TTT

UCLA defense getting tired in quarter one.

Gus Johnson please quit over pronouncing your words.

Good morning….come over here little Bruins…here little Bruins….come here little guy……

20 win seasons of success probably need to be adjusted upwards to 24 wins per seasons of success as a bench mark. (20 wins seem out dated)…..or single digits in the loss column as 9 losses or less.

Is there going to be another top 20 recruit on campus this weekend per Indiana Women Basketball News??? Anyone know who????

Ok Makalusky has been in the IU Ladies program long enough. Interested in the Makalusky and Garzon matchup vs Maryland.

IU women basketball recruiting has improved some….but there are those schools that top 10 recruits belong too and those schools continuing to compete in the top 25 recruits area much more than IU Ladies. Now, competing for the top 50 recruits that market has been competitively expanded among more schools where IU is creatively competitive. Winning 20 games is ok and is kind of borderline solid season because a team plays around 30 games and that includes lower level pre season programs. 20 win seasons are not that impressive. 20 wins 13 loses = 60%

If IU doesn’t at least solidly win this game with somewhat dominant performance…this season will have already peaked and tail off….. IU wins this game at least within a a touchdown of point spread and more than likely covers point spread.

That’s fine and dandy, a good start, and the right verbal! Attitude. Now, go out and win 25 to 30 plus games……don’t see how that is going to happen….but just do it anyway, anyhow, everywhere, all the time.

I think Daley will do well. Who backs up Daley?….Landino…..Ndukwe

IU 42 UCLA 10

Prove it wrong…7-0

IU 38. MSU. 13 UCLA. 38. MSU 10 IU vs UCLA at IU Win Probability IU 94% UCLA 6%

In many years of tradition by this time of year (by October) IU was simply pretty beat up and injuries accumulated to an already deficient roster and coaching without depth at various positions. The last year and half IU has physically matched up well with very low injuries and definitely not beat up because of superior coaching and talented players.

I don’t feel sorry for Michigan State or any opponent. Over 92,000,000 million reasons (and no opponents ever felt sorry for IU). It’s been spotted again in the house that coach Curt Cignetti built. (and all those involved in this era of IU football)

Well if you are going to consider Dolson, you should consider Whitten as well. She has her haters…but she has been somewhat high profile in both men and women basketball and she loves that center of attention in football….now since its success. Does Cig hire and success happen with Brand? Herbert? McRobbie? Answer: NOOO!

That would be good. You are correct. Friday morning Accuweather is showing no rain as well…and as possibly at very end of game.

IU vs Michigan State Rain 94% chance Wind 15 mph Gusts 31mph .44 inch Rain Cloud Cover 94%….IU coaching in the rain is paid for…..See how good IU can coach and play in the rain. 1983….Indiana State 9 wins 4 losses (3-2 in Missouri Valley Conference). They were a decent team. Florida State 17 Indiana State Sycamores 13

In the future whether some fans will be dead and those that are still alive Indiana should finally have a retired coach with an elite winning record making Indiana an elite football program.

Well rounded all around athlete including football….don’t forget…..Milt Campell. Came to IU 1953.

It’s also getting attached in a meaningful (thoughtful perspective and process) way to coaches and players as in you get to know the team, coaches and players image. They grow on the fans….you actually get to know them and who they are. It makes it so much easier to support and back the high level positive character they represent in the Cignetti era….He continually emphasizes the high character players and coaches in the/his program and thus far it has been remarkably demonstrated.

Looking at apartment rentals lately as in luxury upscale upwards of $3,000+/month.

Some things are obvious ticket sales, fans, donor support, merchandise, etc etc but how do you measure the IU brand impact financially and the significance of Whitten, Dolson (he talked about blueprint in making this hire….where was the blueprints in making other hires rather than pulling them out of one’s backside lol…,or since it has worked so well now you had a blueprint…remember that on future hires. And then the major main significance of Cignetti, his family, coaching staff, support staff and all others involved….back to the main point….the financial significance of the IU brand led by coach Cignetti….. measuring stick.

I don’t disagree. But the focus is on football now rather than wishing just get the football season over with so basketball season can start (accept basketball has become dismissal seasons as well). Now, the last season and a half football is setting a bar to which basketball season can be measured against and it just so happens at the beginning of the school year. as Pagoda points out.
