O-3 vs IUPUI since they joined the HL. That needs to change ASAP.
The Jaguars don't have much of a home court advantage from an atmosphere perspective yet they are tough at home. Also, they have experience in their lineup and never seem to be out of game no matter the score.
Need to back up success with on Friday with another W.

Everyone just got a huge gift with Cleveland st winning.
This gives tomorrow’s game even more meaning. A win means gb is in great shape to win conference. They beat Wright St and then play NKU at home at noon next Saturday . Wright st then plays UWM at six. We all will have to become Panther fans!
Yesterday was a huge win. This team has had two improbable wins this year. Didn’t this team start hitting their stride at the end of the year in 2016 too? It would be something if history repeats itself. I’ve been hard on the team this year and Linc but if they can somehow win the conference and guarantee themselves an NIT bid I will be a believer in Linc again.
With how the season is ending I am hopeful for next year but losing Sandy is gonna be huge. He can take over games when he wants to; for whatever reason he chooses not to every game. We need a possessed Sandy these last 3 games and in the conference tourney to have any chance. I would consider an NIT bid a hugely successful season as oddly as it sounds given how it started.

I decided to use up my seven day free trial on this game. Don’t make me regret it!

Typical luck so far for the Phoenix. Weatherford has only hit 5 threes all year and so far in this game he has 4. grrrrrrrrrrr

His shot looks good but I understand why GB is leaving him open.

Too many second chances have been given to IUPUI. Going to be tough to come out on top.

UWGB now 0 - 4 against IUPUI since the Jags joined the Horizon League. Thanks troll we know that. Sad part is IUPUI is not a good team at all and gb was clearly the better team the first 32 mins. Unfortunately gb stopped rebounding and attacking the basket the last 8 mins of the game and reverting to their standing around hero ball play that never works. At least this game was competitive something we haven’t seen all year on the road for the most part. Sucks cause everything was falling into place for us to backdoor a conference title. Now just gotta probably spilt the next two games to get a home game. I’d almost rather play wright st in the semis than nku so now hoping to get a four seed now.

We were competitive on the road which means I am a happy camper. Were absolutely killed on the offensive glass today which has been normal against IUPUI.
I am curious why they stopped doubling down on Ishmael at the end of the game. It seemed to be working and then they just stopped.
I dont care if its the 3 or 4 seed, just get a home game at the Resch. The tournament is such a crap shoot right now therefore literally anybody can win this thing on a neutral court.
Go Phoenix!

Well the team has a tough challenge in front of it to get that home game.
The last 25% of the game did not look like the first 75% of the game.
Handling success has never been a GB thing. Beat Wisconsin, lose to Oakland the next game. This loss hurts all the same.

Your program sucks dude. They couldn’t even get 2000 people for senior day which is pathetic. Wow you swept a school that has 3/4 the budget you do congrats! GB at least has a chance to win the tourney. IUPUI has zero cause their program doesn’t understand what success is or means. Coming on this site to troll about your meaningless wins over GB is all you got.

I am a supporter of IUPUI - but I went to IU Bloomington. My school has won 5 NCAA Championships. I was a freshman at IU in 1981 when they beat North Carolina for their 4th championship. In 1987 when they won their 5th NCAA championship with Keith Smart hitting the winning last second shot to beat Syracuse 74 - 73, I was in the Super Dome in New Orleans to see them win. I live in Indianapolis and enjoy cheering for IU, Butler and like to see IUPUI do well also.
When I started looking at Horizon League fan forums recently, I noticed several UWGB people posting over the last few years about how annoyed they were that the Horizon League is getting stuck with IUPUI joining the League. That is one of the reasons I post here - to remind UWGB people that - if they think IUPUI sucks - well, it’s pretty funny because this bad IUPUI team keeps beating UWGB. If UWGB fans are going to bash a team for being bad - at least they should bash a team that doesn’t keep beating their own school. It only means their own school must really suck (or they simply don’t really know much about basketball). Sorry - but definitely true.
Actually - it was a good game earlier today. Both teams shot pretty well and played hard. IUPUI was just able to take control down the stretch - and pull out another win.

There is not a single fan base in the Horizon League that wanted IUPUI in the league so feel free to post on all of the message boards.
For a basketball fan you will understand this distinction. Green Bay has a good program and currently an average at best team. IUPUI has an average at best team and a below average program at best.
I will gladly come discuss on the IUPUI board or other social media outlets...oh wait there isn't any because nobody cares about IUPUI basketball which is why fan bases rip on your team. IUPUI has so much work to do to become relevant on the hardwood, I doubt they will pull it off.
Enjoy the 0-4 headstart but please make a point to drop by after a loss in the future as well. That is the standard to go from a troll to actual basketball fan base banter from my perspective.

The inconsistency of this team is maddening. It's amazing that this team is in 3rd place right now......but have to play the top 2 teams in the HL this week. We shall see what happens. Maybe we lose to WSU, but blow out NKU?
