I'd have to agree with Cavanagh. There hasn't been much good basketball in Bloomington outside of 02 and 12-13 maybe 15-16
Not to the tier IU has been sold as As a kid I witnessed the 3 titles Albeit I don't remember '76 all that much I was 4 ...
we haven't been a force to reckon with other than the Zeller/Oladipo years Hell 2002 was a fluke in many ways Getting Kent St in that game was lucky We got hot at the right time but we were far from expected to make that run
Coach said he'd become a fan favorite and it looks like he was right. Tough kid and he shoots better than advertised to this point.Admit it, Enright showed out tonight.

Of course the program has been mostly crap for about 30 years but it's completely false to say there hasn't been good basketball. We've had a few really good teams. Not nearly what it should have been of course.
@cavanagh When Leal said "you got to chill" the fans took it to heart. Chilled right out of even showing up. 
But seriously I think you're right about disposable income. If a working dude in Bloomington can afford one or two games a year, this year he's choosing Football.
Given the teams we've played this year, Reed Bailey hasn’t faced anyone a 6'10", 230-lb senior with over 100 career starts shouldn’t be able to match up with. If you want to use that excuse when we play Michigan, Purdue, or Illinois, I’m with you. But not against the opponents we’ve seen so far.
Against these teams, Reed's issue isn’t physical, it’s mental. He plays soft because of his mindset, not his body. He needs to bring more toughness. In the second half, he finally showed he can play that way, but now he has to sustain it. DeVries even mentioned in his postgame presser that Reed shows that toughness in practice; the challenge is carrying it over consistently into games.
Reed Bailey needs to add a little "Enright" to his game.
It will take time to fully purge the stink leftover from the Woodson era (on the heels of a dreadful and unpleasant 4 years of Archie ball).
The ridiculous and forced Woodson hire along with allowing him a 4th year instead of moving on and hiring May or whoever all while Woodson gaslit the fanbase and forced all his crony friends to do the same was just too much.
Its one thing to suffer through bad basketball. There aren't many fanbases who've experienced more of it than IU the past 30 years. Its another to watch terrible, antiquated basketball while the President of the BOT held the program hostage for his unqualified buddy while telling everybody he was doing a fantastic job.
It seems that the administration has finally decided to take both sports seriously and hire proven, qualified head coaches to lead the revenue sports instead of unproven, cheap assistants or those with ties to boosters and trustees.
Hopefully the incompetence is over. It’s more important than ever to matter in sports.
