  1. This is a good assessment of the upcoming season. College Football News considers the Illinois game to be the key game of IU's season. I agree with that. Indiana Key Game To The 2022 Season Illinois, Sept. 2 The Hoosiers have to get off to a big start to put the ugliness of 2021 in the rearview mirror. They start the season at home against Illinois and follow it up with Idaho, so beat the Illini, match last seasons win total by the end of September 10th. There aren’t a ton of winnable games on the slate – or games IU will be favored in. There can’t be any giveaways at home. https://collegefootballnews.com/2022/09/indiana-hoosiers-preview-2022-season-prediction-breakdown-key-games-players
  2. The Athletic has IU as 71st in the nation, 11th in B1G, ahead of Rutgers, Illinois and NW. One spot behind NEB. https://theathletic.com/3535220/2022/08/25/college-football-rankings-2022-preseason/
  3. The student-athletes always come first ”A 12-team playoff has been valued at $1.2 billion annually, up from the current $600 million.”
  4. That's a good point. Over this three seasons, his shooting % has decreased each year, as his shot attempts have increased. That's with those other guys around him, too.
  5. I don't really like that IU didn't schedule a soft non-con game prior to this one. Not good to play a conference game as the first game. Illinois was able to work out some bugs and play a lot of guys in game 1. A "pre-season" game for them.

  7. “The Longhorns have won more than five conference games only twice since their appearance in the 2009 BCS Championship Game.’ “The Longhorns better hurry though. If they struggle to compete in the Big 12, just wait until they get to the SEC.”

  9. I’ll just find something else to do. No problem
  10. Yeah, they're a couple frat boys (with middle school level maturity) who never grew up. The messaging to potential recruits and their families is way outside the lines and very uncomfortable. It's one thing if they want to trade off of this schtick, but as the writer says, they have gotten way too close to the athletic department to portray the university in this way.
  11. Sister Jean was in the spotlight again when Loyola took down Georgia Tech and No. 1 seed Illinois to reach the Sweet 16. 😂
  12. Duquesne offers Bronny’s younger brother Bryce. His first D1 offer.
  13. Yeah, I may be reading too much into his form when he's trying to get so many shots off in a short period. But, I'm saying, in this video, he doesn't square his feet or shoulders to the basket. If that is his shooting form, he'll need to set up farther behind the 3 pt line than a shooter who squares to the basket (or he'll be shooting a lot of long 2's, which is the worst shot in basketball). Also, if he sets up like that in the deep corner, he'll either have his left foot over the 3 pt line, or his right foot on the sideline.
  14. It’s great that he shot that well and I realize it’s all for fun, but his left foot was on or over the line on at least 1/3 of those shots. He doesn’t square up on his shot and steps forward with his left leg. Those won’t be 3’s in a game.
