Coach Beilein and staff have done a great job in in Ann Arbor this season - and have their first top 10 recruiting class coming in this fall. The only bad think was, I actually had to cheer for the team down south yesterday - but it was nothing a good shower would not take care of.
With Brady Hoke and the football team rolling and basketball winning their first BIG 10 title since 1986, it's a great time to be a fan of Big Blue!

Are you talking about the shared title?

IU has nine shared titles....can I assume you would be ok with saying they "kind of" won the Big 10 those years?
And it is not their fault they only went 1-0 against Wisconsin and Ohio State went 2-0....how did IU do against them?

Yes.
It was a good year for Michigan...do I think they are better than Indiana? Absolutely not. If it were not for the worst start for IU in probably the last two years they would have swept Michigan this season.
Indiana was 0-1 against Wisconsin...........because they played Wisconsin AT Wisconsin and UM was 1-0 against Wisconsin because they played AT Michigan in the midst of the longest B10 losing streak in the Bo Ryan era. Michigan was 1-1 against Ohio State.
I get it.....It's been nearly my entire life since UM has last had any reason to spout about being any kind of Big Ten Champs. Enjoy it.....games start up again in a few days.

Their goes HIRG...........trying to find any way to somehow belittle Indiana.
Go find a new coach, as I said a few years ago.....Illinois Sucks....and Bruce Weber Sucks.....as do the players from Illinois that go to Illinois.
You sound like a Huntington fan trying to talk smack to a Bethel fan because St. Francis won a National Title more recently. Get it?

I just realized, had IU not choked away wins against Nebraska (worst loss of the year) and Minnesota they would also have had a share of the B10 Title. Not bad for a team that wasn't supposed to finish over .500 this year in the Big Ten.
Crean....easily...Big Ten Coach of the Year.

If if's and but's were candies and nuts we'd all have a Merry Christmas... Thanks Don Meredith! |

And IF Bruce Weber hadn't taken over Bill Selfs team, he probably would have been fired three years ago.

And if my grandma had nuts.......this is a classic - they had a better record against the conference than IU did and are ranked higher, yet somehow the mythical Hoosiers are somehow definitively better than them? A program that by your standards hasn't won anything of significance since 1993? Congrats on beating Purdue and locking up 5th place and good luck with Penn State |

By the way, did you send a thank you card to Brandon Dawson Max?
Also, it means a lot hearing a Michigan fan say "good job" beating Purdue, I know how hard that is for UM to do. What was that score again....75-61? Ouch

I'd rather lose to them and get a ring then beat them to keep 5th place on lock down!

And I'm sure Max would rather lose to Purdue than lose to Nebraska...
