I was cautiously optimistic when they hired Archie. There have been moments when I've been disheartened since then but if some of the comments I've read on here are factual concerning having his hands tied by the administration then it puts things in a different light. I believe he'll get at least another year and I feel he deserves it.

I'm not sure I have any confidence that after waiting 3 years they'll do anything of substance. Wade basically told them to kiss off. Sean Miller seems to have done the same thing. I don't see that they really punished UNC for their fiasco a few years ago. Kansas? They're considered to be one of the top contenders for the NC this year... while Bill Self dishes out his usual bs. It's just biz as usual. It's not gonna change. I'm not saying I know the answer to the situation. I'm just saying the whole situation has given me fatigue and I don't follow it near as closely as I used to.

I'm tired of waiting for next fall. Cheating pays.

Thanks. Looked at the local box stores and didn't really see anything that peaked my interest.

Where did you find the hardware for the doors? Thinking of doing a project in my basement and wanting to make a sliding door system like that.

I'm an Archie backer but I'm in agreement with you. You can't threaten and then not follow through or digress later. People sense that lack of will. I'd rather lose by 20 with players who give their all than lose by 10 with more talented players.

If "they have to have the money" they should stop taking the B1G TV money and using it for all kinds of things unrelated to sports.

Had two weeks off around Christmas. Read several books. This was one of them. Really enjoyed it. Couldn't put it down.

Yes. Don't walk away from me! Pack your s**t and bye!

Which "basic things" do you think Archie is "fighting tooth and nail for" that "other programs have no problem with"?

Mom putting the Purdue crap to the curb for free...I like it!

His first three sentences express a valid concern. His fourth sentence was said in jest I'm sure.

Concerning Al. I think the biggest question is can he continue to be a major part of the offense against higher quality athletes/players or is he just feasting on lower level competition? Green has shown that he can. The question is... will he (Green) be mentally focused and engaged enough to be productive and efficient? I personally like the lineup with Al, Phin, and Green on the floor but then you no guard with experience on the bench... but I still like that lineup lol.

I'm a numbers nerd lol. Good stuff.

I like what you're publishing.

That mean he's an IU lock?

How does that make Indiana better?

Lander has some hops for a six-one? kid. Gets up to flush it with ease it seems.

Careful, Hardaway exceeds expectations. Least that's what I was told.

Best of luck to Lester wherever be goes. Wish him all the best. Trip to the finals=Shaq.

I'm glad you put the two key words in that comment... "and Shaq". His role was not "equal" to Shaq's.

Have to say, I don't get the infatuation with Hardaway. To me, results matter more than anything. When has he ever won a championship? College, pros, he never seemed to exceed expectations. Didn't really seem to exceed expectations as a first year college coach. I know 18 year olds don't think like 53 year olds but, wth?

He's my favourite IU player right now but those passes made me want to throw my TV in the street lol.

I believe the PGA is at Bethpage this year. He was up close to Finau multiple times off the tee (how the hell does Finau hit it that far with such a short backswing???). His mental game was definitely on! He's never been my favorite but he is without a doubt the best golfer of the last few generations and in the top two all-time. Glad I got up early to watch it.

The shot on 16 was amazing. A combination of skill, experience, and intelligence.
