FKIM01 Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 Cody wasn't wrong. I think Vic could run for governor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 I'm personally pretty excited about this. I love the Indy 500 at an equal level I love IU basketball. I will be attending my 25th this year. I even started a threat about this year's race in the Animal House. This is combining my two sports passions.

This post should have been started in your thread in the Animal House. And since it is here.... I will link your thread here. 2018 Indianapolis 500 - The Animal House - Hoosier Sports Nation | Indiana Basketball and Sports Forum Parakeet.... thanks for being aware that the "Animal House" exists as part of HSN.

This is about Victor Oladipo, IU basketball player, so...naw. It stays here and belongs here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted May 17, 2018 Report Share Posted May 17, 2018 I wonder if LeBron will try and goaltend Vic on this drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomBaby Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 I bet he would do a good job singing "Back Home Again In Indiana" now that Jim Nabors is no longer around. Just read that an IU Music grad, Jim Cornelison, sang it last year and will again this year, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted May 18, 2018 Report Share Posted May 18, 2018 The thing about Vic is this. Here's a kid from Maryland but somehow he's pure Hoosier. With the exception of 2 other athletes I haven't watched an athlete match up with a city and state since the other two did. Those two out of state guys were Reggie and Peyton. Time will tell if Vic can match that level of fandom and success....but Vic is everything we want in an athlete representing not only IU on the big stage but Indiana. PS...I have no idea what Vic was like in Bloomington on off nights...but usually after a year you hear things in Indy about guys. I know Reggie liked to have fun. Varying levels of rumors regarding Peyton. But with Victor....not a peep. I hear nothing about him being out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never saw him take a drink during basketball season, but did see him take plenty of women home, lol. My understanding was that he partied like anyone else in the offseason, but during the season he was all business. Always respected that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did a phenomenal job. Hoosier ties. Makes sense. Of course I want Kid Rock to be permanent Carb Day act so I guess we can't always get everything we want. Or just once I'd love to see a huge act. Metallica, Pearl Jam...put 80k inside there like they did for Rolling Stones. Would be huge addition to track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
