    It's not on regular Fox? I have a regular Fox logo...   Don't ask me though, I stream most games.  I relied 100% on the logo.

    Brad Stevens taking it to Tom Crean in Indy. I'm surprised this is a national game.

    Maybe Ben Simmons will beat them.

    Wow. That's baffling.

    I just wish Bill Walton were on the call.

    Minnesota pulling guys out of the stands and throwing jerseys on them.

    Rutgers has this one. Minnesota just doesn't have players.

    I wish. The time between draft and preseason is murder. Literally since it killed Hunter S Thompson

    Tom Crean's postgame locker room speech

    Oh my gosh, Tom Crean makes 3.5 million dollars a year and wears a swatch watch?
  11. It's just a regular ticket, so you can sell tickets for any session you dont' attend.
  12. Yeah, for me it all depends on what point in time we're capturing. February 15th? No, I didn't think we could play on the road well enough. Then Iowa lost to PSU and gave me a little confidence. Then we did well against Purdue to boost the confidence some more. Then RoJo was hurt and it went down. Then Iowa lost against Wisco. Then we went to Illinois and looked great even without RoJo and it went up more. Cruised right around "I feel like we might be able to win this game" until Sunday night when Iowa lost to OSU and it became "We're going to win this game".   I mostly judge my confidence in a game based on how upset I predict I would be at a loss. Like, MSU bummed me out but was expected and not a source of deep sports feelings. PSU on the other hand... But by Monday going towards Iowa, I would have been pretty brokenhearted about a loss. My wife said the tension in the room was palpable at the end.

    Good, I don't want to the be the only grown man crying during his speech.

    Open Practice on Sunday...

    I heard this was likely to happen. Great move, we're deep at WR and he'll excel at this role.   Someone periscope practice for the rest of us.
  15. Where have you looked? The official store has one, though I don't know if that means it's available off-line anywhere.   http://assemblycall.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0a9d96262a3be8d414037e2ac&id=46155443c5&e=148ddfa318   Well... that is much more of a referral link than I expected, but I'm certainly not going to find the email again to post the direct one.

    I'm going to drop it in the first game thread post too when I make it and try and get it in the post-game thread too. Can someone who does thread instead of chat try and remember to paste it a few times towards the end of the game?

    No thanks, I don't think I can root for a guy named "Tanner"

    If Stetson's fans aren't currently making constant "Hatter" to "Hater" jokes then I'm severely disappointed in them.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    Yes, Tom Crean is top on my list of "Topics to discuss with Lil Wayne" too.

    2016-2017 Indiana Basketball

    I have it through my subscription to ESPN magazine which I ordered only for the insider access, so I think it cost under 5 bucks for a year. That was like 4 years ago? I never renewed my subscription or paid additional money but I still get magazines delivered to my recycling each month and insider access so, it was worth that much. I have never seen insider only information which made me think "Oh man, I would have paid to see that". Paying for something like Scout or ITH is probably a better deal because at least they have some relevant exclusive content.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    You have to wonder if those letters to former players had more of an effect on Crean than they did on the players.

    IUBB Pick'ems Game #31 vs. Maryland

    That points from the bench question is so tricky. My answer is 100% based on what personnel I think we'll have since the calculation is wildly different when your bench is 3 deep instead of 5 deep.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    In four years Yogi has played (or practiced at least) with 43 different teammates including 12 walk-ons and 31 scholarship players.   That is a ridiculous statistic.

    2016-2017 Indiana Basketball

    Gotchu:   22. Memphis Grizzlies   Thomas Bryant Indiana Freshman Center   Bryant's lack of foot speed and elite athleticism hurt his stock, but the guy is money in the paint and has a jump shot that stretches all the way to the 3-point line.   I'm not sure who he guards at the next level, but scouts see upside in him outside the lottery. The Grizzlies could sure use some help off the bench in the paint.   Projected record: 45-37   They charge how much for that?
  25. Of 12 scholarship players we finished the Iowa game with 8 available + 1 Priller. That's pretty wild.   Plus, I'll bet Troy still doesn't feel 100% from that nasty bruise @Illinois. Maybe it's slowing him enough to improve his play against Iowa.
