I read your post re Harris. It’s an interesting historical question and off the top of my head vps have a poor running record but I think the salient part that’s being omitted in your post in comparison to prior elections is Harris’ coronation without a primary.

As close as it gets … * show 10% differences … Everything else is a wash

When it was Kopp, the argument was he has to say good things because he wants views. Why did X, who caught more crap than anyone in recent memory, tell his high school friend to come play for IU? Does he have a podcast I'm not aware of or some other monetary reason?

I hope he gets himself righted or I could see his minutes wane. Leal can provide more than that. Once they play better teams, IU can ill afford to have him launching zeros.

Sadly, I think this is just the start.

Not currently behind a paywall

Jefferson County, Kentucky has the largest school system in the state. They have many problems. Not enough school bus drivers. Too much violence on school buses. Too much violence in schools and at scgool events. Top heavy administrative jobs. Still busing kids up to four hours a day as leftover vestiges of required “diversity“ numbers left over from 1970s bussing required by federal court decisions.

The “equity officer“ is the second highest paid administrative officer in the system. He is African-American. He is a highly visible leader in the community. He recently revealed in posts on his private social media that after the election, he received messages from young black professionals and students seeking his advice on “a strategy“ “moving forward.“

He advised them as follows:

“REGARDLESS of the rooms, meetings, classes, etc., you’re in, know THE MAJORITY of whites could care less about you and have no issues harming you or others.”

In a subsequent post, he said, “Strategy. Count the number in your presence and divide by at least half.”

A group of GOP legislators started raising hell - demanding he be fired or resign.

The former head of the African-American studies program at U of L issued an op ed comparing that demand to slaveholders “breaking” strong-willed slaves.

The current head of the NAACP weighed in claiming that the GOP was silent when locals here received post-election racist message (like the ones at IU and elsewhere) and just really wanted to “take over” the school system and run it from Frankfort.

The JCPS response so far was to say “these posts were not made on behalf of the school school or using JCPS assets.” The only person who can fire this officer is the lame duck Superintendent who has announced retirement after 2 horrible bus plans failed.

Note that these speakers are all highly-educated (Ph.D) and highly compensated. The Equity Officer makes $200,000. (The NAACP objects to this salary having been made public by the GOP - but it is already public knowledge as part of the system budget process.)

The Decade of Hate launched the night Hillary lost is now revealing horrible unintended consequences - including race relations that are as bad as they have been in my lifetime, despite advances (legal and practical) among minorities.

WTF?

I say to heck with all of the prognosticators, and all of the Hoosier football naysayers! This Indiana football team is in a position to do what very few teams can do at this point, and that is control their own destiny. I am sure that our coaching staff is knocking it out of the park in keeping this team focused on the next game. Beat Ohio State!

Has the IU pu game time been announced. I have tickets, but can’t make plans until the time is announced.
And is there TV coverage? Thanks

Guess all that "he's the next Hitler" stuff was just BS... Either that or Mike and Joe are the first among a willing vanguard of the next Quislings...

They say it's an attempt "to restart communications"... Decoded that means: "we've clearly lost our audience and we're willing to do or say anything to attempt to stay on the air"...

Been waiting several years for IUBB to be in this tourney. Can’t wait for the week in Nassau!!

For those of you without Peacock…

Buckeyes with a shot at #1, having clinched the double. Does IU get a seed and at least 1 home game?

So many close calls to mediocre teams. The Cougars finally go down.

Caught a 98 yard TD pass today for the Titans. He was a very solid receiver for IU. This is his 5th season with the Titans. Good for Nick !

So f#cking back! It’s been an amazing November. @BradStevens start doing the Trump dance the next time your neighbor says something silly.

He is in Louisville at the Gualt house hanging out at Stevie Rays Blues bar taking in the Churchill Downes fall meet. I asked him what he thought about the Indiana Ohio State game. He said we have an opportunity here; He is taking Indiana plus the points along with the money line. Then he started to talk about something I didn't really understand. Betting the spread will allow you to bet the money line like a stock put. 100 on the line plus the points plus 100 on the money line gives you an advantage to win 470 verses a downside of 200. He thinks we will win the game and shock the world. The Capper doesn't work, hangs out at the track and check and can cash a check in any bas in three states.

Georgia is ranked ahead of Ole Miss in AP poll. I watched Ole Miss dominate Georgia 2 weeks ago. Kicked their ass up and down the field in all facets of the game. The fix is in to get Georgia in the playoffs
