  1. I mean it matters in terms of seeding, but ultimately we needed to win the BTT anyway. Also, Nebraska is allowed to have good pitching. We took series' up at Minnesota and MSU. Not always going to work out like that.

    The Rock is getting new turf

    Yeah that was a good point about the candy stripes...it would look odd compressed like that. I do like the script, but it looks good on the windows (and hopefully on the SEZ windows too) so I'm fine with the new font. It looks classy but not too plain, and really as long as the field is thicker and brighter it's all good.
  3. Since the ramps will remain in the north lobby, here is where one of the escalators will go...poor guy better get out of the way:
  4. Since I can't link it, there's a good clip on @HoosierBaseball's Twitter showing the crowd today. We've had great attendance this year. We were 31st nationally last year, which is outstanding for a northern team.

    And only in America do we have throngs of people wanting to elect the star of The Apprentice as President. Until the bickering stops and people stop celebrating ignorance, we're going to get more crappy choices like Trump and Hillary.

    You're aware of how many times Trump has filed for bankruptcy, right? The guy is a buffoon. He's a reality star. He is not qualified in any way to have nuclear codes at his disposal. He is a liar. All the choices are pretty terrible.

    Like what? They will power wash the stands. Other than that, I don't think they're going to replace all the bleachers with chair backs. Most college football stadiums have bleachers. And we're lucky that we actually have widely marked seats. Places like Michigan, they cram you in there like sardines.

    IU Baseball at Minnesota 5/6, 7 & 8

    Ranked 25th: http://baseballnews.com/collegiate-baseball-div-i-poll-5-9-16/ Also receiving votes in the coaches poll. Now if we could fix our RPI (or eliminate the damn thing).

    Not being able to play them in soccer doesn't help.

    Purdue and Northwestern both came into this weekend's series with 2 conference wins...PU got swept. Boilers move to 7-37 (2-19). Bravo.

    IU Baseball at Minnesota 5/6, 7 & 8

    IU is 27-16 (12-4), not 26-23.

  13. The NFL cares. His dad was taken into consideration. It also reflects poorly on Connor because he apparently was disliked by his teammates at MSU. Also, I'm getting pretty tired of people going off on offensive rants and then whining about PC culture. You have the right to say whatever you want, but people are allowed to fire back, and it may have consequences. The only thing the first amendment protects is the government coming after you for (reasonably) speaking your mind. I mean, look at these. If you're going to put this out there, people are allowed to respond. If you post on social media, don't whine about PC when people respond. You don't think this stuff catches the eyes of scouts?...

    Yep. And there is no LIBERAL AGENDA here. Hillary lies too.

    So how exactly are you doing research if you aren't using "the media?" Fringe left wing and right wing websites are media too. Where are you looking? Are they reliable sources or slanted? Because even if you consider certain outlets too far left or something like that, going the other way isn't any better. He's not an outsider. He's not even a Republican. He's spent years paling around with the Clintons. He supported Obama. Whether that's good or bad is up to you, I'm just saying that he's full of it. He lies constantly. This is all easily verifiable. For someone who claims to not be an insider, he sure lies like a politician. Can you name one specific policy or plan that he has? Other than MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN or BUILD A WALL or MAKE THEM PAY FOR IT. Because those aren't plans. Trump sucks. Hillary sucks. I cannot believe how ridiculous this has gotten.
  16. Really good photo gallery from the IU site: http://iuhoosiers.com/galleries/
  17. http://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2016/04/01/indiana-hoosiers-basketball-assembly-hall-simon-skjodt-renovation/82469304/ My favorite new detail is that they will be incorporating the old floor and OLD (pre-video board...before the one they're currently replacing) scoreboard into the displays in the north and south lobbies. And be sure to watch the video.
  18. Spirit of 76 Club, and note the removal of all the seats on the near side:
