    Allen was the correct choice

    I haven't reviewed the latest class as to rankings lately but we did get a few 4's. This is what we need to attract - 4's and 5's. Until we get consistently above .500, it will be hard to attract them. It will be a slow process to get these guys. In the meantime, our coaches will have to do their best to get the most out of the 3's and a couple 4's to go against these top teams in our division with their 4's and many 5's. More depth will help and is desperately needed. This next class is a good start at getting the depth and stars we need for our program. We just need to let the staff get their thing done while we wait which I hope isn't long.

    Forum tipoff classic

    Thanks - I just researched it a little more and found the following on PREP HOOPS / INDIANA: December 9th. Southport Fieldhouse. That is the location of the best event in Indiana for the high school season this year. Brian Snow and company have put together another stellar lineup of games and there are more than a few outstanding storylines to pay attention to. From Romeo Langford vs. Keion Brooks Jr. to Jerome Hunter vs. Damezi Anderson, Robert Phinisee vs. Eric Hunter and everything in between. This event has built up over the years and is now looking like one of the best events in the Midwest.

    Forum tipoff classic

    I think this is scheduled for the Sunday the 10th and IU plays UL of Sat the 9th so hopefully the coaches get to the event. Check it out here - twitter.com/forumtipoff?lang=en
  4. Anyone know whether IU has or had any interest in Russ Yeast?

    Diamont leaving the team

    Luca was selected "Offensive Player of the Year - Western League" as a freshman. Take a look at one of his freshman videos: http://www.maxpreps.com/athlete/luca-diamont/NLQhcgaYEea-8KA2nzwbTA/default.htm Looks like he can handle the ball - hope Zander can get some Hoosier blood in him. Here is a THANK YOU letter written to Zander Diamont that is very interesting also A Thank You Letter to Zander Diamont by Eddie Cotton (1 week ago) Zander Diamont stood for more than the average football player. He was electrifying and hopeful. He defied logic and made you believe. Most importantly, he never strayed away from who he was. Zander Diamont is and will always be my favorite college athlete of all-time. http://wiux.org/2016/11/27/a-thank-you-letter-to-zander-diamont/
  6. Is HH going to be shown on any TV station?

    IU Baseball - B1G Tournament

    Thanks for the info on TV coverage. That is too bad that BTN is carrying it. Our cable company and BTN cannot come to an agreement so we have to do without seeing any Big Ten games on anything.

    IU Baseball - B1G Tournament

    Are these games going to be carried on tv or streamed on computer?
  9. This kid is an Indiana All-Star player so there are people that believe he is much better than some of you doubters. Between those that put him on the team and CTC, he has something thing that you don't see. Let's cut out the downgrading talk and be glad that he is a Hoosier and will be helping us out for the next few years. Grant - we are waiting for you to tear it up next year.
  10. Let's don't be so negative on where we can go or not go.  Sure, the competition of the division we are in is indeed tough and it will take better players to move higher.  Wilson has some on the way.  Look at how close we came to beating some of them this year.  A better defense that could held 5 teams to one less TD and we would have won 4 (I think of them).  That would have given us a 10-2 regular season record!!   Think of that, guys.  That is how close we came to doing something that those comments above say we can never do.   As we do progress, there will be some 4-stars and then 5-stars that will sign up to help be the one or one of the ones that make us a powerful team.  That will happen if we don't continually talk down our team.   Think about how close we came to a 10-2 record, and then write your next comment.   We need an extension for Wilson so we can keep the staff continuous to provide the opportunity for the 4 & 5 stars to climb aboard.  Better players signed up 4 yrs, 3 yrs, 2 yrs, and last year.  This year we are getting better ones also.   Let's keep this on a positive movement and get a defense that can hold our opponents to one less TD per game next year.

    Hoosier hysteria

    Is there any streaming going on to cover any part of Hoosier Hysteria?    I know the game itself can only be seen on BTN but if your cable company does not offer BTN, does anyone know  of a link someplace to pick it up?   What about the Rutger game this weekend.  Is it being streamed anywhere so a guy in PA can pick it upon the internet?
  12. Someone please give more details on the streaming.  I am in PA and really want to see this.    Thanks in advance.

    IU vs SIU Reply Right Now On BTN

    Does anyone know of a way to watch BTN2GO or BTN other than cable (if they have it), DISH, or DirectTV?  How about SLINGTV?  Do  they have it?   It looks like practically of IUBB games will be on BTN and very, very few on normal channels.

    2018 (PG) Foster Loyer

    I am not much on giving out scholarship offers so early but we need to do whatever is necessary to keep him interested in watching what IU is doing instead of only watching um and msu.   He also needs to get some stretching exercises to gain some height to about 6'4" by 2018!

    Slow down a little - we don't know how long those suspensions are for.  Has anyone heard if they will get to play next week yet?
