MM was theoretically a five star recruit.  I think we can all agree that’s an over ranking.  We can debate whether he’s a high 3 star or a low 4 star.  He is also not exactly a poster child for high school coaching in NJ.   He has not been exposed to the quality of coaching he’d get throughout Indiana.  Big difference. 

Why do I bring that up here?  Because Sisley is the guy we’d need, not MM.  If he goes to Purdue and we are stuck with MM, nothing highlights more how much we have lost our way.  

MM is not a winning player (at least now).  He’s the type of guy who would be at Michigan or someplace like that and we would kick his ass with the Sisley type of guys who know how to make winning plays.  Now it’s upside down.  Hopefully MM gets better but let’s be honest with ourselves.  

Khristian Lander 2.0??

Good night to all.  I cannot watch any more.  Woodson is in over his head, imo. He’s getting outcoached regularly.  What a gig.  $4 million and job security, because he was a good player in the Dark Ages.  Hope those rich donors feel they are getting tgeir moneys worth.   

Hey now, us old timers have fond memories of those so-called Dark Ages....

I’m out of here…just too frustrating to discuss today’s fiasco anymore. I think I’ll take Tuesday’s game off as well unless we happen to win, and then I’ll watch it on tape. 
 

 

DVR has been my friend this year. IU wins? I watch. They lose? I erase it...

The tank is on in Milwaukee.  The Brewers trade Corbin Burnes to the Orioles.

Brewers got fleeced!!

Yanks were interested but the Brewers wanted the top 5 picks!

Go figure....

Watched Houston out tough Texas at Texas in ot last night.  I'd say Houston has everything they need to make a final four or better run.  Top three scorers are guards.  Their 'big' guys are like modern NBA dudes.  Just strong atheltic guys, didn't see one attempt of back to basket stuff.  I looked up their recruiting rankings over the last 4 years.  One 5 star.  Hit the transfer portal very nicely 2 and 3 years ago being rated 3rd and 4th transfer classes.  

Gee.... And who is the coach again??

Anyone we know??  🤷‍♂️

@Seeking6,  @Stlboiler23 and any other Carmel guys out there.

I see where Carmel beat Fishers tonight.  That has to be a big boost in what has been a tough season so far.  

They did beat our #15 Ev. Harrison by 14 a few weeks ago.

Still trying to figure that one out. Although the Warriors did manage to win 2 of 3 games that week-end....

I have a 6 year old granddaughter that will be performing at half time on Sunday. I'm thinking of subscribing to B1G Ten+ so maybe I can see her.....

I’m of the belief that IU is in a really good spot with this recruitment. 

Hmmm... Inside info or just gut???

Astros get Hader for 5yrs 95m. They are pretty stacked at the backend of the pen. Abreu. Presley. Hader. That’s a tough 7-8-9 inning rotation. 

Yanks are looking at Hector Neris, don't know much about him....

Would Bruce Pearl?  He's probably a top 15 coach with experience and has been consistently forming top 15 teams, and is top 10 in pay.  Regardless how you feel about him. Would he come to IU?

I would hope so...

But that's my biased opinion. 🤷‍♂️

Disagree.  He wouldn't be my first choice but if you were going to pick the most "ready" IU guy, he would have been it.

"But, but, but he is an a-hole and failed at the last big programs he was at."  We would all kill for his "failure" at UCLA right now.  He had a .663 winning percentage and went to 3 Sweet 16's in 5 years.  He has proven more as a Coach than Mike Woodson.  Come on.  People just don't like him because of the arrogance thing but I bet he would have done better than Woodson.

I don't think we had to hire an Indiana guy, but if we did, he was a better choice.  

Question: Was there a coach any more arrogant than The General, CRMK???

Can we all say NIT???

Maybe?

I've admitted to myself that we are not a god team this year and won't be no matter the coaching. That has helped to simply watch my team, enjoy those kids college experience on live cam and move on. watch every game.

There is a culture now (Last 40 yrs) that it's ok to just KINDA give effort. IT's ok to bang quiff and then just kind of perform on the ball form, as long as you can be a spot light for the ladies. Well rose Hulman Swimmers can do that.

Duke lost a legend, where are they ?

North Carolina lost a winning idiot, where are they?

They are reloaded and back at the top, while we aint sniffed the long johns of the ugliest girl who mixes the feed for the cows who had an incontinence problem in 40 yrs. You can say that the college/admin isn't a problem due to their left leaning nature, but it would be hard to prove.

40 yrs, We are no better than detroit manufacturing jobs. WHO the hell has this program handcuffed?  

Cal did get his 400th win, big news down here in southern Indiana....  😒

Hey Cub fans, what should Yankee fans expect of SP Marcus Stroman??

Good? Bad?? 🙄

I did not get to watch the game as I don't have a Peacock subscription. I did watch a Kent Sterling video and man was he brutal about Ius 6th year senior pg!! He does make a lot of good points, such as Peeuuu going to Nebraska and kicking the sh*t out them because the players have bought in to what CMP is selling.

Per MLBTR...

 

In other Yankees news, the team is reportedly considering bringing back Frankie Montas for another go in 2024, per Sherman and Jon Heyman of the New York Post. While his tenure with New York was marred by injury, Montas was an effective starting pitcher during his time in Oakland, pitching to a 3.50 ERA in 89 career starts for the Athletics. Montas could represent an intriguing buy-low candidate for the Yankees, especially since the team is already familiar with his stuff and medical status.

In that article, Montas admitted he was hurt when the trade was made, which the Yankees were not aware of. Plus the interest was half-hearted, just saying....

Montas couldn't cut it with the Yanks. If the Yankees thought he could help, they would have considered making an offer to him as they, like a lot of other teams not named Dodgers, need pitching, just my 2 pennies....

Who would have thought Penix would be leading a team in the Championship game?

Not me....

Good thing Michigan is representing the B1G, otherwise it would be a dismal bowl season...
