Curbelo tapped the top of his head a couple of times after driving the baseline, and had a look on his face.
I hope it's not a recurrence.
I noticed that. Don't need a relapse. His conditioning has suffered, obviously. Let's just hope he was showing frustration with mis plays on his part. He is a valuable part but he does need to be under control, not trying to do too much.

Another poster said he needs to quit complaining about every call and just play. I agree, but complaining about being tripped on a fast break and Borowski swallowing the whistle, obvious swallowing of the whistle, I understand it.

They need him to do the job against Purdue when he gets playing time.

Really solid 2nd half and better result than we should ever expect at IU.
The starters, who will all be gone next year, scored 66 of the 74.
We need an experienced transfer scorer who can play wing defense. Otherwise, it's going to be a long learning year short of someone like Goode or Dainja taking a massive leap.

Underwood quoting advanced stats is a real positive.

I actually have nothing to say after this one granted Indiana couldn’t hit the blind side of a barn in the 2nd half…

Not expecting much from Purdue game…If it’s even remotely close it’s a win…That said the tourney is a near lock despite the resume…Didnt think I would be saying that after what I saw earlier this season…

Such a great win.  That was the loudest and most hostile venue we have played in since pre covid. IMO

Couldn't really tell on TV, wish they would turn the crowd noise up like they do on CBS games

Not bad for “arguably a supporting player on an upper level B1G team.”

"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

Realize he’s had an extra year, but he could finish as the 3rd leading scorer all-time for the Illini. 2nd if he tears it up.

And ftr, I didn’t inject Grandison into the discussion. You did. I have no problem with Grandison, he’s a solid player.
You did inject Grandison.
"We lose all 5 starters", and your response was "Where is Curbelo going ? And "He counts as a starter".
Grandison has 32 starts between this year and last. Curbelo has 4.
And I would be happy to see Curbelo being an AA here, winning a national championship and keeping the Puerto Rico pipeline open.
