Damn man! It's a message board, not life and death. People just doing what fans do. Being passionate about something that brings them joy. Try not to be so legalistic. That's the reason many people (myself included) read but don't comment very often. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

2023 SF/PF Mackenzie Mgbako to INDI-F’N-ANA
jonz44 replied to Chris007's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Dude wasn't perfect but damn, he could be funny as hell at times! When he was in a somewhat jovial mood he was gold. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app -
We will see. Those stats were put up in a far less talented and athletic league. For the sake of IU I hope he comes in and kills it but I don't see it happening. I believe the staff sees a need for better athletes and that's why they are continuing to pursue multiple athletic bigs such as Ware and Deloach. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

One of those four does not fit in that conversation. I'd be surprised if Sparks gets more than 10 minutes a game next year. I don't think the staff is counting on him to make large contributions. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

I lurk on here a lot but don't really comment to much but I have a question. I could've asked it of others regarding their comments but haven't. "I could be wrong, but he doesn't look like 5 in the B1G to me." makes me wonder. B1G teams have struggled to compete in the post season for quite some time now against other teams constructed with these type of personnel. Why would that type of personnel not be successful in B1G play? The only reason that personnel would struggle in league play is because it's being officiated differently and to me that's the crux of the matter. I'm sick of the tournament struggles. I'd like to see Woodson and staff put together a team of long, athletic, skilled players that play a fun style. Take their lumps in league play and then excel in the tournament.

I believe Recker went from IU to AZ and them later transferred to Iowa. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

Hell, I used to do that all the time. One side gets dirty...voila! I now have a clean shirt. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app -
Any Chance Purdue and Matt Painter Part Ways?
jonz44 replied to Herotime's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Not sure the style of play that the B1G and their officiating seems to embrace really lends itself to post season success. Painter's teams seem to be built for league play but college basketball has evolved. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app -
I hope we can just beat the holy hell outta Iowa. Fran is a nutcase and I think he's been one so often for so long that the league just says.. that's Fran and that's how he is so it must be accepted. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

Glad to see our guys didn't go stomp on their logo like they did ours a few years ago. Bye little brother! Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

They're not as good as everyone has made them out to be. I think when Edey is gone they're going to struggle. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

jonz44 replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Hopefully NIL will help in convincing him to stay another year. Have some cash in his pocket, enjoy college life another year, keep improving his game, definitely be BMOC next year... one can only hope. I really like his game. TJD stayed when everyone thought he was leaving...maybe Woody can keep him in Bloomington. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app -

Haven't really watched Purdue this year but I couldn't believe how much Edey gets away with that crap. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app -
I understand your thinking but I don't think that 81 team was gonna worry about anyone come tournament time. They were a juggernaut. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

(2022) - SG C. J. Gunn to DePaul

I'm interested to see how things play out when a player gets 400k to play for a school then produces at a subpar level. What will be the reaction of another player who has been at the school 1-2 years but hasn't received the same financial love. I'm thinking it's gonna be interesting.

But does McNeil have a high school side chick? A man has to cover all their bases...js! Sent from my SM-G950U using BtownBanners mobile app

I don't know if the laws have changed but in about 85 it was anything more than 25 over you went to jail. Had a cop stop me for 82 in a 45 north of Terre Haute. He marked it down to 70 so I wouldn't be arrested. On a side note, I can still remember the smell of the grass burning on the exhaust as I sat beside the road lol.

I wouldn't disagree with you. I was referring only to the style of play in the league. I think Woodson's style of play will translate to the tournament ok once he gets the level of athlete/player he's looking for. The roster hampered him this year. I also think playing 20 games in conference plus a brutal conference tournament is a factor. Sent from my SM-G950U using BtownBanners mobile app

I wish IU would just concentrate on putting together an NCAA tournament worthy team. Just let the B1G season work it's self out. Sent from my SM-G950U using BtownBanners mobile app

Rate The 2021-2022 Season! Staff + Players
jonz44 replied to Trish's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
I don't want to speak for pumpfake but I don't think they were saying Woodson is better at preparing than Knight was. I think pumpfake was comparing CMW's ability to prepare for a game vs CMW's ability to make in-game adjustments. Pumpfake seems to believe that was BK m/o and MW is in the same mold.
