    You just made the list… of other old guys that I can now beat in full court hoops. Have a close friend that I saw for the Wisky football weekend; one month post knee replacement and he’s already quite a bit better than pre-replacement.

    My wife had a knee replacement I 2016. A friend had one done quite recently and the trajectory of their respective recoveries were light years apart. Praying that all goes well, and that the timing works out for Championship week and the NCAAT.

    Under the heading of making lemons into lemonade, looks like I may need to get a knee replaced. Trying my level best to arrange to get it done the last week of the regular season and then taking a leave through Championship week and the tournament. Textbook best case scenario.

    Loudest AH game I’ve ever been to was a mini series game.

    I doubt the crowd is quiet. It’s the first game of the mini series. That packs usually doesn’t have a decent non conference game, but when it does the crowd is usually pretty good.

    Talked to my son and grandson today. Caleb's next surgery is December 1. He has 6 knee ligaments in play. ACL and MPFL ligaments are torn through and will require complete reconstruction. MCL and PCL were torn to some extent in the original evaluation, and depending if/how they've progress may require attention. The LCL was sprained or strained and will require inspection and possible treatment and the transverse ligament will require evaluation and possible work. Additionally, the femur looks to be healed, though we're still waiting on confirmation about the growth plate. The tibia micro fractures looked good on recent x-rays. They will also have to evaluate the condition of the various menisci and take any necessary repairs on them. Of course to repair/reconstruct these ligaments will require harvesting ligaments and tissue from other areas of his body - possibly the hamstring and quads. All in all, he's looking at a major reconstruction of his knee and a pretty formidable recovery. Because of the amount of work to be done, the doctor is unclear as to whether he can do the job in a single surgery or if it will require multiple surgeries. Please keep him in your prayers. His spirits are up and he's more than willing to tackle the recovery. He's a tough kid, but unfortunately, this happening at the start of his junior year in HS pretty much means the end of his football career, and puts his baseball future in jeopardy.

    Doubtful. Students are gone. I see a quiet crowd and a loss.

    Yeah and I saw somewhere a total point prediction of 157, though that site had IU a 8.5 favorite. I think it's going to be a lot closer, but hope that line holds

    Shaheen Holloway has Seton Hall looking pretty good in Maui. They beat #23 NC State 85-74. First unranked team to beat a T25 opponent this season.

    Line opens at IU -7.5. That’s on BetOnline, nothing on FanDuel, DK, etc. yet. Encouraging I suppose.

    Haggerty, I believe, is the top scorer in the nation, and as a team KSU scores in the 90s and efficiently, with their lowest score being I think 84 and averaging 93 ppg - a high output 3-point shooting team. This is going to be tough, tough game and should be a battle of high scoring offenses. Wish it wasn't immediately before the Thanksgiving break, but regardless our guys are going to have to come back scoring and playing with ball movement, energy, and accuracy the way they were playing before the last two games, and slowing Haggerty down while avoiding foul trouble will be a key.

    Gotta contain haggerty and bashir without getting in foul trouble. A lot easier said than done but very do-able. This feels like the annual “big” win IUBB gets at home early every year.

    Creighton has cut Baylors lead to 1 with 13 to go. Really good game. I’ve said it before but love the fact TNT and Tru TV are doing regular season games this year instead of just the ncaa tourney.
