  1. Don’t get me wrong. I think he will be a really good player. In my mind it’s like going from Cody to Bryant at a forward position. I think he will be really good, but I have a feeling TJD is going to give us an All American season. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Agreed and I thought down the stretch he started to look comfortable with his legs and moving. You could tell early on he was thinking about the leg some. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Coronavirus and Its Impact

    All I know is Lincoln Financial isn’t opening up for employees to come into the office before October 1st due to various health departments and the governments urging. My kids of all ages were offered to do their schooling through their school district virtually all next school year. I live next to Allen County and we usually follow their lead. That’s my reality of the situation. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    So has anyone else’s school district offered the choice of virtual or in school for next school year K-12? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Has Archie said anything?

    Don’t get me wrong. There is plenty that is over the top. I appreciate the response. There have been some blatant racism in quite a few of the games I have went to. As both a student and fan. My first racist memory was as a little kid when Lawrence Funderburke came back. Most recent? The MSU game where things started getting thrown and almost got the crowd a T. We should have got one. But I feel I pay attention to those types of things more sometimes than others. I feel an announcement on respect prior to the games would be beneficial to some. But I can understand if you have never witnessed it, you don’t see the reason. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    How many games a year do you go in person? Edit: Reason I ask is I was just curious of what the most offensive chant you have heard/hear? For me it would be nice to do something similar as more of a reminder to not chant or scream racist things amongst others. I usually go to about half or just slightly under half of the home games. Just curious if it’s a different experience that makes you feel that way? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Coronavirus and Its Impact

    Total COVID-19 cases in Indiana now over 38,000 https://fortwaynesnbc.com/2020/06/09/total-covid-19-cases-in-indiana-now-over-38000/ (Via Fort Wayne's NBC) I thought this was a pretty decent breakdown with images to show where we are in Indiana on the curve. They do this daily. That is also not my headline either. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Coronavirus and Its Impact

    And that’s where the confusion starts. In the past they have used asymptomatic and presympotmatic interchangeably. They aren’t the same. Models here have shown as much as a 40%-60% transmission rate in true asymptomatic cases. So that means it has been seen and recognized here. I hope when Fauci comes to his next presser he sheds light on that for us. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    That’s should be a good change of pace and conference officiating will play better to his game imo. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Obviously he is a 5 in college. I mean I have never seen him play the 4. How dare me speak untruths and not pigeon hole him to appease your reality. But I am sorry I did forget all of the players you mentioned played under Archie Miller. I mean they had the same exact role to a T that TJD currently play. I mean isn’t it so obvious?

    Yeah, I mean that’s exactly how they act. I have never seen an NBA draft a player and completely change their position for the NBA. Again just a true representation of reality here. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    From getting in foul trouble and the constant banging in the B1G with the questionable officiating. When teams were physical with him it tended to take him out of the game. I know you think life is a video game and everything is plug and play. It just doesn’t work like that. The most productive TJD in college is splitting time between the 4/5. That TJD will give us 30+ minutes and potentially be an all league and maybe better. His position flexibility gives us lineup options and versatility. I know you don’t understand that and you want to fit everything in a square box. It’s just not reality. There will be times when TJD is the 4 on offensive sets where either Race or Brunk are the 5. Probably half of the time he is in the game. I suspect he will spend more time this year at the 5 than he did last year. That’s where I guess he will spend half of his time there. It’s not all or nothing as you want to paint it. It’s just not the reality of the situation and it’s completely understandable. Brunk is a leader. Go to a game in person and sit close enough to see the interaction and communication. Tell me then he isn’t important and will not get his minutes. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Not if said coach is protecting TJD by splitting his time at the 4 and 5 to maximize the length he can stay in the game. But expect another year of Brunk doing what he is supposed to while being a vocal leader in the game, all the while you just don’t understand why... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Because he was better than Davis? Ok cool you brought up he is good backup. That’s what his minutes show!!! Just because he is on the court to start the game doesn’t mean he is finishing. He is a 7 and 5 guy that did what he could in the time he was given. Not sure what you expected but he is exactly doing the role you suggest. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
