They're starting to power wash the interior of the stadium as well.

I'm good with that. I was a freshman in 07 when he passed, and also massively depressed. As a big football fan, his attitude and his focus really inspired me. I hate cancer. And I hope he gives James a big hug to welcome him home today.

This really hurts. James had a lot of issues, but I know how much it hurt him to lose Coach Hep. That was his father figure. And we're coming up on the 10 year anniversary of Hep's death (June 19th).

He was 31. http://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2017/06/08/body-former-iu-wr-james-hardy-found-river/381430001/

I'll go ahead and post these over here too... New wrestling/volleyball facility final design approval will be submitted to the board of trustees next week. Construction should begin in the fall and be complete by the fall of 2019. Renderings should be posted during the meeting on twitter. I believe the final estimated cost is around $17 million. The only remaining campaign project is the Armstrong Stadium soccer renovation, and that is still awaiting a major gift. Golf course project approval will be submitted for the Board of Trustees as well. Final design approval should be submitted at the next meeting after this. Cost is $12 million:

I know this has been a big point of discussion for many years on here and in Bloomington, so I thought I would share this. Steve Smyers will be the architect for the upcoming renovation of the course. The project will go to the Board of Trustees later this month, and construction will begin in the fall. The project is expected to be complete in the fall of 2019. The last info I saw estimated that the cost would be $11 million.http://www.stevesmyers.com/currentprojects.html

You can see the rear wall is starting to go up, along with work continuing on the field level wall. The middle part of that will be a large window like in the north end zone. They are also preparing to install the rehab pools.

It's easy to see why he got a standing ovation: http://www.hoosiersportsreport.com/video/?video=864f3bb2e97e97ec4406c0062b45396996730075

SEZ will be done July 2018. Goal is to have the other projects (new arena and golf course renovation) finished by fall of 2019.

Goal is to have both the new arena and golf course renovation done by fall of 2019.

Antoine put up 37 points recently. Good shooter.

Yeah I get that, I'm not saying there's one specific exercise that is used, and I'm certainly not an expert. But I just never understood the uproar over that. Most strength coaches at this level use a variety of training techniques. Marshall definitely has used sandpit exercises before, as there's pictures of it on his Twitter account.

Why did people have such an issue with the sand pit? That is a very common exercise. The military uses that. Yoga is very beneficial as well, and I didn't understand the uproar over that either.

This is unbelievably silly. I'm not sure you really understand what it is these guys actually do.

Not trying to be rude here, but did you read the release with his experience listed? The guy has an almost unbelievable amount of diversity and experience in training. This is a very good thing. This is his field of study, so he probably knows the differences and what each individual athlete requires. He's trained at both the college and professional level, including training athletes in the NBA. He worked with Archie at Dayton. Frankly, I have no idea why anyone would look at his resume and see a concern...because he has too diverse of a resume? "Marshall comes to IU after spending 10 years as the Performance Director at Ignition Athletics Performance Group where he was responsible for the design and implementation of both the strength and speed programs. Ignition is based out of Cincinnati, Ohio and has trained more than 10,000 athletes, including standouts in the NBA, MLB, MLS, and the NFL. Marshall has also worked as a consultant to some of the top NCAA athletic programs in the country including the men’s basketball programs at Xavier and Dayton. Since 2014, Marshall has trained the Musketeers by leading a 10-week summer speed and agility program through a partnership with Ignition. In the summer of 2015, he implemented the Dayton Flyers strength and conditioning program for Archie Miller’s club that won the Atlantic 10 Championship."

Ha ha I know. What's funny is that the actual Cuban Center Twitter account will occasionally get angry political rants directed at them from people who apparently think that they're like the Cuban embassy or something.

I loved the 3-D replays at Assembly Hall, and it's really cool that the broadcast networks are using them as well. FreeD cameras will also be installed at Memorial Stadium for this coming season. Getting ready to install the new north end zone video board to show off those replays!

No, they do that for all the former players.

Opening night, game of the night, primetime, ESPN. Worth it. When was the last time we were THE game of the night?

North scoreboard is now completely gone:
