Great loss

I think IU's team might want to make a reservation at a Rick Mount shooting clinic.

Ehh... SEC might be deeper. Definitely better at the top overall with Alabama, Kentucky, Auburn, Florida and Texas A&M.

Not.
But coming from Gloomington, understandable.

P

No team is in a place, even UConn, Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, to go "man that 20 point loss was a great loss." Numbers matter, especially in the world of the NET.

Big wins over bad/good teams= good
Any win over a good team= good
Close wins over bad teams= bad
Big losses to any team= bad

This didn't age well.

Now, that we know you are a typical IU fan with zero substance to bring....find your way home.

You just don't know how basketball works or any damn sport. You will lose games and you adjust, get better, figure out what a player needs to do or what position a player is a better fit for your system.

What I see from you and your knowledge is the typical IU fan. We are IU, we will pay for players and we will assume that we will be good.

Purdue, recruits players to the system, makes players accountable and just keeps winning.

Yea you will lose games. But this thing called the NET exist and it matters. And losing by 20 is never good. No matter what you're playing. Especially in the non conference. From a perception standpoint, also not good to lose by 20. Sure you can learn things and get better but that doesn't turn it into a great loss or even a good loss. It's still a bad loss to learn from. If your team has a mindset of "losing by 20 is a great loss" then that team is lost. I don't think Painter was in the locker room saying "great loss guys. We're gonna learn a lot from this."
