  1. [quote name="protectthishouse" post="45226" timestamp="1394162212"]if they do go with jordan, shorts will get longer and jerseys tighter. it is their style. Not a big deal to me but others might get all upset[/quote] Yep. I specifically remember watching Isaiah Canaan at Murray State. His jersey looked painted on and his shorts were mid-shin lol.

  2. [quote name="CottageGrove" post="45218" timestamp="1394161418"]I think I saw that we're not even wearing them for the NIT, of NCAAT (allowing for a miracle of course).[/quote] Which makes this over-reaction (let's call it what it is) even crazier. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  3. [quote name="Ryno6284" post="45211" timestamp="1394160386"]I think my issue is that I see that as the last thing linking everything all together. I'm afraid that if the unis change IU basketball will forever change. It seems like every passing year without a banner has a little piece of our heralded tradition die. It's kind of sad and scary at the same time.[/quote] The unis aren't changing, though. We are wearing these for the B1G tournament, and I assume for the NIT. Then it's back to the uniforms that we all know and love. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Indiana Pacers 2.0

    Kind of off topic, but not really. Just read on Bleacher Report that we are headed for another lockout in 2017. From what I gathered, it will be mostly because the NBA Players Union doesn't have an executive, and the owners destroyed the players when they did have one, so the owners will opt out of the CBA and try to get more money. Still a long ways off, but this would kill the NBA...again. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    tatted up Hoosiers

    [quote name="ou812dude" post="45183" timestamp="1394156305"]I don't have a tatoo... however...as I have mentioned before...My oldest son is enlisted in the USMC, and has a variety of tatoos that range from Bible verses to American eagles with machine guns in their wings... and I think that is awesome!!![/quote] I don't think it gets much more American than Eagles with machine guns in their wings. Also, thank you to your son. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

  8. [quote name="JSHoosier" post="45163" timestamp="1394151326"]I don't see why us having outdated uniforms is such a big deal to some fans, I guess the "next shiny thing" syndrome applies to more than just recruits. Those uniforms are a part of Indiana basketball now, just like the candy stripes and the banners. The Yankees don't change their pinstripes and Alabama doesn't change their helmets, why does IU need to change their uniforms? Those outdated uniforms didn't keep us from getting Zeller or Oladipo or Sheehey or Yogi or Vonleh or Blackmon or... Recruiting is the life blood of a program and the results say our uniforms aren't hurting us, and new uniforms won't make the players play better so it'd just be change for the sake of change. An alternate from time to time, sure, but a permanent change isn't necessary and really has no benefit.[/quote] I'm with you in keeping the regulars and having alternates every once in a while. I actually love the simplicity of them. Simple uniforms are more appealing to me, personally. Anyways, in all fairness, the Yankees and Bama win. A lot. We "used" to win. Plus, like someone said, this isn't a permanent change so I don't know why everyone is freaking out. (Last comment isn't directed at you, just didn't want to make 2 posts.)

  9. [quote name="Stuhoo" post="40209" timestamp="1392610212"]This will be the most in-depth post you will see on any IU recruit....ever. Watch the video for[u][i][b] I AM MARVIN CLARK[/b][/i][/u]. You will be glad you did. [color=rgb(0,0,0)][font=verdana][size=6][background=transparent] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hIWwd-2g2c&noredirect=1[/background][/size][/font][/color] [/quote] Just got around to watching this video and his short highlight tape. I REALLY want to land him now. His tape reminds me of Jeremy's high school tape and his story has a little bit of Ben McLemore to it. Would be awesome to have him in Candy Stripes.

  10. [quote name="Str8Hoosiers" post="45129" timestamp="1394143830"]I agree with NOLA.... no reason for this... we are IU we are not Baylor... we don't need to change just because everyone else is. Some of you are saying this is a small tweak.... but it is those small changes that open the door for names on the back, infra-red... Do the players really get hyped up for this? Are they really excited about it? Does it help them stay cooler or play better? (Hope Not, Doubt it, NO, NO).... it is a marketing ploy for IU and Addidas to make some extra money. I would be dissappointed if any player said anything about being so excited to play because they get to wear new jerseys.... if you are not excited to play because you are playing at IU then go somewhere else and wear whatever jerseys you want!![/quote] James Blackmon loves them and hopes they wear them next year. I would assume that he isn't alone. So, yeah. The players get excited about them. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    #IUBB Post Season Would You Rather?

    Win the NIT. Simply because we would lose in the play in game. If we would lose in the first round (second round of the new format), I would've chosen the other way. Losing in the play-in game would be embarrassing. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I was young enough not to care about how he played. I just knew that he got buckets. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  14. The ones that Tennessee got are really nice too. As usual, Michigan's are ugly. Not sure why, but I hate every Michigan basketball uniform. Most other schools got sleeved jerseys from this, so we don't have it too bad. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Indiana vs. Nebraska Post Game Thread

    [quote name="IU Hoosier41" post="45038" timestamp="1394126238"]Agree 100% here. Coach Crean and staff see the team in practice every day. I'm sure if he thought Jurkin could contribute and help this team win then he would play him. At the end of the day, whether fans want to admit it or not, Coach Crean is doing EVERYTHING in his power to try and win these games. That's his #1 goal. We as fans might not always agree with his moves, but he's making those moves because he feels based on all the knowledge he has of this team that it is best move to win the game. End of discussion.[/quote] Lol no. He is definitely tanking... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  17. [quote name="LIHoosier" post="45037" timestamp="1394126082"]I like actually using cream, it should be the color for every home game. I don't like the chicken pox/eczema look on the shoulders and bottoms of the shorts and they should've used script Indiana.[/quote] Cream would be so perfect on our regular uniforms.

  21. [quote name="IU Hoosier41" post="45014" timestamp="1394121072"]I like all the Jordan apparel we'd get. I still wear some of the Nike shirts from back in those days when we had them. ADIDAS switch sucked. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners[/quote] The apparel would be awesome. Shoes for the players wouldn't be great from my experience with Jordans, but I think even UNC guys can wear Nike if they want. The new Adidas stuff is nice. I love the on court warm up long sleeves. I have 2 or 3 of those. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    [quote name="djsalway" post="45006" timestamp="1394119229"]Rough loss. NIT here we come. Just saw a projection for the NIT bracket having us as a 3 seed. Looks like our seniors get another game in Assembly Hall. Hope they can go out on a winning note when that occurs.[/quote] Who's the matchup? I think it would be cool to see us play ISU.

  24. It's gotta be the shoes! Uniforms won't change, but the kicks will. In that case, Nike would be better than Jordan. Actual Jordan basketball shoes are awful. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
