  1. If you haven't already, I suggest tuning into ESPN. MSU and Iowa are in overtime. This game is already a classic. Huge B1G title implications here. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    These are really good, but the ones they did of Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich, and some of the other Presidential candidates a couple years ago are even better. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Sent from my Venue 8 3830 using BtownBanners mobile app[/quote] From what I've seen, knowing the entire offense wouldn't take too much. Haha sorry, that was mean...

[quote name="Stuhoo" post="32995" timestamp="1390938351"]Yes we are: I believe it is Rivals that has him as a 4 star and has about 1/2 of the B1G as having offered.[/quote] I just clicked on all 4 again and I don't see us listed anywhere. Rivals has a lot of B1G schools, but not us. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  6. [quote name="JSHoosier" post="32991" timestamp="1390937368"]We're on his final list but he doesn't have an offer? And we really do not need another wing in 2014, I would've preferred Blueitt over this guy (and over Hoetzel).[/quote] This is really confusing. We really can't afford to have him. Unless he plans on growing 4 inches and putting on 50 pounds. We aren't on his list in any of the links at the top either. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    (2015) OT Brandon Knight to IU

    [quote name="JSHoosier" post="32942" timestamp="1390881104"]Am I the only one that saw this name and did a double take? I was sitting here thinking "didn't he play for UK?".[/quote] Nope. Did the same thing. Then I looked and realized this Brandon Knight has probably 70 pounds on UK Brandon Knight. Edit: Just realized this was the football board. I was completely confused on where a 6'5 265 pound kid would fit on the basketball team lol.

    Illinois at IU Postgame Thread

    [quote name="LIHoosier" post="32840" timestamp="1390826981"]If Stan wants to even draw a comparison to Harden, he has to really improve his FT%. Harden shoots around 85% at the line and with the ease that Stan gets to the basket, he should be shooting a lot better than 51%. If Stan can get his % in the 70's in the future; he'll be a great player.[/quote] I agree. That's why I mentioned outside shooting. It was more of a comment on how similarly they attack the basket and find/make lanes that a lot of people can't. Them both being left handed probably accounts for some of the similarity too.

    [quote name="Naturalhoosier" post="32825" timestamp="1390793442"]Random thoughts: --AE is a spark plug and I hope he doesn't leave the team early (as some have speculated). I think he could be next year's 'Will-Sheehey-of-yesteryear'.[/quote] No way he leaves. That was speculation from dramatic, sore losers looking for a scapegoat. I love what he has been bringing and what he will bring in the future. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Rapid Reaction IU vs Illinois

    [quote name="HoosierReb01" post="32754" timestamp="1390777706"]If we end up in the NIT, we might as well win it! I would actually call that a accomplishment for the team I've seen so far this year. It ain't the NCAA, but it isn't to be sneezed at either. Now, if we go NIT, and we meet Bob Morris in the opening round, and.....well, you know.[/quote] Reading this, it just hit me how reminiscent this team is of last year's Iowa team. Young, dangerous, and won a couple games they shouldn't and even though they didn't go dancing, they earned some valuable experience in the NIT. If we have a 2-year span that resembles Iowa's current span, it would be safe to say there will be a lot of happy Hoosiers. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Illinois at IU Postgame Thread

    Solid game. Pretty ugly. Crowd had no energy, but the teams played with good energy. Etherington gets better every game. I still can't stand Jeff Howard being on the court, though. Hanner does the exact same thing as Howard, just a little more awkwardly. I'd call that Yogi's best game of the season by far. He was efficient scoring and had nice rebound and assist numbers. Noah was a beast on the boards, but he took like 5 shots. Pardon me, but THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. And, for all the NBA fans reading this, next time you watch a Rockets game, watch James Harden and try to tell me that he and Stan don't play almost identically. Harden is a better outside shooter, and a little taller, but those guys going to the basket look nearly identical and they both can defend anyone (though Harden often chooses not to). Oh, and I love beating Illinois. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    [quote name="bronkonagurski" post="32556" timestamp="1390769793"]Illinois is a bad team. If we had rightly beaten them in Champaign, they would be toiling with Nebraska and Penn State for the glory of 12th place in the Big Ten. They can't hit the broad side of a barn. Yet we are only up two points at halftime. I am feeling nervous about this one. Noah only has one field goal. Get him the ball. Feed the beast! Illinois has NOBODY that can guard him. We found that out in the first game. We need to get him the ball otherwise this game is going to be way too interesting down the stretch.[/quote] If we don't beat Wisconsin, we're in that 12th place boat too.

    [quote name="Parakeet Jones" post="32320" timestamp="1390701883"]Not really expecting a win in Denver tonight. It might be a good night to rest some guys and get Copeland, Sloan, and Butler some minutes. I'd love to go 4-1 on this West Coast trip, but I would settle for 3-2. By the way, since it hasn't been mentioned yet how about that PG 4-point play last night? Wow. [/quote] I'm just assuming everyone is still in awe of the 4 point play. This is looking like a winnable game so far, though. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
