  1. It's so nice to hear from the Georgia Peach. I almost forgot about him.
  2. I want a coach in his mid fifties, has crazy ideas, his best friend is an alcoholic and his girlfriend is a college drop-out. Norman Dale, where are you?!! πŸ˜€
  3. IU went that route. His name was Kelvin. It didn't work out so well if I remember correctly. And I don't blame Sampson - I never much liked him, but he was tossed aside for the stupidest of reasons.
  4. I remember when USI won the D2 Championship. I had it on the radio. It was awesome. But Pearl was a handful. He and IU would have been oil and water. Pearl being the oil.
  5. Seriously, who dares talk basketball when there are people trying to get the coach fired! Golly folks, have some respect!!
  6. I'm talking about the last 10-20 years. Anyway, Coach Woodson swung for the fences and struck out. Badly. He forgot, or didn't realize, that IU isn't the place top recruits want to be anymore. IU needs a Ty Cobb. Hit a single, and if the fates are kind, turn it into a double. Then sit down on the bag and sharpen your spikes before stealing third. That's how you win. Small ball ain't glamorous, but it wins.
  7. IU is becoming a portal program and I don't like it. Woodson didn't create the mess IU is in, but he's not the answer.
  8. I remember those dark days. Drafting Cheryl Miller's brother instead of Steve Alford was a Godsend. I loved those Pacer teams.
  9. What IU needs is to hire a 30 year old vunderkind, the kind of coach that comes along only once in a hundred years. My only regret is that I'm getting old, I won't live till 2070. Also, crabgrass. Dandelions I can live with. They make good wine.
  10. Pea Sprouts would be nice... πŸ€”
  11. "It’s always feels nice to beat Maryland too." It's also always nice to beat them two... times in the same season! LOL. Maybe in the BBT we can make it three!! I really don't like Maryland.
  12. Good road win for the Hoosiers. Hard fought victory.
  13. Yes and yes. But what do I know, I'm not European.
  14. IU is a fun team to watch when they can make a few outside shots and hit their free throws.
  15. Oompa-Loompa says.. "Go Hoosiers!"
  16. I have to admit, I was really impressed with Purdue'a team. They play smart, disciplined basketball, can knock down shots and have a 7'4" center. Purdue has a team that could definitely make it to the 2nd round of the tournament this year.
  17. Yeah. Sorry. I didn't realize how far IU has fallen. It's unbelievable.
  18. I get what you're saying... it took me a second. I HOPE the Hoosiers get into the NIT, but we may not deserve it. Pathetic. 😐
  19. I'm looking forward to the NIT and playing a 1st round game against Kentucky.
  20. "You??! You'll be out before we get the check!" Just like Purdue in the postseason...
  21. You gained 2 hours of your life better spent. When the time comes and rest of us are on our deathbeds, cursing those two hours we all lost watching IU lose to Penn State, you will die in peace and contentment, knowing you spent your time on Earth well.
