    OT: UNC academic scandal continues...

    [quote name="TheWatShot" post="69548" timestamp="1402154792"]Now former UNC basketball players and even football players are taking him to the woodshed on Twitter. There was a time I always rooted for UNC against Duke. I'm honestly embarrassed to think I was rooting for players who cheated their way through college and are desperately trying to cover it up. [/quote] If I was an undergrad who didn't play sports but majored African American studies, I'd sue the university. It makes their degrees worthless . Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Triple Crown

    If he has that much opposition and wins, there can be no excuses that he's the best horse in the past three generations.

    Man those Tar Heel fans in the scout board are in full denial mode ( was a graduate student there so I keep up from time to time).  Kind of sickens me how they keep pilling up the excuses.  Were we that bad during Sampson gate?

    #USMNT - 2014 World Cup

    I think unlike previous coaches Klinnsmann is running a program to stabilize a system to help get more kids to jump that difficult hurdle to play in more popular leagues and contribute. That's why I'm ok with the exclusion of Donovan. If he asks you to play, you should play. Otherwise it makes him look weak. If Donovan did this in a major soccer country he would be gone unless he was Ronaldo or Messi. That's it. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    IU vs Georgetown Dec. 27 @ MSG

    [quote name="CampCrean" post="69161" timestamp="1401905212"]Well, no one can complain about our non conference schedule anymore. Ville, Butler, SMU, Georgetown, Pitt. These guys better get ready. [/quote] I like this schedule. You only get better playing a tough schedule. Makes u humble but tough. No one was ever asking for the likes of duke and Kansas at the same time. This is fair and balanced. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    I HATE PARENTS!

    I really want to coach youth basketball in Durham,but hesitant because parents always hope their child is the next lebron. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  8. Good offense but from the video only, I felt he doesn't know the first thing about defense. I guess this is normal for high school kids. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  9. Guys I'm going to take a two week sabbatical to clench this feeling of disgust. Man very tough year for IU sports.

    IU Baseball vs Stanford Regional Finals

    [quote name="BlueDevil2aHoosier" post="68730" timestamp="1401671360"]We are in rocky waters if we can't come back tonight. The team that forces game 2 goes on to win game 2 51 percent of the time.[/quote] 51 % is not variable enough to have me concerned. Let's hope we get them on Monday and let the chips fall were they may. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    IU Baseball vs Stanford Regional Finals

    "In fairness to Stanford if the throw to first would have been on the mark we wouldn't have this discussion" - announcers.  Idiots the point is that it was a clear out.  These umps &#&#&. Pathetic.

    IU Baseball vs Stanford Regional Finals

    That was a legit third strike with the last batter but the one before was bogus.

    IU Baseball vs Stanford Regional Finals

    Two big time pitchers go down and now a great hitter.  If we make it to Omaha that would be a big time accomplishment.  
  20. Their pitcher has over 90 pitches.  The sixth inning might  be able to blow the game up.  
  21. It's showtime people. Let's hope we get it done.

    Fred Glass addresses Crean and last season

     If we had to I would like to miss the tournament once every six or seven years. I would also at least want us to make the elite 8 at least twice in that same span.  Going to the final four you need a little bit of luck but going to the elite eight depending on the type of seed we receive should at times be expected and demanded.   I think that's fair expectations for a state school that lives and breathes basketball.

    Fred Glass addresses Crean and last season

    Mr. Glass had some positive things to say that made me feel he gets where we as a program want to be.  I just think when it came to Coach Crean he said nothing but positive things because he can't publicly bash him.  It's bad PR.     Personally, I'm just going to try to take a fresh look into this upcoming season and see what comes it and judge according to the talent we have, how they mesh together, how effective job he's done in tightening our defense (too many open threes comes glaring to mind) and how the offense is distributed and adjusts.     I don't owe Coach Crean anything because that's why gets paid the big bucks.  I only owe it to my University to wish and help create the best product on the floor.

    Fred Glass addresses Crean and last season

    I hope Coach Crean does well, but if he doesn't make it to the tournament next year, I hope Mr. Glass can be objective on his decision to attain him.  That being said i think next years team will surprise us next year, because we are very athletic and our shooting will improve in all positions.
