Strong sycamore crowd. Good game so far

Kid walked past me in a Purdue hoodie at Hulman the other night. I think the look on my face gave him a pretty good idea how I felt about that.

I no longer live in Indiana so haven’t seen much of Ind St until tonight.  They are a fun team to watch.  Great ball movement.   Not just fun but winning as well. Never thought as IU fan I would be somewhat jealous of Ind St ☹️

I get a kick out of watching Robbie Avila play basketball. Not the best athlete, but he’s very smart and fundamentally sound.

Technically, the 2025 NIT venue is still up for grabs, so in theory, we could just... I dunno, host it again.

Century Club!

It’s been a heck of a year for the Trees.  I’m sure people got tired of us talking about them last year and at the beginning of the year especially with how IU played   Let’s win this NIT championship.    Hopefully IU can give us joy next year but it was our Sycamores that gave us a ride this year.    Enjoy it I know I am because it might be a while until we see it again

Would have been interesting to see Avila play v Burns from NC State

Had to because Utah was firing too! Fun game.

Schertz will get snatched up by someone after this NIT run!

[KNOBYDOX 109]

Up here in Portland Ind at a beagle club with no Wi-Fi or cable. I didn’t get to watch the trees play but glad they won. Hopefully I will see our team excel again in my lifetime.

I know a LOT of people who got to watch this run, who only root for ISU, and who have eaten truckloads of crap while sticking with that program for 40+ years since Bird. Happy for all of them more than anything.

My first half assessment:

Boogie, Bailey, Edgecomb, Harper, and Queen.

Jackson looks like crap but the handle and speed undeniable.

Seton Hall up 13 with 7 min to go in first half 

[cleeter 2,128]

Bought my wife and I Morgan Wallen tickets in October for the show Thursday night in Indy. If I ditched that to go watch the trees, how do we thing that goes over?

 

*also, my aunt and cousin are going and have seats by us. So she wouldn’t be alone. And loves my aunt, so maybe she wouldn’t realize I was gone?

This was a text from my almost 12 year old child. With almost 10 minutes left......

 

I've been an iu fan my whole life but love my damn Trees! Proud alumnus moment here. And yes. I'm looking for tickets for Thursday night!

Of course IU has done it many times in basketball and other sports.

Josh Schertz and his Sycamores in 3 years took all that Wabash Valley community enthusiasm to Hinkle Fieldhouse from hardly anything 3 years ago.

sidenote:  Indiana State has an excellent baseball program as well.  

[Ryno6284 2,643]

They said Thursday was sold out, wonder what a ticket will fetch? Everyone who has a ticket probably wants to go unless Utah or Georgia fans bought both night tickets!

Harper is going to be a bigger pain in our @ss than his brother was!
