    Stubhub actually had fairly good priced seats for Sunday.  I got mine at $55 per on the lower side of the 300 level.  I thought that was fairly decent considering.  I seen some 100 levels for 180, but IU isn't there.  I will go as a college fan unless UK is there.

    Who would you hire to replace CTC?

    Why is it every coach who has his first run is all of the sudden an up and coming coach?  If we get rid of Crean for $10+ million we better get a top 10 coach.  Not an up and comer.

      Absolutely.  Love that book.

    Bob Hammel.  Great writer.  That was a large reason why Knight liked him.  He could articulate what he was trying to get across in a way that didn't make him sound like an ass.

    Heat vs Pacers..

    Like to see Dave and PG with pick and roll.

    Man, I am used to watching that style of offense.  SMH.

    Heat vs Pacers..

    I seriously get so tired of watching the Heat play.  That team must be battered and bruised for how much they hit the court.

    I bet Heat fans are hating Van Gundy lol.

      That was bulls***.  He got fouled.  He was stoked he hit it.  All he said was "What?".  Wade asked for that T.  BS.

    I can agree with that.  I doubt they aren't evaluating all things.  I know there is a portion of the fan base will jump on him no matter what he does, because they feel if you are not Bob Knight you cannot coach.  That will not happen with him or the next coach.  As a person I think he could have endeared himself to more people by admitting fundamental failures from players, recruiting, to coaching.  His ability to sell the fans on his vision is what got him this far.  He is now seemingly walking down the street with both middle fingers in the air if you somehow doubt that vision.  Just not a fan of that approach.

    So I delivered my own baby last night....(not planned)

    Great story!  You are more of a man than myself lol.  I would have passed out.  Woke up long enough to pass out again.  Then I would have been grabbing a baby with tongs.  Also, if I have to see that up close, I would probably not be able to have sex for a couple of weeks.  Just saying.  I am squeamish.

    ^^^^^^ I also think he has done excellent work on the East Coast.  This isn't all him.  I just haven't heard one coach talk about how they regret how they did something this year.  I don't like the fact there has been no accountability.  Everything has been everyone else's fault.  That attitude frustrates me.  I am not saying it is all of their faults, and I think overall they can do good here.  If they don't think they are doing anything wrong, will we ever truly see improvement under Crean?

    I am cool with his comments.  I understand why he said them.  I don't really agree with all of them.  If you are embarrassed by what is put out there, then don't do some of the things in the first place.  I am sure most all of them are really cool dudes.  However, I care about IU basketball.  My perception right now is that IU basketball isn't where it needs to be.  Hopefully it gets there under them.  If it doesn't, I hope they are gone.  Like them in their profession if I don't get the job done I am fired.  If he wants to equate his profession to my or anyone's profession, there it is at it's most basic form.  I don't get do-overs.  Same as him.  I perform or I am gone.  That is pressure, but you know what?  I signed up for it.  At this point all we hear is the negative chatter, transfers, and the results.  Yet he doesn't want us to believe anything we hear?  Ok…  Again, I am completely cool with what he said and understand his position.  Hopefully he understands mine.

    Now you are going to get us to go here to go there.  Double dipping.  The shame.

    Hell, you even got them talking politics…  See what in the hell you started.  Lol.

    A year I won't forget

    LMAO!!!  I can hear the introduction to the fight…  Robert "Big Harry" Stone by way of his mother's basement.  He has beef with a Dukie…  Not sure why but he does.  Lol, oh that is gold.  I am assuming he is straight too?  He doesn't like bi-ass.  I don't mind females with a nice bi-ass even if they lie.  
  21.   Ha, did you round down or up?  
  22.   Just get Rick into Basey's and you will have a minute to get away.  
  23.   I know he enjoyed Will the player.  I hope he doesn't quit bringing Will the person due to his issues.  His attitude has been great for the environment at IU.  
  24.   Lol, true story.  The man, the myth, the legend, the owner was tweeting Noah Vonleh when he got his new account.  Our guy wanted him to tweet a picture with the BTB logo to show it was him.  He did and IUH41 put in on here.  Pretty quickly we got in touch with IU Compliance.  They wanted us to pull it because it can be construed as advertising.  As we speak I am sure they are trying to figure out your scenario.  I am guessing it won't take too long.  Lol.  Enjoy it while it lasts cause this isn't an everyday thing.
