That's about as over the top as saying we could lose every game and people would still be on here saying how awesome Woodson is and he just needs more time.

Valid. There’s always going to be extremes in both directions. 
 

Although there would be absolutely no defense if we lost every game. Unless they changed the location of every fire alarm in every building we were in.

And some people struggle to see a different view and respectfully discuss topics sometimes, right?  

I doubt any of your over exaggerations are accurate, but carry on.

The tone of my post was intended to be hyperbolic. As in, not to be taken literally, but translated as “Some IU fans never seem to be happy with anything”.

Interesting wrinkle for potential grad transfers, especially those wanting to go through the draft process.

 

Might start to see some seniors throw their name in "just in case" only to pull back out.

Amazing...

Those were all those crap teams he was on that routinely lost 1-0 or 2-0 when Ryan pitched.

And once Harry butchered it, he'd try to pronounce it backwards 

Which depending on the name, didn't usually sound much worse. 

Couldn't crack single digits either, but I suppose when Steve Rogers is your highest % pick....not a bad day. 13

And funny that we both used Burnitz in different slots.

Thank goodness we don't put the names on the back of the jersey's

I saw that name and thought "Fisch is going to sound like Harry Caray after a 12 pack trying to pronounce that" 😂

I figured it was Sparks decision to leave?  Assume he's looking for more minutes.

Minutes and just overall comfort level I'd assume, given he transferred back to BSU.

Elly De La Cruz 😍

using the opposite field like a vet, currently... He's made two plays defensively, 70ft down the line from third base, this season, as well. Insane talent. 

.295/.402/.641 

Leading the league in steals and switch hits 

Insane talent......if he keeps it consistent.  There were times last year where you had to wonder if he forgot to pack his brain on a road trip.

And people get too caught up in "1st round picks 10-30"... there just isn't that much difference between the 40th-best prospect and the 12th-best, a lot of the time. 

As much as I hate the Patriots, they proved that if you build around the right QB and solid line play on both sides, that skill positions can be swapped and filled as needed.

I've always said halfway in jest that if I were an NFL GM, unless we're talking about an absolute slam dunk like a Joe Burrow, Andrew Luck, Calvin Johnson, etc, I'd take nothing but OL, DL and LBs in the first four rounds of the draft.

Fortunately mine is one that goes up in the air as opposed to ones that shouldn't be leaving the ground.

Also-- Kanaan is NOT a twitter guy. Hasn't tweeted in over 2.5 years. Interesting. 

Rice isn't a big twitter guy either 

I like them that much more now.

So we exchange 9 for 20. Meh. Would have been nice to get Dairy Queen though.

Only two sports Americans care about and PU whipped us in both.  Time to turn the tables

  

The two years I was in B-town were the nadir of both the Mike Davis and Gerry DiNardo eras. I’m damn grateful we had two soccer national championships to celebrate, although much to the relief of IUPD, neither of those involved tear gas or the removal of light poles. 

Dammit.

Those three make sense. Kelley, Mendoza and Kellogg are all good to really f’king good b-schools.

I haven't dialed in yet because of focus on hoops but here's where I'm at with Coach Cignetti. If he needs to send kids packing or whatever you want to call it so be it. I mean no disrespect to CTA and his time but if CC needs to ship dead wood so be it.

That’s a fair statement to make anytime there’s a coaching change.

They are also getting a good amount to do that. Leal seems very smart and is probably using it for future real estate endeavors 

Leal used part of one year’s NIL money to pay off his sister’s entire student loan balance.
