Scooter D

I've been to C-ville and it is really nice and the location in the mountains is amazing. But I have too much love for B-town.

Yeah...I wouldn't be here if not for work.

Come on people...if we collectively think that it will be Billy D then it will be.

So I made it to D.C. And I have seen fans for every school but IU...what gives?

I don't care where he goes as long as he goes and Billy D is in.

I'm not sure if it is the pace of this thread that is making my head spin or if I am just sick as to the thought of who the next coach might be.

Anyone else going?

Heading up to DC for the BTT...will keep my ear to the ground and report accordingly.

What was the reason to cancel (haven't seen one yet)? This is typically one of the better set of early season games.

I love B-town and I am sure that Alford has similar feelings toward the place, but I have also been to Westwood...and I just can't see him giving that up for B-town.

Billy D...but if we can't get him, any chance we can get Bo Ryan out of retirement? At least we might be able to beat Whisky then.

Correction...IU has an awful record in the BTT...does not really matter the coach.

I was curious as to how long it would take for a new "Fire (Insert Head Coach Name)" thread on here. Perhaps a pool needs to be started?

Need a win so the Hoosiers finish at least 11th so that I can see them play in DC at least once.

5 minutes...that is showing amazing restraint.

Watching English Premier League instead.

Good time as any to break rank, as I see it.

Fair points...and i agree that a change needs to be made...i think that we disagree on how those changes come about. I would never root for my team to lose. I am looking forward to DC and the BTT. I hope the Hoosier faithful show up so i am not so outnumbered.

Generally, this is a professional sports fan mentality. It is easy for a pro sports team to tank a few games at the end of a season to get better draft picks; however, as we know that once college teams lose momentum, it is tough to get it back. Highly ranked recruits are less likely to go to a team that is not consistently challenging for titles than a 1st round draft pick going to a crap team that is going to pay them a few million a year. Plus, since i am going to the BTT, i need the Hoosiers to get up to 11th so they play the later 1st round game.

Just remember that your actions have consequences, real or perceived. Stay classy.

For those going to the game, please remember that the day is a celebration of the kids and their committment to represent the university that we all love. Please leave your opinion of CTC at the door and support the kids. I want CTC gone as bad as anyone else but please remember what it is about.

...And this the year that I choose to go to the BTT??? IU playing on Wednesday (and probably losing if we are honest with ourselves, given IU's trackrecord in the BTT) and Purdue is going to be the #1 seed...and I am going with a Purdue grad...shoot me now...and someone make sure that CTC is standing beside me...FIRE HIM NOW!

Wow...outside of the top 4 and Izzo, there are a lot of over paid coaches (Jay Wright may be under paid, relatively speaking, but he does coach at a small private school).

My take...CTC is just trying to return it as he found it.

Classic meltdown.
