Rex Hudler Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 (edited) This article really illustrates that Davis just does not get it. It's sad really that he isn't smart enough to understand, especially having played at Alabama where it is this bad (or worse) from football fans. More Whining from Davis An excerpt "When we played Michigan State on the road, they were desperate, but not one time did we feel like their fans weren't supporting their players," Davis said Monday. "Even Minnesota was 0-6 and not one possession did I feel like (their crowd) was not into the game, and they weren't pulling for their team. "This expectation thing when you're one game out of first place and ranked in the country, it doesn't add up to me. If it makes sense to anybody else, I hope they will explain it to me."

Its a damn shame that the Salukis only had Rolen Roberts for one year of eligibility. He was a beast in 01. He was eating up Emeka Okafor alive in that sweet 16 game(too bad Kent Williams forgot his shot at home throughout the tournament:( ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already recruited two fairly talented PG's in the past two years in Curry and Walker. They also are seriously out-classed in the Big East. They just don't have the wing players or big men to hang with the good teams, and only Clarke and Chandler really have any hope. Now if he were to play for the Illini...

I saw Ohio in a loss at NIU a few weeks ago in person, and Fears seemed frusterated and not interested, so this doesn't surprise me. Ohio was a favorite to win the MAC, but have underachieved quite a bit, and Fears issues is probably reason #1 why. I have heard Fears is all but a lock to end up at DePaul, that he wants to be back close to home and he has met and likes Coach Wainwright. DePaul has a couple young guards, and Will Walker of Bolingbrook will be coming in next year, but Fears has enough talent to at least see significant playing time and I wish him the best. He actually decided to transfer after being back here for a family members funeral, so it's a bit of a sad story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think Freeman will be a really really good player by his junior year though, but its gonna be a rough season next year unless some guys come out of nowhere. That said Alex Thompson and Freeman are two guys Alford seems to rave about and thinks will do big things next year. Freeman the fresh and Thompson the Sophmore. Plus we got Haluska coming back. I still don't see a way they could possibly compete for anything but the middle of the pack (at best) next year. But I'm just going to enjoy this year.

Rex Hudler Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Interesting perspective on IU today from the Louisville Courier-Journal: Coach should blame himself, not IU's fans The beginning... Mike Davis has reviewed the videotapes and uncovered the reasons the Indiana University men's basketball team could not score against Minnesota, could not defend against Wisconsin and could not win the games it needed to win to remain a fearsome force in the Big Ten Conference. IU fans are the reason. Too negative. Too committed to his failure. If pushed, I suspect Davis would say the fans are doing a miserable job of screening and rebounding, too.
