I admit I really only have watched his coverage of IU games. I guess context is everything. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Not a fan of Bardo but he punked Rob once again last night. He said something like, “I just want to go down and give Phinisee a hug”. He’s done it when calling other IU games too. He definitely isn’t saying that to be compassionate. I take it as him calling out Rob as a complete chump. I hate people punking our players but.... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Well, yeah! But I honestly didn’t know his stat line. I watched maybe three minutes. It was all eye test and he passed! With free again you starting next year I wonder if this Keion to IU train could build any steam. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I watched a few minutes of that game and Brooks impressed me during the stretch. He has put on a little bulk, was rebounding, and doing some things at mid-level. I would love for him to come here next year. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

General Coach Candidate News

Excuse my ignorance if there is an obvious answer that I have missed but who is “Luke” that has been referred to a few times? Am I having a brain fart or have me made headway with a recruit? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -
If the current trend continues the Big 1.0 will just declare OSU regular season and tournament champions. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

“It ain’t about the Xs and Os. It’s about the Jimmies and Joes”. I had an unrealistic belief in the whole “you can take lesser talent and mold them into a better cohesive unit” for years. The last few years I’ve paid a lot of attention to the $EC and Clemson and I’ve totally changed my way of looking at things. It’s why ND will never be a completely serious contender, IMHO.

(2021) C Logan Duncomb to IU, to Winthrop
RatpigHoosier replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
I apologize if I missed it somewhere but are we interested in Mahaffey? I notice whenever you give an update on the Moeller games you always mention his stats along with Duncomb’s. I’m sure you have a reason for it that I never picked up on. Thanks for keeping us updated on the HS games involving those were following, BTW! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -

Gotta admit it was sure fun watching them play close for 10 minutes. It’ll now at least be a 20-point loss instead of a 30-point loss. Small victories.... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners -

Yes, he twisted his ankle on a break. They taped him up on the sideline but he didn’t come back in. He later was seen on the bench with his shoe/sock off and an ice pack on. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
I sure hope CTA is telling the team to take off the blinders and earmuffs right about now. They have to prove a point. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I highly recommend “Infamous America” for any history buffs. They have a sister podcasts called “Legends of the Old West”. These are extremely well researched. For anyone up for listening to weird stuff “The Confessionals” podcast is entertaining. Think “Coast to Coast AM” subject matter. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

IUBB vs Stanford - 12/2/20 @ 1:30 on ESPN
RatpigHoosier replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
I think you may be onto something here. I haven’t thought about it but I have been trying to figure out why someone we have heard raves about the last two preseasons hasn’t been able to turn it into on-court game time performance. I wonder if he supposedly plays so well in practice because he is comfortable around his teammates and knows their tendencies. Maybe a lack of familiarity with players from other teams makes him tentative. Whatever it is, I wish he could get past it because I think he is the player who can add the most to our current formula and make us much better. I desperately want him to succeed.

The Official Btown Banners Beer Thread!
RatpigHoosier replied to coachmayhew's topic in Off Topic Forum
Busch Light is my go-to quantity beer. It is the only thing we drink at hunting camp. I just drank it for a week straight in the beach at Siesta Key. During the summer I normally switch to Miller High Life for sipping on the back porch while grilling. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app -
IU getting some love during the America’s Game of the Week on FOX. Aikman acknowledging the Hoosiers and complimenting CTA. This can’t do anything but help out with recruiting. Loving it! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I wish the court at New Castle gym was college regulation. It would be awesome to be able to showcase IN HS basketball culture by having games there. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
