU and IU played only 8 players each in this match up.

The 8th player on KU logged 7 min of PT, the 8th player for IU 5 min of PT.

KU starters played 157 min out of 200.

IU starters played 168 min out of 200.
 
I happened to be at a BDubs in Northwest Indiana, I'll tell you they love their Hoosier Basketball here. Place went bonkers.
 
well, the refs took Davis out of the game and that was it..
a couple of his fouls were less contact than a feather against the skin...but any time UK loses I can be happy...

SORRY! UK.....:oops:

While I am normally different than 'most people', in this case, I was just dyslexic! :lol:
 
It took Tom Crean 3-4 years but he has it going in the right direction. Bradley fans should take note of that situation and understand how long it will take to get things turned around on the Hilltop.

Takes some patience and faith in the process, but like Crean, Geno Ford has a plan and a past process of success of which to fall back on.

Ford and Crean took over with much different situations. Not a good comparison IMO

He also recruited over so many players in order to find the right ones, I am sure BU would never be able to have that much turnover in such a short time, we do need to recruit at leat 2 more for next season.
 
Tom Crean can coach, period.

Indiana was in a big-time hole. I still don't think he has them back yet, but they are getting closer.

Crean has a little advantage now having a bunch of experience...
sure he has a 5-Star center who is a freshman, but eight other players logging the most minutes are all quite experienced and have played a lot of games.
Kentucky, meanwhile, plays FOUR freshman among their top 8 players and three more who are just 2nd year players
This was a great win for IU but the Hoosiers have still played only one game outside their home state, and only has to leave their home state twice again between now and Jan. 15th!!!

it will be a two-and-a-half-week stretch from 1/15 thru 2/4 when they play six of seven on the road that may kill them and knock them out of contention for the NCAA Tourney that they are now so hopeful of...

OK. Please explain then. How exactly is the Crean versus Ford situation similar?

Guy takes over for a fired coach who was not winning enough games, in a program trending downward with very little talent left on the roster and a messed up scholarship situation that hurts the chances of a quick turnaround.
