To me, Tucker sounds like a more athletic, not quite as strong version of JHS.

Understand your hesitancy, but with an injury requiring microfracture surgery ( and I had that surgery) at this stage of his recovery, 90% is mental. Having confidence that your leg is going to hold up to the stress of playing. If in his head he's 100%, that's going to make him play much more instinctively than if he has doubts that hold him back

Juwan Howard hires on as an assistant with the Brooklyn Nets

I did, thanks

I agree that RMK had built the cache to warrant folks overlooking his abrasiveness, and Woodson has yet to do so. Also agree that at the time, Woodson’s Senior Night comments came across wrong. However, those comments were made 6 weeks ago, and it’s time to let them go. No one was personally hurt by his words, but it sure seems like some folks are hanging onto them as if they were.

If the staff is making a big push for this guy, they must know that Mason is announcing for somewhere else tomorrow

My opinion only - Woodson did not win with “Archie’s players.” Several of the players, especially TJD and Race, were headed elsewhere. Woodson had to re-recruit those guys and sell them on what he could do to advance their games. At the point they agreed to come back, they became Woodson’s players. - The whole “real fans” and “chill” comments have been overblown by some butthurt folks just looking for a reason to be butthurt. My gosh, grow a pair. RMK was much more condescending at times with some of his comments and actions towards fans he felt weren’t as knowledgeable or weren’t buying in. Time to let it go. - This year is make or break for Woodson. Expectations should be high. However quantifying what that means in regards to records, seeding, tournament results, is a guessing game now. 8-10 games into the season should provide a much better indication of whether Woodson has this team on track for where we all want them to go. - This is the fire Woodson thread, and I respect the opinions of those who want him gone. I am willing to see what this season brings before deciding either way

Awesome job by the staff. It was mentioned earlier that Archie should have recruited Goode all along. Pet peeve for me in that IU has consistently ignored the northern part of the state. Lots of good basketball up here and rarely is IU seriously involved with high level recruits. Common knowledge that Archie assumed Furst was IU bound and stopped recruiting him. Painter, who is active and visible here came in and swept him up. Maybe Luke’s commitment will be the first step in changing this, but I remain skeptical

Ft. Wayne media states that Malone will make his decision on Monday

Guess this is travel related. Spending three weeks at our cabin in Western N. Carolina. Went for breakfast this morning. One of the specials was catfish and grits. Who in the hell would eat that at 8:30 in the morning?

As I said previously, he averaged 15 minutes a game last year. To me, that doesn’t scream “ I have to start.”

Mady Sissoko from MSU is still available. Big body. Decent defender. Averaged 15 mpg last year, down from 21 the year before. Don't think limited minutes would be an issue. Only has one year left, which fits. Improved his free throw shooting from in the 40% range his first two years, to 70% last year. Tons of experience in high level games. Knows the physicality of the B1G.

Expect a picture when it happens :)

I will take you up on this. What will it take for you to paint your face?

Hey! I'm old and I understood his message

Somewhere along the line I had to read Pearl Buck's "Goode Earth" :)

Asking again as it may have gotten buried. Anything pertinent with the Malone visit?

With this news on Thiero, does that mean that any offer to Malone has been put on hold? Is his visit over?
