  1. Billy D turned the UK job down twice and the Orlando Magic once. I'd say this has a 0% chance of happening. Not trying to be a pessimist. Just dont think this is a realistic possibility. We have much greater chances at Stevens IMHO.
  2. If VO can stay healthy, he will be an All Star within a year or two.
  3. . Hey man, I'm with ya. I have absolutely zero faith in CTC. I do have faith in the players though. I think they've proven on numerous occasions that they are able to overcome the hole the coach has put them in. Bottom Line: if we shoot like we can, we have a chance. Booing our players at home is accomplishing the same thing that our coach's bad strategy does. It creates another obstacle. No?
  4. . You know my stance on the coaching situation and you and I usually disagree on everything, but you hit the nail on the head with this one. This is the absolute worst EVER timing for a visit. The Hall will not be its usual, rocking self tomorrow. What a damn shame. SHOW UP FOLKS!!! Support the players in their last home game. It is completely possible to cheer like hell for our boys while standing firm in our desire to replace the coach. Win this game and we still have a shot at Cinderella. I for one am damn tired of filling out tourney brackets without Indiana in it. We can help avoid that this year by showing up and creating the best home court advantage in the nation. Forget about coach Crean for 2 20 min halves and focus on these youngsters accomplishing something. They deserve that much. They came to play for US!!! Support INDIANA!!!
  5. . Bill Walton has got to be the single most insufferable sports commentators in the entire history of sports or commentary. I feel god awful for the guy they keep pairing him with. You can tell the guy can't stand him. So many passive aggressive shots fired at him.
  6. . He's definitely a good coach. He's got all time great coaching ability but he's also a disingenuous slimeball and shameless self promoter.
  7. The way I look at it is that Crean has to land a Bryant or Maker. Adding one of these guys to the team shines the spotlight on his coaching abilities and leaves little room for excuses (although many will find plenty of he fails). I'm all for that. Let's get one of these boys in here and see what Crean can do. We would have 4 high school All Americans and the excuses go bye bye.
  8. That's the most likely explanation for her trivial statements but there's nothing noble about hypocrisy.
  9. I think its hilarious that his mother is "worried" about drugs and wants his son to attend Syracuse. She thinks that Indiana lied about Drug use? Has Boeheim told her that the NCAA is currently investigating his program for RAMPANT drug use and the lack of discipline for players who have failed MORE THAN 4 DRUG TESTS IN A SINGLE SEASON? Has she even looked at APR scores between the 2? Not only is her son going to be exposed to a forest of chronic at Syracuse, he's also not going to be forced to learn anything other than a 2-3 zone. 
  10. . Watch out for Iowa pulling it out in Madison. They've been killer on the road this year.
  11. Still... 25 points in the first half is ridiculous for any player in college, let alone a frosh. Glad we only have to see him for 1 year.
  12. Russell is the best frosh in the B1G and it's not even close. WOW!
  13. Football recruiting is so difficult to follow. It takes 2-3 years of huge classes before you see it translating to on-field success. That's the sole reason I think we have to keep Kevin Wilson. I truly believe we were a bowl team last year before Sudfield went down.
  14. IF its anything like him doing a show at Little 5, then yes! it would be very epic.
  15. As soon as I seen that Illinois was a dog to michigan, I placed my bet on Illinois. Book it. Illinois by 5+ in Ann Arbor.
  16. I'm worried about the game at Nebraska. This is our first true road game in a hostile environment. The Georgetown game couldn't have been scheduled at a better time. Lets hope that we get something out of that game other than a bruised ego.
  17. I dont think you're crazy I just think you are too optimistic. Holt and Perea have the potential to be very good players but they are completely outmatched (no fault of their own) by true big men. Make no mistake about, IU needs size down low to make us a contender for any type of championship.
  18. Congrats Tevin! You were very fun to watch. Sorry we didnt put you in position to play in a bowl game in your career.
