Yep! 8-38 from 3 for Indy. We got lucky they had a bad night.Clearly the Indy State win was more of the Sycs overlooking us and not us taking the next step.
So f’ing maddening.

We have been so close. But- that’s life! I have met some great friends along the way- and they are priceless!Don't even remember the last time we went dancing since I was 6 the last time we did. Get 75% of this group of bums off my team
Depends on the offense we are running. If we run a 3 guard offense johnny is fine. With who we have right now- we are fine!A 5’11” (probably 5’9) 3?
This. I’m disappointed in the loss. I’m more disappointed a “fan” calls our players “bums”. Completely unacceptable and an awful representation of our fan base.Poor basketball ok. Bums? Get lost.
100%! Yet we have to come to the reality of...we lost our last 2 games - to 2 teams - who had lost 18 consecutive games combined. We beat a top 25 team....we lose last 2 to an 18 game losing streak. Maddening. I guess we'll know in 6 months who's with us for next year. That's a long freakin time. Later doods.This. I’m disappointed in the loss.

Do you think Pedon will make major roster moves and have some difficult conversations with guys that could return? Or do you think he just replaces a couple of seniors and most of this roster is intact next season?I said it the entire season. We have one of the worst sets of guards and wings for our level that we’ve seen in ages at Illinois State. We are limited athletically. We aren’t strong. We are poorly coached. We have no players with the skill set to do multiple things at once. Any type of strength, athleticism, or ball pressure completely rattles us. We didn’t have an All-MVC player. We ended our year against Evansville trailing for 40:00. The roster needs an overhaul and we need talent, size, athleticism, and most of all… skill. We have to enter next season with better basketball players or it’s just going to be more of the same. Painful.
Joe Petrakis had at least 1 D1 option after he left here. He hasn’t done much last I checked at WIU, but he did staybD1. Considering some teams in the Summit, OVC, Horizon, and Chicago State, the opportunity is there.Do you think Pedon will make major roster moves and have some difficult conversations with guys that could return?

I dont see a lot of these players that could return having other options other than staying at isu if they wanted to continue playing D1 basketball.
I am done!!! 50 years of watching ISU and the teams are getting worse every year. We suck!!!
So you noticed the smart fouling on their part tooGetting out coached seems to be the new norm here.
I don’t think Pedon should care if they have D1 options. If he likes his job he will make major roster moves.Do you think Pedon will make major roster moves and have some difficult conversations with guys that could return?

Not to jump on your rant but it’s beyond me that whether it’s a business decision or not that State Farm has basically no interest. They could single handedly make us relevant and have a good local team to entertain clients with etc. Especially in the NIL era but choose not to. I don’t even think it would dip into their chiefs budget.ISU is a total sh*t show… We haven’t had a permanent President or an AD in over a year. Our men’s basketball program is in shambles. Can’t support anymore.
If the roster returns basically intact the results are likely the same and he won’t be here much longer. You have to turn over at least half the roster, sucks for the players but Pedons job is to winDo you think Pedon will make major roster moves and have some difficult conversations with guys that could return?

He should be looking at a staff shakeup as well, because this is not working.I don’t think Pedon should care if they have D1 options. If he likes his job he will make major roster moves.
