One conservative’s argument for a Harris vote

I’m not going to waste my time for the argument against Trump. It’s been made repeatedly already. I’d be more interested in someone conservative actually supporting or endorsing Harris, as in they believe she is the best candidate. But we all know why we don’t have that.

Hundreds of prominent Republicans are supporting Harris, for a myriad reasons, mostly that Trump is dangerous. Now show me the prominent Democrats supporting Trump. I'll give you the two kooks, Tulsi and RFKjr.

Looking For Crowd Song?

I thought I read that we are looking for a song for our student body and crowd when our Hoosiers have another GREAT VICTORY!
Anyone remember 2007 and we needed to be PU to make a bowl? Great game and a last second FG won for IU 27-24. It was fantastic.
Players and fans on the field celebrating and carrying the Oaken Bucket! No one left the stadium and the band played and everyone was
Singing “Hey, Hey, Baby. I wanna know oh, oh, if you’ll be my girl.” It was super. I saw an old teammate Ken Kaczmarek singing and giving fist bumps.
It was a great win and the singing made it a great moment. It’s a feel good song and lyrics. It’s a great song and some great wins are on the way.
Let’s get a song. Practice your singing and let’s “buckle up” and enjoy!
Go Hoosiers!!

New Yorkers Lining Up for Trump

Every time she speaks, Dems seem poll lower. She has to know how preposterous “the Bund rally” claim is. Otherwise, Hilary must truly believe Trump is the reincarnation of that Austrian corporal.

I don’t think she believes it. But I do think she wants others to believe it.

And, in the next breath, she’ll wax poetic about how coarse our political dialogue has become…and no Dems or media folks will say a word about the hypocrisy.

IU unchanged in both polls at #13 (links).

Cig is trying to change the mindset of indiana football fans and that means we have to get out of the mindset that everyone is against us. I am not mad our ranking didn’t change and I am not mad that Texas a&m jumped over us. On paper they had a much better win and as much as I love our wins we still have not played any opponent ranked in the top 25. So, someone without rose colored glasses on could argue we are lucky to even be ranked. A few weeks ago the idea of IU even being in the conversation of the playoff was laughable. Now, it is being discussed by everyone. There’s no way a 0 or 1 loss IU team is held out of the playoffs, but we have to keep winning. Two or more losses doesn’t get us there.

Officiating and rankings won’t always be the way we want them. We will get some bad/missed calls, but we will also benefit from them. We are 8-0 and have fan bases around the country hating us for our success, but at the same time wishing Cig was their coach. Keep winning and we will go up in ranking. Enjoy the ride and appreciate the spotlight we are under because we are in the midst of a season we have spent our entire lives dreaming of. Whether we were ranked 13 or 1 today the only ranking that matters is the one released after we beat Purdue.
As opined in multiple threads before, an 11-1 Indiana team can, and probably would, be left out of the CFP, assuming no weird stuff happens. I don't think the CFP humans select 4 B1G teams for the CFP field (essentially 3 of 7 At Large spots). If IU is considered 4th best in the B1G, prepare to be disappointed. With a 12-0 Indiana, OSU will be left out. If OSU had stumbled yesterday, 11-1 Indiana's chances go way up. I'm not saying an 11-1 IU wouldn't deserve a spot over ... say an 11-1 team that lost to .. say Northern Illinois ... but that's where IU sits today.

Just go 1-0 vs. MSU.

A majority of teams run a two big lineup. That's not what matters, it's what the two bigs do and how they fit into the scheme. Generally, the lane's not clogged, that's what matters and if opposing teams start to sag and cheat on Malik and how he shoots. Plus, Mack has gotten a lot of run at four today.
And Malik hits one right on cue...

ND should be behind IU. Northern Illinois lost to Ball State and is 4-4. They have played a soft schedule too. That loss should take them outside the top 15.
They’ve got a worse loss but a better win (A&M).

If IU starts the season ranked, we’re ahead of ND right now. As it is, we started way outside, so we’re behind. No sweat. Keep winning each week and it’ll work out.

Great. Another two big lineup. Nothing changing it would appear.

Thumb Update Good news

Did we take Washington lightly? I’m not saying to take anyone lightly, but if he’s questionable would you rather risk it against a lesser opponent than Michigan or OSU? Or at least, keep him ready if needed?

I’m all about having Rourke healthy down the stretch, as I don’t believe we have as good a chance vs Michigan/OSU with TJ as we do Rourke, but vs MSU its not as much a concern.

At the end of the day, he’s only going to play if the medical staff says he’s ready anyway. But if I’m Coach, I’m holding him back. But, I’m not so we’ll see.
If he’s cleared to go, he’ll go.

CCC will tell you the same as any other coach, the most important game is this game because it’s the one we’re playing this week.
