Class of '66 Old Fart

Reportedly they changed the blocking scheme on that play in the week leading up to the game.

Jamie Shaw (On3) named Moody one of the top 10 performers at this past weekend's Hoophall Classic in Springfield, MA.

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

Kudos to Assembly Call for even thinking of this

Hopefully everyone remembered to use their index finger!

Osterman late last night - Our flight from Detroit to Indy is being delayed because a flight out of Miami was late and passengers are rushing to connect. Pilot just came back and told us they’re “trying to do a Mendoza.” Shortly after that - Plane is full. Everyone made it. Pilot is back: “It’s absolutely my honor to pilot this national championship crowd.” He is receiving applause.

A winnable game but can we win on the road? Ruger (9-10) (2-6) averages just 70 ppg shooting 41% FG and 32% on 3s. Their opponents have shot 45% and 37% respectively. However, last night we managed just 40% and 32% against Michigan. Ruger averages 37 rpg but just 11 assists/game so lots of "me" ball. Tariq Francis at 15.3 and Dylan Grant at 11.5 are their leading scorers. Jamichael Davis at 38% and Grant at 36% are their best 3-point shooters with any volume on the season. Emmanuel Ogbole at 6.9 and Grant at 4.8 are their leading rebounders. Davis leads them in assists with 50 vs. just 19 turnovers. Have to feel at least some optimism that we can come away with a win. After this game, it's back to Bloomington to host the PUkers on Tuesday night. Radio Live Stats

Cig's "Wizard" may have just been gamesmanship on his part but I did read that Fernando's diving TD was on a play they just installed the week before the game. They tweaked an existing play with some different blocking assignments.

All is forgiven my son.

@LIHoosier Not that it would have made even the tiniest bit of difference but I don't see my name in the week's list. I was the second prediction in the game thread. I'm willing to overlook this oversight once! lol

We have 5 total rebounds. Michigan has 4 offensive rebounds. I've seen enough. Back to watching high school basketball for me.

Chatter on 247 is Fisch missed a connecting flight and someone else will be on the radio call tonight.

Our next backup QB? [I'm kidding. Or am I?] Miami redshirt sophomore QB Emory Williams has entered the transfer portal, per @mzenitz and @chris_hummer. Has thrown for 813 yards and 4 TDs in his career.

Oh, if we could only bottle just a little of our football program's success and inject it into our men's and women's bball programs. Alas, we cannot. IU women on a 6-game losing streak and 0-7 in conference play at Ohio State (17-2) (6-1) and I have no hope we can steal a win. We have to play near perfect basketball with the numerous weaknesses we have and I just can't see that happening Thursday night in Columbus. The Buckeyes have a +22 scoring margin. They force 23 turnovers/game and average 13 steals/game. Not a strong 3-point shooting team at 32% but probably won't have to attempt all that many and will just pound it inside. Radio Live Stats

A tapestry of beauty.

Statement from Bill Self earlier today.

Still trying to wrap my hands around the fact that I was able to watch both happen. Damn I'm old.

ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights Indiana did not lose a fumble over its final 1,047 offensive plays and 15 games, only losing a fumble in the first quarter of its season opener No other team since 2004 has gone more than 12+ consecutive games in a season without losing a fumble

Thanks @LIHoosier for running the thread. Much appreciated.

How he kept his balance when he was hit at the 5!
