Hey fanta, how many times have these two teams met?

This thread can get to 1000 pages and IU isnt going to fire DD in one year. Look at past history. He will get probably 3 years minimum. Thats how this administration rolls and they have proven it time and time again

This right here for sure. When I watch IU basketball these days I have a pretty good idea how it is going to very early. If I dont see effort and scoring droughts for about 8 minutes, I shut it off and go on about my day. I have to assume a whole lot more people are doing the same thing that I am doing. If you dont support bad product, the product will either adapt or go under. This portal class was more than just a miss, it was a disaster. No one player is a great rebounder, so if the threes aren't falling, its over. It honestly reminds of the end year or two of crean

What bigs?

I put a 50 cent bet on Siena to win, so IU is safe. You're welcome

Enright is a pest. I love him already

I bet a very high percentage of draftkings bettors have been gotten by Terry Rozier, including myself. I have bet on him when he was in a heat uniform, and some of the clips they show of his play is blatantly obvious

Yes this is a much better excuse that it is a rigged conspiracy against my bets rather than the excuse that I'm terrible at sports betting lol

Hats for bats....keep bats warm

I absolutely love that this meme has a completely different meaning for me than it did before the coaching search thread lol

Baby Billy's Bible bonkers!!

So if leaving a college to take another job is a problem, maybe devries can change his tactics to just offer everybody that only Villanova offers

Let WVU have mccollum. They have been through a lot this year lol

So if otz and Drew were not on the list and the list became small, where does the mention of mark few come into play. Was it just few maybe trying to get bigger NIL from Gonzaga or was there genuine interest? I didn't figure pearl would want to come and I pretty much crossed off dusty in my mind after he took the Michigan gig.

I think the more we see devries the happier we are going to be with how he shapes the team, and i dont think we will ever have to worry about seeing a team not playing hard enough. If the coach is relentless, then the team will probably be relentless. If the players dont buy in, they wont be there. I definitely like what I heard. With that said, even if it was low percentage, a person that wants to coach again will take a call to maybe coach the team he rooted for when he was a kid. Throughout I really had doubts because being a president of one the best nba teams would be a tough job to leave, no matter where he would be going to. But that doesn't mean he didn't have interest. Dolson had to try. And I'm betting he kept trying even after hearing things he may not have wanted to hear. Anyways, I'm always appreciative of posters who share what they hear, whether it ends up being right or wrong, because they really dont have to share anything if they dont want to. Also, it made the search thread so much fun this go around, hell I miss it already. I'm excited about this hire, and I havent been since crean. Let's go

He's talking about zrno. He hasn't played for iu yet, just committed

With all of the craziness in the general coach search, it has been kind of difficult to keep track. Undertaker memes, one of Ted humping an inanimate object, muskie sacrificed a goat, there was just a bunch of stuff....

Sorry for the off-topic mods....but long story short, around the time devries was mentioned and even a little before that, magnanimous introduced a magnanimous story about how a booster or insider had told him that there was a huge candidate, without names. Or maybe the insider or booster told him that it was a big name but not stevens but that the coach had the first name starting with b and last name starting with m. Come to find out, he was maybe/possibly making it all up. Magnanimous please correct me if I'm wrong Edit: the insider/booster gave him a main "big wink" as confirmation for a really huge name as future coach

You should write an Indiana based novel "Season on the Wink"

A lot of feelings on this hire Sadness that muskies goat died for nothing Optimism that devries will be a grinder and is a coach that has actually coached college basketball Acceptance that if usps likes him, then that is good enough for me

Well the boosters saved some money I guess so there is that.. Devries will probably do well, but who knows

Purdue is going to have their own headlines to worry about Edit: because they are going to lose again to another really low seed!

Happy to see high point go to the next round....

I guarantee he tells you on page 2500 lol
