LIHoosier Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Geez, just read the post. How terribly tragic. Quote
TheWatShot Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 I just talked to him a week ago. Crazy. Quote
JaybobHoosier Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Just saw it over on HSN...... total shock and really upset about this! Mile and I go way back as posters on the old Scout board, then becoming moderators there at the end of the Davis era, and then creating HSN with him......Will miss you Mile! Prayers to your family and friends, major loss to everyone and IU forums! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners johnsoniu, Naturalhoosier, WayneFleekHoosier and 1 other 4 Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 This is absolutely tragic. I’ve ‘known’ Ken from the old old scout boards. At least 15 years. I’m still trying to wrap my head around it. It’s funny the emotions that one can possess for someone they’ve never actually met. RIP Mile. Ken. Eric. Gary. They are sitting around a table sharing wings and beers. RIP fellas. johnsoniu, upperarlington, WayneFleekHoosier and 5 others 7 1 Quote
Magnanimous Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 He was an avid IU fan, made the old forums what they were (and still are on the new HSN) and seemed like a great guy. I know some knew him much better than I did, but I did enjoy hearing his stories as an older IU fan. RIP. JaybobHoosier and johnsoniu 2 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Prayers to the Milehi family! He’s been pretty active on the boards recently, I thought. Crazy. By all accounts, a great guy, like most of us Hoosiers!Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners JaybobHoosier, Class of '66 Old Fart and johnsoniu 3 Quote
hoosierfan6157 Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 So sad to hear this! Mile was a wonderful ambassador for HSN and so encouraging to so many of us. Praying for his family! WayneFleekHoosier and johnsoniu 2 Quote
mamasa Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 I’m just kinda numb. Mile always had an encouraging word, and was so gracious when I first started in the IU sports community. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners johnsoniu, Naturalhoosier, mdn82 and 1 other 4 Quote

8bucks Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Hate to hear that. Mile was a good guy and was a friend to anyone he met unless it was that Roy character from UNC. sad newsSent from my iPad using BtownBanners johnsoniu and mamasa 2 Quote

Demo Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Wouldn’t know him from Adam, but whenever I checked out HSN Mile was unfailingly gracious to everyone. Losing a truly decent man who also happened to love IU sports before his time diminishes our world just a touch. RIP, Sir. WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote

Lmao We areactually discussing those things he always believed in. No matter what. Hated TrustinRoy Hated, for whatever reason, Illinois Bragged nonstop about the site(s) being free. The Jeffries rule in recruiting How unless a player stayed 4 years, they were not a true Hoosier. Etc etc etc The man was a character for sure. Thanks BTB, for the kind words. We have lost two legends (crester) back to back. Godspeed to you all. Life is precious. Enjoy it, hug your loved ones and let go any of petty grudges you may have. Oh, and cheer like crazy for our Hoosiers! Edited December 18, 2020 by bluegrassIU HoosierAloha, IUsafety, Class of '66 Old Fart and 4 others 7 Quote

There were a sh*t ton of Illinois trolls who used to spam that board back in the day. He mentioned getting a lot of nasty messages from some of them. Quote
