Demo Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 Watched a Pacers game he called back in the day at Sacramento when they had Webber and that bunch. The Pacers might as well have been the Washington Generals. Spent 4 solid quarters gushing about the beauty of Kings basketball. Just rapturous. Oh yeah, Pacers won by double digits. while I’m confident that Bill is a good dude, his grasp on reality is....tenuous. IUsafety and woodenshoemanHoosierfan 2 Quote

ElectricBoogaloo Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 PAC-12 is awful this year and Bill Walton may be the only reason to watch any of those games. It would be more annoying if the PAC-12 had bunch of solid teams playing at a high level. MemphisHoosier and Deserthoozier 1 1 Quote

HoosierAloha Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 I’ve been pushed/tapped harder in a Tokyo subway than what Chambers did to that kid. I think they’re going a little over the top with a suspension. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners yogisballin and IUsafety 2 Quote

Imagine...that’s the same punishment they gave JoePa! This will be Chambers last season. Unfortunate - I thought he kinda fit there ok. Quote

Magnanimous Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 1 hour ago, jk34 said: They will not do any better than Chambers, that's for sure. That’s not true. Chambers did get screwed by Carr leaving early and then bouncing to Italy, because they probably would have competed for the conference rather than being in the basement, but he’s not a great coach even by Penn State standards. Chambers was finally able to tap into some of the talent out of Philly, but it hasn’t amounted to even one NCAAT berth. Penn state is hurt by their lack of basketball culture and geographical diasadvantages being so far from the state’s major cities, but they could be better if they wanted. The school has a ton of money, at least now after the Sandusky fallout has passed, and a commitment to a lot of its sports. They essentially bought themselves into relevancy with both hockey and wrestling, and if they actually cared they could do the same for basketball. In some ways PSU and IU are polar opposites from the basketball/football standpoint, but unlike football you only need a few players to be competitive in basketball. There’s no reason why Penn State couldn’t open up the check book and get someone decent after this year’s tournament. Even a Bruce Weber -level coach would help them. Quote

Seems to me for some things depending on what happened one game suspensions have become the standard. Edited January 5, 2019 by OliviaPope40 Quote

Hoosier Guy Posted January 5, 2019 Posted January 5, 2019 Michigan State-Ohio State is living up to the hype. Hotly contested game with a little over four minutes left in the first half. Michigan State up 29-26 Quote
