If you knew that without checking I’m impressed. 

Here’s another baseball one:

Who is the only player to hit 2 grand slams in the same inning?

One of my peers is a Utah grad...I've heard it a time or twelve...

Ahh that’ll do it. I heard it from a Utah grad too haha.

Utah...Alex Smith and Andrew Bogut...

Bingo. Did you actually know or did you check?

Here’s some trivia: what is the only college to have both the number one draft pick in basketball and football in the same year and who were the two players?

Not sure if or how many of you have seen "Hook" but I would say we are more likely to have (left side) "Ge-Ron-I" (right side) "Moooooooeee".  The "e's" are so @Stlboiler23 knows its not a roll call for PU coeds.  🐄🐄 🤣🤣

Hey man I married an IU grad lol.

Good write up, thanks for your contribution to IU coverage! 

Obviously this guy can pick anywhere he wants to play,  and there is a lot of time for him to decide.   Does anyone know if we are a legitimate option or is he just giving polite consideration to in-state schools?

 

 

I’d assume you’re a legit option. I know Purdue is.

I go with troll. No matter what the situation he finds a way to cast it in a negative perspective. Plus, he's called for rooting for losses.

I’m guessing he’s a Purdue fan.

Good looking big on the rise currently sitting at 80 on 247 rankings.

Taking bets on Stlboiler congratulatory post:

My money is on these two words being in there .... “interesting” and “Furst”

Solid pick-up. 

Glad you thought of me though haha.

Good morning IU people  - Purdue grad here. 
 

Heading to my first concert at the Bluebird soon, and was looking for any tips you guys might have as far as parking, nearby places to grab a relatively quick bite to eat before the show, etc. 

 

Another Purdue fan on here? This is weird haha. 

Another awful loss. McMillan sucks in crunch time.

Big win for the Pacers as they beat the Lakers 105-102/  Now 18-9 but that is only good for 6th in the East right now.

Loved seeing all those fair weather Lakers fans all pissed haha.

I feel like this is something that never happens at IU.  A lot of teams have top prospects that they have a connection to that can help lead them to that school, but it seems like IU never has that.  I'm sure being a historically bad program has been part of that issue, but maybe someday we'll have that.

Like for you guys, Karlaftis played right next to the stadium, and Moore played at the high school that Brohm went to.  Not that it is anything against you guys, you still have to do a great job recruiting them, but for once I want IU to have the inside edge on a high 4 or 5 star guy.  You jerks!

Oh it definitely helps for sure that we had those connections with those guys. And I think it’ll help us land George’s little brother Yanni who is a stud LB in the ‘21 class. I’m sure it’ll happen for you guys at some point!

A name that Indiana football needs to be contacting for sure! A 2022 Defensive end out of Indianapolis. Plays for Brebeuf Jesuit and is a potential five star as his rating stands currently! These are kids we have to start getting some of them. We need to be trying to get a lot of these talented in state kids every year and keeping them away from Norte Dame and PU

He’s going to be a good one for sure. Was at the bucket game yesterday. His mom is a Purdue alum which will hopefully help steer him to WL haha.

NBA officiating is so terrible. Pacers got so f’d at end of game vs Hornets in OT. Not to mention the phantom calls in the last minute and half of regulation

42 FT’s to 7 is a joke. 

Awesome start for the Pacers. Yikes 

Just now, NotIThatLives said:

The young pacers walked in thinking they were big stuff.   Laid an egg to a team that wanted it more.   

That was awful. Lose at home like that even without Griffin. 

Pacers should be embarrassed letting Kennard go off for 30. 

I really hope Vic can come back and play at the same level he was playing at. I was at the game where he got hurt and man you could hear a pin drop. I stopped caring a long time ago that he played at IU because the dude plays his ass off and is a hell of a player for my favorite NBA team. Hoping to a full recovery and hopefully back before Christmas.

I still can't believe he got $110M over 4 years at his age and man it would have been tough to swallow for the Celtics to do that, but at the same time he is SO good and critical to what they do. It's a way bigger loss than Kyrie. He does so many things that aren't in the boxscore. 

Agreed. Turner and Sabonis should feast on them next year.

I was talking about Vincent Poirer, they just officially signed him today. 25 year old, 6-11 center who played in the Euroleage last year. 

 

Ahh gotcha. Yeah I think their front court will absolutely be worse. They have no one on Horford’s level. 

2 hours ago, BGleas said:

I would be all-in on the Celtics being better, its just the Horford loss is tough to ignore. I'm not sure if Kanter and the french guy they signed can make up for the loss? I do think Kemba is an upgrade over Kyrie and with Kyrie's loss we'll see Tatum and Brown back on track. I also think Hayward will be back closer to his old form, but the Celtics are for now thin on the inside and really young. 

I don't think Tako makes the squad, but I could be wrong. 

They waived the French guy (Yabusele).

Really happy about the Brogdon/Lamb addition. Hate losing Bojan....but they snapped back pretty quick. My limited knowledge seems like Pacers just said they would rather have Turner and those 2 guys instead of keeping Bojan and not getting others. That make sense? I'm feeling pretty good with these moves. Probably wrong on my part. 

Is Thad def gone?

14 minutes ago, Seeking6 said:

Wow. Lose Bojan but get Brogdon who I think is one of the best free agency moves we could do. Really, really like Brogdon. 

Plus Jeremy Lamb
