Oh yeah. He made a big mistake leaving but at least he's getting his degree (hopefully).

Big Ten is going to invite Oregon and Washington to join the league
OGIUAndy replied to iubb's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
It's already a done deal and been reported all day. -
I don't think the talks are very preliminary at all and definitely not vapor. If I was to bet, I would say at least two (UW and Oregon) will be leaving for the BIG very, very soon. Pac 12 is toast. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/38123037/big-ten-explores-possible-expansion-amid-pac-12-instability

(C) Kel 'el Ware - COMMITTED TO INDIANA
OGIUAndy replied to Chris007's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
This was the knock on him at Oregon. So I hope he buys in. -
Thank you. Everyone kissing Fitzgerald's @$$ need only look at their record the past 3-4 years and that's in the West. They reached a ceiling then bottomed out.

Who was? He stunk bad. -
Chris Ledlum - Harvard Transfer to Tennessee -- Wait, Make That St. John's
OGIUAndy replied to Hovadipo's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I don't blame if he's getting a ton of money. It's hard to turn that down especially if your pro prospects are suspect and/or limited to foreign leagues. If these guys are smart, and most don't seem to be, just stash that cash into a retirement fund and retire early. I hope to god some of these guys are doing this. It's not overwhelming life changing money in the day to day world (you can't live off it for more than a few years) , but if you invest it correctly you're set. -
Kokomo Monster (2024) - C Flory Bidunga to Kansas

We'll see soon enough. But let's be honest, they would have struggled again regardless now that they'll have to play a more "balanced" schedule. PU and NW benefitted tremendously playing in the west. I wouldn't say NW has been lighting it up the past few years either.

Most kids aren't going to kick another teammates @$$ because they are being hazed. Guys want to fit in, they want to show they can handle it, that it doesn't bother them. True hardcore hazing serves no purpose and doesn't bring guys together, it's just a way to humiliate, tolerate bullies or carry on some old school tradition ("I was hazed so you're going to get hazed"). Messing with teammates and making them do stupid stuff, chores, etc. isn't the same as "hazing" that has been described, true or not, which we'll never know. But nudity has been apart of sports and fraternity hazing since hazing has been a thing, so I don't find it that hard to believe. I played sports my whole life and was in a fraternity. What's being described is pretty common if indeed that type of hazing was occurring.

Agree 100%! I can't imagine growing up with this stuff everywhere. But I guess you just wouldn't do have the crazy dumb stuff we did. So glad I was able to.
-
In this day and age with phones and social media, you've got to be an idiot to partake in this stuff or let it happen. Naked stuff has always been apart of it because it's considered the most humiliating, it's also the dumbest to do these days because people will literally be charged with sexual assault. Even when this stuff was considered "ok" it was dumb. Doing it now is really just idiotic, like a death wish.

Northwestern wouldn't have done much in the East fwiw. And they seem to be losing steam 3-9, 7-2, 3-9, 1-11 the last four seasons and that's in the West, so that's pretty awful.

I would just like to see more Florida guys again. I thought that was a very smart recruiting strategy. A three star from FLA is better than a three star from the Midwest.
-
Yeah, I have noticed that as well. It also seems like the bigger recruits we had been landing leave after a year or two and not necessarily to play at better schools. We'll be able to fill in the gaps with the portal, but it's definitely not a good thing. The one aspect that Allen had been doing seemingly well was recruiting, especially in Florida. That "well" seems to have all but dried up. But I was impressed by the portal pick ups. CTA desperately needs a bounce back year. But I am cautiously optimistic if we can get decent (not detrimental) QB play. My worry is he's going to give the job to Davis regardless if he deserves it or not. The coaches really have to pick the guy who's going to give them the best chance to win regardless of high school rankings or hype.

(2025) - Maya Makalusky to INDIANA
OGIUAndy replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Women's Basketball
Might be the understatement of the year, but Moren really turned this program around. It's been pretty incredible. Let's hope we see continued success in the Big Ten and tourney. -
Kokomo Monster (2024) - C Flory Bidunga to Kansas
OGIUAndy replied to Indiana muskie's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I'd say if he takes an official, we have more than a puncher's chance. -
Exactly, but there's no "loophole", those are just the rules.
-
This is an odd take though. I don't think it's a "loophole". The kid just did not enter the portal, right? So he'd just have to transfer like a normal player. So I'm not sure what "loophole" they are referring to unless I don't get what they are talking about?

And so has Michigan and UK.

Got it. Thought you might know since Cuban's lack of involvement is public knowledge. -

Fair enough. So what individual(s) do give money or were involved in the recruitment. -
Caleb Love - UNC Transfer to Arizona
OGIUAndy replied to Hovadipo's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I too would like some evidence of the cancer talk. He definitely shoots a lot, but the upside is there. Just needs to reign it in. -

This is so dumb, it makes my head spin.
