Mgbako hasn’t figured out that he needs to move after an opponent takes a shot…..block out, go get the ball, do something other than stand and watch with his feet glued to the floor. If anyone has sat down with him and showed him tape of himself, it hasn’t changed anything in 24 games.

He also won’t have Hiller as his OL coach

Wonder why Trilly put May in OSU’s list. Don’t remember him being a manager there, so there must be some other reason.

I think the phrase “flavor of the month” is the flavor of the month.

I wouldn’t bet any games with IUPUI, they seem wildly inconsistent. Watched them beat PFW at the Coliseum in Fort Wayne, then turned around and lost to them by almost 30 at home, lol.

This is the problem people are having. Maybe some people think he’s at Florida. But he’s not at Florida, or Dayton, or Marquette, or Butler. The thought of FAU having winning seasons, let alone going to a FF and then beating Arizona and some of the teams they have beat this season, was an absolutely absurd thought just a few short years ago.

Have not seen him on the signing lists IU has released, which is a little surprising because I thought he had an offer from James Madison.

If I'm AD, I'm in the process right now of contacting at least the names on your list via backchannels to gauge interest in case I need to make a change.

Yes, and he’s been called for traveling

Purdue 87, Indiana 65

Thanks, that’s what I suspected.

There’s probably some new technology since Ballou and Rhea left IU 4 years ago. Not sure how much we were fully taking advantage of that since then.

True, but this far into the season, I think they will also need to blow a couple teams out to improve it that much.

Great post, thank you.

Ohio St 76, Indiana 68

Yeah, I think there’s a difference.

I’ve heard that “forced” isn’t the right word, “talked him into it” is more accurate.

My computer rankings, which include games through yesterday, 2/4/24. I've added Div. I records and last week's ranking: 1 Purdue 21 - 2 ( 2 ) 2 Houston 19 - 3 ( 1 ) 3 Arizona 17 - 5 ( 3 ) 4 Connecticut 20 - 2 ( 6 ) 5 Alabama 16 - 6 ( 7 ) 6 Tennessee 16 - 5 ( 4 ) 7 North Carolina 18 - 4 ( 5 ) 8 BYU 16 - 5 ( 8 ) 9 Auburn 18 - 4 ( 11 ) 10 Iowa St 16 - 5 ( 9 ) 11 Illinois 17 - 5 ( 13 ) 12 New Mexico 17 - 4 ( 10 ) 13 Baylor 15 - 5 ( 18 ) 14 Kansas 17 - 4 ( 15 ) 15 Utah St 17 - 3 ( 12 ) 16 Marquette 17 - 5 ( 19 ) 17 San Diego St 15 - 5 ( 17 ) 18 Wisconsin 16 - 6 ( 14 ) 19 Creighton 16 - 6 ( 16 ) 20 Dayton 18 - 3 ( 20 ) 21 Duke 16 - 5 ( 23 ) 22 Indiana St 19 - 3 ( 21 ) 23 Colorado St 15 - 5 ( 26 ) 24 Michigan St 14 - 8 ( 30 ) 25 FL Atlantic 18 - 4 ( 24 )

As I said in another post, it's not about what side of political fence he's on, it's about the hypocrisy, which you provided a perfect example of.

Purdue is 44 years removed from their last Final Four and has never won a national championship. They are in no way, shape, or form what we used to be.

Ohio State is very good.

My point is the hypocrisy, not which side of the fence he is on politically.

I don’t know, Dakich is probably right about some things. But a guy who littered his radio show with his politics and then accuses Woodson of being political doesn’t have much credibility.

Could you be more specific about exactly why Indiana’s basketball culture is the worst, and exactly how you think Josh Schertz is equipped to overcome that?
