I’m sure all the coaches will be fired up to have a trustee that tweets at recruits and runs around trying to get selfies at a team hotel.

Could be missing a name or two, but one thing is clear about this group -- IU is recruiting higher level kids right now. https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/iu-footballs-impressive-list-of-june-recruiting-visitors-highlights-direction-of-the-program/

Margaret Menge is also running for Trustee - she's a journalist, and fun fact, she sued IU and the BoT's last summer because the University didn't agree to provide her with the following: "The request was for “emails from and to John Wilkerson, Asst. Vice President for International Services, that contain the words China or Chinese or any code word or abbreviation that is used to denote international students from China, for the period March 1, 2020 to June 18, 2020.”" She thinks the University is gullible for bringing CCP spies into the state. Fun. As Hova said... A big time no from me, dawg.

The Bates family is exceptionally proud of Tamar and this tweet from his father captioned: Our new home.

Brad REALLY didn’t want to come coach in college.

Ditto. I was 6’4” in college. Haven’t been measured in a few decades, but pretty damn sure I’m not now. And, yeah, everything about this kid is really impressive. Won’t surprise me at all if 10 years from now when Woody is retiring after a hell of a run returning the program to real relevance that we look back at Bates as the foundational kid. Kind of think he might be special.

There were color cameras when you were at IU?

Well, I guess he wont be going to ANY college now

I mean, it is something that China does. I don’t know if it’s happening at IU specifically, but it’s not a loony theory. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/ncna1104291

Man. It sucks that people do not know just how good Dame is. 55 on 17/24 is insane. One of the greatest postseason performances ever. And it got regulated to NBATV because they can’t/won’t switch away from the Lakers getting beat down

I thought he was going to wear number 53 to honor his grandmother?

My beer fridge is in the garage lol. She gets the one at the pool

That guy sucks hard. A big time no from me, dawg.

That’s a damn big fish to have caught in your swimming pool. Even more impressive because you’ve got a cage on the pool deck.

If you liked the picture of Tamar and his family on campus, you'll really enjoy Tamar receiving his high school diploma. Tamar's grandfather also has a Twitter account and had multiple tweets about Tamar's graduation and becoming a Hoosier. In one of grandpa's tweets, he inadvertently referred to us as University of Indiana and the jerks that some of our fans can be called him out on it. Geesh! Some of our "fans" really need to get a life.

Maybe the "Student Hosts?"

Beautiful family! Glad to have them as Hoosiers. Can’t wait to see Tamar play.

I find that guy insufferable personally and a lot of people on Peegs do as well. lol

BTW, trustee elections are underway, after having been canceled last year. https://alumni.iu.edu/events/trustee-election/index.html There's an interesting candidate this year. Former Hickory High guard Rade Butcher (aka Warsaw dentist Steve Hollar, a graduate of the IU School of Dentistry). Neither advocating nor opposing his candidacy -- just pointing it out.

All IU alumni are eligible to vote in the trustee election! I encourage you to read the bios and make your own decision on who you think will be best for the university!

That was crazy! He won’t win won in Portland unfortunately, **** the NBA. He’s much more likable than some other stars too. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Interesting. Very interesting

Well he is running on a platform of improving sports. Who people vote for is up to them, but next time money gets siphoned away from sports for a building, because the other candidates win who are not sports fans, don't complain. Eric may be eccentric and a show off, but at least he wants to fix the issue about the trustees caring about sports. That's the bottom line about what people on this board should care about regardless of how they feel about his personality.

Mother Bears can’t be plain cheese. You need to load it up to get anything good from there. I’m not surprised he thought it was fancy Domino’s if he only tests on plain slices. Rockets Pizza on College was always good for post-bar pizza; better than getting Pizza X(press) delivered. I used to go to Butch’s for slices because it was the closest thing to east coast pizza, but it wasn’t great. Something about the cheese was a little off. It looks like King Dough didn’t make it in Bloomington, but there’s still one up in Indy. That was really good thin crust.

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye. Reports are that Kofi Cockburn staying in the draft and will not return to Illinois.
