After watching his team lose their tenth game in eleven tries, Indiana University head basketball coach Archie Miller has apparently seen enough. A recurring theme throughout this miserable six week stretch for Indiana has been an overall lack of tenacity and resilience up and down the Hoosier roster. It appears to have come to a head in Minneapolis on Saturday.  In his post game interview after a 84-63 loss to Minnesota, Miller didn’t hold back on his frustration with this Hoosier team. “For us, we didn’t play with the urgency, toughness, and fight that we need on the road this…

Stop us if you have heard this one before.  Indiana just needs to get a win. Trouble is, so does Minnesota.  While Indiana has lost 9 of 10, the Gophers have lost 7 of 11.  Neither team can afford another loss at this time of year — but someone will be walking off the Williams Arena floor on Saturday afternoon with just that. IU is still firmly in the NCAA Tournament hunt, and a win over Minnesota would provide another quality win to further bolster that resume. But it won’t be easy.  The Gophers have lost just twice all year…

After losing 9 of 10 games and sitting at 13-11 overall and 4-9 in Big Ten play, you may scoff at the idea that Indiana is still in the running for an at large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Strange as it may seem, the Hoosiers are indeed on the NCAA bubble as it stands right now.  According to ESPN analyst Joe Lunardi’s latest bracketology, Indiana is listed as part of the “last four IN.” How is that possible, you ask? The parallel for Indiana is last year’s Oklahoma team that at one point was a top 10 team but…
