  Haha, okay.

  Are you saying we shouldn't recruit Indy because of one player?  Or that we should stop recruiting Southern Indiana because it's known for its meth problem?  

Boom! And he got Indiana University correct!

  Add in a senior, cerebral player in Hartman and upperclassman RoJo and Holt, and sophomores OG and Morgan.  That group of 8 should be a top 25 team if all players improve.  I hope for this after losing Yogi, Z3, Bielfeldt, and possibly Williams and JBJ.

  Just catching up on Facebook and came across this..   Three off-the-field incidents, punching a woman in the face with closed fist   This came hours after the other incident, three LSU players arrested   Agreed, it is inexcusable but it's not like it is limited to IU.  If these things are being covered up by the staff there is a bigger problem.

Teammates, trainers, somebody.

How you got time for that ish being a full time student and a full time athlete? And having/dealing that much somebody had to know. Man, WTF?!

Especially with how this staff loves to offer extremely early. I still think if Crean is at IU he ends up wearing candy stripes.

Agreed, the best players in the world can generate enough excitement.  However, when you can catch an inbounds pass and take 4 steps before putting the ball on the floor it ruins the basketball part of National Basketball Association for me.  The same goes with star players missing shots and then having fouls called.  The game is controlled too much for "basketball."

This.  Give me a solid fundamental game that I can get excited over.  I could never quite determine what I didn't like about the NBA but I think this is the main reason.  It seems like they try to manufacture excitement too much.  You have the best players in the world but they still feel like they need to control the game.  Don't like it from a basketball standpoint, great for an entertainment view though.

Fast pitch softball is a more natural body movement with less stress on your elbow/shoulder so it's much safer to pitch on back to back days. Great to have an ace ranked this high. Now if we can recruit at a high level around her...

I would love to see Yogi and JBJ start in the backcourt with RoJo being the first guard off the bench. However, that's not Crean's style. Under Crean, who was the last player to start the majority of the season and then come off the bench the following season?

Is there a more awkward player in the NBA than Terrance Jones? Maybe Chris Bosh?

Games against Duke and KU will help the SOS but instead of 300+ guaranteed wins why not go for 200-250 RPI guaranteed wins? That would increase our SOS that much more.

We usually screw ourselves with 3 or more 300+ RPI opponents. If we could get those down in the 200-250 that would go a long way to increasing our SOS.

I don't think Taylor's dad has anything to worry about though...

MSB didn't rush into cinco, cinco rushed to MSB.

New rally cry: Don't be in the bottom 45! I like it. It seems possible.

I don't have control over the team and what makes the most sense doesn't happen often.

We don't have the guard depth nor the defensive ability with a three guard lineup to stop teams. With that said I'm sure we will see a lot of three guard lineups and Troy at the 4.

We're cloning Hanner?! I prefer to clone Yogi or Bryant for a backup point or another low post player. Haha just messing with you. We should have a solid lineup and specialized lineups. Can't wait to see if we can accomplish our goals.

Oops, figured with Hanner, Troy, AND Chuck following it would be him.

Thomas Bryant is now on Twitter [attachment=2072:ImageUploadedByBtownBanners1429924602.557996.jpg]

Chuck encouraging others that we're fine. What has happened to this board?!

Unfortunately that's what I see happening. Crean will be confused AF in March 2016 when all our guards are gassed. I wouldn't mind seeing Holt or Morgan at the 4. Regardless all players need to improve both what they do best, vastly improve their weaknesses, and somehow develop defensive toughness.
