BTOWN reacted to Magnanimous in Indiana vs Undue Purversity, Thursday, 7:00 pm
Soapbox time. My two cents on storming the court…generally IU should be above it. Us storming the court in Crean’s second year after beating Minnesota was rock bottom for the program, and yes the expectation for this program and fanbase is it shouldn’t be a surprise for us to beat anybody at home.
HOWEVER…
I can’t imagine how much it probably sucks to be a college student these days. These kids have had a lot of joy and potential memories stripped from them these last few years because of Covid. Wear a face mask in class, if you’re even allowed to come to class at all? When I was at IU one of my classmates showed up drunk during Little 5 week, passed out in front of the teacher and broke his nose on the classroom floor. Then he got arrested in the bathroom after a janitor found him asleep on the toilet. For some of these kids they didn’t even see their classmates’ noses for over a year.
Add this on top of many of them never had a senior prom, spent weeks quarantined in their dorms, lived in a shell of one of the best college towns in the country, and may very well leave IU with a fraction of the memories most of us had when we were there. Let them eat cake, let them storm the court, and let them have some fun. They deserve it and then some. They’ll never get this time back.

BTOWN reacted to Demo in (2023) - SG Jakai Newton to INDIANA
Was just perusing his Mom’s Twitter feed. She is objectively great and they appear to be a pretty spectacular family. Has a Master’s in Psychology and runs a non-profit that works with families of kids with disabilities. Just good, good folks. Getting happier about this one all the time.

BTOWN reacted to Barrel Rick in Miller Kopp to Indiana (Northwestern Transfer)
hey y’all,
just wanted to come on and give my thoughts on the newest addition to the IUBB family; Miller “Lite” Kopp.
from what i heard at my brunch with Coach Woodson this morning, the kid shoots it like fu*king Wally Szczerbiak..
we were in dire need of snipers, and Morning Wood delivered.. barrels off to him.
as for Miller Lite, i’m predicting he comes in and wets that hoe at an 87% clip; and if he doesn’t, i’m gonna’ give his sister the Ricky Special.

BTOWN reacted to Honkyman in (2021) SG Tamar Bates to INDIANA
Rob Johnson was a good four year player at IU. Hopefully, Tamar Bates turns out to be as good as Robert Johnson.

BTOWN reacted to Stuhoo in Mike Woodson and His Coaching Staff
So you're very much not a fan of a place you've never been to, but you're already sure you don't like it there so you're never going to go there.
Got it. And thanks for weighing in on what you didn't enjoy from your California non-experience. :)

BTOWN reacted to iu eyedoc in Mike Woodson and His Coaching Staff
You have clearly never been to California. Not that I would live there, but no where in this country offers more natural beauty and outdoor activity. I know a guy that literally went skiing, hit a skateboard park, and caught a few waves surfing all in the same day. If you could provide me with the location to Half Dome East, or Iowa National Sequoia, or maybe just some great FL tidal pools to explore starfish, anemones, crabs, sea lions, and sea otters, I would really appreciate it.

BTOWN reacted to Stromboli in Mike Woodson and His Coaching Staff
Haaaaaaaaaaaaa
California is one of my favorite places on earth. More in that state than most countries can boast. Beaches. Vineyards. Cities. Nightlife. Incredible hiking. Adventure sports. Amazing outdoor parks. I love it all. And yes, some interesting, accepting, vibrant people, too.

Khristian Lander's father: "I almost got emotional because I knew he was staying. I knew 5 minutes into the meeting (with Mike Woodson)."
Wow.

BTOWN reacted to Stuhoo in Trayce Jackson-Davis Announces Return to Indiana Basketball (QUOTES IN OP)
You know what guys?
TJD has been really good as a Hoosier, but there's always been that nagging hater-talk that IU was a temporary arrangement for him.
The young man probably knows he isn't ready for a draft slot, but he could have gone ANYWHERE to prepare.
TJD = TRUE HOOSIER to the core.

BTOWN reacted to T White in Player decisions
It isn't just that he is coming back, although that is great. It is the sentiment about finding a home in his time of need. That is incredibly touching. Straight from the heart sort of stuff.
