    That statement says that it doesn't matter if the foul happened before or after the buzzer since it did come while the ball was still in the air. If the officials are so quick to turn on Duke, maybe they'll lose their gloss when it comes to recruiting quicker than I thought. One can hope.

    Seems like a well run, disciplined program.
  3. Since there was a discussion going on in a game thread about JHS's chances of being drafted, I thought I'd start a thread to discuss the draft likelihood of any of IU's players. Here JHS and TJD are talked about: https://www.theringer.com/2023/2/8/23590732/nba-draft-show-indianas-jalen-hood-schifino-and-trayce-jackson-davis

    IUBB vs Rutger aka/Ruger - Tuesday, 2/7/23 @ 6:30 on BTN

    If they see something in his shooting that can be fixed, I don't think that would turn them off of him. They have great coaches in the NBA who can improve his shooting. It might be an issue if they think it's unfixable and he's just a bad shooter and will likely not improve much even with more coaching. The game has changed some since the mid-90s, but I remember Eric Snow from MSU having a long NBA career. That surprised me because he was a terrible shooter in college. Very bad. Sub-.500 FT shooter bad. So there is precedence for a PG who can't shoot still being valuable.

    Coach K sure was a tough disciplinarian.

    That makes more sense than it actually being Kopp. IMO, Galloway is much more fun to watch than Kopp.

    I hope not. I enjoy seeing them suck.

    17 to IU's 9. The Hoosiers also couldn't hit the broad side of a barn and had the ball stolen 7 times. An all around terrible game for them.

    The last semester makes sense since they don't have to worry about maintaining eligibility for the next season. The whole year thing is what has me surprised.

    Portland snatches defeat from the jaws of victory. Crazy ending.

    I thought they had to be working towards a degree of some sort, not just taking classes. Guess I was wrong.

    HOW SWEEP IT IS

    2 points in a quarter is the fewest points in a quarter this season. So at some point they've either scored only 1 point in a quarter or got shut out for one. Ouch.

    Got it. I didn't understand what you meant by that.

    I'd argue that it's already in the process of doing that even with Boeheim there. They've been pretty mediocre since joining the ACC. They have had some nice NCAAT runs in that time, though, despite their mediocre regular seasons.

    Not sure why you're quoting me. I said it's doubtful he'll use it, which that tweet agrees with. So doubtful that Coach is already counting him as gone. That doesn't change the fact that he could return for a 5th year.

    Yes, he could. He has a 5th year of eligibility to use if he wants it. It's doubtful he'll use it though.

    I think Dairy Queen acquired that company because you can get Orange Julius at those. It's an orange cream slushy. Pretty tasty.

    Yes, and I would venture a guess those who think it's bad probably haven't accepted that we're not at the same level as those teams right now. The fans it doesn't bother have probably accepted that.

    Other than fan base d**k measuring contests (mostly online and anonymous), why does it even matter if they storm the court or not? It's a program that just beat the #1 team in a close game which was exciting for a team and fan base that hasn't had a ton of success the last ~5 years. Even more exciting was that it was against Purdue.

    I've thought the same. I was disappointed at the time but now I don't care and I'm kind of glad he's not wasting an IU scholarship.

    Going back to 2014 (10 seasons, including this one - basically, the time when the majority of the current students probably started paying attention to sports), IU has won only 3 times in 16 games against PU. So the old people like us may think of PU as "little brother" but they've pretty much owned us as far as the current students are concerned.

    Right, it's not as though they're storming the court after blowing out unranked Nebraska.

    We'll really miss his 9 games per season when he transfers.

    You have 5 fouls to give anyways. Have any eligibility left?
