  1. I think Yogi might go if he graduates (which I assume he will). Smaller guards who can defend have been doing well the past few years in the Association. See e.g. Isaiah Thomas and Nate Robinson. I think Yogi can and will make it. I also think Troy is gone. He will go late first round based on potential alone. JBJ isn't even close to being ready and I'm not sure he's got enough athleticism to ever get there. I think Rojo has a higher ceiling, in all honesty. He reminds me a tad (and I stress TAD) of Chris Paul.
  2. Illinois - 85 IU - 68 Not feeling this one (wish I was).
  3. I saw a couple posts on Twitter (admittedly by randoms) indicating that HMP sustained a knee injury during practice. Anyone hearing anything about that? If true, it's time for Burton and April to step up with EH. Anyone??   EDIT:   Jeff Rabjohns ‏@JeffRabjohns  6m http://Peegs.com  sources: Junior forward Hanner Perea suffered a kneecap injury Monday, likely to miss 2-4 weeks.  #iubb
  4. I am not a Crean lover, but we have lost Zeller, Vonleh and Fischer in the past 3 seasons (all of whom could be on our roster now). Players like that aren't simple to replace. The DD/Halloween incident wasn't exactly planned either. We're exceeding expectations by leaps and bounds, IMO, and we're better and tougher than last year (during which we would have lost the PSU and OSU games and maybe even the NU game).
  5. 1-3 or 2-2 would be a positive, IMO particularly with our lack of bigs. After this stretch, the schedule gets markedly easier.
  6. Was hoping I was wrong. Time for Emmit, Colin, April and Burton to step up. Wishing DD a speedy recovery as well...
  7. More PT for Colin and Emmit. Would it hurt us that much?
  8. I presume it could jeopardize the rest of his season.
  9. Let's hope it's just wannabes making bs up to garner followers.
  10. ITH just tweeted that IU has posted a job for IUBB's strength and conditioning coach.  Is Coach Jackson on the move??? Say it isn't so!!!   EDIT:   Mike Pegram‏@peegs Source told me this morning Je'Ney Jackson headed back to Kansas where he'll work in both sports for KU 7:27 AM - 30 Dec 2014

    Stanford Robinson's Role

    He's regressed significantly. Not sure if it's mental or

    Hartman

    Teams don't win championships without players like Heart-man. He will be a great 4-year guy for us.

    IU vs Butler MVP Thread

    I went w/ Troy - this was the first game in which the Vic comparisons didn't offend me.  Also, I think Stan played a fairly decent game as well.  This team is making progress (unlike last year's team) as the season goes on.

    Devin Davis Updates

    If he's back in class, I suspect he'll be back in Cook and, in turn, back on the team.   :biggrin:

    It's win or bust for CTC this season. If DD is physically capable, I think we will see him this year.
