Good.

Ha yeah I figured; that's why I edited. I'll go ahead and post it and see if everyone can see it.

I still can't link to social media content from the app (or at least it's not showing up for me), can someone post the Raise the Flag ad from the IU account on Facebook or Twitter? It's very good. The other shorter versions are good as well. IU also put up billboards over in Louisville, which pleases me as I cannot stand UofL.

Apparently the commercial is airing, but I haven't caught it yet!

You can see the basket. That wood railing will be clear. There was a rendering when the project was first announced that showed how the sight lines were from up there. You may not see the bleachers or behind the basket, but you should be able to see the court.

View of the North goal/larger ADA seating area (from the Spirit of 76 Club): One of the south stairs...escalators will surround: South lobby: North lobby:

Breaking news: The $180 mil for planned facilities projects has been immediately redirected to a demolition fund for all athletic facilities. Any remaining money shall be used to engrave a tombstone reading: "Here lies Indiana University athletics - We suck." Seems like a wise decision.

Update: We have 2 coaches and 11 athletes headed to Rio for the Olympics in swimming/diving. It's been a banner year for Looze and Indiana, as Looze became the first swimming coach in Big Ten league history to be named both the men's and women's conference coach of the year during the same season. Looze has won Big Ten Swimming Coach of the Year honors a total of six times – four for the men and two for the women. Under Looze's guidance, the Hoosier men placed ninth at the 2016 NCAA Championships with a total of 180.5 points and finished as the top Big Ten team at the NCAA's for the first time since 1978. On the women's side, Looze led the IU women to their best finish ever at the NCAA Championships, placing seventh with a program-best 228 points. Disband the program.

What should we have offered him? Smith made more here than he does at ASU. Glass asked him what will it take to keep you here? Told him to name it. It didn't matter because it's a higher caliber job. IU fans need to understand that the B1G is a middle of the pack baseball conference. We have really upped our resources, but he was never going to turn down ASU. That's one of the best jobs in the country.

Yeah I don't even understand his argument. What is the excuse? That Louisville is good at baseball?

What? Louisville has done great in the ACC and was a national seed this year. Soccer is like 3 years off a national title, both the basketball teams had good years, and I have no idea why you are saying the swimming teams stink. That's just...false. Lilly King says hi. Volleyball has struggled, yes.

We hired a guy who was one of the top assistants in the Midwest with all kinds of local recruiting connections. As such, we have by far the highest ranked recruiting class in the B1G next year. Also, it's pretty easy to sit back two years later and say "hey why didn't we hire the guy who just won the CWS?".

I agree. Just get tired of "so and so is terrible."

Concessions already look nicer...each stand will have 2 more points of sale than before. They will also have the menus on monitors next to monitors showing the game.

I'm sure there are people getting paid lots of money to think of that stuff. Besides, only the bottom half of the south wall will have light coming through, as the top half will be enclosed into a club area. And then you have the lobby filtering some of it.

I don't think he will be the starter, but "dude is terrible" is crap level analysis. He has some tools. You don't just run through the entire Ohio State defense if you have zero talent. His arm strength is going to keep him from starting.

Crap! Didn't see this thread.

I'm going to start this over here too because I think the man is about more than just football. He passed on 9 years ago today, and I know he meant a lot to me and a lot of you too. Go Hoosiers.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, When funds are low and the debts are high, And you want to smile but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is ***** with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about, When he might have won if he'd stuck it out. Don't give up, though the pace seems slow - You may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than It seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup, And he learned too late, when the night slipped down, How close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are - It may be near when it seems afar; So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.

9 years ago today. I think he would be so proud of his program.
