Class of '66 Old Fart's Achievements

  1. Watch Fisch in the booth for the final play. He kept his composure but looks like he was close to breaking a couple of time but kept it together.
  2. So heartfelt and genuine. No false modesty or bravado. For me, winning a football national championship and going undefeated in the process is a definite bucket list moment.
  3. Maybe @Stuhoo was working with numbers that weren't in standard base 10 format. Or maybe he was cryptically using the atomic numbers of elements. Or maybe he was just plain loco. lol
  4. I'm pretty certain it is. At least, it's not a typo on my part.
  5. Mars Hill (19-3) 78-49 over Phil Campbell (13-13). 29p, 5r, 9a, 6s, 1b, 1t played less than 22 min. Listed at 6'1" and is team's primary ballhandler and can handle the ball with either hand. Very mobile and made the effort to let others score when she could just as easily have taken the shot herself. I mentioned talent disparity in Sydney Savoury's thread. Some scores of previous Mars Hill games: 78-17 over Sheffield 67-24 over Colbert Heights 68-21 over Phil Campbell (December game) 71-29 over Sulligent
  6. Belleville (10-0) with an 87-24 romp over Dearborn (3-7). Interesting these teams in Michigan have played just 9 games and in Indiana we're having girls sectional drawings this coming Sunday. Again in this game Savoury was clearly the best player on the court. Plays under control and rarely makes wild drives to the basket ending with flings in the general direction of the rim. 24p, 4r, 2a, 3s, 0b, 0t in less than 18 min. on the floor. It was 52-10 at the half and she played less than 4 min. into the 3rd Q. Running clock the entire 2nd half and the refs basically just put their whistles in their pockets and started making dinner reservations on their cell phones. The disparity in the talent level of high school girls basketball really shows up when you look at scores of previous games. As an example, some of Belleville's previous 10 wins: 78-37 over Berea-Midpark 103-3 over Glenn 76-33 over Mumford 80-20 over Franklin 93-18 over Fordson Their narrowest winning margin has been 12 points.
  7. Tamar Bates @tbates_11 Nothing but pure joy in my heart for @IndianaFootball!! Congrats to the University, Players, and @CCignetti Wonderful gesture on Tamar's part.
  8. Would be nice to think we could be a serious player in this recruitment. She finally had a game I could watch an, 86-22 rout over Corona with her stats immediately above. Have to take the stats with a grain of salt because at 6'7" she had at least 6" over anyone on the Corona team. It was 56-17 at halftime and the entire second half played under a running clock. Almost felt like her coach was just letting her pad stats because she played the entire 3rd Q and 5 min. into the 4th before checking out. Granted it was a running clock, but this game was over at the end of the 1st Q when it was 33-9. Other than when the ball went out of bounds, the officiating crew blew their whistles a collective total of 3 times in the entire second half!! As for Bean as she is called, she is very skilled going coast-to-coast a couple of times, made 2-3 3's, and showed good agility for someone that tall and just a sophomore. Not surprising that she's the #2 ranked player in the '28 class
  9. Reportedly they changed the blocking scheme on that play in the week leading up to the game.
  10. Jamie Shaw (On3) named Moody one of the top 10 performers at this past weekend's Hoophall Classic in Springfield, MA.
  11. Details on Saturday's celebration. The celebration will run from 1 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, Jan. 24, inside Memorial Stadium. Big Ten Network will broadcast live coverage of the event. Lots open at 10 a.m., and gates into the stadium open at 11:30 a.m https://247sports.com/college/indiana/article/indiana-football-national-championship-celebration-details-saturday-bloomington-271757054/?fbclid=IwY2xjawPd4H1leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBicmlkETFZSmFya2N3ZlByTjJRSm4xc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHiw5_4by2uElUgVxcX4prjNaAdfQkkoESFbX2H8--bLY-qO_BM62mIsaVFvW_aem_RodMR-zbqwECba_1ivgo2w
  12. On3's Adam Gorney predicts Hill to IU. Notre Dame and Texas A&M had also been int the running but Gorney thinks it's IU. https://247sports.com/Player/Jailen-Hill-46141491/ https://www.hudl.com/profile/25595848/Jailen-Hill
