There’s a lot going on. Think it’s just about timing and setting up everything for successful transition. Wouldn’t surprise me if we got a Sunday or first thing Monday morning announcement.

A women’s bball thread troll?? I guess it means we’re becoming more relevant, but that’s a first.

Did Yarden foul out? We need threes and curious to see her on the bench otherwise.

Not a stripe hater, but they’re calling some contact at the rim on the Illini side and letting it get physical on our end when we take it to the hoop. Hopefully that evens out last five minutes.

They’re fighting. Which is all I can really want to see from an IU team on a night shots aren’t falling. Come on, let’s cut it to under six before the forth.

This one might be the difference in the end of season separation already coming, and a mid-season firing.

Welp, that was a waste of time. Off the the TGL broadcast I go!

Never say never.

Garzon is moneyyy!!! Her and Syd playing like nails today. Love it.

A lot of time left, but that was a good to great first half of basketball on the road against a ranked team. Admittedly I haven’t watched as much IU women this year mostly because of the obscure broadcast locations, but damn, I forgot what a breath of fresh air they are away from the struggle that is watching our men’s team. So much structure, heart, fundamentals. You almost forget what by it’s like watching a team where you’ve watched the players develop over multiple years and a coach that deploys the talent effectively year after year.

Defense is leading the charge so far tonight. Good to see. We aren’t going to be an elite scoring team this year with our personnel, so fundamental defense not giving up easy scores is critical.

Woody abides by the Hawks rule from Mighty Ducks… It’s not worth losing if you can’t. lose. Big! That was it wasn’t it?? ;)

O-o-o Ozempiccc. You don’t do that aloneeee.

Totally agree. I think it’s hard for us to remember these media guys make their money on clicks and headlines. They NEED “coach Prime” to be relevant because it is an easier story than other programs with status quo coaching staffs. Colorado was never a real college football story. They were and will be, a celebrity story. Which will get clicks and headlines. Until it doesn’t. Which I imagine will be soon. Just because you’re a hall of fame kickoff returner doesn’t make you a hall of fame coach. And you can only recruit your own kids once, just ask Fran McCaffery up in Iowa. He’ll stay around a couple more years. He’ll pull portal transfers on the promise of getting them paid. But ultimately he’ll jump ship for a pro job before his social media spotlight dims and he has to actually coach and be judged on your results and not your appearances on ESPN. That’s my expectation.

Don’t disagree at all. My rant was probably a little bit because I’m just watching college football without much interest at this point and jonesing for some more meaningful IU games. Also as I mentioned, I went to the Gator bowl and feel like I missed out on a great experience gathering with my fellow alumni for a few days and having some fun. I couldn’t really swing for the ND tickets. Nor did I really want to pay those prices just to see an away game in South Bend in the cold. Hopefully there will be many more bowl games and CFP quarterfinals in our future. We shall see.
