He's definitely the dark horse / sleeper factor for next year's team. Easy to root for the kid, especially after all he's persevered through injury wise.

Basically it comes to whether IU is looking for a guy to be a backup post for Ballo or if they are looking for a combo 4/5 backup. The biggest problem with going with a combo 4/5 backup is if Ballo gets hurt. Pros and cons to both. NK offers plus rebounding, okay D. Doubt offensively he will score much. But you aren’t going to get everything from a guy slated for a backup roll

All, This is a no-politics board. It is designed for interaction about IU sports, with the occasional side-track into areas like music, food, and travel. While I fully understand that powder-keg issues touch IU just as they touch everywhere else, and fully appreciate that this thread has been, without exception, sane and respectful, it is in the best interests of (and the rules of) the board to keep this thread and the entire board within those no-politics guidelines. Thanks.

Did the decisions she made prevent the protests or stop the disruption? Attempting to silence dissension doesn’t stop it and often has the opposite effect. Anyway, protests exist and if the protestors break the law there are consequences. I don’t see any issue with protesting nor an issue with enforcing any laws that are broken by protestors.

Going to try and get to every home game this year. I already got my tickets for the Rose Bowl game in September.

Won't bore with details but assuming Goode signs with IU, here are my projected three pointers made/attempts for IU in a 32 game season Carlyle 53 of 157, 34% Mgbako 51 of 147, 34.7% Goode 34 of 88, 38.6% Rice 33 of 110, 30% Reneau 18 of 50, 36% Galloway 16 of 52, 31% Tucker 11 of 35, 31% Cupps 5 of 13, 39% Leal 4 of 10, 40% Team totals: 225 of 662, 34%. Averages: 7 of 20.6 per game. Newton not included due to uncertainty in role/injury, Ballo no predicted threes.

Sharing some inside info— IU recruiting strategy - get guys with names you can’t spell or pronounce—

I liked how they brought along Andrade.

Definitely a big blow. She was going to be their only returning starter next season. Gearlds' seat just got a bit warmer.

They are arresting people now. There was a reason Whitten made some of the decisions she did. Some people just have to learn things the hard way.

Title IX necessitates an equal number of scholarship athletes for women's sports. Men's football has 85 scholarship athletes, which necessitates higher scholarship limits in some women's sports and the addition of scholarship sports for women that are not scholarship sports for men. Universities don't have to use them all in any sport, but it's less expensive and easier to add a few to already existing women's programs than to start new teams.

I would hope for an even split between here, meister and the freshman. I don't think anyone of them will be ready for a starting dominate roll Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

Don't threaten him with a Goode Time.

Things take time. We're going to show him around today, get him a nice lunch at Buffalouies, let him chill out this afternoon with some players. A nice dinner at either Malibu or Uptown, then let him hit the town with Trey & Leal. Let him meet some of our finer co-eds, then a nice breakfast at Uptown or Bedrak then a commitment to make it a Goode Friday

I think you might have got your mojo back

I think tomorrow but maybe today

Earlier today Assembly Call posted this tweet comparing 2 freshman guards. I'm not into guessing games so I'll tell you that A = Jalen Hood-Schifino and B = Carlyle. Just an interesting comparison

I just puked in my mouth a little bit... No offense to anyone on here, but if you wear those shoes you probably went to Purdue.

Those are so comfortable. Start a new cbb trend.

Mack is again an Academic All-American!

Mack is headed to the Pacific Northwest! (Seattle Storm, BTW -- not sure why their logo is so minimized in this graphic).
