A team full of RMK trained players supercharged by Jeffries and were no longer worried about making mistakes. But in the very last game the needed a game coach and didn’t have one.
Was a really good, fun, self-coached team. Combo of NBA talent and hard-working college players . You couldn’t guard Hornsby, Fife, & Coverdale at the same time. One of em was bound to burn you every time down the floor.
This was in immensely good Illinois team - they were Final 4 quality. NOBODY expected a blowout. I don't know if an IU team has ever played better against such a good opponent.
@phen0men0n you really dont wanna go here . purdue was topped by butler and notre dame last year for national attention. if iu puts good product on floor now u go to 4th most interesting program n state. win a big game
All I can say is.............did you see last night1-27-11? Do you remember what coach K said after his last visit to Bloomington? Do you remember Vital's comments? Been to Assembly hall when the toiletmakers were there a few times, I have attended MANY games there, AIN'T NO PLACE LIKE IT
There were many IU teams of the past that had great shooters, but I don't think there has ever been an IU team that had so many great shooters that could score 20 points on any given night by shooting threes. Fife, Moye, Coverdale, Hornsby, Odle could all bury you. I remember the tournament game against Oklahoma State that year and how they did about the same thing to them on their way to the championship game. That was a great team.
I remember watching the UCONN @ ARIZONA game while this was on. Emeka Okafor blocked the potential game winning shot. Wow this is a shooting display Indiana put on. Im not a hoosiers fan, however I do like Tom Crean alot so best of luck.

Self-coached my ass. You can have all the respect for Knight but not belittle Mike Davis' accomplishment that year.
Bill Self got his revenge against Indiana this past weekend.
KICKIN N SCREAMIN AND YELLIN OHHH HOW I LOVE IT¡!!!!!! CRAZY 🤪🤪🤪 INDIANA!!!!!!
I cannot believe how loud and raucous and crazy and wild Assembly Hall is during this game. Goodness Gracious.
As The Old Man in A Christmas Story proclaimed: "It's Indescribably Beautiful!"
Newton's dunk sends chills down the spine.
RIP Andy
Show the game when this same team came to Champaign and got blasted by 30

Poor Bill Self! But this was awesome!
Prodigy
This is what happens when you have shooter combined with aggressive inside play.

I like the game the year after that: Illinois 80-Indiana 54
Raftery is the best !
