All good. It was weird that he posted something not related to IU unless there's something very unexpected happening here. 

When I saw that I was afraid it was Reneau

I thought this was a thread about Sisley

I'm not that familiar with the Reds. Are McLain, TJ, and Noelvi your 2,3, and 4 hitters?

Freidl leadoff hitter

McClain 3

Marte probably 6 or 7

Starters in the Reds vs Phillies game 

Lodolo 0.75 ERA

Turnbull 1.23

Probably.not often seeing two pitchers going against each other with these ERA

I hear ya, but can't feel overly sorry for Cubs Nation.

• Matt McLain
• TJ Friedl
• Noelvi Marte

That's one-third of the Reds regular 9 that have not seen a minute yet this year.  Throw in that Encarnacion, Cendelario, Fraley, and India have all missed multiple games at some point, and the Reds lineup has been patchwork all year.

De La Cruz, Spencer Steer, Will Benson, and the two Catchers are the only projected regular contributors that have stayed healthy.

 

 

Sounds like there has been a sickness going around the ball club.

I was one of those people sending emails and I took no offense to being called out. We deserved to be called out

So that means the Colts will do none of the above, right? Lol.

Pretty much, probably will pick the DT from Texas

I'd love to know the answer to this as well. Is it because game was on NBATV and not ESPN, TNT,etc....?

I get tired enough of chasing MLB and their blackout plans. Not doing it for the NBA.

At least in Indy area the game was on Bally Sports but was blacked out on NBATV

Nikita Konstantynovskyi who's a 6'10 F/C from Monmouth is a name that the staff has been in contact with and there might be some interest. 

Thank goodness we don't put the names on the back of the jersey's

Great win for the Pacers. Made a great run when the Bucks cut it to 92-88, went on a 23-4 run to put the game away 

It is getting hard to watch the NBA because the players whine after every call. They all want every call reviewed

Carlisle is killing us with his lineups. Milwaukee on a run and you don't have Siakim in

NBA officiating is a joke.

Pacers game blacked out in Indy when the game is in Milwaukee? What the heck is that about? 

It is on Bally Sports Indiana 

My wish list for the Colts for this draft.

1) Be able to trade up to get one of the top 3 WR

Or

Draft TE Bowers or Mitchell CB from Toledo or Arnold CB from Alabama.

If none of those are available trade down and get Thomas WR from LSU

We are going to need to shoot in the mid 30s as a team from 3.  And it would be nice to have 2 players closers to 40% on mid to higher volume.  Is is absolutely required, no, but it has been a glaring hole for IU for quite some time.  I know people don't think its that important, but to me its the biggest missing piece we have had for years.

I see where people saying guys like Rice or Carlyle are had shooters. I don't totally agree with that because there is more to shooting than just shooting 3's. I just look at Carlyle who went 32/100 from 3 which makes him a bad shooter. If he would have just hit 5 more to go 37/100 that would have made him an above average shooter. So hitting 5 more shots over a 31 game schedule is the difference from a great shooter to a bad shooter.

I don't expect to totally rebuild every year.  But unless you're looking at a sure-fire hit, if you're going to go with a kid's upside, why not focus on freshmen that enter the portal? True, they'd only have 3 years of eligibility vs 4, but you'd also have at least some actual knowledge of how their game translates at the college level. 

Not every kid that enters the portal is going to be a one-year mercenary, and we just landed a backcourt of two sophomores that could potentially play multiple years. 

I still want most of the team built through HS recruits. I think it is best to use the portal to shore up missing pieces and not build your team with portal players. I think it is easy to get portal players to come here when they know it is for a starting position. I think it is just easier to build your bench with young HS players who will be happy to come off the bench.

Driving, no, but the same plane that went to Laporte from Bloomington this morning at 6 am, landed at Indy regional (12 northeast of the city) about an hour ago...short drive to Greenfield...

Be looking for a flight plan from Indy regional to Huntingburg airport this afternoon 

 

That is probably the Mount Comfort Airport which is probably 6 miles from Greenfield

3.5hr drive Bloomington to LaPorte-- 215 miles

2hr 55 min drive LaPorte to Greenfield- 170 miles 

3hr 5min drive Greenfield to Heritage Hills- 165 miles 

 

It's not even doable in a day. 

Last week in the morning I drove from Indy to Kokomo and back to Indy. In the after noon I went from Indy to Salem then back to Indy. Actually was in Brownstown twice last week.

Dont you have to recruit the state harder to lock it down?

It seems like to me they are recruiting the state pretty hard today with visits to see Harrelson, Mullins and Sisley.

I still think we need to find a true point guard. Rice may be an OK part time at the 1, Cupps isn't even close to being a true PG (yet), and I'd rather have Gallo @ 2-3.

We've got the opening, just need to fill it. Seems like most of the attention in the portal is 2-5 positions. (we needed those as well, but I'd like a knock down shooter point guard)

Rice is a true point guard
