Apparently last night that’s how it worked, because apparently Lamar W was out having a good time with the IU Football team.

Sure, Bloomington is ok but it's a **** hole otherwise Bad post. Indiana is just fine and Bloomington is very nice. And my point is Bloomington is reasonably accessible, just an easy 50 min drive from a great midsize airport that is close to most of the US population. Nothing like getting to Lincoln, NE.

No, it's an accurate post. Don't feel bad though, Indiana isn't the only boring state in the Midwest. It's simply on the list of states that nobody is beating down the door to move to, athletes especially Scotty R 1 Quote

Bc Cal Berkeley and Stanford are killing it in recruiting. You’re wrong on this one. Take the L and move on. And I’m saying that as someone from that area and chose to leave that cesspool and not go back. Indiana is a fantastic place to live. J34 1 Quote

It's simply on the list of states that nobody is beating down the door to move to, athletes especially This isn’t NBA free agency. Plenty of very good bball players go to Lawrence, East Lansing, Storrs, etc. Football players (and bball players) go Tuscaloosa, Athens, Auburn, Gainesville, Penn State, this list is endless. Players are fine with college towns, and Bloomington is a nice one. As a bonus IUBB players are treated like royalty here. Again, my main point is accessibility.

You said that the state is not an attractive place to live for pro athletes. I pointed out that there are some who find it a good place to live. Was not trying to compare to anywhere else. mamasa 1 Quote

Again, I lived in Indiana long enough to know that "Indiana is a fantastic place to live" is nonsense lol Indiana8585 and 8bucks 2 Quote
