TTT

That’s a realistic and accurate assessment.

No kidding. Stanford is a noticeable much better team and a National Championship contender as they are over and over again.

Jet Lag impact on athletes performance. Fatigue Science part 1.

Maybe another quick overnight trip to Spain is needed for some re-bonding is needed.

IU Ladies get knocked down in rankings 20 to 25. Looking different this year in comparison to last year and the last few years. North Carolina State goes up 10 to 15. Stanford goes up to 9 or above and is a championship contender in March. Jet Lag and 3 hours time zone difference.

The Real McCoys beating up the Pretenders. Noticeable difference in physicality. Bigger, quicker, and more bounce in Stanford. 3 hours difference time zone….for years big ten teams (Ohio State and Michigan) had same challenges in the New Years Day Rose Bowl.

Oh Hum….Yawn.

Virginia Tech led by Kenny Brooks Ladies Basketball seem to take the character and personality of their coach and is one of the classiest basketball programs in all of Ladies college basketball.

Beaumont pleasantly playing sound. Parrish needs to play better vs Stanford (shoot better). Free throws? L. Bargesser will be on the floor (even calling bank shots) like Tiny Nate Arcibald cruising around the floor. Great to see her play with a recovered leg injury. The quick speed is special and work is really standing out. Stanford will tell a more realistic story.

Jelks had wisdom teeth pulled this week and missed some practice pre-game per T.M. Post game when T.Moren was asked what it meant to her to get her 400th college basketball win? T. Moren stated “it means we are going to shoot 400 free throws.”

2024 and 2025….Looking for the much needed return of Parrish and Moore McNeil.

FGC veteran 3 point shooting team (playing without their best player) vs a middle of the pack big ten team on its home floor.

50%

Not overly happy with it but will take it and not sad or depressed about it.

50% football is satisfactory. That would be overall regular season records on average at 6 and 6. Some years more wins and some years less wins….and that’s significant improvement. over the average of 5.04 wins in the IU football history. Top solid programs after the elite football programs only average in the rough estimate range 6.75 to 7.25 wins per year. Regular season is only 12 games. There are only so many wins to go around each season. Regardless of slow learning coaching process and mistakes probably costing a win this season (maybe even 2) in a game…. No way IU should fire a football coach if a 4 game win streak happens regardless of quality that equals a 6 and 6 record going to the hoopla bowl game.

LSU vs Colorado LOL. Good for Ladies college basketball…and LSU…and Good for Colorado. Lady Buckeyes go down vs USC. Sunday, IU Ladies have a chance to move on up.

Does IU football have the possibility of one additional win added as Michigan fiasco unravels? That would be another layer of insulation for T.A. and a feather in his cap. A confusing world even in football

SC is back…that didn’t take long.

Inside IU Ladies Basketball with T. Moren and Austin This Evening Monday, November 6…6:30 @ 96.7

Good chance for Overtime game. IU football momentum in regulation time/no overtime…. IU. 27 Illinois. 20

IU football frustrations include this season is that T.A. and coaching are slow learners. Things that are being observed in late part of October and November should have been strategized and handled during spring ball, summer and preseason. Examples are firing Bell, QB passing game McCulley improving, not trying to run Lucas as featured back between tackles etc…things happening recently should have been resolved before game 1. Always seem to be playing behind learning curve.

Overly excited.

After Colorado beat TCU I made comment that at end of season Colorado and IU would have identical records. At 4 and 8, 5 and 7, 6 and 6 range. And at 6 and 6 a possible bowl game match up.

I estimate a 60% chance IU makes it to a bowl game. If 2024 matches or improves by at least even one game which I estimate a 45% chance…T.A. will go nowhere nor should he.

Recently, IU did have a winning puzzle but the pieces were out of order. Husky sure is a fun dog to watch.
