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!

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.

Tarnation is just a southern socially acceptable variation of the "F" word

Oh i agree that College officials are terrible but i think its more because they want to be to much in the game. Where as i feel and i will admit i don't watch NBA regularly, let so much go.

True but for the most part they are all highly talented players. College might have 1 of them on a team and rest are usually never going to make it to the NBA. Its just not the same game either direction you go. And we never take in to account the officiating or whatever they call it at the NBA level that allows for so much more everything.

I'll amend it more. You're never more open than when you push your defender down and the refs let it happen bacause you're an overpaid baby on the court and they don't want to hear it from you for the next 40 minutes.

they are in the NBA for a reason. Most of the starters on every NBA team was at one point the best players on their team or in the country. It is somewhat comparable to college but we're not comparing apples to apples here. You don't make to the nba or the starting rotation by not having good BB IQ or a skillset that makes you a hard matchup.

5-guys and In&Out Burger are the best places i have been that are chain like joints

He could sell hotdogs to vegans. Dang

For what its worth, i agree with IUFLA on this and i never agree with him. I am more likely to agree with IU Scott, and we know how much we love each other, than with IUFLA. Kopp is a smart kid, can't get into Northwestern without it, and will help with our grade averages and all that. He is a capable shooter who struggled last year. Maybe with 8-10 minutes a game and him not needing to be the sole scorer or being open more will help him out. But this one is a gamble, but i like the pickup never the less

Dakich, don't need a thread for 6,237 people to say the same thing.

If i had to say who was going to leave from our current players, i would rank them like this 1.Hunter 2.Rob P 3.Galloway 4.Lead With the addition of so many shooters, Hunter seems the odd man out. He is a decent shooter but is woefully lacking on the defensive end of the floor. His BBIQ and situational awareness are also lacking at time which led to bad decision made and the worst possible time. If Lander makes a huge jump which could be possible, he takes Rob's minutes which puts him in a bad position with sever better shooters coming in who have experience. Galloway is a hustle guy who isn't particularly great at anything but god does he give you 100% when he is in. Needs to learn to shoot better and finish at the rim stronger but that will come with age and experience. Leal is a fantastic shoot and was one of the first to say he wasn't going anywhere and loved the coaching hire. So my bets are on Hunter going somewhere else.

Did you go in and see what they were doing? What were they working on? Inquiring minds want to know about your inside information
