Joe Lunardi Fires Perfect Response at Indiana's Archie Miller With 'Sesame Street' Troll
By Michael Luciano
Archie Miller is losing the trust of the Indiana faithful following another up-and-down season in Bloomington. The Hoosiers' recent dip in form doesn't seem to be the biggest thing on his mind at the moment, however. Rather, Miller seems obsessed with commenting about he hates the "Bracketology" programming on ESPN in which Joe Lunardi outlines what he thinks the NCAA Tournament's field of 68 teams will look like this season.
Miller compared the whole thing to "Sesame Street," and that little barb inspired Lunardi to get in a little dig at Miller for not being a huge fan of the show.
Chef kiss stuff right there from Joey Brackets.
While Lunardi put IU in his latest "Last Four In," Miller's group is far from a lock to make it into the Big Dance. The Hoosiers are 19-12 this year, but they could face an uphill climb to make it into the tournament given their 9-11 conference record.
Miller needs to worry about making a run in the Big Ten Tournament, not what an ESPN talking head has to say.
Miller might not be a fan of Lunardi, and that distaste is almost certainly fueled by the fact that he doesn't think Indiana is a slam dunk to make the tournament. Given how poor they have played in the Big Ten, Lunardi might actually have been treating Miller and the Hoosiers pretty charitably.
