Who is Middle School Bob??

Recommended Posts

I hope MSB Priller becomes a fan favorite----someone who went to the game said it is happening already when he loads to shoot!

 

Remember his high school videos when he got the ball deep--- the student section put their hands up in anticipation of the three pointer!

 

Love it!

The T shirt idea is cool too!

 

I could see a BTown Banner meet-up in MSB--MST--or MSP apparel! (Middle School Bob--Middle School Tim--or Middle School Priller)!

 

Too fun---and I would wear it not to make fun of Priller---but to celebrate his shooting greatness!  :biggrin:

Did anyone look closely at Priller's box score? Decent stats in 8 minutes of play.

The positives: a 3 pointer---2 rebounds (1 offensive)--1 assist--1 block---1 steal.

The negative: 2 fouls.

Not bad for first game.


I love that you see the positive side of things because my automatic thought is, we were short handed, 7 scholarship players and 2 walk ons and he only got 8 minutes in an exhibition.

He is admittedly a fan favorite. I'll be pulling for him but I'll keep my hopes reasonable.

Good point --WayneFleek---and this is not directed at you or anyone in particular--Priller's taken a lot of crap from IU fans on this and other boards.  He was not brought in to be a starter this year. He and Hoosier Nation know he is a role player/situational player at IU like we have always had--- with the promise that with hard work he could earn more minutes.  My point being we need to recognize when a role player has a good game too.  I am happy for him to be getting some positive feedback after all the negativity and hate directed at him earlier.

 

Not a bad stat line in limited minutes. Shows he  was active out there!

He's got that unorthodox Larry Bird look/shot going.......maybe he is Little Bird!

 

Or  ---just maybe---MSB stands for Middle School BIRD!

 

I think he's going to be fun to watch---yet another Hoosier who won a high school all star game 3 point shooting competition! His was in Texas with a lot of other D1 players.

This is a pretty decent history of the soon to be legendary Middle School Bob aka MSB. Anything we should add to the history?

I REALLY hope we see MSB get some garbage minutes.
