As the Indiana basketball team left Indianapolis on Saturday afternoon, it was difficult to ignore the similarities to this same point in the season last year. A year ago it was true freshman Rob Phinisee at the microphone discussing his late game heroics in a win against Butler.  This year, it was true freshman Armaan Franklin. Last year Indiana moved to 9-2 after that Crossroads Classic win.  This year the Hoosiers have moved to 11-1.  An optimist sees good records.  A pessimist can have legitimate questions both then and now regarding the way the Hoosiers are winning. A year ago,…

Indiana dug an early hole against UCLA, and they could never quite find their way out. Struggling from the field against a stifling Bruin defense, the Hoosiers fell behind 18-4 early in the second quarter.  IU made just 2-of-16 shots from the field in the first quarter, and shot just 23.3 percent for the first half as the Hoosiers struggled with UCLA’s length in the halfcourt. Playing in front of an energized crowd of 5,272 at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in Bloomington, IU mounted several rallies against the No. 10 Bruins.  Indiana pulled to within one point at 46-45 early…

After leading by as much as 17 in the second half, the Hoosiers suddenly found themselves down five with less than four minutes remaining in the game on Saturday against Notre Dame in Indianapolis. But IU battled back when the going got tough. And an unheralded freshman rose to the occasion. Indianapolis product Armaan Franklin came into Saturday’s contest having made just 4-of-27 three-point attempts on the season. He made four more against the Fighting Irish, including a pair in the game’s final three minutes to…
