Question: Who is this lady. Everytime I watch an IU game she is situated as an usher behind the television broadcast table wearing her IU basketball beads. My wife and I always say, "We need to find out who she is". She is at every home game. Anyone know? Just curious. Don't want to call anyone out or anything.Presentation1.thumb.jpg.01776073060ddde8f7507f07081362b1.jpg

You know I have always wondered that as well.

Matta better be able to pull a rabbit out of his hat this next season.

More bad news for Ohio State basketball 

Forget good news. At this point, even no news would be an improvement for the Ohio State basketball team.

The Buckeyes’ travails over the past few months have been well-documented, but here’s a refresher. There was a season-ending loss to Rutgers. Improved big man Trevor Thompson put his name in the NBA draft, even though he has no chance of being selected, and hired an agent. Guard Kam Williams also entered his name but has not hired an agent. Class of 2018 4-star commit Darius Bazley decommitted, saying, “They didn’t even make the NIT.” (Yikes.) Point guard JaQuan Lyle allegedly punched a police car and is no longer with the team.

Ohio State could use help more than ever, but it keeps getting turned away. On Monday, ESPN’s John Goodman reported that grad transfer James Daniels chose Tennessee over Ohio State.

Daniel would have been a huge addition. The former Howard player missed all but two games last season, but in 2015-16 he led the nation in scoring.

He also would have been a great fit, which makes this tough to stomach for the Buckeyes. Ohio State might be in real trouble now with just two guards on the roster, one of whom will be a true freshman. That number could rise to three if Williams pulls his name out of the draft list by Wednesday, but it’s still nowhere close to the depth Ohio State wants.

Andy Staples of Sports Illustrated doing a number on Kevin Stallings and Pitt in their handling of the Cameron Johnson transfer.

"A jerk/coward scenario is one in which a person pursues a self-serving course of action that is so universally unpopular that only two possible explanations exist: Either the person chose that course of action because that person is a jerk, or that person chose that course of action because that person is a sniveling coward.  Pittsburgh basketball coach Kevin Stallings apparently never received any advice about the second scenario, because he faces one now."

I'd be willing to wager a lot of money on IU finishing better than both Ohio State and Illinois.
