  1. I didn’t see any team matching up well in their bracket. There were some other teams in the tournament that I thought could beat them but not in their bracket. They will be in the final four. Told everyone Gonzaga had no shot.
  2. I swear the Gonzaga kids reaction was the same as Lokis… RIP #0 need to put a little cross in the paint so everyone can remember him as they drive by for a layup.
  3. Just can’t keep having those early deficits that we have to dig out of. I think all our losses this year happened that way. But a great game and maybe the closest SC will have the rest of the way.
  4. Personally…I’d rather start him and let him play off more skilled guys that will take the pressure off. I’d bring in Galloway off the bench to be that energy spark plug and initiate offense in the second unit who will benefit from his play making ability. Won’t happen but that’s what I would like to see.
  5. Could be a flash back to 1980 for Clemson/Purdue.
  6. Dynamic point guard…couple shooters and back up big/rim protector.
  7. Yep GS should have transitioned off Draymond and Klay and never added Paul. If they wanted another window with Steph they should have full on tore it down after their championship and definitely last year for a quick reload.
  8. It’s also about being in the right situation….playing in GS is a bigs dream….the spacing and attention that Curry, Thompson and company provide…the vision of Paul…helps him tremendously. Trayce fits the pro game much better than banging in the B1G with 7’0 280 centers night in and out playing back to basket. He plays well facing up and in space where he can use his athleticism.
  9. Yep…no doubt the playing time and money we could offer played a huge roll in us jumping in on this one. To me this is less about Coach Woodson and it’s purely being IU and the current empty roster that landed this kid.
  10. Fundamentally pretty sound. Quick release on his three (like to know his splits), gets to his spots. Good athleticism. A bit slim so he won’t be able to back down much stronger guards next year so he is going to have to find other ways to get to his shot…but yes this is a good pickup.
  11. Yep…some areas have really grown fast…combine that with school consolidations plus the loss of manufacturing jobs in some areas and it’s changed a lot of the demographics. People that used to live in small urban towns to send their kids to a small local school no longer have a reason to live there…town dies when school closes and it just speeds up the process of migration.
  12. If you recruited the kid in HS…you already have their contacts…and you will just keep reaching out all season long. Imo this is something the B1G should put a stop to. If another B1G coach reaches out before a kid enters the portal…suspensions to the coaching staff.
  13. I actually think IU men’s basketball is the joke. The women’s team is very enjoyable to watch…wish I could say the same about the men.
  14. Live in Texas with no income tax in one of the most culturally diverse large cities in America playing for a defensive minded coach or come to Indy for a little more money but probably lose it in taxes….not a tough decision. I’d pick Houston too.
  15. Man he looked terrible vs UConn…I was interested for a minute but definitely second guessing myself.
  16. Imo which counts for nothing….kid is super raw and would need a ton of good coaching….big project and kids like this don’t seem to stick around for that these days.
  17. Nope and she is crazy…living in Kentucky and heard the stories….there is a hotness to crazy ratio definitely doesn’t work out in this case.
  18. Sell it to a family member. If none want to buy it then it won’t matter…won’t stay in the family after they die anyways. Otherwise sell and downsize…although best solution is to not divorce. If you are of retirement age and wanting a divorce…something tells me it should be given every attempt to be worked out. A whole life invested with someone would be an awful thing to throw away if there isn’t something very seriously wrong. I’d hope people at that age are mature enough to learn how to work through their issues and extend some grace to one another…but I know times are changing.
  19. Looks like he is playing against 5th graders…worst defense I’ve ever seen. I can’t tell anything about him other than yes he is athletic….but the competition looks terrible!
  20. At this point I don’t believe anything Woody is peddling. I’m sure he is selling quite the story to makeup for losing his lone 24 recruit and is now on the hot seat.
  21. Imo go 2 preseason games…18 regular season. Two bye weeks with everyone that plays on Thursday night coming off one of those byes. Easy peasy.
  22. Yep…would be a great 4. Doubt he goes anywhere with such family ties to the school.
