Class of '66 Old Fart

An absolutely unbelievable 2-years of IU football after 50-yrs of mostly oh, lets schedule IU for our homecoming game.

So much catch-up posting to do. Hoosiers need to re-group in a big way to knock off PSU (8-1) and avoid an 0-2 start in conference play. PSU's only loss was 77-65 to Providence. PSU averages 83 ppg with a +13 scoring margin. They shoot 51% fg and 38% on 3s. They have a +2.3 rebounding margin and only turn the ball over 8/gm and get 8 steals/gm. They have 4 players averaging double figures. They have 3 players who average 45%+ on 3s but as a team they average less than 20 3-point attempts/gm.

If we can't bounce back from Saturday and win this one on our own court................... 81 Some team from some state out east 77

How about Charlie Mother-Becker.

Don't hold your breath. One report I've seen said a 12/29 return was optimistic so sometime in January is probably more likely.

Opening our B1G season on the road at Minny (4-4) who have lost their last 3 games. They average 73.5 ppg shooting 46% FG and 31% on 3s. They hold a +7 rebounding margin. Cade Tyson leads them in scoring at 22.4 ppg. Jaylen Crocker-Johnson their only other double digit scorer at 12.4 ppg. Crocker-Johnson (6’8”) is their leading rebounder at 9.1/gm.

Friday night Bishop McNamara defeated Santa Margarita 71-67. At the end of the 3rd, Bish McN trailed 50-43. During the 4th, Moody went on a personal 5-0 run and Bish McN got the win. He finished with 24p and was named game MVP. Saturday night No. 18 Bishop McNamara (Forestville, Md.) stunned top-ranked Sierra Canyon (Chatsworth, Calif.) 57-52 on Saturday night, erasing a 19-point third-quarter deficit. Moody did it again with a personal 10-0 4th Q run.

God, I missed you boys and girls. Well, maybe not all of you but damn it's good to see the site back up and running. After the last few days I was sure btb was doa. Keep your fingers crossed the underlying problem has been fully resolved.

If he doesn't win it after last night.........................................!

Waaaaaay tooo early but.............. I'm not 100% certain but I believe Landon is a brother to the Lampley sisters both of whom we've offered although '25 Jaylah didn't put us in her final 6. The other offer is to '26 Lola Lampley.

#28 in your hearts.

The Daily Hoosier - Cory Provus, Robbie Hummel, and Andy Katz will call IU at Minnesota for BTN on Wednesday evening (7 p.m. ET).

Kyler Staley reported last night that Drew and KJ were on the road watching one of the top prospects in the state. He didn't name names, but '28 Noah Washington and New Albany had a game last night so I'm making a wild guess this is the prospect.

@jermhoosierfan you'll love the sweetness of my dulcet tones. I'm planning to jump from a strong Brooklyn accent to a deep south drawl and maybe throw in a little Canadian or two.

I don't think this story from Lasley is paywalled but if it is, in a nutshell Ristic could be on the court sometime this month. https://www.on3.com/teams/indiana-hoosiers/news/indiana-freshman-guard-aleksa-ristic-getting-closer-and-closer-to-a-return-from-injury/?fbclid=IwY2xjawOb2r9leHRuA2FlbQIxMQBzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEegm-vVTjImoLlCHa_ImZqq_EaFv7CO_naGB8F1nrL8K7usbCbNyBaQ-1Ltvs_aem_Wgo7kGxLjzHpWNTz2LDXeQ

I'll be on the radio with Fisch as usual. Can't stand Vitale at all.

Our 7-0 women’s bball team faces 8-0 Iowa State Sunday at 1:30 ET in the championship game of the Coconut Hoops event. 6’3” Audi Crooks is a force in the middle for ISU and I’m not sure we can stop her without our bigs getting into early foul trouble. She averages 25 ppg and 6 rpg. As a team, the Cyclones shoot 51% from the field and 36.5% on 3s. They average 93 ppg and have held their opponents to 53 ppg. They average 44 rpg vs their opponents 28 rpg. Radio
