I would much rather start a series with Illinois moving forward than to start playing Indiana again. Why not rotate series with Big 10 teams, Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue? All would be fun home-and-home series. Nothing about playing Indiana again excites me.
College basketball isnt all that exciting anymore. I'm sure those stories about IU fans the last time y'all went to Btown are exaggerated. I will say though the week leading to that game there was a buzz and everyone was talking about it. It was just a weird week

I wish we wouldn't lock ourselves in. Stay flexible. Played Houston with Akeem. Navy with David Robinson. Tv setup a Ralph Sampson vs Patrick Ewing matchup.

I like what we did with Gonzaga, but just make it two years.
Let's play Illinois while they're good.
Let's play Houston or Texas tech.
Let's play Drake or Creighton Iowa State
Arizona, oregon, or San Diego state
Drop the classics. Drop the challenges. We be in control.
And in two years, we look around and pick other good teams outside the box.

The actual move is to schedule one game at the United Center and a return game in Indianapolis to mutually troll IU. šŸ¤šŸ»
