    NCAA MBB Transfer Portal

    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

    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

    NCAA MBB Transfer Portal

    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.

    Sounds like he's familiar with a spread offense. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app

    Indiana Players Now In The Portal

    I believe Recker went from IU to AZ and them later transferred to Iowa. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. 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
  12. 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
  13. 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

    IUBB vs POTFB - Saturday, 2/4/23 @ 4:00 on ESPN

    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

    IU/Kentucky Series to Resume

    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

    NIL and IU

    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.

    Xavier Arrested...

    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.

    Big Ten basketball is a mess

    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

    Big Ten basketball is a mess

    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
  25. 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.
