Do we have any visits going on this weekend?

Let the NFL buyer beware when it comes to selecting Simpson. This comment should be a huge red flag.

Just an observation, but if they remade Blue Chips today, Happy Kuykendahl would be the hero.

I hope that we play home and away against Northwestern this year. It's time for some payback!

Thank you to our deep pocket donors! IU basketball looks like it's going to be fun again!

I would love to get Sherrel and Reibe. We need a true 4 and true 5 to compete in the Big Ten. Is that being too greedy?

I would love to see at least 2 guards sign this weekend. That should make it easier to sign some big men. Good players want to know who they are going to play with.

There is certainly a role for him in the NBA, but undersized power forwards struggle unless they can consistently hit the three in the NBA. I wish him well.

My guess is that he was told that he was projected behind Prince Moody on the roster for next year.

I see Tucker suing the NCAA in a year trying to get back on a college roster.

I'd like for us to sign a top/star player in the first couple of days, then we can pitch to other recruits that you'll be playing with player X.

I do think Woodson was partially responsible as well. My guess is that the only way Dusty would have been our coach after Woodson's 3rd year, is if Mike Woodson would have willingly retired and endorsed Dusty. Mike wasn't willing to do that since he was delusional and thought he was a good coach. I don't think Dusty would have wanted anything to do with running off a former star player and fracturing the fanbase and IU financial supporters.

Cupps definitely needs to leave the Big Ten. The Atlantic 10 or the MAC would be a good fit for him.

This is funny, but also so painful.

I'm willing to withhold judgement on Devries until after this coming year. I am concerned with our second half collapses and how much of those can be contributed to not being able to adjust after the other teams adjusted. Devries seems like a good guy, and I want him to succeed. However, I'm getting older so I hope we can determine if someone is the guy in 2-3 years and don't have to wait 4 years.

This ended up being the difference in the game.

Be careful! That's what i said about Brad Stevens. :O)

Obviously, we need to see improvement from everyone who returns. I think Dorn returns as a starter which means that we only have to fill 4 starting positions. I think Sisley returns as a rotational player. I saw enough effort from Miles to think with development he can give us some bench minutes again. I barely saw Ristic play and I haven't seen Harris or Acimovic play. If I had to choose between Harris, Ristic, and Acimovic; I guess that I would choose Acimovic only because I like the idea of the last player being a developmental center.

At first, I thought this was a day-old April Fool's Day joke. I don't want to get political, but I don't believe this is the way of addressing this issue.

I have faith in Carr, DeVries, and staff to bring in the necessary talent. However, to paraphrase Oscar Schmidt, I hope they bring in some players that can play the piano and also some players that can move the piano. Last year, I thought we had too many piano players and not enough movers.

If we're going to overpay, pay for proven production and not optics and perceived talent.

Woodson didn't recruit him very hard. Unfortunately, there wasn't a first-class golf course in Greenfield.

Do we really want 2 starters from a team that finished 15th in the conference?

I'd prefer to see the Big ten return to 10 teams so we can do a true round robin in the regular season for basketball. In your scenario, I would keep Penn State and show Northwestern the door.
