Is it legitimate to expect a National Championship in 2011? Think about it, probably Michael Gilchrist and a couple of other 5 and 4 star guys. Hopefully Bledsoe will still be around, Jon Hood will be a junior, Darnell Dodson a senior, Darius Miller a senior, if Daniel Orton is still around he will be a junior, if Deandre Liggins doesn’t transfer, he’ll be a senior, and, of course, John Calipari. We will be absolutely stacked, and we will have even more guys from this years class. That is a team that has potential to be absolutely AMAZING.
I agree #3. I wouldn’t expect anything…but if we have that team (plus Stacey Poole, and some combo of Selby, Knight, Leslie as sophomores) then I’d say we be at least as much of a favorite as Kansas is this year or N.C. last year.
And did anyone else think it was weird that they kept saying, “We expect an up-tempo game today.” Why the heck would IU want to run with us under any circumstances? I think they were hoping for more of a half-court game. Just thought it was weird they kept saying that throughout the game.

It’s a good thing when 10:30 of gametime is just us putting the ball in the bucket.
Collinsworth did not commit.
