I have FINALLY finished ranking all 76 teams of the power conferences. Any guesses where Indiana ranks? Any guesses on the #1 team? The Top 5? The worst program of the last decade?

IU 30th, Dookie #1, BC last

That wasn't Purdue only final four, just the last of two

I guess I was. My top 5 were in the top 6 and I was 1 off on the worst team, and 5 off on IU.

Timme declares. Doesn't say anything about an agent. 

Seems most mock drafts have him going in the second round -- if at all.

IU isn't on that list. A ton of SEC schools are, though.

What a shock to see North Carolina kids even get paid for fake classes.

In the 2 1/2 weeks since Dennis Gates got the Mizzou job, he has:1) signed the #1 JUCO in the country, 2) gotten the de-committed highest rated signee at the school since Michael Porter to re-commit, and,  3) hired Charlton Young, one of the flat out best recruiters in the country, away from FSU and got the notoriously cheap Mizzou AD to fork over 600k a year to do it. Yeah, that hire’s probably gonna work out.

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has an interesting story about Sean and Archie Miller both getting back into coaching this cycle.

I have no ill will toward Arch, but, “I haven’t thought one second about my time there. It came and it’s gone,” is not what I’d want to here as an AD looking for a coach to have learned from his experiences. It’s not what I’d want to hear if I’d played for him. And it’s not what I’d want him to say if he wanted my child to play for him.

Not sure where this belongs, but apparently Juwan Howard's name is being thrown around for the Lakers job when they axe Vogel. 

Kind of hope it happens. Juwan is recruiting great right now and would love for him to jump.

He’s been fairly positive regarding IU over the last year but there’s always been a sour grapes vibe. And his brother blames IU for him not succeeding.

With his son joining his team at Michigan this fall, I'm pretty skeptical but I do think that once his kid is gone, Juwan will make a move back to the pro game.

This is the general consensus among informed UM fans, too
