Class of '66 Old Fart

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.”

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.

Aw Stu, you just hurt Cpl. Klinger's feelings.

pUKe now has the #1 recruiting class picking up a commitment from PG Quade Green. pUKe has signed 4 players in the last 9 days; 3 of whom are 5-stars.

Dave - Welcome to btb and a great group of people. Glad to have you join us and hope you become a frequent contributor.

Maybe we should become known as the Pillsbury Dough Boys after tonight! Let's hope we don't have another night like this again this season in terms of the 26 TOs. 61% shooting from the field and a 55-20 rebounding advantage. Probably not an overly wise scheduling decision.

Nearing a career double-double.

And it's PRILLER time

TB now has 7 TO's!

Under 8 72-35

Twitter says Newkirk lost a tooth.

points or turnovers?

Under 12 - 2nd half 66-30

Really needs to get the starters out. Don't need an injury to a key player in this fiasco.

OG now has his first career double-double.
