Noticed there was a Ky Palombizio on the roster. Apparently he's a nephew of Dan Palombizio. For you youngsters, he was a Indiana Mr Basketball. Thanks for sharing Hardwood. I didn't know this place existed.

My husband is reading the Goodwin book. He loves this book and is always citing situations that these leaders faced and how relevant it is today. I'm looking forward to reading the book, but I plodding along in Grant by Ron Chernow.

Well deserved.

It's time the women's team got some recognition and break into the rankings. But I won't be surprised if it doesn't happen. I believe they travel to Ohio State Thursday which would give them another opportunity to show what they can do. Just keep winning.

There is a promotional for Sunday's game. They call it "Head to the Hall" and admission to the game is $1. We went to tonight's game and enjoyed quarters 2,3,and 4. First quarter was rough. The passing mistakes drove me crazy. Patberg finally got us going.

Great to start out 1-0 in conference. An overtime road win is impressive.

Coaching nightmare. Hopefully, they don't have a long break before they play the next game. That's one TW and team wants to leave in the past.

Great comeback, ladies. Now let's make some noise in the Big Ten conference games. Go Hoosiers.

Oh my goodness. If the game is a grinder, we know how to win ugly. ( Nice shot, Rob.)

So I'm assuming Watford has cancelled his visit because Keion Brooks is already in the fold?

Looks like we host Butler Wednesday.. I believe they are undefeated. This could be really fun.

37-30 IU at the half

I'm watching MSU and Louisville and I believe I saw Ted Valentine officiating. Wasn't his over the top behavior at MSU last year. Just surprised to see him doing a BIG game.

Phinisee is a recruiting tool. Who wouldn't want to play with a guy like that? Has 8 assists and scores in double figures. He is a pass first point. Are you listening Trayce?

This is a great pickup. I believe Emily is a 6ft setter who has also played outside hitter. She's come from winning programs, club and HS. The Big Ten is the power conference in women's volleyball and Ms Fitzner is coming to an up and coming program in a big time conference. Exciting times. This is the new Indiana.

From what I understand mom wants IU, stepdad wants MSU or UCLA but not IU. MSU convinced him to give them more time and watch how they play this year. It could be that waiting on a decision helps reduce stress at home. Kids value their parents opinions and putting off the decision could actually lessen stress under their roof. Hope he has a great senior season .

I agree with you about IU needing to be really good. But I think it's just as important to show top recruits how high level talent (RL) is used and developed in Archie's system. When Romeo continues to flourish in this system, it could show high level recruits that IU is a good college choice. I'm also going to include Rob Phinisee in this. How his skill set is utilized and showcasing his development over the season could validate Indiana's player development.

Awesome. Coach Aird has got this program headed in the right direction.

The lyrics are disturbing and frankly worrisome. I hope he can find a situation that will let him have a fresh start.

Loved the aggressive play of the new IU that Coach Aird is bringing to the program.

In my opinion, Nebraska should be glad they play in the west division. Beat downs like they just got could happen with greater frequency. On the bright side, maybe they can get a win this coming weekend when they host Purdue. I'll be pulling for them.

Dodged a bullet on that one. We'll take it.

Congratulations Armaan on making this decision. Best of luck with your senior season.

Stinesville Quarry Lads, Shawswick Farmers, Cory Appleboys, Eminence Eels were schools back in the day that had mascot names that referenced something unique about the community.
