  Yes. But it is very uncommon.

Seemed to me this should have it's own thread space.    This week:   Coaches poll (USA Today): 17th. Up 6 from last week's 23rd.   Writer's poll (AP): 19th. Up 6 from last week's 25th.   Nice!

    I feel a pay-per-view MBS vs Albers steel cage UFC match coming!

  I believe it was the revered Coach Robert M. Knight who was once famously quoted as saying:   "I don't give a g_ddam flying motherf**king f**k what the hell godd_m Kelvin f**king Sampson says about godd_m anything".   I feel the same, but unlike Coach Knight, I would not have put it that politely.

THIS:       IS BETTER THAN:  

    PS Feathery...I like you!    :biggrin:

    You're damn right everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that Sampson says for the rest of his life regarding basketball is worth nothing. Even if it were true if someone else were to have said it.   Phone calls that were illegal when he made them, and he knew it. Bringing in McGee, Thomas, Bassett, Ellis, Holman. Drugs. No academics.   If he said it, I don't give a flying f**k. That piece of dogsh_t blew up the program of my beloved Indiana Hoosiers. Rat bastard can rot.

    Oooh, oooh...maybe I've turned into a recruiting jinx!   Thon and Markus Howard to ASU! Wilkes, Scruggs and Williams to UK!   Anything to help the cause.

Wow. McIntosh has a couple more years coming back to the Hall. I'm pretty sure his future visits won't go very well now.

  Yes.   Also... this year's Yogi Ferrell = Defender. Distributer. LEADER   What say you?

As my nine year old (who breathes the game) said to me "James Blackmon can't be that bad!" I think, on a few different levels, that sums it up for me.   We are impressed.   __________________________________________________________________________________________________   There WILL be adversity at some point soon. Can't wait to see how this team handles it. If they do that well, the sky is the limit.

  Then...you like OG. And RoJo. And TB. And Collin.

  With Olah they are pretty good team. Probably 6-8th best in the B1G.

  That would be excellent.   However, I would also be perfectly fine with a blah, even-score second half, and a healthy, safe 15 point win.

PERSPECTIVE:   Many in this thread don't seem to be confirming we're playing at all that high a level!   NW is pretty good. Demps is hitting a lot of bail-out prayers. We have a few unnecessary turnovers.   and...WE ARE UP 17 AT HALF!!   Celebrate good times, peoples!

  62°    MAP  INCIDENTS BREAKING NEWS PBC won’t open shelters today; temps ‘just above threshold’       Yes...this is the current "BREAKING NEWS" Headline in the Palm Beach Post.

  Geez Nips...it's down into the upper 50's on my side of the state.   Not sure what to do. Parka? Bonfire? Call to FEMA? Pull the sunscreen SPF back to 15?!?

His participation in those final fours was an optical illusion that was later found to have never happened. ;)

I call bull. Besides the ones that were vacated? They WERE vacated! This is not an endorsement or indictment of CTC. It is merely a fact; that IU's standards and expectations from any coach should be better than two vacated seasons in 17 years.

Umm...in 17 years as a head coach pre-UK, Calipari never made a final four, and had two winless seasons.

The OP is a fan of either UK, PU, or Chik-Fil-A.

I believe there is an easier solution: Issue the full 11,000 tickets to students as they are currently doing, but remove the student designation from those tickets. That allows the full complement of students to attend if they want to, and also allows the free market to re-distribute those tickets via StubHub for students who aren't going to attend.
