Class of '66 Old Fart

Jamie Shaw of Rivals reporting an IU offer to Bryson Tucker a 6'6" SF who attends Mount Saint Joseph HS in Baltimore, MD. The '24 class isn't ranked by either 247 or Rivals and there's just not much out there on him. No stats on MaxPreps and and an inactive Hudl account. He was selected for the USA U16 National Team that recently competed in the FIBA 2021 Americas Championship and averaged 9.5 ppg. and 4.3 rpg. @BrysonTucker3_

Isn't a Jones fracture and surgery that's kept Dorn out for far longer than 2-3 months?

I don't hold any ill will towards him and hope he does have a solid year. But I don't think he'd be a fit with the culture DDV clearly wants on his roster. There were enough red flags at IU.

Volleyball, soccer and women's basketball all competing for parking spots tonight. Volleyball hosting Iowa at 6:00; televised on B1G+. Sunday at 2:00 ET, women on the road to face #11 Wisconsin. Also televised on B1G+. Preview

Is that all it took was a change of coaches?

And neither is an outlier. I'll bet you could overlay the Woody era shot charts and they'd all look about the same. And going forward, I'll bet the DDV era shot charts will look about the same.

Season opener Wednesday evening televised on basic BTN. Last year's A&M team finished 10-22. It's roster consists of 11 redshirt juniors or seniors so there is a lot of college level experience on the team. Next Sunday our Hoosiers face Marquette in Chicago at 1:00 ET with the game televised on ESPN. Radio Live Stats

Let's get the march to 10-0 started. Current weather forecast calls for am showers, afternoon high of 55, wind west at 10-15 mph.

UIC opened the season at home on Monday in a 78-63 loss to Robert Morris. Their team features 10 newcomers and five returners on its roster as senior Jessica Carrothers led the Flames with 28 points in the opener. Last year's UIC team went 15-18 on the season. Preview Live Stats Radio

Committed to Notre Dame today.

Often identified simply as Jenica Raine and attends Johnston HS in Johnston, IA. Haven't found a great deal about her but she is ranked #1 in the '26 class by Top Spot Basketball. She also played in the 17U Great Plains Challenge, a U.S. Junior Nationals Girls Event. @JenicaRaine10 https://www.fivestatehoops.com/news_article/show/1235594

FOX will have its top crew of Gus Johnson, Joel Klatt & Jenny Taft on the call for Big Noon Saturday’s Indiana–Penn State broadcast. It’s IU’s 2nd FOX game and 4th national TV appearance in 5 weeks (CBS twice).

Drew Adams headed to New Albany to check in on '28 Noah Washington. Apparently New Washington also has a '29 Karson Stoudemire who's supposed to be one of the better freshman in the state.

Waaaaaay tooo early but.............. I'm not 100% certain but I believe Landon is a brother to the Lampley sisters both of whom we've offered although '25 Jaylah didn't put us in her final 6. The other offer is to '26 Lola Lampley.

Couple of morning tweets for your viewing pleasure.

USA Today Sports sees it for what it is.

Tucker goes over 2,000 pts. for his career and records a double double with 18p and 11r We shoot 16-16 on FTs We shoot 24 3s and make 10. We have 23 assists on 36 made shots. We curb stomp a team we're supposed to curb stomp. It's a good night to be a Hoosier.

Maybe planning a redshirt year?

Tucker currently has 1,999 career points per Raby.
