  1. That Kohler dude on MSU must not be getting any NIL $$ based on his haircut
  2. Does not surprise me. @Scotty R has done this multiple times
  3. Any truth to the rumor that there was a tortoise walking around Bloomington with Woodson’s head on it?
  4. Don’t know. Maybe you Better Call Saul
  5. So, food that can be eaten with less than 3 teeth!
  6. All I can hear in my head is Crystal Blue Persuasion
  7. More importantly, whatever happened to that Gay something Marie guy that used to blather on about his Cayuts?
  8. Let me be clear. I am not all in on the Chris Beard bandwagon. If we could get Stevens, May, Oates or TJ, I would be ecstatic. Just want to keep an open mind when it comes to Beard
  9. Then, you’d be okay hiring him?
  10. Since we are eliminating candidates based on the results of today’s games, I guess all my pontificating about Beard is for naught as they are behind by 11 at home v Miss. State
  11. And that’s the dilemma. Take the chance and either become the GOAT in regards to IU ADs, or become the goat that everyone blames and wants to see burned at the stake. I don’t know Scott Dolson. I don’t know Pam Whitten. Can’t even imagine what they might do. I do know that throughout history, people who are considered great had to take a gamble at some point.
  12. Completely understand. As I said, his hiring would be divisive. I have a wife, daughters, granddaughters and soon a great-granddaughter. I get it. I also try to put myself in other’s shoes. I bet most everyone has something in their past that they don’t want to be made public. Faith can be the foundation for change. Hoping Chris can embrace that whether he comes to Bloomington or not
  13. “You’ll shoot your eye out!”
  14. Not sure that this will make sense to some people. Hell, a lot of stuff posted here doesn’t make sense. But here’s my take on Beard. Yes, a good coach who can win big here Yes, he would be divisive.He might drive off some big donors, but if he starts winning like I think he can, they’d start coming back. Yes he’s a big risk. All that to say. Based on his stated love and respect of RMK. Based on him outwardly expressing that he wants the IU job. I think Chris Beard would turn a new leaf in Bloomington. I think he views IU as his church, and RMK his mentor. I believe that he would not do anything that would tarnish those things he holds as so important to him. For lack of better words, I think IU would be the salvation for Chris Beard. Whether the opportunity exists for him will require some open minds who believe in the concept of redemption. Whether the opportunity exists is going to take leadership who believes that the IU brand is strong enough to take the initial hit it will undoubtedly take, and believe that the reward is worth the risk. I have personally seen people who have been in as low or lower places than Beard, and have changed themselves to become well respected individuals who contribute to the greater good of society. All it takes is one person, one group of leaders, to give him the chance.
  15. I would take 5 Luke Goodes over some of these other guys. He plays with heart. Can’t say as much for Rice .
  16. And he cares deeply about IU. Can’t imagine how hard it must be for him to sit on his hands and not say anything
  17. My last thought on this… Let Fisch have a say in this decision. He has seen, firsthand, pretty much every candidate in the pool. He has been around long enough to know what good coaching looks like. Take his opinion and weigh it as heavily as anything else. Nothing has worked in this process for the last 25 years. What would it hurt to listen to him?
  18. Either- Our insiders were wrong or The aliens at the Holiday Inn in Paramis that declared the end of the world on Valentines Day, 2015 were wrong. Only one can be right. You decide which one is telling the truth!
  19. He’s in his 60’s. No way he makes it on an inside the park Homer. Oxygen at third base maybe
  20. With all due respect. Based on reports, I don’t think Chris’ liver makes it to 85
  21. When I was a student the Timeout was a great place for good music. Whatever happened to that?
  22. Not everything basketball related has been a disaster. IUWBB and Coach Moren have put together a pretty impressive run
