    What a terrible seeding! The way they've been playing the Hoosiers are out in the first round. Ebanks certainly won't come then.

    All of this if you remember started with Myles Brand. There seems to be a effort by the NCAA to make a point to IU YOU SOULD HAVE NOT HIRED KS!!!! They then prior to the three home games (Wisconsin, MSU and Purdue) to disclose the new investigation. The timing of this disclosure could have been delayed until the season ended. Talk about corrupt - NCAA is at the top of the list. Nothing done with USC - Reggie Bush - No penalties for Florida State's football program. They pick and choose who they want to come after. Your message is loud and strong and thanks again for the number 8 seed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Agree. The NCAA does this to strike fear into other schools and keep them in line. And it works.

    I hope the entire NCAA board gets caught up in the NY prostitute scandal. I'd buy a ticket for that trial any day.

    Ugh...Well at least the committee has graciously decided to end this season early for us and put us out of our misery.

    This is a joke. Complete disrespect. A six seed was as far as we should have dropped. That's freaking ridiculous. I know we've struggled down the stretch, but 14-4 in the Big Ten and an 8 seed?

    Seriously, put me out of my misery right now. An 8 seed. Are you fucking kidding me? We're playing like shit, probably like an 8 seed, but we deserve better than that. Short tourney.

    Complete lack of respect...not that IU deserves any. But whatever, I'd rather have to face UNC than KU or UCLA.

    The fact that Oklahoma got the six seed is infuriating.

    that seeding is right around where iu should be based on their recent performance and the weakness of the big ten

    Shocked. IU was a perpetual top 25 team and now the selection committee is saying they're not one of the best 28 teams in America? I'm shocked. That's a horrifically bad seeding. Purdue should be a 9 or below. They finished behind us in the conference standings and went out at exactly the same point in the conference tourney. I am shocked

    Are you seriously telling me that a buzzer-beating luck shot cost us a better seed? I mean that's just a joke. Where's my torch and pitchfork? Time for a mob riot on the NCAA headquarters.

    I am un-fucking-believably pissed off as well. Wisconsin only a #3 shows a complete lack of respect not only for the Hoosiers, but for the Big Ten. Expect Ohio State to miss the tourney as well. I want to puke after seeing us get hosed. Maybe we'll play better with chips on our shoulders.

    Is it too late for the school to self-impose a post-season ban this year?

    Well, looks like this might be our punishment. At least we won't have to worry about future punishment from them....yeah right.

    We should thumb our nose at them and go ahead with a self-imposed sanction on post tournament play.

    you guys I live in Chapel Hill. This is torture for me. I know this sounds bad but I want them to lose in the first round. The torment I would recieve would be reiculous. I'm really not feeling good right now. Ah this really really sucks. IT's so tough living in ACC country, and these stupid assholes acting cocky when in fact there nothing more than wine and cheese crowds. Man I'm going to save money to move to chicago as soon as possible.

    If I'm north carolina, I'm pissed. Who would you rather play? Indiana or for instance... Miami FL.

    We don't deserve any respect right now. An 8 seed is exactly where we belong and 14-4 in the Big 10 is like saying you won the NBADL title....who effing cares? The Big Ten blows.

    The kids that will come to IU aren't even in high school right now. Everyone can bitch all they want about an 8 seed but these people clearly won't accept that this team and season and progran was sunk back in Feb. The only thing that nakes me mad is that Greenspan is still being paid by the school.

    There was a certain person on this site maybe yesterday or so who said IU would be a 9 seed at best.....mmmmm I wonder who that was.....

    Well by next Saturday let the new coach rumors begin......I don't know much about Arkansas but I know more about IU and obviously the Tourney committee didn't think much of them....damn an 8 seed....

    Thanks Kelvin

    PS I would like to see DJ roast Tyler Hansbourough but we don't match up with them at all.....

    Very disappointing. That is all I can say. At a loss for words. IU, Butler, and ND all got screwed.

    Well Hoosiers---go and play your assess off!!

    Amen to the Butler comment...#9 or #10 in the latest AP top 25...and they get A 7 SEED??? So the hundreds of writers and coaches out there have Butler as a top 10 team and a group of 10-15 ADs get in a room...jerk each other off for a few days...and BAM...BUTLER'S a TOP 28! WOW!

    This is ridiculous. We got screwed. Purdue a 6? Oklahoma a 6? Butler a 7? Miami a 7? USC a 6?? Come on. We might be bad, but we are #23 in the RPI, 25-7 overall, and we got absolutely no respect at all. Bull Shit!

    Didn't Arkansas just beat Tennessee? They will rip IU a new one unless there is a miracle.
