Queen could absolutely choose Maryland and it wouldn’t be a surprise at all. He’s a DMV kid that Willard’s staff has been on hard since they got there. He’s made multiple unofficials there and they get his last official the weekend of the 21st. If Woody can get commitments from McNeeley and Fland, that would certainly be compelling for him. But definitely no sure thing. -
True. But to be fair, Fisher’s is 95 mil, fully guaranteed. That one is on the Rushmore of all-time $hitty contracts.

Forgot completely about the Gonzaga deal. What a smoking competitor.

Man, Cal wants no part of AH. Zero chance he’s still there in ‘28.

FYI if you have a student in your house.

Peacock Uh huh

Man, Nick Van Exel missed his era. In today’s NBA he would be a very rich dude.

I’m not a shoe guy at all. Pay no attention. But, seriously, are those basketball shoes?

Self may have lost sight a bit of the fact that McNeeley and Flagg live on the same floor. McNeeley(sticks his head into Flagg’s room): “Hey, Self said you and I will be playing together. You going to KU?” Flagg: “No. You?” McNeeley: “No.” Flagg: “What time are you going to dinner?” -

Would love to know the backstory on that deal. KU can get great players by just leaving the doors at Allen unlocked. Why in God’s name would you offer Morris after what happened at UT? That’s a world class misjudgment. -

“Cooper Flagg is more Mason Plumlee than Paolo Banchero,” is 1 of the funniest postings I have ever read. Can’t stop laughing. -

That’s a good, good class. A bunch of kids there who can really play. Akai Fleming remains crazy under-appreciated. Love that kid. -

Hoosier Hysteria - Friday, October 20, 2023

Kind of curious phrasing. Not sure it’s actually indicative of anything because that should be an HC conversation. But it always felt to me like Bell wanted Sorsby and CTA made the call for Jackson. And I’m probably in the minority here, but every time I watch those guys, my strictly fan-level eval is that Sorsby’s just flat better. Better feet. Quicker release. More accurate in short areas. More decisive.

1-4 is at least defensible. After that it looks like pulling names out of a hat. And I know people don’t like Underwood, but if they think he can’t coach I’ve got nothing for them.

I’m really trying to think of an evaluation process that would create this order.

Game Thread: IUFB @ Maryland | 3:30 on BTN
Demo replied to Hovadipo's topic in Indiana Hoosiers Football
‘ Uh, ‘cause you’re this guy? -
Sadly, you are absolutely correct. Couple of other things: 1) All of this talk in Hoosierland about how if CTA was any kind of decent guy he’d resign, and there’s a lot if it, needs to just stop. A guy who’s lived his entire life competitively isn’t gonna bail. Guys like Allen are John Snow standing alone with his sword as a million dudes on horses bear down on them. That’s their wiring. And he sure as hell isn’t gonna give up 20 million bones to do it. That’s insane. None of us would and we can’t bust him for being unwilling to be 1 of 1. 2) If Dolson’s trying to put a package together to resolve this, and I’m sure he is, he’s gonna have to be able tell the sort of people with the jack to make this happen, a) why they should do it for IU’s 2nd sport, one that’s never, ever, been better than average, and 2) how for their investment he can guarantee them an upgrade. This ain’t IUBB, where you knew you could upgrade from Archie. You knew it. And improvement in basketball is a lot faster and easier. Any IUFB HC they hire is gonna have warts. No exceptions. And football, even with the right guy, could take 3 or 4 years to fix. So, if Dolson’s gonna ask me for 7 or 8 figures for my 2nd favorite IU sport and can’t even sell me that things will absolutely improve, I’m not sure I’m writing that check. 3) There are no villains here. Allen’s not a POS and Dolson’s not some oblivious bureaucrat. Everyone understands the deal, but their interests don’t align. This is gonna take a while and it’s probably gonna be a mess. Somebody, somewhere, is gonna have to do something pretty damned impressive to put any kind of clean end to it. But, another 14 months of this? Jesus, you risk making your job toxic. and your fanbase catatonic. Ok, it’s out of my system now. Next
