Solid event! We got the whole team to sign the poster except for Leal, Sparks, and Newton. I wasn't the biggest Hysteric fan years ago but I enjoy their IU interviews and they were nice when we met them. As personalities go, Anthony Walker, Malik, Kaleb, and CJ are probably the best ones on the team. Since they couldn't scrimmage they did some fun things like re-creating the Wat-Shot. They chose a few fans but finally Watford himself was able to knock it in. Calbert got the biggest ovation of the night. Overall a really good event for us diehards. I'd like to go every year just to have them sign the team poster. That alone is worth the price of admission. Also, it's never a bad day when you get to go to Nick's and Assembly Hall.

So what did dweeb 1 and dweeb 2 do this time? Seeing lots of tweets about them related to last night, none of them good.

IMO it's overblown. Peegs version of our Chris basically said both the men and women's program are embarrassed it got put out on Twitter as a big deal. The lady who runs the ticket project got mad because they did not recognize the women's team during the short event. They were there for the autograph/pictures but were sitting courtside. I guess some people got in Eric and Ward's faces after the event. I didn't see it as I went to the autograph lines. Kind of embarrassing. Should they have mentioned them? Probably. It's important to keep in mind the NCAA completely made them change the event. But getting in their faces after the event and going on a Twitter rant isn't the way to make that point. I know the women had their team camp today and it looks like it had a good turnout.

Was it something like “give it up for your men’s basketball team!” with nothing equivalent for the women’s team? The ticket lady was big mad last night/today so was curious what it was about.

Pretty much. They introduced the men's team and the assistants/staff that were there. Then did some fan contests. I felt going in that it was more for the men's team but that was just me. We were super pumped to get Holmes autograph.

People hating just to hate. The HHs have said from the beginning their concentration is on men’s basketball and they branch out from there. If you listen to the podcast they pump up IUWBB like crazy and have mad respect. People have gears to grind against the HHs, and the is the most recent version of that. I’ve personally grown to enjoy them after they’ve learned from their early recruiting shenanigans.
