Trilly mailbag with, among other things, some thoughts on ISU’s Josh Schertz. Comfortable that he’s right on one thing: unless something pretty damned miraculous happens Travis Ford is dead meat at St Louis. Makes north of 2 million, has terrific facilities and administration support and has turned it into nothing. Underachieved horrendously last year. Has 1 win, against Dartmouth, and nobody’s showing for home games. Got beat down this weekend by SIU. Will be a really good job for someone. The best resources in the A-10 outside of maybe Dayton. 

I’ll firehose vomit if Schertz goes to Depaul. Borderline insulting.

Over/under on Francon's second technical ejection today?

99% likely

Would kinda feel like the same dynamic as Cignetti going to IU football, eh?

There’s no way. And what Ray Meyer did was miraculous. Does not get enough as one of the greatest coaching jobs ever.

Somewhat, but not really. Schertz is younger, ascending rapidly and Depaul feels like an infinitely more abysmal situation than IUFB which is a last (?) stop, lotto ticket type job for Cig. If it doesn’t work out for him, he rides off into the sunset with generational wealth. If he succeeds here, he gets all of that plus the admiration of a gigantic fanbase and maybe even a shot at a “big” job if he wants it. Schertz would very likely derail his rapid ascension at a program going nowhere fast.

Except for those times lol. But this beat down is something we could never accomplish. We don't have this gear imo

Fran looks woozy

Big Ten teams might as well do what NBA teams did during Shaqs prime. Grab 2-3 giants just to throw bodies at Edey.

That is the definition of a left handed compliment. Can’t shoot, but smart enough to know it.

You got to love it though!

I liked how ESPN's headline when the rankings updated yesterday was "Arizona takes Purdue's top spot," as if it was somehow surprising or that spot exclusively belonged to Purdue.

Mods feel free to move this in the right place. I couldn’t find a ticket thread. 
 

Im looking for 3 tickets with parking pass for the IU Kansas game. Time for the kiddos to see a big game atmosphere
