Youth football in bloomington is a fraction of what it was before Myron left the first time. Thus the decline in Talent for South. Moriority got as much out of the limited talent as anybody could. New coach doesn’t seem to have much charisma . Mo wasn’t able to get them back to the highest level. I don’t see Gabe Johnson getting any further.

How would you react if FW Snider changed their nickname to the Cougars?

I would feel real bad, if, New Haven changed their name to New Haven Poodles. 
Ok , now I see what you mean. 

Is this petty slow time discussion? Uh, what does this do to the school as far as their performance in any of the sports? Explain.

Top 100 player in the country Daeh McCullough commits to the Hoosiers. 

Another  ,of the brothers , committed.  Family affair 

Yea, but Buffalo always passes when the wind is at their back. Seems to me like Chicago always tries to get the passing game going when the wind is into their face. Am I wrong?

The mega schools are in their own little world. (Indianapolis) Keep it as is. The rest of Indiana can have fun with the other classes. 

Lol, you have had a ‘stop and sea”sandwich? 
You know they recruit, don’t you?

I am ok with him going. He was one that was just way too inconsistent in his play. It is interesting though that after meeting one on one, he still decides to leave when so many others stayed.  

That whole last season was a real enigma. Mentally challenging year, all the up and down play that they had. He probably wants to put it all behind, a change of scenery is his way of getting there. But I still like the indiana guys to stay in state.

RS JR - Race Thompson (returning to IU)

So - Armaan Franklin - (transferring to UVA) 

 

This leaves IU with 2 open scholarships Hoosiers will probably look at Post depth (Brunk and TJD gone after this year) and another pure shooter on the perimeter.  

Man, sure would have been good if the Indiana boy, Armaan , stayed. 

I’m sure he was cleared of the allegations. I’m glad they ( the university) didn’t knuckle under to the liberal,  cancel culture.  He seems to have fallen behind in the Pack 12.  Look at the other schools this year. Man it was a hammer of a conference. Also, notice the women’s program, getting to the finals?

My memory isn’t what it used to be. 

I think the issue is you had more important things  on your mind Bob,at that time. Being studious,  Law school , money for school.You had tunnel vision let’s say. Iu Basketball was an important release but very secondary. Where as I ,being a senior in the business school, but majoring in extracurricular activities, had complete focus on indiana sports. Thus it was an easy catch for me. Correct me if I’m wrong.

I think there is little danger of that happening unless they find another Bob Knight-like figure, whose personality overshadows the fact that he was a 1 in a million coach.

New president, tuned into the athletics side of the University. And an athletics director that really gets it. Is the ticket, from here on out. 

Easy, about 2 Saturday’s ago I had my XM radio on a station I never listen to.  Well the show was Dan Dakich. I’ve never listened to him before. The only thing I got to know about him on the radio,was all the controversy he generated over the years. Beside the point. 
what he said was as interm coach, as a result of the Sampson dismissal, Dan was in the meetings with the AD , president and school committee that was in charge of the selecting the next coach.   He said , that the exact words were , “we will never let the basketball program elevate to the degree, that it over shadows the university again. “  

So to put it in simple terms we are down grading the basketball program.  
The rest is history. 

I was at the game in Dayton, when Kentucky beat Indiana, and one armed Scott May.  

Bob ,UR right,  the 75 team may be the best ever in the NCAA. Considering the average winning point margin for the season. I know UCLA has an argument here. 
One thing though, John laskowski graduated with Steve green. I think you are thinking of Tom Abernathy stepping in Johns slot in 76.

you are welcome.  thank you.

Little Ryan is going to be the highest paid amateur  golfer in the USA this year. 

Hook, line and sinker. 

Any good FBALL players playing in the finals this weekend?

Yes Sir!

I remember the memorial coliseum with over 10,000, standing room only crowds for sectionals.  Semi state games there, they were almost unavailable for most people to get into until after the  morning game's were over. Then you could get tickets from the loosing teams fans leaving after the game in the parking lot. Lol

Yea little Ryan Miller. 

I’m pumped, this will be a great state finals. 
All zones in the state are in the mix for recognition.

I was just tossing it out there. No idea 

I don’t think he was the main cog. But I’m not privy to this.  
There are several alum who can and could underwrite the process. It’s a payout over several years and if Ryan takes another position, the payout diminishes tremendously.
