Does anyone know if Josh Dix plays football? With the loss of Morris for the season to a knee injury, coach Cigs might be able to use Dix in the slot or tight end position.

Believe he will.  He recruited him when he was at Drake.

Didn't Payne visit IU last year?

Why were they fine the year before then. Rice went from a PER of 17 under the WSU coach to 11 under Woodson.  Do you think he just got dumber in one year?  Ballo’s PER dropped to his second lowest of his career and his second lowest shooting percentage over his career. They made the choice of chasing a bag instead of getting paid more and finding a good fit for their skill sets.  The other two coaches were able to maximize them.  

Agreed, bad fit was part of it. Bad coaching too.

Can't underestimate being in the PAC12 as well. The B1G was also deeper/better as a conference as a whole.

Official: "Coach, we need another."

D-Rock: "Um, that's all I got. ... I mean -- um, my team's on the floor!"

Obviously, you’re holding out hope on Goode.

That’s not how it works. You have to pay your own guys too. You have to pay to retain good players. Assuming IUs budget is one of the tops in the country Lville doesn’t have any more money to offer someone like Conwell. They just choose to pay him more. 

Yeah, but don't they already know (roughly or specifically) how much money has been allocated to players already on the team?

Yes.  IU backed off after Ballo signed.

Absolutely. He would seem to be a great fit in DDV's system. 

Let's go.

This fanbase does nothing but wishcast and have positive vibes till the dam breaks after years of mediocrity.  
 

If you want to be a big boy program you have to big boy program things.  We consistently don’t. We apparently will only spend the money for top tier talent when the coach has already revealed themselves to be incompetent. 

We lose one recruiting/budget battle and this dude just crashes out, lol

I'm genuinely asking a question? Braylon Mullins had the chance to be a Hoosier. He chose UConn. He's never won anything at any level to the point where I've said to myself, "We have to have that kid". Would have been fine with Mullins committing here, but I didn't lose any sleep when he chose UConn, just like I didn't lose any sleep when McRoberts chose Duke. Forgot about him the next day. 

I’ll go along with you ; he spurned IU for the trendy, shiny UConn and their a$$hole coach  so byes bye and enjoy your time there.

This tribalistic rage is weird by some of you.

If we really have a chance at Pharrell Payne that would be amazing. I'd take him over Bidunga any day.

I don't know enough about Bidunga to fully agree, but having to try to play against Payne in the paint seems like it would make for a long day and a sore tomorrow. That dude plays hard and is physical.
