That Twitter account is classic. People have been doing this with mlb and nba free agency for some time. You tweet a bunch of rumors as fact - some of them will hit, so you can say you have sources. Then you delete the tweets that were wrong. So when you do the same thing next year, people go back to your tweets and say “wow look what this Twitter account got right!” I definitely think there are random people out there who find things out and break news. But no one has sources everywhere.

Absolutely. It’s the right move for him.

ESPN has him as the #72 prospect. I still think he’s in that late/borderline second round range. But we will see how he looks for NBA teams in workouts.

Yeah. That’s the question - does he want to start making more money by playing in Europe?

Will be interesting to see how he does. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Cronin suddenly became a good offensive coach after he hired Lewis.

Well, sort of. One scenario has some limited objective evidence plus reporting. But maybe that evidence is taken out of context and the reporting is biased. The other scenario has …. complete guesses? But maybe those guesses are right. We clearly don’t know what Fife left, and I still wouldn’t rule it “he’s a good coach but a bad fit for reasons that aren’t anyone’s fault” as the most likely reason.

Dakich makes no effort at all to tell the truth. His whole shtick is to just say whatever he thinks will drive attention and use the “I’m just being honest” deflection to reject criticism and avoid explaining what can be inconsistent or illogical comments. It’s the same reason he likes to hang up on people and talk about the idiots calling in. He doesn’t want to engage because he knows he can’t. He’s not thoughtful, articulate, or even honest or sincere enough.

I mean, I think we can all make up whatever story we want and say “this could have happened so let’s assume it did.”

Right!!

Crazy they had to spend that much to get Lamont Paris. They were better off keeping Frank Martin, but message board fans think it has to potential to be a top 10 job in all of college basketball.

This is incredibly speculative.

Based on who recruited him in HS and who is recruiting him now, at least some people clearly think he’s a different player than he was in HS. I have no idea if they’re right.

Always felt like Dakich was very mediocre on games. He had his narratives and talking points he decided on prior to a game and just hammered them home regardless of how the game actually developed. But I recognize that a lot of people liked him on games, so I’m probably in the minority there.

If Archie contributed more to the field of 68 over the last few years, he’d still be at IU.

Then again, by far the most impactful questionable call of the night went against OSU.
