    Not super surprising if you listen to her talk. There’s some serious country in that voice.

    Swagu’s son??? Looks just like him.

    Oh, for sure. And I'm admittedly not even a big TJ fan, but it very much came off in the "loogit the spunky lil white guy, how cute" sense.

    The quick turnaround is huge for the Pacers imo. OKC was absolutely worn out with about 8 minutes left last night. In the probably 60+ games I've watched this season, I don't remember seeing the Pacers look that tired at any point. Disinterested, sure, but not flat out exhausted. Feels like Rick is once again playing the long con on an unexpecting victim.

    Mike Breen sounds like he’s giving a eulogy as he signs off. Maybe one day his Knicks will matter.

    They gave Chris Denari the 2nd quarter call on Pacers radio tonight. Absolutely love that.

    “How does a guy that’s 6’2” 190 pounds makes his way into the NBA?” is a direct quote from Doris Burke about TJ McConnell. Say what you mean, Doris.

    The Golf Thread

    He usually does this within a couple weeks of the tournament that’s being played. He probably had friendlier greens, but I’d bet the rough was still in “omg look how tall the rough is” mode before they trim it for the tournament.

    The Golf Thread

    Here's a guy playing off a 7 breaking 90. I'm kinda shocked he did it, because he's struggled at this challenge at some "easier" courses. I mostly share this because I shout to anyone that will listen that this is a Mt Rushmore YT channel, golf or otherwise. Especially a few years back when he did a long Scotland series. He's a filmmaker by trade, so his take on golf content is worlds better than most for those that appreciate that type of thing.

    JT said it best, "if they finish..." There will be professionals that get danger close to 90 tomorrow and Friday.

    IU Basketball News and Notes

    Love the new video challenge rule. It’s been really good for the NBA. Now if they can just make the finger twirl to signal a review binding, we’ll really be cooking. That rivals the VAR signal in soccer for “infuriating things that players do.”

    You have to take them up on it next season. I had always enjoyed hockey as an outsider but never really cared (like you said, the overlap with football and basketball)…then I saw an NHL game down on the glass and it completely shattered my sports worldview. I spent the first period cackling like an idiot and I’ve been a full-on fan for about 10 years now. Hands down the nuttiest sport to see the pros play at eye level. Also, Enterprise is just an excellent place to see a game.

    This is the first night in a long time where it’s sinking in that the pre-football dead zone is rapidly approaching. Absolutely nothing on. I’m soaking up every minute of hockey and basketball I can for the next couple weeks.

    Caruso played quite a bit for the Lakers bubble title team. TB technically is an NBA champion too (Denver) and logged 0:29 in the Finals lol.

    This is hysterical coming from an all-time, unapologetic bunghole. I hope they give Pat the mic at every home game for as long as the Pacers stay alive.

    IUFB Offseason Updates

    This is really what it comes down to. I don't necessarily take his comments at face value. He likes to play around and I'm not sure that he's one to publicly ruffle feathers within the AD/donor pool like that. But if this actually is him making a funny statement that isn't intended to be all that funny - and to be clear I can certainly see why you'd think that - then we definitely have reason for concern.

    Bucket Game on the night of Black Friday on NBC. That is wickedly cool. That gives us two Friday night games with the other coming against ISU in September. Open with Old Dominion at 2:30 and Kennesaw State the week after at noon.

    New Basketball Staff Thread

    Cuban Center runs IUHoosiers, but other than that you’re spot on. It moves at a snail’s pace and is largely an afterthought. Usually the specific team pages with regard to roster and staff pages gets handled by the SIDs, however, and those folks are pretty good. Which makes me think the lack of updates is administrative/by design instead of lazy this time.

    Brunson is so, so good but if I’m a Knicks fan I’m furious with how often his foul baiting led to stupid turnovers. At least 2 in OT and plenty of examples of it leading to bad possessions without one showing up in the box score As a Pacers fan? Flop away brother.

    Anyone volunteering anyone else to wear the Bison suit was not in the stands for the Charlotte game last season.
