    Friday's Game

    Well I had season tickets but then I had to drop 1st semester to go to basic training and they took my tickets away. Now that I'm back I can't get them back!!!

    Good Guy Mike Davis

    I got the chance to meet him once when I was young. He came to Fort Wayne for the holiday tournament (some of the best high school basketball you get to watch in a 3 day strecth) to watch James Hardy play. The crowd was loving him and got to the point where they needed to pull security so he could watch in peace. Once the game was over he told the security to set him up a table so he could talk to everyone that wanted to talk to him. I don't know of to many coaches willing to halt their recruiting trip just to talk to all the IU fans.

    The Aftermath

    I leave for basic training and when I finally get access to the world half the team is suspended! Guess I'm not allowed to skip semesters anymore. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Daily MLB Banter

    [quote name="johnsoniu" post="59252" timestamp="1397275015"]Sale improved to 3-0 tonight Nips. He has half of the White Sox 6 wins. At this pace he will only have to win 40 in order for the Sox to be the .500 team I hoped they could be this year.[/quote] We will not be the 13th team in the AL as SI projected. Desperate need of a good righty in the rotation. I wouldn't be surprised to see beckham hit the trading block. Lot of depth at 2nd in the organization. But if the offense can keep producing we will surprise a lot of people. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    (2014) C Link Kabadyundi to TCU

    Not to knock this kids ability, but we gotta ask... Is this someone who can play valuable minutes next year? If he is someone that will take a year or two to be game ready we can't go after him. No need for another project sitting on the bench. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  6. Next years roster has 0 seniors. That means if we lock up all of our scholarships this year we can't bring in anyone new next year (unless kids transfer out or go pro). So IMO Crean has to weigh late round recuits impact on next season vs next year's recruits potential impact on the program. Maybe Crean isn't losing on recuits that could help the team a little next year, he is just holding onto those scholarships for kids who will be better for IU in the long run.

    #IHSAA Boys/Girls State Tournament

    My brother texted me to say Lyles got tossed from the 4A game 2:00 minutes in. After seeing my reaction told me he was just kidding. A North Carolina fan and a smart ***. What more can you ask for in a brother?

    (2014) PF Anthony Lee to OSU

    Yeah it hurt losing Noah and not getting Lee, but IMO our best team offense was ran late in the season with Noah on the bench and Davis on the court. Maybe a small lineup is what this team needs to click offensively. It will definitely hurt on defense, but I think DD can gaurd a man bigger than himself.

    Some guy on ESPN was kind of dissing Crean tonight

    These last couple of comments are so spot on. When you catch a pass vs a zone you have three options 1)shoot 2)penetrate 3) pass. That descision should be made and executed within a second or two of catching the ball. We have so many players who dribble for no other reason than because they can. Drives me crazy.

    I'm not exactly up to date with transfer rules but won't he have to sit next year if he comes here, or where ever he goes?

    Hollowell & Etherington transferring..

    Do you think Vic cared when Dickie V was comparing him to a mini Michael? It's just a reference point to where the player is at as of right now. He will form his own identity, but it is a good refernece point for now.

  17. It's not that he turned it down, it's how he turned it down.
  18. I'm sorry, but to say, "We're Indiana, we don't play in the CBI" makes Glass sound like an ass. We played like a team that should be in the CBI. We weren't snubbed of anything other than that. That is a horrible excuse. When I told somebody that was a non IU fan the response was "I hope that program goes down to the point where they are killing to get in the CBI just to do something in the postseason." Yeah, maybe not playing is a good choice, but turn down the offer with something better than We're Indiana. That sounds ridiculous. People outside the program don't think it is a reason not to play.

    Tom Crean Poll

    Exactly. Even if Vonleh stays I dont consider him a true post guy. He has more tools than that.
