…in other words, …”he wants attention!”

Crap… I misread it. The December 30th is for the deadline for the Raptors contract extension. Thanks for catching that.

….well, Maryland’s currently up 21-9…

I was just going over IU’s transfer portal roster. It currently lists 9 players total who originally committed to Coach Cignetti and JMU. Though some on here are reluctant and apprehensive about most of these players because of their lack of “stars” or even star power. I have a couple observations on all of this. - That many players and potentially more, believe and trust in Coach Cignetti enough to follow him where ever he goes. That says volumes…. - Coach Cignetti still wanting these specific players to come with him it IU and be a part of this rebuild also speaks volumes as to the type of players he knows and wants to go to battle for him. I also liked one of many comments he has said about his process so far. I will paraphrase… “We had to re-recruit IU guys to get on the bus with us and we also had to tell some to get off the bus!” It would be interesting to find out which IU players he told to “get off the bus!”

I wondered when this would happen, or IF it would. I wonder if any of the newest JMU commits have anything to do with this… ?

Or Terre Haute..

On top of that…..If, and that’s a big if we actually start winning and consistently, he will be a hot commodity.

Coach Cignetti.... paraphrase, "Look, the administration here, they want football to win! I've got some things that the "other" coaches didn't..... and hey, they got a guy that knows what they're doin!".... I love his confidence. I sort of got from his last statement that we will definitely not see what we saw the past several years as long as his coaching staff and football team has anything to do with it. He did say he thinks we will win big next year..... I sure hope so.

Reflecting on Walker's performance last night,...... he deserves more minutes, plain and simple. Based performance last night was a testimony of what he can do and I think "willing" to do if he's given more opportunities. Any player sitting on the bench for extended minutes game after game has to be evaluating what he can do to help this team. I think Walker has really stepped up and put that evaluation to fruition. Now we need more of this from others.....JMO

For what it’s worth, this time last year, we were also 8-3 on December 19th and went 9-3 by beating Elon on December 20th, 2022.

If IU would have played defense the whole game like they did during their 20-4 run,…..and hit their free throws we win by 20 going away.

I love them..... I always wanted a black uniform for IU football. I would maybe change a few colors of the lettering, but I think they are sweet. I would love to have a deep, metallic red helmet with the same metallic red in the lettering on the jerseys. JMO

In reference to some of IU’s top player coming back to IU,……I’m guessing this could be because of some of CCC’s latest additions and maybe, possible knowledge of some “sideline verbals”? JMO…

BIG Banter @BIGBanterSports Penn State is hiring former Indiana head coach Tom Allen as their next defensive coordinator to replace Manny Diaz .

Michigan St up 28 pt at half time I’ve #6 Baylor???

Yes,….. I’m gonna say it again, how can they miss that call. You can imagine Coach Woodson will not be pleased seeing that.

Wow…. How was this not seen by the officials? We could have potentially tied, if not gone ahead with a 3.

….go Zona!

Go Colts….lol

We really missed X in this game! I’m gonna take this loss as a huge learning opportunity for Cupps. Because of this, he will be better for the BIGTEN and we should have a healthier X.

Turnovers… decided this game! JMO

SMH…. I look up and read your text again.., SMH…!!!

I was gonna ask if he was someone Coach Cignetti would be interested in, but I saw where he’s committed to Miami of Ohio…

....Could we eventually be labeled quarterback U? lol Time will tell. While at JMU, one of Coach Cignetti's assistants labeled him the "quarterback whisperer"..... I like the sound of that.
