I just heard from a reliable source on a well connected IU board that he just talked to Romeo, and it's 50/50, but Romeo likes IU and their facilities!

What a tremendous attitude!

That picture does look roughly the size of a Ball ego

@Hovadipo Hova Hugs all around!

I was so happy to see a crowd at the Columbus East sectional. No really strong teams (Bloomington S had a great record, but not overly dominant), but the crowds were there! Columbus North v Columbus East was a great game (although it was the first time I've seen a travelling call on someone who didn't have the ball, lol). East vs Bloomington South was another exciting game. We haven't had good crowds for awhile here, thrilled to see them coming back!

One important thing to remember (in regard to not being behind 8 ball) is that when Miller came in, nobody knew his culture, his systems, etc. Moving forward, the majority have that ingrained already, and the new guys have the upperclassmen to help, which was not available last year. Not sad about this season, not overjoyed, it was just the opening of the puzzle box, and the frame being completed. Offseason will be putting the rest of the pieces together.

Jenkins has five stolen bags, while senior Rebecca Blitz has four. Blitz's 64 career stolen bases ranks fourth in Indiana program history.

I'm exhausted after watching that. Taya Reimer is one of my least favorite players in the league, and Merchant is one of my least favorite coaches, so I'm thrilled with this!

Wow, wow wow

No quit in these girls!

Well that sucks

Too old for games like this!

Really want to see him vindicated

Are you flooded?

Great boss- now he's buying the first round!

Boss just suggested we move all work this afternoon to Buffalo Wild Wings!

If the team that doesn't turn the ball over and commit silly fouls shows up, I like our odds.

Lots of flooding up your way (I work for a restoration company with an office there- all our offices have been sending water techs to help them)- hope you're safe!

February 26, 2018 Jon Blau Women's Basketball Seniors Tyra Buss and Amanda Cahill were All-Big Ten selections for the third year in a row, the conference announced Monday, while freshman Jaelynn Penn made the Big Ten’s all-freshman team. Buss was named to the first team by both the media and the coaches for the third year in a row. She was a unanimous selection by the coaches, along with Iowa’s Megan Gustafson, Ohio State’s Kelsey Mitchell and Michigan’s Katelynn Flaherty. Gustafson, Mitchell, Flaherty and Minnesota’s Kenisha Bell were unanimous selections by the media. Buss, the first player in program history to surpass 2,000 career points, is the third Hoosier to earn three first-team honors, following Denise Jackson (1981, ’83, ’84) and Karna Abram (1985-87). The senior from Mt. Carmel, Ill., is averaging a team-high 20.8 points, 4.8 assists and 1.9 steals per game. Cahill was a second-team All-Big Ten honoree by the media for the third straight year, and the second straight year by the coaches. The conference’s coaches made Cahill honorable mention as a sophomore. The 6-foot-2 forward from Clyde, Ohio, ranks third in career rebounds, third in double-doubles and eighth in scoring. Penn is the Hoosiers’ first all-freshman team selection since Larryn Brooks in 2014. Penn is averaging 10.1 points and 4.7 rebounds per contest. The conference player of the year award was split, with the coaches going for Ohio State’s Kelsey Mitchell and the media selecting Iowa’s Megan Gustafson. Nebraska’s Amy Williams was the conference’s coach of the year selection.

Bank, institution, what's the difference? She was like the female version of Government Cheese, without the entertainment aspect

Not sure if the site is correct, but IU up on Samford in game 2 of the day, 1-0

And, another loss. 1-3 to Lipscomb today

No, he deserves our appreciation and support because he’s a Hoosier. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
