I don't know who 'everyone' is.

Me neither, but he's taking a visit with them, then us, is what has been mentioned.

How we feeling today, ladies and gents?

Feeling very good. Not because we know anything other than, apparently, Olsen and the Burton visit, but every day more really useful kids drop into the portal. The more options the better and I’m 100% confident that some really good kids are gonna find the combination of IU’s resources and immediate playing time in the best conference in the country compelling and bite on it.

Is Darren Harris any relation to Del Harris? Del was originally from Smithville if I remember correctly. That was a little more of @Class of '66 Old Fart era. I’m just messing around. Hopefully we hear some good news this weekend.

Del was from Plainfield, my old town, unless he started in Smithville.  He went to HS though as a fighting Quaker lol

Maybe he started his coaching career at Smithville.

Great. Been sitting by the pool at a resort in Key West while my wife is at a work function. lol.
 

How are you feeling? 

As far as basketball goes I’m intrigued by the Cuse PF. I’m optimistic we will have a tournament team and potentially work our way into being ranked depending on which combo of players we get to fill the roster.

I don't think we will spend on more than 2 high priced guys. Moneyball the other 5 spots. 3 of them maybe with medium spend types who have multiple years of eligibility ideally. Then maybe round out with 2 cheap vets from low major ranks.

We got an NBA GM.  They will spend for 3 guys and money ball the rest based on traits because that's pretty much every NBA team.  Something along the lines of 3 million for a couple guys, and 2 million guy, and the rest will be money ball.

Any word on who the lead assistant is on this? 

This would be a great way to start off. Hope we get 3 or 4 visits this weekend. 

Drew Adams, so I'm not optimistic.

I’m in S Florida gorging myself on grouper, gulf shrimp, and good tequila. Mr. Lettuce phoned to say we have a national title contender next year. Feelin’ good!

Del Harris is the only guy to both coach at Huntington College and the Los Angeles Lakers…that I know of.

Listing to the hysterics podcast last weekend interview Rabby, he said Adams was who got IU in on Wilkerson last cycle. Obviously DeVries closed the deal. A lot of hate for Adams because of the roster construction last year but not sure how much fault he should have. I’m willing to trust DeVries on who is staff picks are.

Maybe... one could say the 2M guy qualifies as a "money ball" situation if he's not getting one of the "max" slots

IMO, for IU, at the end of the day it comes down to evaluation more so than money

I’ve heard his on the court coaching and scouting is not quite up to the level of the other coaches. But I have not been to a practice to see anything myself.

Solid day,  2 yr old HVAC went out,checked the breaker, no go, called the installing company, said they had no other advice and set up a $175 diagnostic visit. Opened the air handler compartment  and found a blown $2 fuse and cancelled the appointment and saved a nice wad of cash.  Accepting recommendations for what $173 player I can buy with my newly found NIL money.
