So deep, and so easy to root for. Yogi, Max, RoJo, OG, TB, Troy, Juwan, Nick, and Collin. Such a strong, great shooting nine. A shame that RoJo got hurt and that they drew UNC in the Sweet 16.

BGVille Hoosierfan Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Word is that Haarms will be BYU bound. Kentucky fans quickly anointed him as the best big man in the history of the game...now that he is BYU-bound, he was “only a bench player at Purdue and is not that big a deal.” Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners WayneFleekHoosier, Stuhoo, HoosierRobbie and 3 others 5 1 Quote

FWIW, the Kentucky board is a fun read tonight. They currently hate Matt Haarms more than he was ever hated in Assembly Hall. BGVille Hoosierfan 1 Quote

He’s likely a pro in Europe, not the NBA anyway, and on BYU he’d be a featured player. CS2 and woodenshoemanHoosierfan 2 Quote

Nope, but he's 23 and quite possibly at a different stage in his life. A team full of 18 year old one and dones, or "think they're one and dones" has a very different culture than he likely prefers. Because of their missions, BYU has a much older student population than most schools. And, they were top 25 last season. And, they very much needed a big. Seems like a really smart decision by Haarms if you ask me. jk34, woodenshoemanHoosierfan and BGVille Hoosierfan 3 Quote

Champions Classic has Duke, Michigan State, Kansas, Kentucky. I think something along Indiana, North Carolina, Arizona and Villanova. That’d be more fun. But I’d also like to see another series that interesting. Against an Arizona, Oregon, Texas, Florida or something. But that’s what sucks about the 20 game conference schedule and having the CC, B1G/ACC/Gavitt games. Not much room to fill games against teams from the Pac12, Big 12 or SEC. I was surprised with the Arky game. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app I chose Butler to maintain the Border War concept which is the theme...and Butler draws a lot better in Indy than does Purdue. Quote

He would be buried at KY and i don't think Cal has the temperament for the "look at me" style of Harms. Quote

Brass Cannon Posted April 23, 2020 Posted April 23, 2020 Apparently rumors are that an Indiana player is going to transfer. If so gotta think it’s because there’s a grad transfer Archie wants to bring in. BGVille Hoosierfan 1 Quote
