    After 3 years of Edey being allowed tp commit assault and battery on both ends of the floor with hardly a call, Ballo should never be in danger of fouling out. 
    The BIG being the BIG, I fully expect this will be the year they rediscover the whistle though.

    As bad as officiating has gotten in college, this summer has introduced me to 2 events that make me almost miss it: the WNBA and this tournament. Just atrocious.

    He didn’t lose a large portion of the fan base, he lost a very loud minority. Most level-headed people aren’t happy with the way last season played out, but understand losing a program great in TJD and an additional 1st rd pick was likely going to lead to some regression, and firing somebody after a single bad season wasn’t going to happen.
    Places like this represent a fraction of the actual fan base. I read BTownBanners, Rivals, Inside The Hall, and HSN and this place by far is the most insecure when it comes to Woodson. Woodson is absolutely in a prove it year, but way too many people bought into the false hype and rumors perpetuated by some of the bigger name voices who cover Indiana basketball.

    I have a lot of respect for Ware. He had a bad freshman year and came to IU and did the work. I think is just beginning to grow into how good he can be. He has all tools to be a great NBA player.

    Kel’el with a really good game today in a win over Sacramento. 26 and 11 and Sac had no matchup for him so he just punished them in the paint. Very nice.

    And the Hysterics decision last week to put Mike Woodson on blast, and make him look like a fool for more than an hour on a podcast only served to amplify that the fourth-year IU head coach made the right decision to move on from them.
    Podcast hosts criticizing a basketball coach is perfectly fine.  And Woodson has done plenty to justify much of it.
    But when those hosts also try to play a role in the NIL space, and gain all the access that entails, the expectations change.  That was the fatal flaw here.
     
    Hell yeah, Schumann. Whole column was worthwhile, but this is the most important part. They were also inexplicably allowed to get cozy before NIL ever became a thing. That should’ve been shut down long before July of 2021 when it got going and they started to cash in. This may come as a shock, but I’m glad the Hysteric Era is over.

    SIAP and I missed it, but I really don't get the love for Coleman Hawkins. I also think Johnell Davis isn't going to be all that at Arkansas. I'd say Ballo will be the most impactful transfer on this list if he can stay healthy, based on the role he is going to play + talent/skill. Curious to see how Storr does at Kansas and if Mahaney ends up being a hit or a miss at UConn.

    You’re making my point. You don’t need to leave him open if you aren’t selling out to stop Edey. There was one team in college basketball capable of playing Edey straight up last year and Loyer had one of the most laughable games because of it. He was a literal non-factor in the national title game because UConn simply ran him off the 3point line because they didn’t double Edey.

    Except Purdue is returning the best point guard in the conference, a Top 5 SG, TKR who has had some big games as a 4th-5th option and the best coach in the conference.
