I have a real good friend here in Ohio, that is a rabid OSU fan. He is a High School and Middle School coach of basketball, and conditioning. He is pumped that IU got Coach Cignetti. Thinks he will be great for IU and for the Big Ten. But what does he know since he is an OSU fan? Actually the guy is sharp and he is right.

Sorry, missed where it was posted it was from campus. That definitely is what I was looking for. Hard to believe that I would have missed it. I am a technical contract reviewer professional. Kind of the opposite from the silliness I post. There are enough rumors going around and I wanted to step past that. I was looking for someone to comment that there actually was an X siting. I read your post that 'some people said'...and didn't see the 'campus' reference. Maybe it was added as an edit after I read it. I did not intend to 'dismiss' you or your post. I was looking for something other than 'some people'. I strive to say things that are not personal. I discuss posts...not the poster. My favorite saying might just be: Listen with the intent to understand; not with the intent to respond. It is difficult, sometimes, for me to do that.

I am not going to derail this thread. So read this if interested in Musk's bigotry and politics. Elon Musk prepares to walk away from the smoking crater that was Twitter (dailykos.com)

Would be happy to help. But not on X. How about Mastadon? I gave up the bird when Musk gave Democracy the bird and the shaft.

Really looking forward to beating Puredoo and winning more than 3 games a year. Phukin AAA! Good luck Hoosiers!

Nope. Every darn one of them had at least one loss in football and/or basketball. Incompetent. I'm telling you. And those facilities...as soon as they are remodeled or built, they get older. With all the money we have...I mean, even Indiana State's team name means something. For crying out loud. /s

Indiana Hoosier Daddys 72 Turtle Soup 68 Maryland has won 3 in a row! UMBC, South Alabama, Rider? Oh, crap. Powerhouses all. I'm scared. Ha. Be Ware. IU Reneau outa da Hall. Put the X on U. Just Galloway home..get outa heya. Mac M'blocku... That's all I have to say about that.

Well, with no attributes, how can we know what you post is based on anything?

I was in Rupp Arena for the Duke game. And then again for the Akron game.

Being a Freshman at IU was a very long 6 years of my life. With over 200 undergraduate credits between IU BS and UW-M BS, that's a lot of BS. That plus there were 4 years of military stuck in there somewhere. I would fall on the sword, but I may not like being addressed as Father Time by the youngins. And I think that the mainframe computer with the decks of punch cards for programming may have changed some. Well, maybe they would accept me in Cultural Anthropology as a TA. I've got some insight to the late 60's and the Watergate and if I don't remember it all I can make it up. The transition to Assembly Hall and the early years of RMK were far out.

Actually, I do understand the silence. I wasn't looking for rumors or the fall-back position of Big Ten universities. I was looking for someone on campus that had seen Xavier very recently. It is completely understandable if there is no answer to my question. No answer or no update is just that. No more. It's cool.

Last night (Tuesday) Maryland 103 vs Rider 76. Jordan Geronimo didn't miss any of his six field goals and was 3 of 5 from the free-throw line for 15 points for Maryland (4-3). Rider Broncs vs. Maryland Terrapins Results, Stats, and Recap - November 28, 2023 Gametracker - CBSSports.com I'm still wondering and would appreciate some insider observing Xavier Johnson very recently. Is he ok?

Maryland has doubled Rider's score in the first half. 46 - 20 with 4:20 remaining. Geronimo has shot 5-5 and has 13 points.

If you want to see Maryland basketball, they play Rider tonight (Tuesday) at 7 on BTN+.

Losing at football. It's Indiana! That is Indiana's real team identity built over decades. To fight against the uphill demographics, the money, the politics in the state capitol, and the above tradition is tough. The demographics, for instance, is recruiting the same ground as Purdue, Notre Dame, OSU, MSU, UM, UI, UK...and not being in the state capitol. I want to see the plan that Dolson has to make Indiana a great football power. Serving beer, fixing bathrooms, making facilities state of the art, getting more money from Peacock and BTN, and hiring a good coach are reactions and not a plan. Have the trustees seen the plan? Is it available to the public? Moving the state of Indiana very close to the southeast coast would be an important part of any plan. Maybe Virginia Beach or Hilton Head.

Has anyone seen Xavier walking around today?

Maybe this guy will help IU one way or another.

I read the last word in the above sentence two different ways. On the third time I think I got it. (6) Peter Frampton Do You Feel Like We Do Midnight Special 1975 FULL - YouTube

Every game, I envision them getting run over by a guard on a bike. It's a vicious cycle.

Dolson says: If you want it, here it is, come and get it Mmh, make your mind up fast If you want it, any time, I can give it But you'd better hurry 'cause it may not last Did I hear you say that there must be a catch? Will you walk away from this school and this money? If you want it, here it is, come and get it But you'd better hurry 'cause it's goin' fast (6) NEW * Come And Get It - Badfinger {Stereo} - YouTube

Nooooo Waaaaay!

This Friday, Indiana (5-1) begins the journey into the Big Ten Conference season by hosting Maryland (3-3). Maryland has lost to Villanova, Davidson, and UAB. They play Rider at home Tuesday night. Last Saturday, Maryland won against South Alabama 68-55. They struggled from the 3-point line for the whole game in their worst showing from there this season. In the second half they went inside. Only four Maryland players scored. These guys scored...Reese, Scott, Young and Geronimo. Maryland overcomes slow start to defeat South Alabama - Testudo Times Do not ask why Pomeroy has Maryland at 57 and IU at 75. (Spoiler alert: Could be Coach Woodson's brute force platoon substitutions for long-term seasoning. That stops any padding of scores and may affect Pomeroy standings this early in the season. Pomeroy does not mean much until later in the season.) Thinking about Xavier's injury. And Reneau's back. And Ware's performance in the Big Ten. And hoping that Cupps grows lots taller in the next few days. Did you notice that Galloway played the most minutes and scored 4? And Mac played 31 minutes and scored 18!

Our 2nd platoon is not swarming for rebounds. Not moving on offense. Ugh.

Focus on rebounding is better. Liked getting the ball in early to have Reneau score in the lane. Looking good.

After IU and working for a while, went to UW Madison for Engineering. Season ticket to hockey with my better half was a riot!
