  1. Well, come on...they're missing a lot of pieces... Zed Key and Kyle Young (since halftime) out this game, and Sueing and Towns all season... But I don't think Branham and Liddell can overcome this lead... Hoiberg is doing a good job with these guys...
  2. Did you read the initial post I responded to? I think @dgambill is a great poster... One of the best... But I don't agree with that statement at all...
  3. Bryce McGowans gets better every time I see him. And I think Alonzo Verge finally learned what it's like to play PG...
  4. Atrocities against our fellow man are as old as mankind itself... I've never defended our actions when I thought they were wrong...and we've been wrong plenty... But saying the severity of the actions we're taking toward Russia are simply driven by the race of the oppressed is baloney as far as I'm concerned...
  5. I saw the score Monday, but didn't watch the game... Looking at the box score, the Huskers shot 58% for the game, and had 5 players in double figures... Maybe drawing them in the BTT isn't as attractive as we thought...their offense is jelling...
  6. Buckeye losing by 4 to the Huskers at home?
  7. In my lifetime? Giamatti Uberroth Vincent Frick Kuhn Selig Manfried
  8. MSU and Michigan I'm not sure which would help us more if any... I'd rather see Purdue win and drop Wisconsin into a 3 way tie with Illinois and the Boilers simply so it would give us at least a chance to knock Purdue out of a title shot on Saturday...
  9. And going further, when Iraq invaded Kuwait did the world take action? Yes they did...
  10. Where else in the world is a top 3 military invading another sovereign country?
  11. 😁 Yeah, but the Senior Night discussion is interesting too...big clue on who's coming back and who's staying I think... But there is the most important game of the season, too...
  12. We all know most of their cast... Baker and Harper are both streaky players that can step up at the end of a game and make big plays. They're experienced and tough... McConnell is one of the best defenders in the league. He leads the Big 10 in steals. His offense is a little inconsistent (27% from 3) but he's top shelf on the defensive end. Only Harper and Mulcahy shoot the 3 over 35%. Mulcahy is a big PG at 6'6 leads the league in assists, and likes to post up smaller defenders. The guy that worries me is Cliff Omoyuri. He's improved a lot from last year. Exactly the kind of defender Trayce has trouble with. 6'11, long arms, and athletic. He's not much on the offensive end, but they run an effective PnR between him and Mulcahy or Baker. This is going to be a very tough, physical game. I expect them to do a lot of woofing. We can win, but we need a tough defensive effort and effective offense. Race is the big mismatch for them, but Omoyuri is a rim protector so interior passing may be key... And I do think Steve Pikiell is a good coach...
  13. I was going to say the demands Russia puts forward will be so unreasonable that Ukraine won't be able to accept them. I'm actually expecting some sad and tragic "incident" to happen soon... I think Putin is past the point of no return...
  14. I think the "peace talks" are a sham. A CYA for the world to see... I think Putin is deranged and very dangerous at this point...
  15. I was thinking Stewart, simply because he's like 23, has been through a lot, and at times looks unhappy. He's also been sat down twice...and I think he's already got 2 masters degrees... Kopp was just a WAG...
  16. I've been in the grandstand shadows at Wrigley in early June and been cold...
  17. Purdue luvah! Hummel is ok...not the best, but get past the stench of West Lafayette he's not bad. 😁
  18. I thought both he and Benetti we're praying at the end of last night's game for IU to lose... But, maybe I'm just sensitive...that's my hook...my sensitivity 😁
  19. I hope not... Rutgers like to talk a lot... I want XJ focused on the job at hand...
  20. Last year with a lot of the same cast and crew on both sides we lost to them by 4 at home, 11 at the RAC, and 11 in the BTT...
