Just like guns don't kill people, forks don't make people fat, and cars don't get drunk and kills people on the road.  Social media is no more evil or responsible for people being horrible.  30 years ago it wouldn't have been social media but letters and email threats.  People suck.  They continue to find more and creative ways to suck.   And just like everything else, its the extreme outliers that do most of the horrible things in life.

I think social media does make it easier to suck.  They can post whatever and almost always with zero consequences.  Keyboard losers for the most part would never say what they say to someone’s face.  It enables the cowardly losers that suck to hide.

So looks like Jelks had personal matters to deal with this year.  Wonder if she transfers, maybe this was too big a stage for her?

Worth posting as a heads up.  I don’t see Teri leaving IU but I am sure Tenn makes a call.  Lawson I believe played at Tenn so may be the inside track but you never know.

I'm behind...is she leaving?

No, just curious what her status is as she played sparingly and at the end of season not at all.  She has an injury history so makes you wonder if that’s the issue.

We have more than two spots left. I don't think we need to replace Scalia with portal, maybe though.  Women get 15 schollies. 

I wish I knew more about the Currie-Jelks situation. 

I have been wondering about Currie-Jelks as well.  Seems like a solid player.  Didn’t she have knee issues in high school?

I believe we have two spots left so I say we replace Scalia and Holmes with starters that can pop right in.

Yep I didn’t realize they had and open scholly already, that’s nice to have two.

Not even for a championship? 

Fine I’ll do it, you all better thank me properly 

Two bigs coming in. The Indian Creek girl seems primed to take over Macks spot eventually.  Terri always seems to find some great portal players.  Need one or two if anyone leaves to open a scholly.

Seems like a great sign to me

That’s what he said as well.

With all due respect, we don't need further clogging inside of the arc.  We need spacing and three point threats.  This is the exact opposite of what we need outside of the length on the defensive side. We need the 4 and 1 offense that was promised to us by Woody. 

Plenty of players and time.  And I appreciate you respect me.  Even my wife doesn’t 😆

I like the better difference and mid range.  Reminds me of JHS and his midrange.  Hopefully MM at the 4 and the Telford can shoot threes.

I graduated with 100 people, but like 10 didn’t actually didn’t graduate and got certs of attendance 😂

are the tacos any good?  I live nearby lol

Very good, lots of good reviews too

Mbako needs to turn the tacos into NIL.  Get the Ellettsville shell gas station with their amazing tacos to sponsor him 🌮

The IU students having a flop and whine tally board for her when they came here was amazing lol

A lil birdy told me that Nicolas Cage is using all of the "directional state" games as the road map for National Treasure 3.....supposed to be a 2 feature story.

MR doesn’t have the motor or the athleticism that TJD did. Comparing MR to him is a slap in the face of TJD. TJD was always a rim protector, got after it on D, and rebounded his butt off. MR does none of those things. No offense, but not even close. 

I agree completely.  I would also like to see him pout and whine less.  Reminds me of what turns me off from Caitlin Clark.

@tdhoosier with solid analysis on portal success this past year.  Not a great sign for the team IMO and as we have discussed here:

want to comment on the odds of it meshing, but will jump back over to the Fire Mike Woodson thread...

Maybe I am putting too much faith in the staff which is fair.  Hoping increased NIL would help.  I mean @Indykev said he was not there the first day they got to work.

There are enough good players in the portal for IU to be a good team next year. It’s going to come down to 2 things. 
 

1. Can they land the talent they need. 
2. does the newly acquired talent actually fit into a cohesive team that can win. 

Number two is the key to me
