Banksyrules

I know they went to the sweet sixteen three years ago but since then her teams have been far from stellar.  It's not their formations that are the problem it's just we have not recruited real well.  Our MB/Libero's are very very short (compared to the rest of the big ten anyway) and are not really a threat to go up front to sneak in a spike to keep other defenses honest.   Our right side hitters and opposite are not athletic enough to dominate the front.   Case in point, when we had Benson in our lineup we caused a lot of damage.  We need to recruit better athletes.  She should try to build up tall athletic projects.   Sadly because of this she might get fired.  But I'm not sure how much glass cares about women's volleyball.  

Night and day with our baseball team.

    This type of justification is one of the reasons I left that sight.

If we ever get a competent Coach , the recruiting will take care of itself.  Jus tired of the rest of the country insulting our league.  

3 Big Ten teams in the elite 8.  None for the ACC- that makes me happy.  

Contracts aside do u think coach miller from Dayton is a good enough coach for IU ( skills wise )? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

[quote name="bronkonagurski" post="54264" timestamp="1395884230"]I understand that but if you become classified as an actual employee of the university then I would think the scholarship itself could be categorized as their "salary" for tax purposes. I'm just wondering if that could be an unintended consequence of these efforts even if getting formally paid above and beyond a scholarship is not their top priority. [/quote] I don't think it will happen. It's a long way down the road but I would think that the IRS would come up with a classification group for them. Like how churches and nonprofits don't get taxed under certain circumstances. But who knows its at least ten years from reality. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Not all of them are looking for salaries, at least that's what I'm hearing from my Northwestern friends.  It's more of a sense of getting paid if you get a life long injury(like football injuries), or having the ability to hold a scholarship longer then one year.     I'm for that considering a lot of athletes just get bumped to the side for the next great athlete.  That's how the SEC dominates so much in football, because they regularly kick people out to the curb, who can't afford to pay tuition on their own.  

:o  :help: 

Man I had high hopes that this team would be my medicine for a horrible basketball season.  

Not arguing how good he is but not sure it would be a match.  We need big men in the worst way.  

How tall is he?  

Guys I took a power nap and this happens.  What the hell?

Yeah, we all knew this was coming. Still tough pill to swallow.  

It seems that our problems last year are carrying over this year.  Let's hope they can fix that.  

Wichita State winning.  We can't always look at the past to define us.  

$ %#%#&^

Still no outs?

Let's goooooooooooo!

Teams like KU, Ohio State, IU, etc. [url="http://collegebasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/03/22/report-virginia-techs-trevor-thompson-to-transfer/"]http://collegebasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/03/22/report-virginia-techs-trevor-thompson-to-transfer/[/url] Trevor Thompson, a seven-footer that started 11 games for the Hokies as a freshman, will be transferring out of the program, according to a report. He averaged 5.0 points and 4.7 boards. Thompson was a three-star recruit in the Class of 2013 out of Indianapolis, with interest from programs like Arizona State, Tennessee and Xavier, according to Rivals.[/quote] I'll take those numbers. Great for depth anyway. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Haha.  So glad Syracuse got some humble pie after what they did to us last year.  Yes I'm still bitter.
