A look at updates on a few Indiana targets from Rivals national writer Ryan Wright.

seems like we were late to get in the game with him. Mich St was in early and got him. Did the coaching change put us too far behind? Are there character issues? Can't remember the last #1 player in our backyard, maybe Oden

I know it’s not IU related but I sure hope he doesn’t have foot, leg, ankle issues that ruin his career. Rik Smits and Yao Ming come to mind. He’s so slight and thin. Damn

Grand jury charged one police officer with 3 counts of wanton endangerment (felony).
He was the one fired for (allegedly) basically standing outside and shooting blindly into the apartment of Taylor and her neighbors.
Sounds like the charges are for the shots into the other apartments - speculation is that the ballistics showed none of his shots hit Taylor - speculation.

No murder.
No manslaughter.
No one else indicted or charged.

But if he was found guilty of all 3 and sentenced to consecutive terms, the time could exceed a single sentnec on a single charge of manslaughter. (According to TV talking head lawyer on local TV. Take it for what its worth.)

Saw this article and the observations seem spot on to me. Maximizing NIL $ in the short term is not necessarily well aligned with optimal individual (or team) football performance

Biden to address the nation at 7:30.

Need a current report on Otter Creek.

Good shape? Or play elsewhere?

New names? Wives? Jail?

I have no idea how to write recipes, I seldom use them but here goes....

Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Sauce ..
6 med cloves garlic
3 Tbl butter
3 Tbl flour
1.5 cups milk (could be more could be less)
1/4 cup (one handful +/- to taste) shredded parmesan cheese

Veggies, fungus and pasta ..
1 container mushrooms (your choice of type)
1 bunch of spinach
1 lb pasta of choice ( I prefer tofette but any thick pasta works)
2 tsp Butter

Salad ..
1 bunch of green or red leaf lettuce (casa's uses wilted iceberg)
1 green pepper
2 green onions
Quality caesar dressing (or make your own - I have a good recipe)
Shredded parmesan cheese.

Optional ...
0.5 grams of Bubba Kush or similar high grade strain.

First the prep. Optional...
Grind one bud of Bubba Kush or equivalent smoke, put into dry clean bowl and smoke. Turn on some Charles Mingus.. Smile, remember, life is good.

Then, the Casa's house salad....
Tear lettuce into bite sized pieces.
Slice green onions, including green part.
Cut one "square side" of green pepper
Place green pepper directly on burner med high heat until burnt.
Once burnt, put into plastic bag for 10 to 15 minutes. - let cool, scrap black stuff off, dice.
Combine ingredients and dress and cheese to flavor, toss.

(Optional) Yell, (to GF or wife, especially if she has repressed friends as company) "hey come here and toss my salad" then giggle.... and then giggle some more and wonder why you're so juvenile..

Then the sauce...
Mince garlic, add butter to pan until heated, saute garlic in butter for 30 seconds.
Add flour, cook 3 to 4 minutes stirring until it tans. Don't Tom Crean it.
Add milk - bring to boil WHILE stirring - turn heat down to simmer WHILE whisking. It should thicken into a sauce.
Once desired thickness - add cheese, salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

Then the rest ...
Saute mushrooms in a bit of butter. Set aside.
Boil pasta until al dente
Rinse and tear spinach, put into strainer
Once pasta is done, pour the hot water into strainer with the spinach until it wilts.
Save one cup of water. (See below).
Drain rest of pasta in another strainer.

Once strained...
Combine all ingredients in large pot, season if needed and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. If your sauce is too thick - add a bit of the saved pasta water until desired thickness, er thinness. If too thin - cook longer.

The spinach can be replaced with whatever. We do broccoli once in awhile.

Don't be shy

All 3 pundits seem to think it’ll be Tuttle
Thought they had an interesting point by highlighting he hasn’t really been able to showcase his talent while healthy, and said he’s a leader in the locker room.

I still don’t know how a 2 yr starting SEC FOY doesn’t beat out a guy that’s never been a regular starter, but what do I know

That the game on December 10 will be the first time we've played Arizona. I figured we would've run into them sometime in the past in a pre or post season tournament.

Florida votes tomorrow, if he gets 2% in his state Senate race, he's just crazy. He starts getting over 15%, there is a whole heaping lot of crazy.

Twitter permanently banned him. What do people think of that (yes, I believe calling on people to be murdered should be a reason to be blocked).

Our third installment of the monthly mailbag with Travis Graf gets underway today.

I will leave the thread open until sometime on Thursday, most likely.

Drop in any questions you have for him related to Indiana recruiting, basketball, player development etc.

What's good, everybody!
