Northwestern at Penn State. At 3 in the afternoon. With students on break. And 90% of nittany nation already in Pasadena. The over/under is listed at 139. I wonder if that's for points or attendance?

Let's start the Tom Allen era of IU Football with bowl win!!

Bowl game eve! Figured someone ought to dig this thread up :) #notquiteafootballschooljustyet

Well Christmas turned out awesome. My family got my dad and I tickets in section J row 32 for the Illinois game! I have been a life long Hoosier fan but have never been to see a game. I hope the Hall is rockin' can't stand the Illini or their coach!!! But seriously so excited to go!

Berkmar (Ga.) 60, Wando 44 - final. Warriors return in consolation play tomorrow at 11:30 am vs loser of Burlington/Northwood

Would be UUUUGGGGEE!

If this includes the players, officials, and operators I might be tempted to take the over.

He's said that he stayed in a large part because he is enjoying life as a student athlete at IU, and was not quite as focused on draft position as y'all might think. That might very well just be the truth!

Donovan went on to say he is the kind of player that would play hurt, understands why he can't.

Well, that explains why he was inactive at the Grizzlies/Magic game last night. I was looking forward to seeing him again.

Hmmm. That blows. Hope he gets another shot. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Guess I should have posted this here, but has anyone set near these seats, if so how are they? Well Christmas turned out awesome.

Would not be the first or last.

Troy Williams started for the Grizzlies this year. No one knows what they're talking about when it comes to this stuff, nor will they ever.

Penn St has a highly rated frosh class, but they are not one and dones. They play like a very young group.

Looks like theres about 1000 there. Must be snowed in from the show they saw last night.

Actually it would be one of the most unusual and coolest double play combinations of all time ... 1-3-9

Gotcha. I thought they were eliminated the previous week by tiebreakers of division w/l. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yea, both guys shoulda went last year. Now you have to watch HS level to see who is coming up behind you.

Victor is out again tonight. “The major problem for him is shooting,” Donovan said. “That’s the biggest problem because he just has a really hard time following through. And especially the farther he moves away from the basket, the more painful it is for him. The more he has to flick his wrist, that’s where he struggles.”

I love this kid. Really nice pick up for us.

I'm not sure Irsay and definitive can be used in the same sentence. Irsay was going to fire him a year ago and Pagano himself talked him out of it. He's not exactly a man of conviction. I put zero stock into what he said two weeks ago because of what I just mentioned, and because I've never heard an owner/manager/president say they planned on making changes after the season when their team still had a chance to make the playoffs.

OT I haven't had a good meal since yesterday I had a glass of Chardonnay and a piece of my aunt's chocolate cake with caramel icing made from scratch and to top it all off I haven't had decent sleep since Wednesday.

Agree, Grigson must be the first to go, then the new GM can have new hire input.

Awesome gift... I haven't set there but should be good seats... Section j is in the middle

To be fair though, what do you expect him to say at this point. He probably still has some chance, even if that chance is very small, to be back next year.

Another sophomore that reminds me of Bryant's situation is Ivan rabb from California. If he would of left after his freshman year he probably would of went in lottery or at least the first round. So far this year he has not dominated like he was supposed to. Doesn't mean he won't later in the year but many think he should of came out last year Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Definitely different than the Troy situation. I'd say about 70/30 go vs stay (if I had to put some numbers to it) but trending the other way. A lot more to shake out here.

13-5. We aren't the same team defensively that we were last year (at least yet). If we can get there, the sky's the limit.

I did one more look at the schedule and I think we 16-2 is possible but 15-3 or 14-4 more likely. I find it hard to believe we would be any lower than 14-4. Just way to much fire power on this team to lose much. Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk

Indiana's Amanda Cahill named Big Ten Player of the Week. She averaged 17.5 points, 11.5 boards per game at Florida Sunshine Classic. Atta girl! Amanda Cahill Named Big Ten Player of the Week ROSEMONT, Ill. – Junior forward Amanda Cahill has been named the Big Ten Women's Basketball Player of the Week, announced by the league office on Monday afternoon. The Clyde, Ohio native is rewarded for her performances at the Florida Sunshine Classic where she averaged a double-double as she guided Indiana to two wins over Florida and Stony Brook. Cahill averaged 17.5 points and 11.5 rebounds to go along with 5.5 assists, 2.8 assist to turnover ratio, 1.5 steals and 1.5 blocks as she averaged 60 percent or better from the field (.609) and 3-point line (.625) in the non-conference finale. She also became the 26th player in school history to reach 1,000 points in Wednesday's win over Stony Brook as she went 5-for-7 from the floor (.714) and pulled down a season-high 13 rebounds to go along with 14 points and dished out six assists, two steals and two blocks. In the Tuesday win against Florida, Cahill posted her first 20-plus point game of the season with 21 points to go along with 10 rebounds. She shot 56.3 percent from the floor and 60.0 percent from 3-point range (3-for-5) while adding five assists, a steal and a rebound in the win. The back-to-back double-doubles are also the 23rd and 24th of her career as she now owns six of IU's nine double-doubles scored this season, including four-straight. In addition, Cahill now sits in a tie for sixth in career double-doubles at Indiana, tying Zan Jefferies (1988-91). Cahill is the first Big Ten Player of the Week for Indiana this season. With junior guard Tyra Buss's selection in 2015-16, the duo combines for weekly honors in back-to-back seasons for the Hoosiers for the first time since the 2007-08 and 2008-09. Indiana returns to the court on Wednesday when it travels to State College, Pa. for the Big Ten opener at Penn State. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. ET and will be live on BTN Plus and heard on IUHoosiers.com

Very nice piece on Jodan from the Chicago Sun-Times and the 2 excerpts below should pique your interest. I’ll warn you in advance, the article is loaded with pop-up ads you have to deal with. http://chicago.suntimes.com/sports/is-rb-jordan-howard-the-bears-only-compelling-player-left/

That's it! Time for Mr. Miyagi.

If ifs and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a merry Christmas! ?don Meredith?? Not sure Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

FW North Side defeated Indpls. Tindley 77-61. Brooks with 23 pts.

What a joke with that quote. Naming some of the worst acts known to man in attempt to make tripping seem less harmful. K, your player is a selfish, spoiled brat who throws tantrums and takes anger out on other players. Something tells me Grayson Allen is the kind of kid who will poke at you all game long, get under your skin, and the minute you snap he'll run and hide behind his bigger friends. He's a *****.

17 pts and 11 rebs last night in a 58-45 loss. Next: 12/27-28 http://www.suburbanonesports.com/article/content/sol-boys-basketball-wrap-12-23-16-0066907#.WF4nZOnWblo.twitter

Don't hate bruh. Merry Christmas!

Bro that ain't double teaming. That was Three 6 Mafia "run a train" territory. (For the record, I think every single guy involved here is in the wrong.) Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Bingo. A recruit who is a guest at a school where he is trying to show worthiness for a four year scholarship should not be wasted and double-teaming a drunk co-ed. There is not much larger a red flag than that.

Both games are on weeknights, but the Nebraska game is during a week when many, if not most, are on winter vacation, including school age kids. Me and my 5th grader are making the trip from out of state for the Nebraska and UL games. (shhhh...don't tell him; it's a surprise).

This nugget can go in here. @IndianaWBB: For the first time in program history, #IUWBB's roster now features three active 1,000 point scorers in @lebrona23, @tbuss3 and @acahi11!

1000 for Cahill!

IU 41-27 @ half. Cahill leads the way with 12 pts, 10 rebs and 4 asts. Two points away from a 1000.

New IU record as Tyra Buss records her 50th consecutive double digit game. What a player she is and we are so fortunate that she opted to stay after Curt Miller left.

I have a feeling this middle school gym doesn't have Free-D. Da Buss just got her 50th straight 10+ pt game.

I wouldn't keep doing what you and Yogi are doing in this recruiting thread regardless of how you feel on the state of recruiting. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Cuz why not? IU 24, Utah 14

My son got me a Bob Knight autographed picture of the 1987 White House visit. The picture shows Knight presenting Reagan with a red blazer. It is in a beautiful frame with a certificate of authenticity.    My son did very good this year!
