Wait and see…

Haven’t read the whole thread, but from what I have read it sounds like both sides are a little extreme.

With Butler back 100% healthy we have a shot a getting a win or two in the NCAA tourney.

Without Butler back and 100%, we will struggle and likely lose in the first round.

Highly unlikely this team makes it passed the second weekend regardless. This team doesn’t seem built for a deep run in the tourney.

That’s okay for Year One.

Pope’s got four more years to show me some progress before I start putting “For Sale” signs in his yard. LOL!

Anyone with basic common sense understands we are a top 10 team with Butler. Just got to get him back. All the whining and crying accomplishes nothing but making you look like a whiny b*tch.

I’ve not seen the extreme from the positive side in this thread. I do not foresee this team making it past the sweet 16, but I do see a healthy version winning 2-4 combined NCAA and SEC tournament games, which would be one hell of a first year for Pope after the last 5 years.

Since 2019 man they have more tourney wins than we do. Over the broad scale Kentucky isn’t IU. But the last 6 years we are on a very similar path to them.

They have one tourney win under Woodson, I don’t remember any under Archie are you sure about that?

Yeah they got a play in win against Wyoming and a win in 2022

How is this your takeaway after tonight. What type of mushrooms are you on tonight?

We get it, you hope we don't win another game

Yeah man I hate Kentucky. The dumbest damn reply you can have. I like Kentucky, but will admit when they aren’t good enough

Looks like some people needed to step away last night and stay away for a couple of days.

I’m tryin’ to do you a favor. You’re melting down. Normally, that’s amusing to watch but in your case, it’s sad.

Even sadder was him saying he had zero respect for old people. When asked if that was true, he basically said "you heard me".

Saw where someone said he used to post as ruppsrunt and got banned? Doesn't matter. He/she makes this forum uninhabitable.

Not a single souls has accused me of being Ruppsrunt, idk who that is. So it’s just you. And for the 500th time, the onto only person I don’t like is you, and one other one. You’ll hide when it doesn’t suit you, but when it’s looking good your hear getting the shots off.

Pope will end year one with more postseason victories (NCAA and SEC) than Cal did the last 5 years combined, assuming that Butler comes back. It’s understandable to be frustrated right now, but this is going to end up being a successful year one for Pope when it’s all said and done.

Not only did I like your post but I put everybody that responded with a laughter emoji on my ignore list(When anybody responds to a serious or optimistic post with laughter I consider them trolls or aholes and no longer wish to hear any of their opinions.).

Put the pipe down you moron. Indiana hasn't been to the Elite 8 in 22 years. We have been there 9 times in the past 20 tournaments. There are dozens of other similar statistics. "Becoming Indiana basketball" is a lot more than just the past 6 years. You are as stupid as Dakich. Congrats.

Just put him on ignore like I did and you will enjoy the board more for not seeing his posts.
