Geoff and Ben are back from a few weeks off to discuss the current state of the IUBB transfer portal and other various musings.

Indiana welcome Darian DeVries as its 31st Head Basketball Coach. The guys discuss the impact, portal and overall fit at IU.

Indiana with an all too familiar performance as they drop a pivotal game that controls their NCAA Tournament hopes 72-59. This was a game Indiana could win, and just quite frankly didn't show up. Do they deserve to get in? Not up to them now. Lots of chatter in the IU coaching search. Geoff goes it alone as Ben celebrates his birthday. We will be back live Sunday night to discuss whether IU made it or not.

IU staved off a tough first half to beat Ohio State 66-60 moving them to 19-12 (10-10) on the year. Most prognosticators have the Hoosiers at least in Dayton at this point. A win against Oregon on Thursday in Indy would go a long way towards securing a bid and avoiding the first four altogether. Also, the coaching search seems to be narrowing. Who are the key names to watch for? We discuss.

Indiana loses a tough one down the stretch that got away from them with Oregon finishing the game on a 10-0 run. Mike Woodson was not happy with the officiating, and he made that clear with a profanity laced presser post-game (which I appreciate). Indiana moves to 18-12 (9-10) on the year. They now face Ohio State Saturday in Mike Woodson's last game at Assembly Hall. This is a DeFacto elimination chamber match for an NCAA berth. We discuss.

Indiana dominated Washington start to finish Saturday night to move to 18-11 (9-9) on the season. Malik Reneau and Luke Goode carried the Hoosiers offensively while the team continued its strong team defense. This one was never really in doubt. Oregon is a massive opportunity on Tuesday night. Oh, and how about those Black Uniforms! We discuss.

IU fought through a tough night at the FT line to get hot late making 6 consecutive 3's on the way to a must win game against Penn State 83-78. IU found out Malik Reneau was out with illness and had to play a man short. They had just enough to hang on and give themselves an opportunity to still make the NCAA tourney. IU moves to 17-11 (8-9) on the year. At Washington up next Saturday at 6ET.

Indiana uses a 48-18 2nd half to completely dismantle Purdue with the best defensive effort of the Mike Woodson era. #iubb moves to 16-11 (7-9) to keep themselves in the conversation for an NCAA tournament berth. Lots of work to do, but an exciting day for Hoosier fans. We discuss that and so much more!

The guy joined Often Daunted to talk about the upcoming coaching search, and what the Indiana job means. Is Indiana still an elite job? Who will want the job? Who do we want? We discuss.

IU loses a heartbreaker to UCLA 72-68 in a game they pretty much had to win. They drop to 15-11 (6-9 B1G) and are running out of chances to turn this around. Is there still a path? We discuss that and the obligatory new coach options.
