    UNC Bama is NUTS. What a game.

    I pull up VistaPrint every time Trey Galloway hits a 3.

    A guy tends to get pretty familiar with that when he consumes Hormel chili at the rate Ole Ricky does.

    And contrary to popular belief, there is NOTHING wrong with it. It’s fun! I’ll predict 24 wins and a Sweet 16 in September. I’ll almost certainly be wrong. Who gives a s**t?

    Oh, missed that. He had been struggling with that shoulder for weeks now, along with I believe a bum ankle. I had forgot about those.

    In the spirit of fairness and to play devil’s advocate on myself…the freedom and spacing of ISU’s offense is an AYCE buffet of looks for Conwell. He (and the other 4 on the floor) can get just about any look they desire at any point in the clock. They regularly turn down looks that would be as open as you’d ever see an IU player for even better ones. That…has not been the case at IU. Would he be set up for success here?

    Tucker Devries officially following dad to WVU. Not a shock.

    I think we're in a great place with him. I normally wouldn't be wishing for a kid to leave ISU, but realistically he's outta there so it might as well be to Indiana. If I haven't been clear, I would literally die for Ryan Conwell.

    President of the Ryan Conwell Fan Club checking in. Absolutely. He would've been our best guard this season and it wouldn't have been particularly close, not that the bar was sky high. Big, strong lefty at 6'4 195 and I'd buy a little heavier than that. Can pull up from anywhere, catch and shoot, drive, has a solid handle. Trees aren't known for locking anyone up this season, but his physicals don't give me much pause as far as guarding at this level. In the NIT he's played against 3 P6 schools (counting SMU going to the ACC next year) that featured big, long athletes and has taken over all 3 games at certain points. The no-brainiest of all no-brainers.

    Is that a real picture? He looks happy.

    The Case for Josh Schertz

    Terre Haute news sports guy reported that Schertz turned down ~5/$15mil from Louisville (I think this is more complicated than he "turned it down") and ~7/$7mil from FAU to replace Dusty at his alma mater. Will decide between SLU and ISU after the NIT, aka either next Wednesday or Friday morning he'll be introduced at SLU.

    I'm pretty sure every single one of those non-lane 2s were from Jizzle James. Dude was pulling up from everywhere.

    This search is hilarious. Big time Tennessee football vibes.

    I don't want him at all, but he's one of my favorite players in country to watch. Love his energy.

    Fire Coach Woodson

    If the Hautians are to be believed (dangerous game there!) Schertz has signed some sort of agreement with SLU, but not an employment contract. I've heard buyout numbers floated (and I'm not a contract lawyer so I don't know if it's even realistic to have a buyout on a MOU) and the numbers are large. All that to say, Schertz will almost certainly not be at ISU next season.

    Sounds like you also need a burner.

    Good player (and I know others already answered about him going to WVU) but I'm not sure him and Knecht are on the same planet. Probably more a credit to Knecht than a knock on Tucker in fairness, but I'll be curious to see how he holds up in the Big 12.

    I can confirm that poster was neither Jordan Hulls nor anyone on staff. I won’t say anything else - because frankly I don’t know much else - but I just don’t want that to gain any traction if anyone was thinking it lol. The closest people we’ve ever had to the program posting here to our knowledge are players’ parents, who chose to be known. Yogi’s mom (who was/is a SAINT), Troy Williams’ mom immediately come to mind.

    College Bball Thread

    Legitimately an emotional experience in there tonight. Couple of old ladies in front of me (who you could tell were coming to Sycamore games before my parents were born) were hugging and fighting back tears during the big run in the 2nd half. Someone may have been cutting onions right by me.

    Just returned from the Haute watching our next coach beat the brakes off some Bearcats. Let’s get this on the calendar still.
