    Transfer Portal w IU Interest

    IU with the 8th ranked portal class. 8 players ranked as 4 stars. That's Moneyball to me. When needing to build an entire roster, don't blow the budget on 1 or 2 5 stars, but load up on very good complementary players eight deep. https://247sports.com/season/2025-basketball/transferteamrankings/

    Was it his role to play half his minutes not even looking toward the basket? Forget looking for his own shot. His shoulders and back face the basket more than his chest.

    The Olympics have been ruined. Nobody cares anymore. That’s where college sports are headed

    I wouldn’t be the one establishing the rule would I? If you’re getting paid by the University, you can’t be getting in public measuring contests

    If Goode is part of the team, the coaching staff needs to be clear that he can’t be commenting on social media. No responding to Dakich. That needs to be a directive for the whole team.

    Yeah, the phone in the box at McNutt didn't come with a camera

    Thought that was really odd that they're interested. Wade's teams play hard.

    Much better offensively than Reynolds. Just not a perimeter shooter

    It would have seemed crazy last year, but I wonder if Pope actually took a better job at UK. BYU is loaded with NIL and in the Biq 12 vs SEC. SEC will have more overall revenue, but BYU will be at a competitive advantage to a lot of Big 12 teams.

    2025-2026 IU Roster

    I think they were trying to create a vibe of four guys in a bar talking bball. Unfortunately, the quality of the conversation was about at that level.

    TDH lists him as eligible to return, but when his transfer to IU was announced it said he was a grad student using his 5th season of eligibility.

    So, do you think Tucker has a better year if he's surrounded by shooters or if he's the focal point of the defense? Geesh

    It’s just embarrassing how bad the last regime was.

    New Basketball Staff Thread

    It feels so cutting edge and modern to hire a coach with connections in CBB. Next we'll hear the IU athletic department will replace their rotary phones. It's making my head spin.
  20. I heard he was about to sign an IU contract on the set of Breaking Bad, then was stung by a scorpion and took it as an evil omen.

  23. Stevens was never in play: “Let me put a pin in that balloon too,” Grousbeck said when asked about the challenges of staying in the luxury tax. “It’s not the luxury tax bill, it’s the basketball penalties. The new CBA was designed by the league to stop teams from going crazy. Grousbeck went on to describe the various team building basketball penalties involved with being a second apron, something the Celtics have been above for this season and the team’s championship run. While doing so, he dropped a very big hint about Boston’s plans for the upcoming ownership as new ownership is phased in. “The basketball penalties mean that it’s even more of a premium now to have your basketball general manager be brilliant and lucky,” Grousbeck said. “Because you have to navigate because you can’t stay in the second-apron, nobody will, I predict, for the next 40 years of the CBA, no one is going to stay in the second apron more than two years.” “We have Brad Stevens, the reigning Executive of The Year, and thank god we do,” Grousbeck said. “He’s the one who really brought us this championship with his brilliant moves --along with many other people -- but Brad is at the forefront. He’s looking at this and is going to extend our window and make it work. We’ll find out in June or July what we’re going to do.” https://www.masslive.com/celtics/2025/03/wyc-grousbeck-drops-big-hint-on-boston-celtics-offseason-plans-amid-sale.html
