  1. When you consider what some Alabama players did last year its not really surprising.
  2. I'm gonna need a cigarette after this game.
  3. Grand Canyon playing a no f$#^s given offense LMAO
  4. One Alabama player was knocked out in the first half and is out of the game.
  5. Like playing basketball at the Road House.
  6. The offense Hurly is running at UConn is incredible. Watch it while you can because I'm willing to bet he's coaching in the NBA next year.
  7. The Grand Canyon Alabama game has been extremely physical and confrontational. 2 techs on Alabama already, 10 combined blocks, 3 or 4 reviews and one Alabama player out with a head injury.
  8. Yeah but who in their right mind is giving six figures to this dude...
  9. As a child I fondly remember attending the Canadian Wilt Chamberlain's "100 Hack Game" with my dad. He was lucky enough to get hacked by Edey right after he took this famous photo. Unfortunately, my Dad had to eat smoothies for the rest of his life.
  10. I bet @5fouls on certain Purdue player could.
  11. This isn't 100% true. IU boards have 100% trust that season tickets, apparel and the price of peacock be will increased indefinitely.
  12. The 3 point miss with 10 seconds left on the shot clock while up by 3 was the worst. Virginia really choked but things happen in Men's CBB that's why we watch!
  13. Matt Painter is a pretty smart coach. He purposely puts Edey near average sized people and children after each game to help him practice not hacking all the time. He's only hospitalized 34 kids this season compared to 102 last season.
  14. Anyone have the slightest idea about what WaPo might be investigating?
  15. You make a really good point here. If the international players weren't going to make money then it wouldn't matter if they couldn't get an NIL. Below is some general data for Europe. Region/Country League Average Salary U$D Max Salary U$D Europe Europe Euroleague 500k-800k/season 4m/season Spain ACB 250k-500k/season 4m/season Turkey BCL 250k-500k/season 3.7m/season Russia VTB United 200k-450k/season 4m/season Italy Serie A 180k-350k/season 2m/season Greece Greek A1 60k-250k/season 2.5m/season Germany BBL 100k-350k/season 1m/season Israel Premier L. 80k-250k/season 1.7m/season France LNB Pro A 80k-200k/season 300k/season
  16. Yeah those last 50 seconds were wild and horribly played by Virginia. :43 Ryan Dunn fouls a 3-point shooter, Morsell makes all 3, 58-55, UVa :22 UVa misses 3-point shot with 10 seconds on shot clock :08 State misses errant 3 attempt, UVa rebound, State foul :05 UVa misses front end of 1-and-1 State gets up court, banks buzzer beater for OT
  17. A fan that questions the direction of Indiana Men's Basketball and or choices of the coaching staff, BoTs and Administration. Basically, anyone with concerns that we were 19-14 this year. Anyone wondering how in the 3 point era we have ranked the last three years 324, 345 and 355 in percentage of points coming from the 3 point line.
  18. This is correct and Purdue had to go through some kind of US Immigration employment loophole to get Edey his NIL. Edey is on an F-1 Student Visa and the restrictions are pretty dumb. Basically US immigration law makes it very hard to pay foreign players NIL. Far beyond Zach Edey this will prevent many international players from earning NIL money and or equivalent money compared to their American teammates and diminishes the likelihood of another Edey "The F-1 Visa (Academic Student) allows you to enter the United States as a full-time student at an accredited college, university, seminary, conservatory, academic high school, elementary school, or other academic institution or in a language training program. You must be enrolled in a program or course of study that culminates in a degree, diploma, or certificate and your school must be authorized by the U.S. government to accept international students. Employment F-1 students may not work off-campus during the first academic year, but may accept on-campus employment subject to certain conditions and restrictions. After the first academic year, F-1 students may engage in three types of off-campus employment: Curricular Practical Training (CPT) Optional Practical Training (OPT) (pre-completion or post-completion) Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Optional Practical Training Extension (OPT) F-1 students may also be eligible to work off-campus on a case-by-case basis as a result of special situations such as severe economic hardship or special student relief." Basically, international players have no incentive to come to the US and play basketball if their intent is to earn NIL and make it to the NBA.
  19. So there's not one happy ending in all this. Another typical day as an Indiana Men's Basketball fan.
  20. The only experience not shown there was one with education.
  21. All I know is that this place has a lot to learn if we want this kind of class around here.
  22. You all gotta read the Time to Get banned thread. https://kentucky.forums.rivals.com/threads/time-to-get-banned.409516/ This link is NSFW
