The twitter speculation/rumor is that it's gambling related. UW says they won't comment further based on privacy laws. Temple says they won't comment because he is no longer there. He was a backup at Temple so I imagine he was just a "we have an unused scholarship so let's use it for another body" player. I read he hadn't played in their exhibition games and was practicing as part of the scout team. Won't hurt UW at all.

I'll be here all week. Don't forget to tip your servers.

I don't know, I think we want players who are used to winning. ;)

In one game (Illinois, I think), Alberto didn't even throw a pass so they ran every play. They still scored 2 TD. As for the sh*t-talking/cockiness, some of what people considered to be that was saying that IU would be making the B1G Championship game and CFP. No one believed it possible so they just chalked it up to talk. Yet here we are, having already made the CFP in year 1 and look very good to make both the B1G Championship and CFP in year 2. It's not looking like sh*t-talking or cockiness now, just a great prediction.

(2027) PG - Chase Branham to INDIANA

It could be that basketball recruiting is starting to be more like football recruiting. In football, a "commitment" is essentially just who is the current leader and the players often continue to make visits. -
IU Mens/Womens Swimming and Diving
go iu bb replied to LIHoosier's topic in Other Indiana Hoosiers Athletics
The Hoosiers won both meets easily, even with some swimmers competing in the World Cup meet instead of this one and others swimming off events. Men: 199 - 101 Women: 187.5 - 112.5 https://swimswam.com/raekwon-noel-and-toby-barnett-each-win-3-events-to-help-propel-indiana-past-kentucky/ -
Seeing how they've gone about recruiting so far, I have a hard time believing that they thought they were too far behind on a 2027 recruit to catch up. More likely they saw something that made them think he wouldn't be a great fit for the program they're building.

It looks like IU is also committed to keeping him well compensated as long as he does well. If he makes the CFP Semi-finals, they'll make sure he's the 3rd (or better) highest paid coach. They've also committed to the coaching staff, keeping it top 5 in the B1G and top 10 nationally. Firing him would be very expensive, since it's not only 100% of his remaining contract but also all of the remaining retention bonuses.

IU Mens/Womens Swimming and Diving

The swim teams don't have recruiting problems. The women add a very good sprinter to their 2027 class. https://swimswam.com/botr-sprinter-addy-gebhart-hands-verbal-commitment-to-hoosiers-for-2027/ -
(2026) - Anthony Thompson to O$U

Now that they're back up: Rabjohns is saying that no one has any idea which way it will go yet but it is between IU and OSU, anyone one else would be surprising. He is still planning on announcing tomorrow but there is no time set. -

You forgot to mention that he's smart.

For clarification, is that the interim HC or the permanent one? -

(2026) WR Lavar Keys to INDIANA
go iu bb replied to Lebowski's topic in Indiana Football Recruiting Forum
There was at least enough interest that IU got a visit on June 13th according to the 247 link. -
Using the win probabilities on ESPN, IU has a better than 50% chance (51.6%) of going undefeated this season. In 4 of the 6 games, they give IU a 94.5% or better chance of winning. The lower two are 86.2% at Maryland and 71.3% at PSU.
