Coming to grips on some things.

1. Our margin for error is so thin with this team, that Rob Phinisee is legitimately the difference between being an NCAA team and not. We were safely an NCAA team when he played…and we are decidedly NOT an NCAA team without him. Who’d have thunk he’d be the difference.

2. We aren’t going to make the NCAA because we aren’t good enough to win 3+ out of 5 against our remaining schedule.

3. Another year being in this position is depressing.

4. Wyoming is ranked 22nd in the country and a “lock” for the NCAAs. Wy flipping Oming.

5. As it stands today…next year could be worse.

6. Even if we somehow do win 4 more games, including BTT…and do get an at large… we aren’t good enough to do any damage in the tourney.

7. Despite Cavs glowing reviews, and what’s becoming annoying, optimism…our backcourt isn’t capable. We have exactly zero NBA level players on our roster right now.

Can’t honestly imagine coaching this team.

More interested in mouthing off and fake tough guy BS. Can’t shoot a lick. Not even layups and/or free throws. No composure. Not a winner in the bunch. This will sound harsh, but I’m not sure he shouldn’t totally clean house. It’ll probably take a couple years to do it, but we won’t win until these cats are gone.

Last handful of possessions

Trey shoots two 3s.

X shoots two outside shots.

Parker shoots a 26 foot shot, with a defender all over him…out of a time out.

Two problems.

1. We have ZERO players we can rely on to make plays in those situations. Rob is the closest thing, and he’s out.

2. Our coaching staff seems to have no ability and/or creativity to call good plays down the stretch. That’s what we get coming out of that timeout? Those are the guys we end up having take those shots coming down the stretch?

Our talent isn’t good. Sorry Cav, we’re just not very good top to bottom. And while I like a lot of what Woody brings to the program. He isn’t a coach that’s going to bring a lesser talented team along to wins.

Families of Sandy Hook victims reach $73 million settlement with Remington


I wasn't aware that Remington went bankrupt in 2020. The 73M comes from their insurers.

Thousands of pages of internal Remington company documents can also now be made public, according to Koskoff's law firm.

"This victory should serve as a wake up call not only to the gun industry, but also the insurance and banking companies that prop it up," Koskoff said. "For the gun industry, it's time to stop recklessly marketing all guns to all people for all uses and instead ask how marketing can lower risk rather than court it. For the insurance and banking industries, it's time to recognize the financial cost of underwriting companies that elevate profit by escalating risk. Our hope is that this victory will be the first boulder in the avalanche that forces that change."

Official Prediction Thread: IU vs. Wisconsin...

And what are we drinking tonight?

I'm torn on this one. We're coming off 3 straight losses so I keep thinking we're due for a W, especially at home. But we've lost 2 of our last 3 home games and we have not had much success against the Badgers in recent years (I threw up in my mouth a little after typing that). I see that we're a 3-point favorite, but that seems wildly optimistic. My confidence is very low right now.

I want to go with my heart on this one, but my head is winning the argument.

Spaten Pils for me tonight. Going old school!

What say you Hoosier fans?

GO HOOSIERS!!

Absurdle

For the Wordle fans, Absurdle is the game in which the Wordle app is a giant douchebag. Effectively, it changes the word each turn to avoid your guess, but any clues you get remain valid, allowing you to back it into a corner so that only one answer is possible.

(Under the hood, it's actually working a little differently, but that's what it looks like to the player.)


Since it's randomly generated, you can play as much as you want, and there is no turn limit.
