I’m taking this opportunity to wish a happy Father’s Day to all you dads out there in BTN land. Although we all get really into our Hoosiers, it is important to take a moment to and think about what and who we are really here for. I hope everyone has a great day!

GOOOAAALLL! Lloyd gets us started. USA 1-nil, 12'

Jim Callis‏Verified account @jimcallisMLB 6th-rder Andrew Saalfrank signs with @Dbacks for $225k (pick 182 value = $268,200). Indiana LHP, Big Ten pitcher of the year, VG feel for plus curveball, sits 89-90 mph but can reach 94.

@jakeweingarten: Indiana will now host five-star sophomore Aminu Mohammed for an unofficial visit on July 1st, a source told @stockrisers.

Wow. So dominant.

2-nil! Ertz with the header off a Davidson corner. Her 1st career WC goal.

GAMEDAY! We play Chile @ Noon ET on FOX.

Commentary on various players who participated in this weekend's IU Team Camp. All '21s except for a summary on '20 Anthony Leal. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/indiana-basketball-recruiting-2019-team-camp-observations/?fbclid=IwAR0pJn_Ve3M_anv4uIQQgS-sddmUsyhSl2uqiFIhulFDdhfSLD9az05JI4s

It was absolutely Keion’s father that drove him to UK. I don’t feel sorry for Keion. I obviously don’t want to see him get injured. However, I wish him no success. With regards to Matt Cross, I’d love to get him

Indiana, Auburn, Seton Hall, and others have also reached out to Trey Patterson today, he’s also heard from Villanova, Florida, and UConn, he told @Stockrisers. 6' 7" 5-star SF attending Rutgers Preparatory School. Ranked #21 overall and the #7 SF on 247. 247 Rivals

There’s 2 things I hate in this world; people that are intolerant of other cultures and the Dutch. (I will never not use this quote when relevant)

@USWNT: BY THE WAY, with that goal @CarliLloyd sets a new record for scoring in six consecutive #FIFAWWC games. Chill. No biggie.

Lloyd up top for Morgan.

Matt cross just picked up a cb pick to South Carolina. Was a South Carolina insider, who is 2 for 4 on picks, so I really don’t know how serious to take it. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

CBS is saying Anthony Davis to the Lakers for Ball, Ingram, and Hart plus 3 first round picks

Hart was fantastic last night giving up 5 hits, 2 runs and 5 strikeouts in seven strong innings. Got off to a rough start allowing 2 runs and 3 hits in first inning but then gave up just 2 hits in his last 6 innings and faced the minimum.

I know it’s a popular view to lock in pretty exclusively on in state ‘21’s, and it makes perfect sense. But, my Lord, Mohammed is good. My favorite player that I’ve seen in the last couple of years. Great talent, nonstop motor, no ego. Vic with more size. Really hope we stay involved here.

@jakeweingarten: Five-star sophomore Aminu Mohammed begins the communication period with a call from Iowa, he’s also been contacted by Indiana. Expect many others to reach out. 247 Rivals

I think the Clarke pursuit is a complete waste of time. I am not always the biggest “we should recruit Indiana” guy, but the 2021 class is the one where we should for certain. Lots of great talent in state. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Last night at midnight, coach's could start making direct contact with '21's so it's possible some new names might pop up. I did see that we'd alread been in direct contact with Terrence Clarke. Also Caleb Furst.

This thread got seriously derailed from Nijel Pack so I may as well add to the derailment.

People on both sides have been offended. I’ve seen people attack a negative poster for just being negatives d having a different outlook just as I’ve seen some negative posters getting annoyed with people posting positive outlooks. Been on here long enough to recognize when posters are frustrated with how a thread is going or about to go. A personal example would be when I’m posting recruiting updates on a recruit about IU being interested and the first post from someone after is a smart a$$ reply saying don’t know why IU is involved they are wasting their time and have 0 chance and how big a failure the program is. Those posters seemed annoyed at that thought of me trying to bring any positive info about the program that comes up. It’s like I shot their dog and ruined their day for even trying to look at things from a positive standpoint. Like you said we are saying the same thing I think the only difference is i see it happening on both sides of the argument. Middle ground between the 2 sides would be a place to start but that’s just not going happen on a message board especially with as passionate fan base as IU basketball brings. I’m sure you get annoyed of being called a negative poster for you frustrations of where your expectations for the program is just as I’m annoyed of being labeled a pumper of sunshine because of my views. Both can agree winning will bring the 2 sides closer to the middle Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Rivals has Cross at 79 if I recall seeing that correctly. Do the people that didn't like this recruit when he was in the 200s like him better now? Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk

Some people require more detailed explanation.
