    ??? If you're outside in the sun all day, yes, it might hurt. But everyone would have some sunburn at that point regardless of skin tone.

    Troy Williams Decision

    I think the housing per diem is the team picking up the motel room charge they are staying at during the season while on the road. Out of season, and at home, I believe they have to use their salary for their own home.

    Devonte plays in the Jordan Brand Classic Regional game tonight at 5:30. The Regional game pits some of NYCs best against some of the top players from the NE US. Here's the roster. http://jordanbrandclassic.com/2016-regional-team/

    Hoosier Transfers and Recruiting Targets

    How many times will I have an opportunity to bust out a Slap Shot reference? It like having the Whales in the Stanley Cup. That happens what, once, maybe twice in a lifetime?

    Hoosier hysteria

    I did see a fans talking to him and getting there picture with him. He seemed to enjoy it.

    Hoosier hysteria

    . A little. A deflection there, staying in front of your man here. But it is still a light scrimmage so not too much.

    OT: Can someone please explain IUPUI

    Oh, and to address the grad school question. It used to be separate, and that caused some issues with the Thunderbird MBA program since it was through IUPUI and not specifically Kelley. But that distinction has since been fixed. :)

    OT: Can someone please explain IUPUI

    I will try my best to explain. The IUPU schools were created by the state in the late 60's to serve students in three cities: Indy, Ft. Wayne, and Columbus. The benefit is that a student had more majors available than if it was just a new IU or Purdue (e.g. Business or Engineering). IUPUI is under the IU system with IUPUC being a direct extension of IUPUI. IUPUFW is under the Purdue system. Students at IUPUI and IUPUC receive IU credit while students from IUPUFW receive Purdue credits. IUPUI is a distinct and separate school from IUB as are the regionals: IUNW, IUSB, IUK, IUSE, and IUE. Most of the IU system is administered through people at IUB, but IUPUI has administrative staff as well since it is roughly the same size as IUB. Additionally, the IU School of Medicine is part of the IU system and not solely specific to IUPUI. This is mainly because the IUSOMed predated IUPUI by roughly 65 years. Interestingly enough, the IUSOMed was technically a IU Purdue collaboration. Both schools wanted to have the states school of medicine program. IU had the faculty and Purdue had the building. The state made a compromise by placing the School of Medicine in Indy using Purdue's building and IU faculty, and under IU's supervison. Confused yet? If not, I could go on about some of the state programs where you could get Purdue engineering credit at IUSB or IUK, but those credits would be immediately recognized as transfer credit from Purdue by IU even though the student was attending only that IU school. Crazy,eh?

    OT: Can someone please explain IUPUI

    Correction. IU School of Medicine is separate from IUPUI as it has existed the early 1900's and IUPUI didn't officially exist until 1969. It just so happens that both are in the same area.

    UM Graduate Transfer Max Bielfeldt To IU

    So, do we call him Max EGV for short?

    UM Graduate Transfer Max Bielfeldt To IU

    Here is a statistical comparison between Max and HMP. http://statsheet.com/mcb/players/compare?p2=hanner-mosquera-perea&p1=max-bielfeldt Max is a better offensive rebounder, better with assist, has less turnovers, committs less fouls. HMP is better at getting to the ft line and blocking shots.

    ARTICLE:PSA- Indiana University Students

    From the scant details available, she went missing around 1 am on Friday. This is Little 5 week. She is a senior at IU. While it is completely presumptive on my part, there is a distinct chance she may have joined in this week's celebrations. Aren't you being equally presumptive to assume she was in the proper state of mind to utilize a gun in some heroric manner? Now, I'm going back to leaving my self rightousness from the public realm to respect the decedent. RIP Miss Wilson.

    What's Your Favorite Bob Knight Quote?

    I like two specifically. "P.S. Don't ever let your husband hold this kid over anything but a bed." - Congratulating Uwe Blab's wife. Blab played for Knight at Indiana and was notorious for having trouble hanging onto the basketball. "I was worried about losing until I looked down the floor and saw Dale Brown. Then I knew we had a chance." -Commenting on that stormy 1987 game with LSU

    Troy Williams returning to IU!!!!!!

    Yes, it is old but I still laugh each time. Maybe because of the ridiculous nature of its background. Anyhow, it is better than the "Rick Williams" joke on Peegs. As for Troy, I hope he works on his defense and 3pt shot. Improving those two areas could make him a heck of a player as he has the ability for both.

    (2015) C Thomas Bryant to IU

    Bryant is from Rochester, NY. Holt is Webster, NY. That is like 12 mile between the two. With that being the case, have these two played one another before? Or at least familiar with one another?
