The Newman School on Marlborough Street?!!? Holy crap... they play basketball? That's a very small (35 students per grade) very fancy, very private school between Exeter and Fairfield in Back Bay. A place where mayors and law firm senior partners send their kiddies. See the building with the red door? That's all of it:

Still holding at 6'0", 175 -- keeps me able to hoop! Immature enough to be 15, getting a little wiser with age.

Notre Dame is back open! Nice

In honor of my 60th birthday today, I'm bumping this thread with something majestically beautiful, sad, and complex. For my b-day I'm going to the city park to hoop with people that will largely be decades younger than me, and I'm going to listen to Alex Chilton. I recommend that you do the same.

He truly meant “Ohi-ah State sucks too!”? And if I remember correctly, in the week leading up to the Purdue game, he gave that Purdue team some upside play in stating that he thought they would be ready to battle us. He knew damn well better! Lol. He can be a snarky guy at times.

I think he was joking with a slight tinge of resentment. He's not good at hiding that. That having been said, a successful guy like Cig gets to be that way by always striving for moremoreMORE. It's Dolson's job to reward Cig greatly, but also keep his eyes on other programs, especially the one that has been the University's marquee program for about 98 of the last 100 years. Filing this under 'happy problem'.

Well then Happy Thanksgiving maggot-sucking Boilers! Turkey on Thursday and a nationally televised complete blasting by our Hoosiers on that Friday. Gobble gobble.

It’s not an either or—all three of those guys are outstanding NBA players. And for what it’s worth, Brunson and Halliburton have almost the exact same career and season stats for field goal percentage, three-point percentage, and free-throw percentage. Brunson does it on higher volume, which I suppose is a good thing when a guard is shooting about 49% from the floor. Halliburton is a better and clearly far lengthier defender.

That one’s pretty much a given if it’s even still in contention. He clearly wants Leal and Goode to join the team, and he is more than cognizant that we don’t have a pure defensive big and will need to adjust accordingly.

There is nothing to "fall for" and no conspiracy to favor the Knicks. If there was a league effort to support the Knicks, this grand league conspiracy has been entirely unsuccessful for 52 years. Brunson is a fantastic player, and the thing he does best is use angles to create contact on the drive. When that consistently happens, borderline or bad calls happen too. Conspiracy theories really really REALLY suck.

Got a hunch this young man is going to be the real deal.

August in PR will be flat out tropical— not blazing hot but super humid and pm rain every day.

As an IU alum that’s not a born Pacer fan, it’s pretty easy to root for one of my top few Hoosiers ever— OG and the Knicks.

Karl Anthony Towns is a slightly less talented, healthy Joel Embid.

I believe that the more casual the fan, the more likely they were to think that exclusively Brad Stevens or 65 year old Bruce Pearl would have been the proper hires. And there are probably zero current college players whose names would resonate with casual fans. Me? I don’t give a **** about that. We’re finally going to have a professional college basketball coaching staff. Very good things are likely to follow in due course.

Only see two Czech flags for players on that graphic.

A few takeaways here: Coach has a really nice shooting stroke. Coach is a lefty. Coach is a WAY better amateur actor than Sydney Parrish. The Bison is gonna be the full-time, full-on IU mascot.

Head Coach Matt Driscoll leaving UNF to join Tang's staff at K State. Matt Driscoll is a really good coach and a really good guy.

;)

When given historical context, that is an underrated and astounding post. 247 actually has our current 2026 football high school recruiting class in the upper half of the Big Ten's 18 teams.

We need 25,000 more seats at Memorial too.
