Plug for my cousin's husband's book: Soundtrack of Silence: Love, Loss and a Playlist for Life. His name is Matt Hay -- he attended IU and is still a very huge IU basketball fan. It's a biography about his time at IU as he developed neurofibromatosis 2, a condition which caused tumors to grow on the nerves that transmit sound to his brain. It is being optioned into a movie -- when it was first pitched as a movie, Channing Tatum was set to take the role as Matt but it was delayed and the production company decided that it should be released first as a biography and then as a film, so Tatum likely is too old to play the part at this point I would think. -

IU Basketball News and Notes
Redcamaro and one other reacted to str8baller for a post in a topic
Lol… I remember going to a local alumni event when he was first hired and he was making the rounds. I took my father who knows a little something about sales having done it for several decades at a F400 company. Afterwards I remember my dad saying, “I have no idea if he can coach basketball but he has a future in sales if he wants it.” I throw Crean in with Davis: maddening when they’re the coach which makes them hard to like in the moment. But as more time passes I can’t help but sort of like them as people. It’s not a sin to take on a job bigger than you and come up a little short. Crean specifically seems like he still supports the program to a degree. -

Also the comps to Jokic and Embiid need to stop. Jokic js a generational passer who had a unique background that led to that skill set, as well as his borderline elite hands on defense. Embiid is a physical marvel. Dude is a freak athletically for his size. Edey comps to a better Boban. Dudes that take 3 plus years jn college don’t become stars in the league or anything but role players. It’s not because NIL either. They just simply aren’t good enough -

No he isn’t. That’s just a statement. It’s not based on anything. Dude is slow and unathletic. He can’t shoot. He is a mid passer even with gravity. He js a career back up level player -

The solution is PAYING for a real Tier 1 coach and doing said at the right time. Playing musical coaches is not a winning formula long term. Sent from my SM-S906U using BtownBanners mobile app -

Dude Edey is gonna get eaten alive in pnr and with the pace. Taking all tbag space away from Wemby would be a horrible mistake That lineup is the worst in starting 5 even with Wemby Taking Edey wjth a top 10 pick js a waste even in a trash draft -

I would think so. Otherwise, she's not putting them in a very good position to find a replacement. -

I loved watching this kid in high school. Even to my untrained eye he was a baller. Alex Karaban caught fire in the 3-point star shooting drill, hitting 14 straight 3s. Made 21/25 total for by far the best figure so far at the NBA draft combine. Also tops in off the dribble shooting. -

An injury away from trying to claim the 5 spot on a team with title aspirations. -
1 pointWinning. Playing on a national stage. Regularly playing in front of 17,000 people. Practicing against high-level players. Connections to a career after college basketball (such as overseas teams). NIL. So many good reasons.

Nice background story https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/family-and-hard-work-helped-shay-ciezki-succeed-at-penn-state-and-brought-her-to-indiana-womens-basketball/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR1o94vZFK4bOKuopqZ38NU65KPXVn7GFYzBwOvOekHnBtW3Ohbf_5xErBM_aem_AYexgcpX3l7SRN6EaOM-pqAvyo0MAn2fzTc4RcTR4rMSZ5M5Ad0nERER9weL4xUeIZoN6DHG3pcjj1PYLi-yb7eO -

I don't see anyway possible you could put Archie above Mike Davis. Or even Mike Woodson above Davis. Davis still won a Big Ten championship, made a final four and made an NCAA tourney(something Archie was completely incapable of doing). -
