The 'official redirected off-topic conversations from other threads' thread

This thread is like the liminal space of the offseason for BtownBanners -

At least we can all agree on IUBB and horseradish (hopefully we can all agree on that much...) -

Lol. Now I want to do a poll to see this board's opinion on ketchup vs. malt vinegar... How deep does the tomato hatred go? -

I feel like the timeline of information traveling is tough to account for and also not worth reading too far into. Maybe I'm wrong about that. But FWIW, apparently someone charges $70 for VIP access to that discord. So I think it's someone fairly connected. That they had the decision time before Osterman wouldn't be totally shocking. Doesn't mean they also know the decision already/that's it's KU. Necessarily. We will find out soon enough. -

KU Twitter still feels very confident. Screenshot of a discord chat where at 9:30 they said he'd announce at this time. 2 hours ahead of when Osterman tweeted it. Doesn't mean anything definitively though -

While we're on the topic of condiments, I never saw as much Ranch as when as I was in Indiana... At the time I was assured everyone from Indiana loves ranch (as in, dipping their pizza in it... could've skipped that era of the freshman 15... okay, closer to freshman 50) Did I just run in a ranch heavy circle or is that actually a thing in Indiana? Because the unofficial NJ state breakfast would be Taylor Ham, Egg, and Cheese with salt/pepper/ketchup -

Do you feel the same way about a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich with ketchup on it? -

Scrambled eggs? Some will look at me as a maniac, others will understand they can't be eaten any other way. -

Rumor has it MM is going to KU because when Woodson found out Mack prefers to dip his french fries in mayonnaise instead of Ketchup, the offer was pulled... -

This is obviously XJ realizing his first tweet was driving the fan base into a rabid depression, and he had to give us another fleeting glimpse of hope before MM commits to KU tomorrow. Not looking good....... IMO /s -

Oh wow, didn't realize that was with Mike Vernon... I see among his many scoops, 2 years ago was KU to B10 haha... That makes me feel more at ease about the twitter chatter in KU circles. In all likelihood just HD trying to build his KU following while having fun at IU fan's expense, since we know how much he loves our fan base -

This is the final post I will make on the subject because I am not looking for drama and would rather argue with KU fans. It's message board banter and not a big deal. Just an odd thing to do IMO ... Snide (adjective): derogatory or mocking in an indirect way (per Oxford dictionary). Edit: yes, you can call me snide/petty or whatever for this post. Lol -

This board's opinion on the utility of info gleaned from social media seems to change like the direction of the wind, lol. Not sure why someone would visit a message board and click on a recruiting thread if they're not interested in the latest news on recruits. If you don't consider social media activity to be news, that's fine... if nothing else, it is contextual information that you can ignore without snide comments. Guess there is no fun in that though -

"It ain't about right now, it's about the long run." Edit: really doesn't sound good considering Mgbako follows XJ, if any of the IU players have been communicating with Mgbako, X is one of the most likely (probably along with JHS maybe TJD) -

HD also just abruptly dropped off the space because he had to "take a call" The host of the space joked it's probably KU calling to tell him to shut the hell up and stop talking to them -

The other day HD posted a gif of something blipping on a radar, getting closer. Today, allegedly HD was in a Twitter space and asked about Mgbako. He "acted kinda weird when asked about it. Said that he and Kansas definitely have their eyes on someone (Mgbako) and they will figure it out soon." Think the (Mgbako) was implied, but not plainly stated. -

I disagree - if I'm Banks or Gunn and they bring in some mediocre transfer from a mid-major conference, I think I can go and compete. If they bring in MM, I'm not getting on the court for major minutes until I'm a junior in all likelihood and may want to explore options. We can agree to disagree, doesn't really matter. Hopefully we're in a good place on Friday! -

Yes they are aware of MM's recruitment. I think the distinction is in whether the coaching staff specifically goes out of their way to ask a recruit not to announce a decision - that has already been made - until after the transfer deadline, for the explicit purpose of stopping players from leaving. Withholding that info from them until it's too late... the adjectives for that behavior are not flattering. Knowing something is a possibility is different than knowing something is for a fact going to happen (which it would be, withholding, if he informed a staff about a decision and they asked him to not announce until later). It is a big decision to leave a university and transfer, uproot your whole life. You wouldn't want to do that unless the situation materially changed... which bringing in this kind of player would do. Staff should operate with transparency with these young men. And I believe Woodson and team do. -

I can't think of a worse way to do business in this era of college basketball than manipulating a kid into a situation they don't want to be in by not clearly communicating that plans are changing and expectations need to be reset. It will kill your team chemistry for the entire year before they grumpily transfer and dissuade their network from joining your program. Recruiting over happens all the time, but players need to know where they stand. That's fair. Misleading them into believing it will be a certain way only until they no longer have other options would be worse than a bad look. -

After watching the first 5 minutes of this, I think the positive impact of having Dad on the visit to IU can't be overstated
