This is interesting. You could add a whole curriculum easily around this. Marketing classes, Speech/Communication classes, Finance/Budgeting, Health and Sports Medicine. There are so many things that could help prepare these kids for the next level.

The rest of the world has and continues to tread Covid-19 as Pandemic. We in the US declared it safe and have moved on with our lives. Whether that was a good or bad idea is up to each person and they own individual beliefs, political or otherwise. And we should not be surprised or otherwise outraged by another countries decision that doesn't meet with those of the United States and its occupants. We might police the world and heed the call to defend those we deem allies, but it doesn't mean we get to dictate their rules when they differ from out own. Plus, Covid-19 is a US government hoax that has tricked the whole world into believing we're all going to die from it so they can harvest our organs when they plug us into the matrix. Greatest global conspiracy since the Moon Landing.

This i could get behind. A team to kick the shit out of in football and boost the conference in basketball

It really is hard to tell if they liked him or not with all the losing. Lack of effort on the court. Back talking and general distain for any coaching he did during the game and throughout his time as the head coach. The more we lost; the more we struggled to score; the more our offense was exposed as basic and pedestrian; the more announcers, other teams and players called us out for being soft and easy, Each time this happened, players, coaches, and fan lost more and more respect and trust of CAM. To the point players would blatantly ignore or clap back at coach when coming off the court. Fans were booing on in the stands and calling for his job. But did they like him, i don't know. Maybe. They sure didn't act like they respected him at all. I am not dogging on CAM. He took the job. I assume he tried his absolute best to win games. He just failed. It happens to allot of people, including high paid coaches.

Doesn't matter our non-con or conference schedule. Win 25+ games and we're probably a 5 seed. Winning Cures All as they say. Hell if Gonzaga can get 20 wins in that shitty conference they are in and hang everything on 8 non conference games, we should be able to do it the other way around.

Not reading the whole thread. Has serious does it sound that Texas and Oklahoma might be headed to the SEC? I saw an article today stating they had reached out. Goo god that conference would be even more prestigious if they added those 2.

Who knows why he has turned it down.

Alot of players just turn down the invitation and i think Steph has been asked twice now.

and most pro athletes make more money from sponsors than they do contracts so its really no different.

Just to much money anymore in sports and they can get it younger and younger.

Exactly what i was thinking. I wouldn't be surprised to see Kentucky win a title in the next 3 years.

The transfer Portal just gave Calipari new life in Kentucky.

did he like hit 90% of his 3s he shot in that one section? Was it edited to only show the makes?

Probably didn't hurt having a 7' Patrick Ewing on the team either

i think these can be moved over to the transfer portal thread we have that covers all things transfer

We're going to struggle with that Zone. Just no way to practice against it. Its so alien to those in the B1G. I honestly will count this as a loss on the calendar and not worry at all about it.

As long as it's not Grab-Ass defense we're probably ok. But if he does go with the Grab-Ass style defense, it'll look like we're just goofy around the whole game and not taking it serious at all.

I never bought into the Hunter was an NBA talented kid. I think he was a product of the Romeo quote of him being the best player on the team and a NBA talent. Maybe the raw physical tools were there but he never had it between the ears. His defense made Blackmon Jr look like an All B1G defender. He made terrible decision at terrible times on multiple occasions. He was just a good enough shooter at times to make everyone think he was going to break out. Maybe this is all CAM's fault since Rob never developed either, but at some point, a player is exactly what we see on the floor. Injury or not. The injury didn't impact his ability to learn the offense or defense and make good mental decisions. Just my though. Feel free to disagree.

I give Lander a pass for last year. To me this is his true freshman year. Lets see what he can do.

I would still disagree with it most likely

Any organized college level sport, be it cheerleading or football is tough competition and requires top tier athletes, unless its Curling, then anyone can do that.

I fundamentally disagree with almost every post you ever put on here. But this is not one of them. CMW has had a phenomenal offseason and positioned IU for success. As mentioned, we haven't seen a minute of basketball yet. We have had hype in the past, although we forget. Hype for the movement. Hype for the tough nosed CAM. Hype for Romeo and Lander. And now Hype for the next big thing, CMW. But it always seems to fall short come game time. I truly hope that the hype and excitement translates to wins on the board. The B1G is going to be weaker this year in my opinion and its our opportunity to put a strangle hold on the top tier So here is to my one and probably only agreement post with IUFLA and GO HOOSIERS!

2 Villains come to mind. Craft from OSU and Recker from Iowa for being a traitor.

GET OFF MY LAWN DAGNABIT. GOSH DANG LONG HAIRED HIPPIES ALWYAS ON MY LAWN. NEVER HEARD OF A RAZOR OR SEEN A COMB. WELL, BACK IN MY DAY, WE SHAVED 3 TIMES A DAY AND WENT TO THE BABER, WALKING UP HILL BOTH WAYS MIND YOU, TO GET OUR HAIR CUT EVERY DAY AND TWICE ON SUNDAY. MUBBLE MUBLE MUMBLE HIPPIES LOOKING LIKE JUSTINE BEAVERSON.
