Most fans who lose a game like my Hoosiers like to be classless and not give credit where credit is due. If I could have gone into the locker room your players resided in after the game I would have told them they will win the National Championship if they play with that type of determination and effort.
That zone was the best I have ever seen and Coach B. has done a wonderful job with your team. Your team played like a team that was ready for anything tonight and that type of preparation must be respected by the world. The best thing about your zone is how far is comes out on the floor and it will be something I hope to simulate with a youth league team this summer. Coach B. is a true Hall of Fame coach that does not need to retire and if the NCAA does not get off his butt it will continue to piss me off.
I hope that Coach Crean is able to be critical with himself because he made some mistakes that I am still scratching my head about in this game. I could not understand why he replaced Hulls with Yogi at the 17:00 mark of the second half. Yogi just has not learned how to properly play in half court sets yet. I have no idea why we didn't go big because we had the horses and no pressure was applied in the game.
Thus, negating the need for a point guard for full court pressure in the game. Furthermore, our substitution pattern was a problem and it seems that no one can talk Coach Crean out of doing what he thinks is right. Hence, hopefully someone is able to get in his ear and convince him that he is his own worst enemy.
Also, I thought that I would add a little note about our former commit Ron "Buss" Patterson that will play for Syracuse next season. He is a heck of a player and his effort will never be questioned on the floor. When he was at IU over the summer many people will tell you that IU had to get him out to solve the scholarship situation and that simply was not true. A player had already given up his scholarship to make the numbers balance out. He was on a faculty sponsored admission ticket at IU that required he make a 2.0 GPA and he had a few problems in general over the summer that sealed his fate at IU. Please know that I am happy he will be at a blue blood program in the Fall of 2013.
Syracuse 2013 National Champions has a nice ring to it and hopefully someone offers to send me some Syracuse Apparel soon! Win with class and lose with class and your program will be fortunate soon enough right?
