Dhop

Not a Houston fan, but sure do love seeing Duke get its heart broken.

I’m getting the feeling CDD likes to keep it in a VERY close circle.

Why does the dude poking us look like such a D!{k?

North Carolina. So the only SEC fans I ever see are a few transplanted Alabama fans and a friend that went to Clemson. They have miraculously become huge bball fans. Think of IU suddenly being rabid football fans. Same story with the script flipped. Always easy jumping on the wagon for a winner. Difference for them currently is they get to cheer for both at a high level. Hoping we get to soon. They still stack football first, doubt that will ever change. I worked in Alabama for a while, the football fandom is on another planet from anything I’ve seen. It’s their college and pro team combined. EVERYBODY there reminds me of this board, LOL living in the heart of ACC bball country….well that’s a different story all together…

Move out of state and see what people think of Indiana as a state. Answer…they don’t. Coming to IU has to be about 1) the program 2) the school 3) unfortunately now the bag. Feel free to argue the order. We have not had #1 since RMK. We still had residual cachet for a bit, but that shine isn’t there for most of the kids now. The only thing these 18-20 year olds have seen or know of IU is talk of the glory days and talk of a “cathedral” to basketball known as assembly hall unless they grew up in Indiana. we have name recognition, an awesome campus, a legendary court to play on, etc etc etc. what we don’t have is any CONSISTENT/PREDICTABLE success that any 20 year old has seen in their lifetime. Sadly we are just part of the mix now because tons of programs now have the money, and many have built solid programs. A revived Program is what we need. We just experienced what buying a team gets you. I hope CDD is the guy, I’ve grown numb to the mediocrity after decades. Let’s get the right players. I’ve waited this long. A few weeks isn’t going to kill me if he’s all about building a culture. P.S. I moved to the southeast, and yes, the amount of Dew consumed here is ASTONISHING

With an attitude like that he’d best watch out for African swallows.

I’ve seen many in the last several years, just none up close.

Hoping for a fun couple weeks of this mixed in with the madness.

Is there a name for that when you rack up all 5 reaction emojis in one post?

Was fortunate to see the 93 IUvMU game. Not sure I will ever experience that setting ever again. Loud isn’t descriptive enough, and it was from intros to the end. Lucked into seats right behind the UM bench. My new bride kept asking me who was farting (hilarious), it really did stink. And aside from the game itself I will always be amazed at how the fab dudes treated Fischer. Man, they were harsh to him. If you ever find the time, that’s a classic one to watch…should have hung another banner that year.

100%. Can’t even count the number of bafflers back in the day. It was like he lost to nobody’s on purpose. Big coach Knight fan here, but this board back in the day would have been interesting to say the least.

What’s his twitter?

Welcome to the full spectrum of emotions. If nothing else, it’s entertaining.

Spoke to some friends that are big WV die hards. Season ticket holder, don’t miss games. Really liked DD. “Big competitor. Good coach”. Were some of their remarks. time to support the new guy

Anyone that thinks that there was not a wink, wink, nod, nod, or at least an implied pressure while he was in the corner, covering his eyes and ears is a fool.
