I love IU as much as anyone but that is a horrible pick in third round. He would still be there in the sixth round for 49ers if they like him and could make a nice complimentary back with his grittiness and ability to grind for yards. However, the third round is for franchise backs and Black is not that with his lack of speed. Not a knock on him and think could have a nice pro career and one of my favorite players. Just not a primary NFL franchise back with his somewhat slower wheels.

The flood lights going out for a few minutes due to a glitch late in the game is the perfect message and metaphor from the baseball gods on the state of the program right now. Its why a leadership change is likely needed this year or next. Mercer really struggles with coaches like Rick Heller whose entire system is based on pitching and fundementals.

Quacktastic ...

Joining CJ and Kurtis out west

Four Hoosiers in the first three rounds.

THE THIRD RUNNING BACK IN THE DRAFT!! This is awesome. His pro day was so so good. Kaelon is going to be a star, and as soon as McCaffery gets injured (and he will) the whole nation will find out how exceptional he is.

Round 3?! Holy hell that is awesome.

Kaelon Black -- the Virginia Beach kid -- to the 49ers at No. 90.

Kaelon Black to the Niners

Whoops idk why I typed that. I had just texted a friend about Omar and Ponds but must've started wondering about Sarratt.

There was very little doubt of that from the get-go. He had no clue what he was in for with the college game and certainly with regard to recruiting. Thank the Almighty that NIL was a thing, otherwise, I wonder what kind of talent he could attract. But as DeVries told us, a team is much more than a collection of players. Fit is important, team chemistry is critical as well having a basic scheme of how he expects the team to play. Thankfully, that nightmare is over. We can hopefully forget what a disaster it was and focus on Coach DeVries and what appears to be a promising sophomore season.

Michigan softball is basically IU soccer in the Mike Freitag era right now who gave the job from the retiring legend (Carol Hutchins) to her top assistant (Bonny Tholl) a few yrs ago and while it has not gone horribly, it has definitely led to a fairly noticeable drop off. Shonda Stanton basically gave Tholl a lesson in her system and culture she has built today. As soon as the Hoosiers hit or miss pitching gave up a 2-1 lead late to trail 4-2, IU didn't panic and instead poured it on with power ball in last two innings and pulled away to win 8-4 while being loud and joyful in dugout. That's the program Stanton has built in her time at IU and today was a microcosm of it and its why the team is cruising towards a fourth straight NCAA Tournament, while the Wolverines are likely to miss the postseason all together for the second time in Tholl's four year tenure. If Michigan is smart and wants to go back to being a top tier squad in college softball as they were for 30 years, they need to being in someone new who has head coaching experience and not keep the legend's top assistant as doing it this way almost always leads to slow decline.

Well, we're losing 7-2 but Caleb Koskie sets a new hitting streak record.

Sid the sloth goes to..Arizona in round 3? Cardinals draft is questionable at best Edit: I do think Bisontis will be good though

Like Peaches and Herb.. (Google it you youngsters)

@LIHoosier clearly is not following instructions.

Sounds like a head case that probably wouldn't fit in the team environment but if Coach takes him I guess I would be OK with it.

I think woody’s coaching was exposed long before this squad ever took the floor at IU

Vegas play at the Jets

Please tell me the Jets don’t play the raiders this year

Not sure how I’m gonna thread the needle between simultaneously rooting for my all-time favorite IUFB player while wanting the Jets to flounder for the remainder of Woody Johnson’s days, but I’m gonna figure it out.

Waffle House is still undrafted

Waffle House and 5 deserve so much better. But hey, Hoo better to turn the Jets around than our guys?

The 2nd greatest turnaround in football history has to start somewhere. If only there was a way for the Jets to get rid of their version of the Blind Aussie.
