On this note, what are we all drinking during the game tonight? I've got a nice Il Poggione Rosso di Montalcino lined up. I'm a sommelier so feel free to ask for recommendations any time lol

Haven't decided yet but I'll prepare myself for after the Ohio State game when I get home if and when my tear ducts are all cried out.

You’re right the HH collective is shady.  It’s a zero transparency slush fund for those two with no oversight or financial controls — put simply they almost certainly skim from it despite claiming every dollar goes to IU athletes.

If anyone wants to give to NIL please go to Hoosiers Connect for a collective with proper oversight and professional operations.

That is a strong allegation. 

I agree it is a strong allegation. Probably should have included some qualifiers, such as "in my opinion it's a slush fund" or "they could be skimming from it" rather than present those opinions as fact.

Nonetheless the way their collective is structured leaves the door wide open for shady behavior. And we just have to take their words for it that everything's kosher.

That's too sophisticated for my drinking fundamentals.

I'm a pretty big Dolson supporter/defender, but he likely got too close with these two.  First off, I hope IU is requiring an audit or review of their collective.  IU is fundamentally associated with them and should confirm their claims are true (all donations to athletes... doubtful) and of course IU should confirm they can deliver on promises to players.  Second, their behavior is net negative for IU athletics.  Some of their podcasts are good, and that's fine.  But there are so many bad X posts, Peegs posts, podcast comments, and instances of bad public behavior that IU shouldn't be associating with them.  I cannot believe Scott let them host an event at Assembly Hall.

The HH can do their thing, it's a free country.  But IU needs to keep them out of the athletic department and be cautious when they include them in our player NIL deals.

Agree 100% with all of this.

Their behavior on X is genuinely so awkward and cringe, and any time someone is remotely critical Eric blocks them. It's an awful look for the university for these guys to have any access to the program whatsoever.

I'll never forget Eric suggesting in an X post that Trey Galloway marry his (extremely underage) daughter. Just weirdo behavior and a complete lack of decorum for someone who was hosting events in Assembly Hall with players.

RTZ holds the keys to our immediate happiness at the palm of his hands lol

I’m wondering why there’s a need for an update. I thought we had our guy? That worries me. Especially since Sam Story just lost his mind on Trilly discord and basically said Dolson told him Steven’s absolutely will not be the coach.

Even more inappropriate considering that BtownBanners poster @OliviaPope40 clearly called first dibs on Galloway.

Pretty sure that Mgbako's faults are different from yours.

 Nevertheless, I hope that he gets help to become a better man than he is as a late teenager.

Geez y'all are making it sound like it was super serious. Now I am even more curious.

My wife is trying to cut back from either wasting part of $15 open bottles or drinking entire $15 bottles by herself before they deteriorate.

Any box wines that don't completely suck?

I don't think you will hear it straight from him but donors will pass it on posters and then we will know. Or you can just ask Sam 

Chris, is what Sam saying about being close to the decision maker that true? I believe you've said you know him. I really like Sam and what he has brought to IU boards, but that just seemed like a weird definitive post in the Trilly discord.
