Was a pretty good coach. We ran basically a five out system and shot a bunch of threes. Got up as high as third in 2A in a class that has Derek Elston and Deshaun Thomas

Saw a post game story that he was in foul trouble with 4 and was assessed a technical which put him out of the game.   Kentucky immediately went on a big run.

We can return the favor tonight

Illinois will implement a 35-second shot clock starting 2026-2027.  As of February of this year 27 states already had a shot clock in effect for HS bball.  

Like it or not, it's inevitable.

The 2024 City of Palms Classic will run from Dec. 18 to Dec. 23 in Fort Myers, FL.  Field is really loaded and a chance to watch a number of IU targets if you're near Fort Myers and don't have other plans.

Our last shutout win over Purdue was in 1942. 

Psst.  You're in the roundball thread.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,046]

Yes, I know the Hoosiers are on TV tonight at 7:00  but you might also want to check in on Fishers HS vs. Noblesville HS.  Jason Gardner and Cooper Zachary for Fishers and Justin Curry for Noblesville.    Tipoff set for 7:30.  If you miss it tonight, you can probably catch a replay tomorrow at the same site.

I've got a good game for you guys to check out if you are from the Bloomington area.... My alma-mater Class A #1 ranked Clay City heads to Bloomfield to play Class A #3 ranked Bloomfield Saturday night. JV tips at 6, Varsity approx. 7:30. Should be a great atmosphere. It will be interesting to see how Clay City tries to neutralize Bloomfield's star Neal.

Man, Neill is a monster. Watched him torch everyone at the WV Classic in Terre Haute. I don't know how he doesn't have more (any?) college interest.

Hard to say…maybe because he’s not just freaky athletic. He just knows how to use his body and has tremendous IQ. Clay City (my uncle coaches) will run multiple defenses at him, and they are one of the few teams who have several guys that have enough size to match up a little bit….they may decide too that Neill can have his 30 and just shut everyone else down. It’s going to be a chess match
