Hey everyone! With the Austin Peay Invitational this weekend, DeAntae and I would like to pose a few questions for the devoted followers of the team (answer any or all you feel like): 1) What do you hope to see different in this weekend's games compared to the Big Ten/Big East Challenge? 2) What player(s) do you feel will have a breakout weekend in Tennessee? 3) What are your expectations for the team going into this weekend? Thanks and we look forward to hearing your answers.
All season long the "experts" have been talking about the great parity in the Big Ten. Generally I would agree, but I was also a bit disappointed by the scores on Thursday night.

IU coach Tom Crean has cited the youth of the Hoosiers as reason for the unpredictability they show from game to game. But Wednesday night IU radically changed in the middle of the first half. Northwestern (15-11, 6-9) notched its first ever victory in Assembly Hall, dominating IU (6-21, 1-14) 75-53. While always fighting to prevent it, Crean said he has dreaded a performance like Wednesdays. "I'll never accept it and I never have," Crean said.
Tommorow, it all begins. The excitement. The buildup. The anticipation. The competition. It's on-track training time. Little 500 riders will begin practicing tomorrow, weather permitting.
For years, the Hoosiers bullied Northwestern every time they came to Assembly Hall. On Wednesday night, they got their revenge.

Believe it or not, it's been 24 years today since Bobby Knight chucked a chair across Branch McCracken Court during a game against Purdue. I attended the infamous Ted Valentine game as a kid, but have no recollection of the chair-throwing incident, as it took place two years before my birth. Do any of our (ahem) older readers recall this memorable date 24 years ago?
Hey folks, Good morning, and yes, that is correct, and our friend Chris Howell has the story and pictures at the Hoosier Scoop.
Action at the track continues this week as Rookie week concludes and veterans begin their first on-track practice Thursday. When the vets take to the track, there will be one notable rider missing.
