And Indiana State hammered Indiana. What has happened to that once proud program?

Wake lost to Liberty last night. Looks like a long year in WS.

They did win the Big Ten two years ago. Breaking in a new coach so there might be some growing pains.

But truthfully, they haven't really been a national top-tier program in over 20 years. Their decline started while Knight was still there, then they made the ill-fated Mike Davis hire, then Kelvin Sampson landed them on probation that wound up basically leaving them with no players left.

Crean was a pretty good choice to restore them to respectability but not really the guy to get them back where their fans think they belong.
