    A Case for Dusty May

    This is me throwing my hands up in exasperation

    COMPLAIN HERE!

    I don't think the NFL is rolling things back. But, college basketball still has a chance.

    COMPLAIN HERE!

    I'm completely fed up with calls being reviewed. It's reached NFL levels of excessiveness: both time spent watching replay and the number of calls being reviewed. It's the main reason I rarely watch more than a few minutes of any NFL game. NCAA needs to institute a time limit for review, 30 seconds from when replay starts. It would also be beneficial to emphasize review should be minimized and not the default - as it's become for like every out-of-bounds call.

    *RANT HERE*

    I dunno, they routinely get 1k+ watching their post game live stream on YouTube. I agree though, gotta be another reason for the lack of tickets.

    Isn't that the game Assembly Call is doing their live show?

    IUBB @ Wisconsin - Friday, 01.19.24 @ 8:30 ET on FS1

    Fire Mike Woodson tonight, this is beyond embarrassing.
  7. I guessed that it was an inadvertent whistle? Did you notice that same ref doing a little "gotta get warm" shuffle-run just after? If it was inadvertent, it wasn't the only blatantly wrong anticipation call during that game.

    Wow, Maximum Gizzi - now that is an all-league name right there
  11. Is there a radio broadcast for exhibition games? I'm guessing no, especially running up against a Colts game too.
  12. Just in case others might be in the same situation as myself, not knowing about this podcast, I wanted to reference it here. It's the Beyond the Big Ten podcast, most episodes are IU focused (Ball from Assembly Hall) and are hosted by Christian Watford and Derek Elston. You can find it via this: Linktree The most recent episode was a post-season interview with Miller Kopp. It was very interesting, especially because it was a player to player conversation - which is a bit lacking in most IU coverage. It was also pretty funny hearing confirmation about Crean literally never shooting once during Christian and Derek's time at IU.
  13. Wasn't that also the infamous "shorts" photo trip? Yeah, Tom Crean is something else ...

    Non-IU NCAA TOURNAMENT GAMES

    Hard disagree - dude looks like a brontosaurus from some 80s cartoon. Those things are like millions of years old.
  15. My senior year at IU I had a persistent (like sick the majority of 3 months) sinus infection. I had my tonsils taken out 2nd semester, and haven't been sick more than 5 times since - twenty plus years later. Minor surgery, but still surgery, to remove tonsils.

    I'm sure you saw the kid rushing the court with his MacBook right?
  17. B10 officials call that one a foul on you

    Xavier Arrested...

    Just in case anyone is thinking otherwise, I can't see this happening on the "city" part of N Walnut. At least per Google Maps, North Walnut is still named that all the way out to I-69. Once you get beyond the last gas station, heading North out of town, that road becomes quite rural quite fast. So, I don't see this being _as_ alarming as doing 90 in front of Sports or something. Disclaimer : I was a passenger in a Mitsubishi 3000gt that was doing around 120ph on that same stretch in 1999. We were headed North, merging onto 37.
  19. Baylor, a 1 seed, is playing North Carolina in the NCAA tourney on a Saturday in a venue a relatively short drive from Waco. And there's like a dozen fans there. What a joke.

    I wish I had been cataloging the number of highlights-going-to-break where Parker Stewart has been on the wrong end

    Not since Hollowell will I be as happy to say adios to a "player" as I will be for Parker Stewart
