Yeah, the program is slightly worse off from 2000, but I could've predicted it in 1999, Davis or no, that this was the direction it was headed.

('04 grad, btw, not that it matters.

Wow I really have to disagree with this statement. Indiana is a top 10 program, period. They should expect better than these last few seasons.
