    Pitino gets extension at Minnesota

    Glad somebody caught it.  I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed but I am not that bad, yet.

    Ugggh, there goes another possible Crean replacement off the market...
  3. Chosen Few   The Why Store   Johnny Socko
  4. People complain about Crean's ability to recruit in state.  Come on, he nabbed the 14th best player!

    Pacers to wear Hoosiers (movie) Uniforms!

    Will these games be played at Hinkle?

    Who do u resemble when playing hoops.

    I have spent years mastering my Uwe Blab look and hands.
  7. A little suspect when Pete Lembo is ranked ahead of Wilson.  Purdue cannot feel good about Hazell.  I think the entire MAC was rated higher than him.

    Remembering the 2012-2013 Hoosiers.

    This was a highlight real that missed the single best play of that game.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5r1GtBOANc

    Potential replacements for 2015-2016

    April or Hoetzel's flights taken off yet?   Crean at the Indy airport... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCjoOOrgVMM

    B1G/ACC Challenge 2015

    Heard those rich kids in Raleigh can afford some good weed.  Team should be excited to make the trip.
  12. Wisc and The Ohio State University are pretty stacked in this.   I hate to say it, but Purdue's lineup doesn't look too bad either.
  13. Any "creaning" issues may be resolved if Thon decides to come!
  14. Ugggh, there goes Yogi's "best rebounder in the Big Ten."

    2015 IU Men's Soccer Schedule

    A good set up for the #Q49

    B1G/ACC Challenge 2015

    Will gladly take playing at Cameron than losing against the 2-3 zone up north.  UVA would have been fun, and close enough to contemplate the drive from NVa.

    Reports: Donovan to NBA thunder

      I assume his DePauw education would make him smarter than that.

    Reports: Donovan to NBA thunder

    With Donovan off the market, who will Kentucky fans now dream about to rebuild their program when Cal jumps ship in a year or two leaving a trail of violations and NCAA sanctions?

    Can we all at least agree that...

      Bob Knight would have loved to have been to the Sweet Sixteen in three of his last five years in Btown.

    If there was no 2-3 zone......

    Pre-Season Polls

          I will split the difference between you two.  There were moments where last year's team shined (the Maryland and Butler games come to mind), but a small line up always leaves you exposed, especially in the Big Ten.  That said, I think saying we underachieved last year is a stretch.  We were picked to finish in the bottom of the Big Ten.  We led the Big Ten and were nationally ranked for brief stretches.  While it was a roller coaster of a season, I would say we performed about as expected or a bit better.    This is what gives me hope for this season and why our ranking is just about right.  We return everyone important and they have another year of development under them.  Some players like JBJ have realized weaknesses (hello, maybe we should make it look like we are trying to play real defense instead of 1980's Oklahoma defense), and can really focus on those to achieve their own personal goals.  And finally, through recruiting, we have supplemented what was one of our biggest weaknesses last year.  We deserve a decent but not great ranking, exactly what we got.
  22. If we are stepping away from college teams can we get a home and away with the Pacers?  Even UK fans don't consider it a real school:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oPf59ogPhs
  23.   I like this article as the comments allow me a view into the warped mind of UK fans, as well as the display of their inability to master the English language.

    How deep is your Hoosier fandom?

    Would viewing/following of Little 500 and the events leading up to the race (quals and the rider series) be includable on a list or excluded because it is not a university sponsored team?

    How deep is your Hoosier fandom?

    1. Basketball 2. Soccer Addendum - Little 500 3. Baseball 4. Football   Not enough of a glutton for punishment to religiously follow our football.  Like watching the soccer team hang banners almost as much as watching the basketball team hang banners.
