IUFB Offseason Updates
MartintheMopMan replied to ThompsonHoosier's topic in Indiana Hoosiers Football
Even praying probably won't do it against OSU. Combine talent and money with a coaching staff who is extremely familiar with most of our players and it's a lot to overcome. -
What a weird group of fake offers.

Player and Recruit Retention News/Discussion & Potential Transfers
MartintheMopMan replied to Brass Cannon's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
It's not choosing "because of" it's a plus factor. If you really can't decide between two restaurants because they're both awesome in their own unique ways and then you find out Paul McCartney will be eating at one of them, it nudges the equation a little. Alternatively, a recruit may be introduced to another side of IU through a famous instagram or something like that and find he wants to prioritize. -

MartintheMopMan replied to Brass Cannon's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Both named after Rockport, MA I mean, I live in a city named after Portland, ME in a state with town names like "Boring" and "Bend" and a capital named after Salem, MA named after a Biblical city so who am I to judge? -

Portland, Kokomo, Brazil, Columbus, Montpelier, Albany, Geneva, Winchester, Syracuse, auburn, Akron, Warsaw, morocco, Monticello, Milan, Versailles, Rockville, and Attica are the ones I think of on top of those. I can't tell you how many times someone told me where they were from and I asked the wrong follow-up because they didn't toss that "Indiana" at the end. -

Is this a good place to ask why so many Indiana towns share a name with somewhere else? -

South End Zone Expansion/Stadium Renovation Thread
MartintheMopMan replied to RBB89's topic in Indiana Hoosiers Football
Can confirm Oregon's facilities and dining hall are incredible even as they're aging. No mind reading powers yet, so I can't confirm if it affects decisions, but it sure would affect mine. Eat your enemies. -
IU paid Parker Executive Search $90,000 in school’s hiring process
MartintheMopMan replied to iubb's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
I don't know that you can really handle the vetting without a firm. You just had an abusive coach scandal, you have another one that everyone seems to remember, you have to be beyond diligent hiring the coach that could define your tenure. Unless they also hired someone there too. -

****, I've been gone so long I still have a Crean quote as my signature. I never realized what I'd be losing at the time, that's a great quote. -

The Optimist's Shorter Rotation Theory

I could have been there for only $140, but it overlapped with my family Christmas.
