No problem man.  The landscape has changed so much even over the last 10 years I constantly have to keep up on this stuff.  

  No problem.  The late signing period is soon, and basically goes right up to the start of the first summer session.  That is for incoming freshman.  They can play right away assuming their grades are in order.  More times than not the best players have already signed in the early session in November.  The only way these kids become available is if a coach is fired and the kid is released from his LOI.  Usually kids that transfer will do so before the first summer session so they can get everything in order heading into their new school.  They will have to sit out a year.  5th year seniors have got a degree and sat out a year.  They are a great commodity because they only take up a year and if you have the scholly to burn it has no downside.  They also have experience and played at this level.  The coaches and players have a good idea of who is going and coming at this time of year.  The ones that surprise the coaches is when they do it mid-year like Luke.  

  I hope it is only 2, but there will be attrition.  Last year there 400 transfers in D1 basketball alone.  When you are IU there will be a lot of tough love.  It will either be work or leave, or you won't get any minutes next year.  Every team has transfers.  This team will be no different.  We probably won't know for 100% who until right before the 1st summer session.  

  Any takers?  

  Good possibility we have more than a couple of spots open up.  I want Lee.  I think we could feasibly add as many as 3 players.  Sad but true when you play the way we did.  

  Yeah, the 2013 class was far better than the 2014 class as a whole.  When you are this late in the game for recruiting, this is a dream possibility.  He has one year under his belt.  Will sit out a year.  We would bring in a Junior with 3 years of eligibility that is 7 ft.  He also put up solid numbers.  I would take that.  

So, how does UK get a Shocker?  

  Not that close with my brother.   

Ok, you sold me.  I hope UK goes down.  FU UK!!!!

I am so conflicted right now.  I want them to both be miserable.  However if Wichita St. wins, they will still lose soon.  If UK wins we will never hear the end of it.  

  FMB!!!!

Lol, bite your damn tongue Dukie.  

  Hate to see the cheerleaders in that game.  You show your ankle and you might get shot.  

Game is a win/win for IU fans.  Either way I can honestly say I am content with the output.  

Harris yes.  Dawson not worth the drama of his recruitment.  We were close on Harris.  That visit to MSU sealed it for him.  

  Although when we got it to Jordy the last two years that really didn't always seal it.  

Izzo will probably pop an artery on that foul.   

  Looks like best brackets at ESPN had them missing 2 games in the 1st round.  There were like 20 of them.  One guy missed 1, but has sucked in the round of 32.  

I think if you head into the Sweet 16 with 2 losses you are in excellent shape.  One loss this year would be incredible.  

  Yeah, and the ACC had Duke and Cuse go down.  They were supposed to be the strength of the tournament.  I really thought both would go far.  They just overlooked their opponent and got caught.  

For the B1G being overrated we may have 3 teams in the Sweet 16.  How many does everything else have?  As I said that the smart team hit a 3…  

FMB!!!

Refs needed Wisconsin to cover.  

That was pretty stupid on Oregon's part.  Good job by Jackson for not reacting.  

I think I seen Wisky dunk in the pre-game.  I want a T for that.
