6+ million dollar team on the way

As much as I would like for a B1G team to bring some clout to the conference and as good as Purdue is this season, UConn is the better team and wins this one.

I don't think there is much more that can be said on this topic that hasn't been on repeat since January. While I would be willing to bet 100 to anyones dollar that this current staff absolutely will not be bringing us a natty, it seems the path is set and is what it is so we all might as well find our seat on the bus. That said I have all intent of retiring myself from participating in this thread for the remainder of the post season. I would like to remind us all to do our best to keep the other threads on topic and direct all disgruntled discussion of the staff and thoughts on the negative trajectory of the basketball program to this thread so folks can enjoy other topics.

I don't think the school matters to these kids nearly what we would like for it to if at all. Its instant legal NIL now which is being heavily exploited. Combine that with the coach who they think can pull the right strings and they have their destination. As long as Cal is a head coach he will be known as a stepping stone to the NBA. Sadly, I think top ranked hs kids get caught up in instant riches and worry less about a coaches developmental ability. Not that they always haven't I guess but it seems to be more prevalent now that throwing bags is legal.

My guess is Arkansas will soon have the 2nd best recruiting class. I feel like those recruits committed to the John Calipari path to the NBA and not Kentucky Blue.

Sweet 16 baby!!!

Haha! Your last sentence made me lol.

I have zero doubts about Dustys ability to build a competitive program. Obviously Michigan and Louisville were willing to take that gamble. Michigan will be a problem for us and I expect Dusty to get kids like Mullins and Sisley.

Smh… and we are stuck with… bah… nvm. Not at all surprised.

May to Louisville gaining steam on social platforms

This is IU basketball! Im proud of these ladies!

Might be an upgrade from one that doesn't make it at all?

Colorado takes down Florida. For anyone that might have forgotten, IU didn't even make the dance. Nadda. Thats below “mediocre”. In each game there will be a loser and a winner. Making fun of the loser when you’re not even in the same race is silly.
