  1. Wonder if he'll do some on-air stuff if he doesn't find a job that he likes right away? I remember him being pretty good and getting a lot of positive feedback after doing The Vertical's live NBA draft show last year. I mean, he certainly knows how to talk it up in an entertaining way.
  2. Agreed. Being a Hoosier, Titus always seems to capture what Indiana and more largely, the Midwest, is all about with pieces like this.
  3. Yep, agreed. I honestly like Green's potential as our PG... he's quicker, more athletic, a better passer, and seems to have better court vision than Newkirk, Rojo, and JBJ. If anyone can turn him into an excellent starting PG, it's our new coach who just happened to be a PG himself.
  4. Flame on! I may be a total idiot optimist, but based on these guys social media posts, it seems like they're buying in to Archie and ready to make another run as a whole team. After all, these guys are all basketball players through and through and at some point I think they collectively realized that Crean is a moron and their ceiling will always be low with him at the helm. With Miller in place, I think they understand that they can now reach their true potential and really take off (i.e. Rojo's rocket tweet). Just my opinion though.
  5. So what's a reasonable timeline for this kind of stuff? Does anybody have any solid, concrete ideas or estimation? I'm fully assuming that JBJ, OG, and TB will do the NBA combine stuff regardless if they plan on leaving or not, but what's a reasonable expectation for actually knowing who's all staying and who's not?
  6. Totally agree with this. Not to mention our guards will actually get to learn from a tough, blue-collar basketball guy that ACTUALLY played collegiate ball as a point guard at a legit D1 school. As opposed to a hyperactive weirdo who players say they never saw him shoot the ball... like, not even once. How do you spend that much time in a b-ball gym and NEVER put up at least one shot???
  7. Right, I'm suggesting that perhaps he feels that same way to an extent at this point.
  8. If we're going off the quote, then I would say this... Rojo's Plan A was too be successful at IU under the Crean regime. However, now his Plan B is to still make his Plan A work even though Crean is gone (i.e. still successful at IU but under Archie and co.)
  9. Haha, that's not a bad idea. I went with "Creany Tom and the Diet Cokes". I'm quite proud of this name, by the way :)
  10. For those of you who might not have access to BTN, here's a pretty solid free online stream of the game... http://www.stream2watch.cc/livenow/basketball/25117/indiana-hoosiers-vs-wisconsin-badgers-live-stream You'll want to have a pop-up blocker installed on whatever web browser you use or you'll be bombarded with silly ads and whatnot.
  11. Actually, it just says "if he makes a run it changes everything.." The Janitor doesn't specify what "a run" is at all and he certainly doesn't say "deep". Could winning the BTT be what he's talking about? Or is he referring to a run in the actual NCAA tourney? Who knows at this point.
  12. Agreed. Definitely not what I wanted to hear from the almighty Janitor. Hopefully, making "a run" refers more to the actual NCAA tourney and not the BTT.
  13. Apologies if this stuff from the Janitor has already been posted...
  14. So you're saying that all of the insiders are purely speculating, yet your advise to "prepare for the worst" because Crean will be back is based solely on gut feeling and (wait for it).... personal speculation?? Not trying to pick on you, I just don't understand where you're coming from on this. Seems a tad trollish... or maybe just really pessimistic??
  15. Have you actually heard that this is a real possibility or is it just a gut feeling? I've seen several of your posts stating pretty emphatically that Crean will be back... is there something concrete to support that idea or are you just intentionally trying to keep your expectations low? Just curious as I think we're well past the point of "crazy rumors and speculation".
  16. Haha... no, probably not. I'm on my laptop.
  17. Not for me, it doesn't. There's an ad that can be removed after a 15 second countdown timer finishes and there's one other pop-up to close out. Then it works fine. I'm also using the Ad Blocker Plus free Add-on in Firefox.
  18. Half decent free live stream online once you close out some of the pop-ups and ads... http://www.stream2watch.cc/live-events/basketball/liberty-vs-indiana-live-stream Not the greatest quality, but watchable (and free).
