    Haunted Hall of Hoops

    It isn't about threes or nets really with him. It is about D and the rest of the game. Glad to hear he had at least one steal. Hopefully he can greatly improve those parts of his game

    (2017) PF Billy Preston to Kansas

    Yeah I forgot, sadly. I think that might be a bit better than football.

    (2017) PF Billy Preston to Kansas

    I wonder how a visit during a non home football weekend is going
  5. If you think we will have a visit with Wilkes, Do you think the comment from Waters Dad that Cal had been there three times ... and Indiana sent an assistant " was indicative of the staff backing off Tremont some?
  6. Who is the unnamed Indiana writer?
  7. "Cal was there three times and we sent an assistant. " Interesting comment that could mean nothing

    Colts / NFL Game Thread

    If you watch the first half pick i get why he threw it. TY makes the cut and at about the time Luck has to decide to throw or not TY had come around and was just past the defender. Inexplicably TYs momentum slowed and the corner broke to the ball faster. Had TY kept running he would have had a half step gap.

    Miles will go to a bigger program - he got fired for not winning enough. He still won a lot. Now NDs Kelly - that may be possible and may still be a big hire

    Ah - well at least not as bad as a delay after a TO but I get it now

    It is not only the amount you have to pay Miles to consider but he is used to having highly paid assistant coaches with him. Could PU double (maybe triple) the head coaching salary and more than double to cost for top coordinators?
  13. Cody Zeller's seemed to be similar. UNC and IU seemed ahead and sources from both were convinced. Butler may have been behind but there seemed to be some small buzz occasionally with them too.
  14. Will it be open today for people to check out?
  15. Going down for a game - I don't mind paying to park. Any suggestion on parking? We will be down early roaming around campus - when should I head over to the stadium and where would you recommend we park
  16. What does "numbers game" mean?
  17. Why would we not take both?

    This kind of feels a bit like the lose out on Trey Lyles but somehow land Noah recruitment.
  19. For me, OG is down the list for why I think this team could be really good. TB, a key starter from last years team is back. He played well against some good bigs last year and played well over a lot of minutes. JBj has to have a good year for us to be really good. A great year and we finally break though the sweet sixteen. RoJo should hopefully become that steady, more consistent player on both offense and defense. If RoJo can protect the ball and bump his scoring up a few more buckets/game then we will be a tough team to beat. OG, if he can become a starter or 6th man and continue his play over extended minutes (like vs UK) then again we become hard to beat. I think TB, and either JBj or RoJo need to have a pretty good bump up from last year for us to be great. If they are basically the same players as last year we would need OG to be all big ten just to be good.

    Nebraska's DC Mark Banker

    We have a new DC so maybe it came with him. I am pretty sure in the past we may have thought we were still signals but the way we played we just misinterpreted a yawn.
  21. To be fair, in 2 of his 3 years at UCLA Alford has gotten them to the sweet 16.

    Colts / NFL Game Thread

    Luck played better when he had the freedom to run as things broke down. He has also lost a lot of offensive coordinators and QB coaches his first few years. If things stabilize and he judiciously adds the run escape he will be alright.
  23. Would there be a time when the staff would not push for a headliner? Even if you get one headliner I think you push for another. Or is this a case where they are close with a headliner and are pushing him to make a decision more sa than normal

    Indiana defeats MSU! Postgame Thread

    I may be misremembering but while Suds had some great stretches he has some slides/down stretches too right.
