We play University 6 on Dec. 6. Seems fitting.

Apparently, the Knicks have so far been denied requests to speak with -- Jason Kidd (Mavs), Billy Donovan (Bulls), Quin Snyder (Hawks), Ime Udoka (Rockets) and Chris Finch (Timberwolves). C'mon Knicks -- the answer is plainly obvious. It's someone you know and love ...

Not really college basketball -- but just saw that Jaraan Cornell, a former South Bend Clay and Purdue player, died. Only 48 -- what a damn shame. https://www.southbendtribune.com/story/sports/high-school/2025/06/06/jaraan-cornell-dead-dies-48-south-bend-clay-purdue-basketball-ihsaa-1994-state-finals/84073540007/

I have to admit: I always get hoodwinked. I watch these videos, get ramped up and then get extremely let down when the season starts and we actually miss shots. After seeing those clips, I can't help but wonder what it'd be like to go throughout an entire season and not miss!

That is the case here in Virginia. The governor appoints the board members to most state colleges.

Certainly one of the greatest of all-time IU athletes.

In the new ACC scheduling model, each team has one league opponent it won't play. That just strikes me as absurd. Then again, so is having a conference with teams in Boston and Palo Alto, California (sorta like a conference with teams in Piscataway, New Jersey, and in Seattle -- LOL). https://apnews.com/article/acc-schedule-unc-nc-state-duke-miami-be3a911141a60b0ad78b4d1436bec7b6

First game is set in our series with pUKe.

Have not seen her yet, but she plays her home games about 5 miles from where I live. Comes from a basketball factory -- school has won 15 state titles. South Carolina has already offered and by the time she's actually a senior, she'll have her pick of schools -- and get a hefty paycheck. We're the longest of longshots -- but if you don't ask ...

The perfect place for this. RIP -- Norm Peterson (George Wendt). My favorite character on my favorite all-time sitcom. Fitting -- he died on the 32nd anniversary of the airing of the final episode of "Cheers." NOBODY loved beer more than Norm.

Did we get a new recruit? There's just this reply: "I like the squad we put together" to this post: "To Indiana. That helps IU Ladies alot" I looked for the original "To Indiana" post to see if it added context, but found nothing. Color me very confused ...

CTM to again coach the national U19 World Cup team this July! She coached the team to gold last summer.

An example of the dysfunction that has been IU basketball recently ... If Leal does get a waiver for next season, he will have played for three different head coaches -- and all were full-time, "permanent" coaches. None was an interim.

Since Leal and Goode have applied for waivers, CDD apparently is fine with both returning. I'd be curious to see how it went with all the other guys. Were any welcomed back, but wanted to leave? Did any want to come back, but CDD told them it'd be best to move along? Don't wanna say a mutual parting -- that's too easy! Although I suppose many fell into that category. CDD said during his opening presser he'd sit down with everyone and if it was best for guys to move on -- no hard feelings.
