Trolling along

If I was a football quarterback, at another school, I wouldn't stand in the huddle for IU basketball either. Jamarcus Ellis on the other hand...

Yes. The program under Sampson was a mess academically and multiple players had substance abuse issues. It was not a good place for a number of academically oriented players. The academics were in very bad shape while at the same time a number of very good players were headed to IU or in the pipleline, the team was winning on the court but losing the culture of IU

So they mauled them?

He was 24-4 when Sampsongate hit. No, he didn’t recruit student athletes, the team was failing classes etc. But those dudes could play and let’s not forget EJ. Excellent coach, but no concern for academics at all. The “rules” though were silly, they got him on phone call violations that were legal the next season. He got away from the NCAA ad they came down on Okla, it was a vendetta, and then IU self-reported

Luckily I was into IU basketball in 87, while at IU 😁

Richmond up 11 with a little over 3 to go — and espn kept having uk’s percentage of winning over 50 percent until recently

They generally have a good b-ball program. Now whether uk should be ranked 10 is another question

UK tied with Richmond in second half

He’ll never get much love from IU fans, IU was just a stopover for him on his way to the NBA, but I can’t ever fault a guy who chases his dream and succeeds. He’s a solid pro who has stuck in the League.

Very sorry to hear this but glad she otherwise is feeling ok. Now that we understand how to treat this Virus she will be in good hands. Our firm administrator had it and went through all the symptoms, but is now ok. Hoping your daughter recovers quickly

Keeping you and your wife in our thoughts.

From an officiating perspective I like how Izzo holds the officials accountable ... oh wait 😁

Lander’s been talking about running PnR with TJD from day 1, only a matter of time ....

Well Fouls reminded me I need to get around to buying a new Christmas tree. We can’t have real trees because my wife is allergic to them (dang it). Have had the same huge Xmas tree for the last ten years, but it has lost too many (fake) pine needles. Now I will have the misfortune of thinking of Fouls every Christmas Day while looking at a new fake tree....

Must not have had enough coffee lol. Watched The Departed a couple days ago ....

Yep meant to include him of course, probably his best acting ever

Philadelphia — Matt Damon, Denzel Washington, Jason Robards, Antonio Banderas, watched it with my daughter last night, great movie

Fixed it for you 😁

Can’t believe you found this story on @5fouls

Steph is one of the game's best all-time shooters and lead guards. That said, with Klay's really unfortunate injury, I think GS's time has come and gone. Steph said some of the same things last year before his season-ending injury. The team doesn't have the pieces any more, and Draymond was exposed for what he really is -- a strong complimentary player who needs guys like Klay et al. on the perimeter in order to play to his game. Without them, he's average.

Nice to see all the coaches wearing a towel over their shoulder, in tribute to Coach John Thompson

Liberty Mutual lol

That is hard. I hope things work out better for your Grans and aunt.

I hope they’re ok
