  1. The possibility of playing in the Rose Bowl if UCLA and IU ever play in California? (Not the one on New Year's Day, though.) Or, or, maybe...LEO? Do I get another guess? No? Well, what should IU do? Recruit Indiana? Yeah, that's it. Go head to head with Purdue and Notre Dame. OK, go out of state? Been there, done that. Or, once again, look very closely at the OC and DC and those in charge of recruiting. Or consider enlisting a really good plan to get better at certain positions. Or look closely at why IU does not have stability at the QB position. Or think about why IU runs a plethora of back up the middle 4 or 5 plays in a row and telegraphs to the other team that we are doing just that. Or get a quality safety in the defensive backfield...and train him properly. Or find out why IU cannot get or train linemen to protect the backs. And after that, I would realize that IU is not yet ready or prepared to make the investment and to get the personnel in the right place to make IU really competitive in B1G football. Reflect on what IU has done with the last 3 football HCs. After OSU's loss to UM, again...do you think that Kevin Wilson as OC over there...might just be looking for a move? /s Maybe, we could just get Urban Meyer over here for $20 million a year and cheat our way to at least being competitive. /s But the latter would take donors stupid enough to cough up $100 million over the next few . Yeah, Cuban or Musk or Gates or we will do that. Right? /s Actually, just maybe we should be more focused on the primary purpose of this public institution of higher learning. Can we help educate every individual for the greater good of individuals and society?
  2. I don't care who wins between OSU and UM. Went for a walk in a park with my better half during the halftime and until now. POTFB!
  3. Pretty much the whole team looks one step slow. Xavier has some flashes and looks good most of the time. But Jackson State's guards are quick. Wish Kopp and Shifino would hit something. Hope TJD clicks in the 2nd half.
  4. OMG! TJD with his hands on his lower back! Probably how he hurt his right hand.
  5. Sure is good seeing Xavier J. hitting stride! Stay healthy team! Let's get some threes! Go Hoosiers!
  6. Changing my prediction. I didn't know Jack at the time of my previous guesstimate. To me, the important information is that Lil Rock beat Jack by a few points. However, there are more and more questions about this game, today. Jack 56 Indiana 84 likelihood of cold turkey sammy for lunch 100% likelihood of TJD and Galloway and Leal being healthy enough and playing ? likelihood of IU and Coach Woody looking forward to the big one next week ?
  7. Indiana Hoosiers 31 Tricycle-riding incels and pizza runners 24 POTFB! IU unleashes our secret weapon. Tom Allen coaches in lieu of cheerleading? Our QB gets protected? IU has a running attack? Our defense doesn't allow the visitors to get a lot of first downs? The defensive secondary doesn't rely on tackling after allowing completions? IU gets a boost on turnovers? IU makes no mistakes a certainly doesn't get flagged for any? Fans stay in the Memorial Stadium and skip the tailgating after the half? IU just takes the Old Oaken Bucket and keeps it!
  8. Hope you get your stuff together, soon. That's got to be a pain in the *rump. Just remember that your sh!t is that doctor's bread and butter. And don't let that orange-looking fellow get too close a peak at your wounds. I hear he eats that burger-like substance like it is fast food. Just don't link any videos of your surgery. Hey, don't diss our team. They be winning this year and going places. If Xavier J keeps his head then maybe Kopp with start hitting more than 2 3's a game. And Race is going to do what Race does and not only be a glue guy but will complement TJD and hit 2 3's a game, too. And those freshmen at the end of the year won't be freshmen anymore. And when IU beats the Jay Hacks...you will see Coach Woodsen actually get excited. Wouldn't that be something to take the Lax out of the ExLax? Well, you know what I mean? Amirightorwhat!?
  9. As long as you aren't in the back of the balcony, you will enjoy the game. It is about atmosphere. That and can you differentiate the players...and yes, from there, one can read the numbers on the shirts. The tradeoff of money for location can be extreme. It's a compromise. But don't let it spoil the experience. Enjoy it. Take lots of pictures. Be safe. It's a treat for all. There was a time, before Assembly Hall, in the old Fieldhouse...was at the end of the court in row 3. Joby Wright and George McGinnis...bigger than life! Leaping and flying towards the crowd...and slipping on the dust and sweat. Eyes wide open on those super-big players running right at you. That is a different perspective...as a student.
  10. Yeah. There's a Community Jazz Ensemble tonight at Sinclair Community College at 7. These concerts are great and are a lot of fun. There's only one a year. Indiana beating Xavier is a slam dunk. Right?! Recording it. Was a tough decision. Wife and I both graduated from IU in '77. Can't jazztify it. Watching a recording of an IU game is not the same. Oh, well.
  11. After predicting IU's score last week, I have to continue this streak. No problem. I feel extremely confident that IU will score. Hoosier's offense: 17 Hoosier's defense (aka MSU): 27 Me (nudge, nudge, wink, wink): 1
  12. MSU is one step slower getting to the ball than UK, so far. And MSU is being affected by UK defense, believe it or not. Looking forward to seeing latter stages of this game and Kansas at 9:30. Not so much Xavier hosts Fairfield tonight at 9.
  13. Xavier hosts Fairfield at 9...zzzzzz...tonight. KY at Michigan St. ... cheering for both to lose...with UK losing by more. I guess. On now. Kansas playing at 9:30 tonight. Interesting stuff.
  14. Hoosiers 75 Mouseketeers 68 I heard that Sean Miller hired Archie for the Indiana game. He's to sit on the bench, holding a clipboard, and shaking his head. (Muttering something about 'recruit Indiana'.)
  15. Speaking of a satirical account of naive illusion...hmmm... Don Quixote? No?
  16. I thought this was a bye week. Doesn't an OSU buy our appearance? We need a volunteer to QB. (Speaking of the aforementioned service.) I was envisioning Barrel Rick or Aloha something... I know for a fact that both Ohio and Indiana have laws against school bullying. How about a class-action lawsuit against an OSU DL, their OL, their backfield, their backs, their coaches, their fans, against an OSU, the B1G, the NCAA, their politicians, the MSM,... Who did I miss?
  17. Well, it is unanimous. The posters on this site have extreme confidence in IU's football team. We all feel certain that IU can hold an OSU team under 75. I woke up this morning and I got myself a beer...(68) The Doors - Roadhouse Blues, BEST version (live in N.Y. 1970) [music video] - YouTube "...everything's 'messed' up, as usual!" (almost a direct quote of what Jim Morrison said.) Sunday at noon, IU kicks Rutgers in the ... ahem... B1G title game on BTN.
