    WORLD SERIES

    Its not a new fan base. Its having a team finally worth celebrating after about 7 years of not even sniffing the post season. How many KC Royals fans did you see out and about before last season? I'm sure they've always been fans just not very proud to boast about losing.

    Academic Violations at UCLA?

    The NCAA is such a colossal joke. Hanner Perea and Peter Jurkin missed a significant amount of time for the bumper sticker bs. They were swift in that judgement against us. Hard to convince me that they dont have a personal vendetta towards IU. I'd be fine with the NCAA being completely dismantled.

    If we lose a recruit to Mississippi State, I may jump off of a cliff.

    Academic Violations at UCLA?

    The stink over UNC has absolutely affected their recruiting. They aren't even sniffing the usual 5* elite prospects they are accustomed to getting. They are landing some solid talent but they usually could be put down for 2-3 McD's AA's per year. Brandon Ingram grew up a UNC fan his entire life and chose Duke!   I agree with everything else you said.
  6. Cant lose him to Maryland. I like that he is visiting during Hoosier Hysteria and will be able to compare both Marylands MM to our HH. . The atmosphere in and around Assembly Hall is second to none. Not to mention the vibe in B-Town is unmatched as well. He will quickly find out that basketball is the only sport in Bloomington.

    (2016) SG Rawle Alkins to Arizona

    It's really not that big of an issue in my eyes. His teammate Jaylen Harris recently committed to Buffalo and stole his phone and pranked him. An innocent prank at that. Sure it may have been in poor taste in regards to the excitement it may have caused within the Buffalo fan base, but innocent in nature. I'm sure his teammate regrets this more than Rawle regrets it happening. His teammate fooled the very fanbase that will be cheering for him next season.

    That'd be unfair to class him with IW and like players. His teammate took his phone and made the tweet.

    Jaquan Lyle Confirms Escort Allegations

    I dont believe for a second that this went on without Pitino knowing. I dont buy that at all.

    Laters Ricky P. Any chance Kenny J. wants to wash his hands of this mess and make the hike back north? Team him with C. Martin would be deadly on the trails. I'm a dreamer.

    (2016) PF Jarrett Allen

    @EvanDaniels: James Banks, a top 50 prospect, committed to Texas this morning, he told Scout | Story: http://t.co/Bifc1xAOGL http://t.co/aaJJVnRoSJ This may affect the recruitment of Allen. It's hard to justify having 1 true back to the basket post player in the havoc system let alone 2. Turn up the heat CTC.

    what do you think about these?

    Love the shorts ands shoes. I wish we were able to buy authentic, game worn jerseys and shorts. I can't stand the cheap made crap available to us now.

    (2017) SF Kris Wilkes to UCLA

    Looks like we're just going to have to turn up HH a few notches past BBM.

    Derek Elston - IU Director of Player Development

    This is great! His personality is infectious. I was wondering when he or Jordy would join the staff. Good things!

    Yogi CAN dunk!!

    To be honest, I'm not sure your positions on Yogi are accurate at all. Yogi is a great point guard and you will soon find out how lucky we were to have him. I disagree with nearly all of your criticisms of him. Nothing against you personally. I just think you're flat out wrong here.

    JaQuan Lyle to OSU

    He's an absolute stud. I watched him against Okafor and Jabari Parker (plus some others I'm missing) and he was the most impressive player on the court. Parker was impressive as well. Bluiett, Lyles, Lyle, Okafor, Parker, etc., we're all on the court, so that's saying quite a bit. He did everything. The thing that stuck out the most to me was that he was an intense competitor in that game. The Mac Irvin guys were trying their best to get in his head and all they did was piss him off. He did this another time head to head against Eron Gordon and completely dominated. Look for him to have a great season. If he keeps his body in shape and his behavior in check, he's an NBA player. The ability has always been elite.
