Blackmon Transferring?

Recommended Posts

Must not have explained that well enough?

Idk what I said that was wrong but there's definitely been a ton of vitriol thrown JB's way

If you truly don't know you will probably have a short stay here. I am guessing you know the issue and might want to stop.

I point out that JBJ was my favorite player as the season opened. Is he perfect? No. He needs to work harder on defense, both technique and dedication. I hope he returns with that problem fixed.

I didn't say it was happening, just what I heard if I thought it was set it stone I wouldn't have questioned it or even came to this board to begin with, with the info. His family is all over this town and they ALL have stories. Just like Zach Randolph everyone here is his cousin lol. Sorry, but it did come from his aunt and I actually hope it isn't true nor does it even make sense. Thanks for the welcome to posting. I'm sure if mods can look up by name you will see I've been a member plenty other times just don't post enough to remember my info. I just don't care to post often cause I have a busy schedule and a son who most of my attention goes to. Some people take being an avid poster way to serious. It just means you get on a website more than someone else not that your a bigger fan lol. Sorry for the hostile post I guess we will wait and see if it is true and like I have stated plenty I hope it isn't. No I don't have a ESPN source either just his aunt that I work with who could or couldn't be lying. If anyone cares to share info about if they have heard different or the same that'd be appreciated and the main point of this post.

thanks for the info. We will see what happens but great discussion added to the board

I bet it's true. Most of the media and just about every IU fan on the message boards have said we are better without him . Dackich on national TV ( an IU guy ) said it numerous times. Everyone knows about the Blackmon can't guard a chair. I bet he and his family are pissed. I would be. I like JBJ a lot, and I believe if healthy, James will be a stud when it's all said and done. Probably gets some kind of medical hardship and plays just about anywhere he choses.

Pretty sure they did away with medical hardship waivers in the transfer context didn't they?

Hey Mad, how insignificant do you suppose this board is now? New threads are shot out to Twitter and Facebook. We have many thousand followers. I know you don't think what we post is not seen, but you would be surprised to hear we have in the past been asked not to post stuff until its announced. More visible to the university than you think.
