Minnesota@IU, Game 3: UMN 9 IU 8. Two-run homer in the 9th gives the Gophers the win...

IU has already won the series and will now go for the sweep. RHP Bradley Brehmer, who started the yesterday's postponed game is back on the mound and has an ERA of 5.95 in 59 IP, while the Gophers are going with RHP Aiden Maldonado, a transfer from Illinois, with an ERA of 4.06 in 62 IP. Maldonado pitched well in his last start, a win over the Huskers.

In the 1st, Brehmer puts them down in order which included two Ks.

In IU's 1st, IU goes with the same lineup as in the first game today. Whalen pops out to lead off. Jessee then strikes out for the 2nd out. Pyne flies out to end the inning on a great play in LF.

Tired of the Archie hate.

I don’t agree with everything he does, but I’m not sitting around trying to figure out how to get rid of him. I’ve been done with the bashing of him long ago. If some of you are that hell bent on him not being good, then you don’t have to post here and can follow someone else. I’m not happy with the current state of Indiana Basketball but I’ve come to realize the past several months that there is a lot of blame to go around. Including us fans.

Minnesota@IU, Game 2: IU 12 UMN 0. Bothwell pitches 7 relief innings of no-hit, shutout ball...

This game picked up in the bottom of the 2nd and one out with no one on and no score.

LHP Ty Bothwell is on the mound in place of Brehmer for IU with an ERA of 4.79 in 35.2, and RHP J.P. Massey is on the mound for the Gophers with an ERA of 5.64 in 52.2 IP.

In a resumption of the game of yesterday, Tibbetts strikes out on three pitches for the 2nd out and Ellis walks to put a man on with two outs. Glass strikes out to end the 2nd.

RIP Fred Ward

Minnesota@IU, Game 1: IU 8 UMN 6. Late rally avoids a bad loss...

As usual, IU will start the series with RHP Jack Perkins on the mound with an ERA of 4.30 in 67 IP, while the Gophers will go with RHP Richie Holetz with an ERA of 6.75 in 28 IP. Glasser is back in the lineup as the DH with Goforth at SS. Pyne, who reportedly has been nursing a sore groin, is at 3B after missing the Louisville game. Ellis is behind the plate.

Spring Practice Receivers

With Fryfogle and Hendershot at the NFL combine, who catches the ball next year?

Matthews is back. Joined by portal additions Camper, Harris, & Simmons.
Regular signees will need make performance leaps (particularly getting open) to outshine the portal inflow.
Returning players caught 42 passes (of 199) for 469 yards (of 2106).
With 5 QBs there can be lots of balls in the air.
Those who can’t find the handle will be identified quickly.

Saturday's game postponed with a DH tomorrow...

The postponed game will pick up in the bottom of the 2nd with one out and no score, and will begin at 11 a.m. (ET) tomorrow. The 2nd game will start 30 minutes after the conclusion of the first game.

Key game results today that affect IU...

With today's game postponed to tomorrow, there have been some results today that impact the race for the final B1G tournament spots.

Northwestern beat Purdue, 11-1, and Nebraska beat Illinois, 11-2, and both of those schools moved to a game and a half behind us with their wins and are tied for 9th place.

Purdue's loss means that they are a half game plus some percentage points behind us in 8th place.

Michigan got clobbered by Maryland, 20-6, and they are now just a half game ahead of us in 6th place. Should Michigan lose to the Terps tomorrow and we take the DH from the Gophers, we will be a half game up on them in that 6th place.

The Penn State and OSU game was suspended in the 6th inning with OSU up 3-0 and like with IU/Minn, they will complete the suspended game tomorrow in a DH. If PSU were to go on and lose both games tomorrow, they would be tied with IU for 5th place if the Hoosiers win both games tomorrow, and Michigan loses again to the Terps.

I think I got all of that correct so here's hoping for a sweep tomorrow, and if things fall right for us tomorrow, we could be in a tie for 5th place.

“Write Your Gay Friend A Letter”

Social policy in schools is apparently a 2 way street.

A local, private Christian school assigned 7th graders to write a draft letter to a hypothetical gay friend explaining how God feels about it and how they still love their gay friend and want to help them.

Of course private schools are different, but I suspect this will be controversial anyway.

Friday Funnies (belated edition!)

Just now realized I haven't heard/seen SD's FF posts for awhile; hoping he's OK! SD, you still out there and kickin' old man?

Anyway, heard one that made me chuckle and thought I'd share (as a poor replacement for SD's handiwork!):

I was driving through the old neighborhood I grew up in and on a whim I got out and knocked on the door of our old house. When they answered the door, I explained that I'd grown up there and asked if I could come in and take a peek around? They rudely said "NO!" and slammed the door in my face!

My parents can be such a-holes!


Let's see, I believe there's also normally a pic involved... a chick perhaps?
