Had not. Very cool. Shot it off to daughter #1 who loves her some Aussie punk and she hadn’t heard them either. She also fired back an all-girl band she recently came across called VOIID that she thinks could be a thing in that world.

Your 1st shank.

You don’t find it interesting that Hubie Brown “retired” from TNT just this week?

https://www.nfl.com/news/full-list-of-prospects-invited-to-2025-nfl-scouting-combine?campaign=Twitter_nfl_cfb The full list. Rourke also participating.

Agree. The 30 sec shot clock era combined with the number of 3pt shooters now has made pace of play pretty irrelevant. 55 possession games are slow games now, really slow, but late 80’s when it was 45 secs, Jesus, 45 possession games weren’t uncommon and it was pretty nasty, particularly if you were trying to scout some game that ended 48-45.

Don’t know about that part, but it’s time for them/him to move on. McCaffery has proven for like 10 years what his ceiling is and now he’s probably no longer reaching that level. A year ago they could have had DeVries.
-
That’s the one thing I’m absolutely not worried about. Dolson would have known 11 months ago that where we are now was well within range of outcomes. I can’t imagine he hasn’t spent that time profiling what they want, researching at least some obvious candidates and developing a hiring process that he could just flip a switch on. Anyone he would presumably have interest in other than Stevens has at least 6 more weeks of their season left. So, if it’s not Stevens, and count me in the I’ll believe it when he’s at a presser in AH and not before camp, this is gonna go on for probably 8 weeks, minimum.

Will always the respect him for just openly lobbying for the job when Crean got it. He knew the Wright State HC was never getting an elite gig and he saw a chance to cut in line on the job no one wanted to touch. But, yeah, he might be actually the replacement-level high major HC. 1 thing for sure, if Scott’s introducing Brownell he certainly didn’t get his Guy. Or several other guys.
-
For sure. I don’t love the idea of a guy in his 60’s, but if they think he’s a 10 yer solution the guy’s elite.
-
How the hell did I miss this guy? Terry Reid is a British singer/guitarist who’s been around since the 60’s who I’d never heard of until about 12hrs ago. Apparently, nice piece of trivia, he was Jimmy Page’s 1st choice to front Zeppelin. What a great freaking singer. Power. Nuance. Great emotion. Listened to about an hour of him today and the guy’s bada$$.
-
Oh, yeah. Fandom abhors a vacuum and once the Woody thing broke early, random meaningless coaching speculation is as good as it gets. Though you really do need an IU level of insanity. I doubt the OSU boards went up in flames when Holtmann went away.
-
I thought of the Moses Abraham deal, too. Such a classic.
-
100%. Seriously, with the exception of maybe a Final 4, what other event can possibly generate engagement like a coaching search? It is literally catnip for message boards.

That Maryland TD catch was stone nuts.

https://x.com/B1GMBBall/status/1889806120287367229 Don’t get me wrong, anybody wanting Stevens for this gig, I get it, of course. But anyone not wanting this guy, yeah, that I don’t get. And if you watch this, maybe the next guy after him gets a mention….

Ant is cold-blooded.
-
Yes, he very much is. And I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a kid give a staff more mulligans to get his recruitment right. “Hey guys, Coach Painter is at every one of my games. Maybe you can watch me sometime. That would be really cool and I’d, ya know, REALLY appreciate it.”

IUBB @ Michigan State - Tuesday, 02.11.25 @ 9:00 on Peacock
Demo replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Can’t watch it until tonight because we were celebrating daughter #2’s 21st birthday. But got a text from a friend saying, “Woodson’s not the only 1 who should be retiring. Worst coaching job of Izzo’s career.” Quite the teaser. -
A universal suckup on your 18th post. Impressive! Not everyone can pull that off. I like the cut of your gib. Seriously, that is the 1 thing that is indisputably true.
-
Dude, if you think those guys aren’t inspiring given what they’ve done, I don’t really know what to say to that. Golden has Florida in line for a 1 seed and just kicked Bruce Pearl’s a$$ on the road and Kelsey is arguably National COY and fixed a stone dead program in 1 year.
-
Y’all have seen my entire history. Never posted on another board. Was looking for 1 to maintain ties to IUBB when we moved away from Indiana. Checked out the usual suspects and thought they were mostly trash. Saw this site mentioned on 1 of them, checked it out and thought it was just a good bit better. More collegial. Less reflexively contrarian. A lot of clearly good folks not just looking for a fight. Seemed like a fit. And in 12 years or whatever it’s been nobody’s said “Dude, stop writing books.You can make your points much faster.” So I think I’ll hang around.
-
You have no idea.

Galen has too much free time. Pick the most random dude in the Patriot League and he’d be here before Painter. Hell, Doug Gottlieb would be here before Painter.

Potential Coaches Approval Rating (Poll Closes Thursday at Midnight)
Demo replied to CrossboneIU22's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
2 things: 1) When you look at both the poll list and the supplemental list that Crossbone dropped in, it demonstrates USPS’s argument that there are a bunch of guys with the ability to do well with the available resources here. 2) Yeah he’s not coming, but who in God’s name disapproves of Jay Wright? -
