I'd say that any win gets us to about #6, a close loss leaves us at 12-14, and only a very bad loss would push us down to about 18. A lot to gain, very little to lose here - good scheduling!

It is unofficially over... On the verge of complete irrelevance to Hoosier Nation.

Groce can't coach-ey.

Ding ding ding... We have a winner-post.

From their Saturday night exhibition: Illinois 82, Washington University of St Louis 75 (Wash U 15-10 in Div III last year)

You are correct, sir.

Two weeks is a long time for someone that has supposedly completely already made his decision.

"Clearly not your point" is true. However, my post is not just sarcasm. Can we win with a team of student athletes? I don't know, but that's the only way I want to try.

Hookers, cash, and blow will fix our recruiting issues?

IMO, it's all an indirect Crean-bash. The theme is... everything about IU is awesome, and yet we're still not getting the recruits we should. Not exactly a direct shot at CTC, but an indirect shot toward his ability to seal the deal. Frankly, I'm not all that bothered. We have a banner contender this year, our talent level is, and seems like it will continue to be very good, and our team is composed of actual student athletes that are a joy to root for. That, and Wilkes still hasn't committed anywhere yet.

True.

Remember, Kris Wilkes still has not committed to UCLA or anywhere else.

Atta boy general. My thoughts exactly. Not coming to IU? That's the day he'll officially become completely irrelevant to me.

He was completely outstanding

I'm thinking this commitment is gonna stick. Hope the coaching staff doesn't ground him.

Position-less basketball has arrived at IU. This year, All of our rotation players can guard at least SG through center, or PG through PF (unless JBj doesn't succeed at guarding anyone, lol). David Beatty very much fits that mode.

Well heck. That is pretty newsworthy. Beatty is very much in the RoJo/tough as nails, good shooter mode. Excellent offer list. It also confirms what we should have deciphered from the Tremont Waters interest: IUBB wants to take five for '17, another guard and another large wing or big.

As much as I like to pile on the Illini, both of their boards that I've read generally think that UCLA is the most likely destination.

Did your coach and ever drop trou and take a dump at midfield in front of the team? IU's did.

Ummm... Wilkes and Justin Smith are also almost the exact same height and weight.

Coach Avery Johnson is really good. Between Bama and Pearl at Auburn UK is gonna start losing some conference games.

Wow.

Excellent coach with a proven winning record in the B1G, good point guard, experience, outside shooters, and Donnal and that German dude are pretty good bigs.

It's probably not appropriate to attach conventional, sane logic to a guy that has had as dysfunctional a life as Jadlow.

Michigan is being vastly underrated as a B1G contender for the coming season IMO.
