He didn't even mention Cig's UCLA trash talk: https://uclawire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ucla/football/2024/07/31/indiana-head-coach-curt-cignetti-starting-early-trash-talk-with-ucla-bruins/74620503007/

I agree. There must be something to this. It could be an indicator that a lot of the schools on his list are backing off a bit.

The record might not be the same/better, but this team is going to be very good. Anyone who thinks otherwise is going to be proven wrong.

For the millionth time, we get it. This is part of the reason some people are probably tuning out on the boards to be honest. Rehashing the same opinion over and over before a second of play.

I was thinking the exact opposite. Since Cig is familiar with him, I expect this to be 40+ game.

Kinda indicative of the NCAA.

I think folks were just speculating that he was the odd man out because of Ristic, but that's just people guessing.

This is the key. Both him and Chet have looked spent at times. I don't recall who said it, before this playoff run, a player said the Pacers were the hardest team in the league to play. Last year, Joe Mazzula said the Pacers series was the hardest even though they swept them. This year's run is one for the books. https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/the-pacers-are-halfway-to-winning-the-unlikeliest-championship-in-recorded-nba-history/

Over Archie? No way. I think everyone knew the Woody hire was mediocre at best. Archie had much higher expectations and was arguably way worse.

"They need to run motion..."

So people only care because he renewed Buckner? What about "He falsely suggested that IU was unique in having alumni determine a public university’s board members, even though other state schools including Purdue University still have appointees that are elected by the Purdue Alumni Association."

#FreeCoachCorsaro Yeah, I think he's been set free already.

Honest question, what good work was he credited for?

So some people are extremely happy all of the time.

I never understand why this process takes so long. Seems like they would have a system in place to make the decision for them. Like do they investigate ie interview doctors and such or what are they doing that take so long to approve or not?

I don't think so. He'll have to wait until it's open again.

I had a bit of inside info on this situation and it was looked at as a shake down for the get go. I am glad they took the accusations very seriously though. Different times, different procedures. Do you mind me asking where you played both in college and professionally?

Everything

I would have to guess Josh Harris since he just committed and he's from FLA and this guy is based out of Fort Lauderdale.

We shouldn't give money to younger people because they might be irresponsible? Sure some kids might blow that money just like some pro athletes blow all their money, but that's not any sort of legit reason not to pay them if someone is willing to.

Yeah, I would say it's pretty much necessary to be honest. A good coach should be able to get us in the tournament relatively easily too.

Agreed. It's easy to say "I would be shocked..." about anyone visiting that is not said to have any other visits or favorites. IU has a lot of $ so any non big name that is still scheduling a visit with us most likely has some sort of understanding of what an offer and role would be. So at that point there's at least a 50% chance a guy like this would commit on the visit. That being said, I don't know anything about Jason Drake or who else is interested in him (St. John's?), but if he's visiting IU knowing who's already committed, there's a good chance we are his best outstanding offer.

Not a grand slam triple? :)

Just wanted to make sure since I know Jasai Miles is there I believe.
