Who knows what goes on behind closed doors, but I would like to see Tom Crean get upset after one of his players decides to simply throw the ball to the other team for the sixth time that night. I would like to see some repercussions after another guard simply dribbles off his leg for his fifth turnover of the night.
By all accounts, Crean is a good man and a good coach who will be able to show his stuff at a higher level when these current players get more experience, and when some more talented players arrive next year. I do believe in him, and think in time, the Hoosiers will be back where they belong, at the top of the Big Ten.
But as for this year, the record is about what I thought it would be, but I have to say I am disappointed in the lack of progress shown by these players and the team as a whole. I know I will get some flak, and some will say I am not a true fan, but other than senior Kyle Taber, who on this team could you honestly say is getting better as the season has rolled along?
Sure, some of that could be attributed to hitting the freshman wall, but this team should be coming out with a chip on their shoulder. Instead, it seems as if they are rolling over, content to play their pre-ordained role as Big Ten doormat.
It is a role they seemed to have perfected as the season has gone on. Hopefully, they can salvage some measure of respect over the last few games and perhaps in the Big Ten tourney. But from what I have seen, this season has been a disaster far beyond what the pathetic record will indicate.
