IU as total control of ticket distribution for the UK game at Lucas Oil so it will not be the historical 50/50 split. Not sure how many seats will be allocated to UK but there is no doubt that the game has the possibility of essentially being a home game for IU - just depends on how IU fans respond to the opportunity to buy tickets. In my opinion there is no way that this game is included in the season ticket package but season ticket holders should get first opportunity to request tickets at various price points based upon their priority point standing. Hopefully those who buy will not sell to UK fans or put them on secondary sites such as StubHub where they have no control over who buys them.

Hmmm - that would sure seem to indicate that Adam Olsen's $1.5M offer that I was told about wasn't all that firm. May be that he's still available but also may be that we have our sights set higher? Not sure that he fits the backup big man and the addition of Bryce Lindsay, while listed as a guard, could well fill the 3 point need that Adam wqas being considered for. Who knows?

According to my friend who knows the S Alabama source he was coming before Florida State threw $1.5 mil at him. That said, I haven't seen any reports of Olsen committing to FSU yet.

And a very "in house" source at South Alabama and their coaching staff thought so too.

Can't say that the thought hasn't already crossed my mind given the S Indiana connection.

Same source with friend at S Alabama just texted that we are not getting Adam Olsen. Their coaching staff thought he was but that was before Florida State came in with 1.5 ML. Crazy!

Hermaican for me with that delicious home made blue cheese dressing!

Olsen fits that bill.

Board moves fast and posts get buried - that's a GOOD thing as it means there is interest!

Nah - we had all morning and most iof the afternoon to work on him - LOL!

5241 In the FWIW category ......An IU friend of mine texted me about an hour ago asking if I was aware that we got Adam Olsen from South Alabama. I said that I am aware that he's in the portal and that we might have interest but that I am not aware that we actually got him. He responded that a S Alabama friend & alum told him. When I followed up asking if he's convinced that his friend would know he responded with a fairly compelling answer.

Yep - Cluff was their most effective weapon and got away with the same stuff TKR gets away with. Just goes to show that even a caveman can do it.

Makes Brian Kelly look classy by comparison - YIKES!!!

Yep - nobody being replaced with this hire. Now, doesn’t mean that an assistant won’t leave - just wouldn’t be connected to this hire.

Interesting comment regarding Bidunga - I have obviously missed something. Context?
