Class of '66 Old Fart

LOL. The Stat Tracker says C. Hartman has played 8 min.!!

10 of FW's 18 pts. have been in the paint.

I thought it was 2016 in Ft. Wayne, not 2015 in Maui.

More woes for Missouri basketball. They thought they put their problems behind them in August and now this today. STATEMENT FROM MIZZOU ATHLETICS The University of Missouri has received allegations of potential academic rules violations by a former tutor in the Athletics Academic Services area. Consistent with our commitment to rules compliance and to operating our athletics program with integrity, we are conducting a review of the allegations. We also have informed the NCAA who is working with us on this matter. To protect the integrity of the review process, we will not comment further at this time. DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS JIM STERK "While we recognize that there will be many questions regarding this situation, these investigations take time to ensure that we do it the right way. As always, our mission is to uphold the highest standard of academic performance and ensure the proper conduct with all of our programs."

From ESPN: Morehead State has suspended Sean Woods with pay, effective immediately. "Resulting from complaints received, the institution has begun an investigation involving the head basketball coach. While we continue through the formal process, we believe it is prudent to suspend the coach until the investigation is finished," said Brian Hutchinson, director of athletics. "Assistant Coach Preston Spradlin will serve as head coach in the interim until the investigation is completed. We have full confidence in Preston and his ability to lead our student-athletes both on and off the court. Since this is an ongoing process, we will be unable to comment further until this comes to a conclusion."

Ditto!

Great tweet from Stewart Mandel of FoxSports: If ND has to vacate 2 years' wins bc a few students committed fraud, shouldn't UNC have to vacate 17 years of wins? An excellent point. Wonder what the NCAA's answer would be.

Coleman is expected back on the field for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Guess maybe ND football just isn't that high and mighty any more in the eyes of the NCAA to recommend forfeiting 2 full seasons.

ND fans are already livid the way this season has gone; they'll be jumping off cliffs over this. Just saw same thing. This is from NDInsider: http://www.ndinsider.com/football/notre-dame-committed-ncaa-violations-may-have-to-vacate-wins/article_83158fda-b04b-11e6-8785-9f5a06270876.html A former University of Notre Dame student athletic trainer violated NCAA ethical conduct rules when she committed academic misconduct for two football student-athletes and provided six other football student-athletes with impermissible academic extra benefits, a Division I Committee on Infractions panel announced. One additional football student-athlete committed academic misconduct on his own.

Winthrop has a star in 5-7 senior Keon Johnson. Diminutive guard dropped 38 points in Monday night's upset of Illinois.

That plus the fact he only took a total of 5 shots but that was his stat line.

Jacksonville (Florida) Sandalwood cornerback Quran Hafiz is nearing the end of his recruitment, and knows when he's announcing his decision. The 247Sports Composite three-star cornerback tweeted Sunday night that he's making his decision between Illinois, Indiana, Iowa State and Nebraska on Dec. 19. He will also be signing that day and enrolling for the spring semester wherever he commits. Hafiz, who is ranked as the No. 85 cornerback in the class of 2017, has taken official visits to all four schools, in addition to Minnesota. He has developed tight relationships with many of the coaches recruiting him, and is close with multiple players on the teams he's considering. He said Nebraska corner and Florida native Chris Jones is "like a brother" and he played with current Indiana true freshman receiver Phil Benker at Sandalwood. Iowa State is scheduled to get his final official visit this coming weekend. Hafiz committed to the Cyclones in July, then decommitting in September. Nebraska leads Iowa State in his Crystal Ball, and all four predictions for Iowa State were made the day he committed there in July.

Chris Solari - Detroit Free Press EAST LANSING – Here is the full explanation official Bo Boroski gave to a pool reporter about the final 1.6 seconds of Michigan State’s 78-77 win over Florida Gulf Coast on Sunday night that ended in a “timing error.” Boroski statement: “A timing error occurred with 1.6 seconds remaining on the game clock. Since a timing error occurred, we are able to utilize the replay monitor. A stopwatch was used to determine if any time should remain on the game clock. Using a stopwatch, it was determined the ball was caught and released in 1.3 seconds, meaning if the shot would have gone in, it would have counted. After the miss there was no time remaining in the game, therefore ending the game. By rule the possession cannot be replayed. Period.” Reporter: “The timing, the clock, is that kept by you guys or is that there on the tables?” Boroski: “Starting and stopping the game clock?” Reporter: “Yes.” Boroski: “So the officials had the capability to start the game clock, and the whistles stop the game clock. The timer on the sideline has that capability as well.” Reporter: “OK, which kind of confuses me so...” Boroski: “Well so there’s four ways for the game clock to start and stop. The three officials, and the timer on the sideline.” Reporter: “OK, so when something like that happens you’re all starting it and they’re starting it on the sideline I guess is what...” Boroski: “All four of us have the capability. When the timing error occurred it allowed us to utilize the monitor. OK, and then that’s when we break out the stopwatch. At that point, as the statement read, we have to determine what’s the, because play didn’t stop. If that try is released after the 1.6 we are going to wave it off. If that try is released before the 1.6 we are going to count it. It was determined it was released before the 1.6, we were prepared to count it. It did not go in, and using the stopwatch we didn’t need to put any time back on the clock because it had expired.”

Blueitt reached 1,000 career points for X.

From Indiana Basketball: As far back as our game-by-game rebounding records go (1972), last night's +35 (55-20) margin is the largest.

Thanks. I didn't see the game and didn't know if it was bad throws from Cutler or he couldn't hang on to it today.

Finished with 21 pts. in 24 min.; tied for high points on the Mad Ants. He was 4-11 on 3's.

Bears (2-8) lose another one this time to the Giants 22-16. Howard with 77 yds. on 16 carries. 1 reception for 22 yds; targeted 8 times. Tracy Porter with 2 solo tackles.
