NIT Round 2 Game Thread - IU vs. Arkansas | 3/23 (Sat.) @Noon (ET) on ESPN

[yogisballin 2,297]

I wouldn't say the NIT is meaningless.  Yeah, backseat to the Big Dance, but I would rather win this than some Pre-con Tourney! 
I'm actually excited for noon Saturday!  Going to have the grill and smoker rolling all day!   Steaks for the IU game and beef short ribs for supper.

What you got going in the smoker? Had thought about getting mine going

The ex-wife is dragging me back to court for full custody instead of joint custody, for no good reason. How do I respond? I buy tickets for me and the almost 7-year old daughter to tomorrow's game! Here's hoping Romeo plays, and good IU shows up for her first game. 

Man that sucks! I’ve been there brother, best of luck to you. Idk how any good mother wouldn’t want their father in their child’s life. Know what I’m saying? It’s been a good while since I had to battle this, there were a lot of days when I just wanted to give up bc it always felt like it couldn’t get any worse. Keep your head high and focus on the long term prize which is your child. Still to this day my ex apologizes for putting us through all of that. She says that it was bc she was young and dumb and was ONLY trying to hurt me. Not realizing at that time, could’ve really hurt our child so much more. Glad things turned out the way the have

Seems like there is gonna be a good crowd today according to Twitter.

Over 8,000 non student tickets sold with plenty more expected to walk-up. May be the NIT, but it’s still Hoosier basketball!

Visually, bigger crowd right now (40 minutes until tip) than the Wisconsin Big Ten home game that went into double OT.

Holy cow I was wrong about the crowd. 

And that is a GREAT thing.

I hope they can win. Going to be much tougher without Romeo

The balcony is still mostly empty (from my side) but the main level is almost completely full

I thought Romeo was all about team. This is disapponting.

He's injured. And honestly, even if he wasn't injured and still decided not to play, oh well. If he leaves we're gonna have to learn to play without him anyway. Might as well get a head start.

Yes.  he was ranked as the #6 recruit in the country.   One spot behind Zion Williamson.  He was officially very over rated and I don't buy this "sore back" thing one bit.

Good news - Race is dressed and warming up.  

[Whoozhers 3,652]
