Dave from Dayton

In Key West...wearing my Indiana gear AND MY HEADBAND! Wife is sporting her IU shirt, too. Well, I don't have a headband. Guess I will just have to wear white socks hanging from my ball cap. Seems anything goes down here. Well, except for that. GO IU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, choose me! Uh... The Canes recruited Reneau hard and are still mad about him choosing Indiana. They like to score on transition, shoot free throws and have even scoring around all the starters. They score a lot. They play decent defense. Sometimes they have trouble in the last few minutes of the game. They love to shoot threes...but do not shoot it well. They do not match up well inside against TJD and our height. Miami is inconsistent...but IU has been there, too. Depends on...well you know...execution, luck, and the whistles. If IU does not get whistled for a physical game, Shifino brings it, and our wings hold their own...it is an IU win. Could go the other way. But it won't. Indiana 77 Southeastern FL (Hairy Cons) 68 (Been vacationing and on the beaches of southeast FL for more than a week. In Key West just now. Way too many people and cars and congestion. The beaches have a lot of red seaweed coming in. And there's a shortage of material in bathing suits. I love spring and summer and fall in the Midwest. I would not live down here if you paid me...how much?) Go IU!

Kent ready to throw in the towel?

Game Day! This is the day that we have been wanting. IU starts it's NCAA Tournament quest by taking on a decent Kent State. And Erin go brah...to all Irish on this St. Patrick's day. I think that IU's inside game will win this. If the guards have a decent game it will be fireworks.

Game is in the bag. Kent(tucky) already is desperate.

Retired from a decent -sized municipality. It isn't how prepared the government is. They just want the bad press to go away. Elected officials don't want their administration raked through the coals. Settle they will..bet a beer.

Larry sux as a referee. But don't know what to think about this lawsuit. Bet the city settles with a large settlement.

You looked? Ewww...

I wonder. For instance, most recently IU struggled defensively and JHS did not do well offensively. Our lack of guard depth (and at wings) can cause problems. Maybe not so much against Kent. That's because of IU's height on the front line. But at guard, Kent is good and it could depend on turnovers. Like I said, hope JHS has a great game. Will the referees call it tightly? This isn't the BigTen anymore. Watch those fouls! And personally, I have no respect for their coach. Crean was right...Senderhoff screwed IU and flipped on he who must not be named.

I speculate that their guards will try to rattle JHS. If JHS gets into foul trouble or can't make plays, then IU may suffer. JHS has to have a good game. Galloway and others beat that attempt by crisp passing and getting the ball quickly across half cout and then inside. Just be quick passers. Kent State does like to steal. Just pass down court. And be first to the loose balls.

Kent(ucky) State 64 Indiana 75 Hurrying Hoosiers and Woodsen coming We're finally on the go. This tourney we hear fans shouting, Beat Kent from O Hi O. (Apologies to CSN&Y.)

Set the Wayback Machine to 3/23/2002, IU #5 seed beats Kent State #10 seed. I had been at the IU win over Duke at Rupp 2 days before. Then took family of 4 to witness IU beat Kent State. IU beat Oklahoma in the semi. Lost to Maryland in the final. What a run! This time, IU wins the final. It's inevitable.

I'd like to thank the Btown Bteam for this award. Wait?! What? Oh...I would like to seriously congratulate Redcamaro for being so very smart and good at predictions!

IU 73 Other 67

Go IU!!

Indiana. 76 Not Indiana 71

I bet that I will be cheering fo Indiana whenever they play.

Headed to Melbourne Beach FL, then south...Hollywood FL, Key West...2 weeks plus. Will likely hit Hell N Blazes Brewery (and sports bar) in Melbourne for the Friday game. Tonight, since I graduated from Wisconsin and IU, and I live in Ohio now...I will be cheering for...both teams, UW and OSU to beat each other up... I would rather see UW win tonight. But wouldn't mind at all if both teams lose.

You may already have a place where you can put this:

A basketball player walks into a bar. "I don't believe this town, I tried the bar down the street and they wanted to charge me a special cover charge because I was over 6 feet tall," he complains to the bartender. "Yeah, that's a stupid idea that the city council has been pushing all of us bars to do during March Madness," the bartender says. "But don't worry, I said I won't taller rate it." Actually, Jared Jeffries walked into a bar...Set the Wayback Machine to 2013: A basketball player walks into a bar … - The Columbian

Which one is Old Fart? (Probably the one on the right. Reaching to knock over the king.)

I saw Gary Rossington at The Fraze with Lynyrd Skynyrd maybe 4 years ago just south of Dayton OH. Skynyrd was perhaps the loudest band I have ever heard. Ears rang for a day afterwards. Love the music by the band. But that night it was on automatic. Seemed the life and spontaneity were gone. I was also taken aback by the video of the large confederate flag displayed. I should have anticipated that.

OK, Ole Stinky... Lookout #16. You are going down!

What is the best way to see the senior speeches...eventually?

Jumped from 20 to 17! More importantly, loved seeing IU win! Thanks to all on this site for helping pull IU and fans through the ups and downs. Salute to the Seniors. Thank you.
