Really not blaming anyone. Appreciate the information you share. Just tired of all the fighting. Sometimes I contribute to it too.
Should never have told SoccerSammy his screen name annoys me. 😁
But if I am right on anything, it is that Parker is a real good guy.
Better question Cav, is Bates coming back and what will he look like (physically) if he does?
His dad posted something yesterday that sure sounds like he’s coming back.
X going at Dan Dakich on Twitter and Tamar’s daddy posting about his sons possible future plans.
Woody needs to take control of this garbage. IU hoops is all drama these days.

I have always said Tamar’s mental state is different than any player I have ever seen at IU. I dont talk to Tamar, I talk to his dad. I like his dad a lot, super cool guy.
I went to the MI game with him and something that really stood out is how we were talking about how Galloway earned his minutes. Earned being the key word. Tamar has had you need to work for everything, nothing is given everything is earned mentality drilled into him.
when you listen to tamar speak you feel the passion and drive. That is real. He will work his tail off this summer.
I thought he was going to play better than he did this year, but I have zero concern about him going forward. He will use this as fuel this off season. I expect him starting and making big strides. His shot just needs to go in. Has all the tools.
Dakich is as worthless as you. Does nothing good for our program. Utter disgrace.

“Fatigue isn’t bothering Notre Dame…amazing what having mature, win first guys can accomplish.. #iubb fans you’ll always have your Tik Tok videos.. hope that helps”

“You right. Can’t blame a loss on fatigue. But you play 5 games in 7 days…”
That’s fine, but IU parents and players Twitter accounts are silly as well.
Grow the F up everyone
Dan does what you and many do on here except he does it in a space that gets 1000000x more eyes and all players see it when he tags #iubb
he is a child.
X popping off shows a lack of self control.
It does nothing for the program either
You BOTH need to grow up. It takes two people to have a meaningless argument. Or, just take it off-line and spare everyone else.
Individually you are probably BOTH enjoyable to be around. Together you are toxic and you don't make each other better.
I actually take offense to that.
You believe pumping sunshine and trying to be buddy’s with 20 year olds adds to the IU hoops program. That’s f’ing hilarious and pathetic.
It’s a microcosm as to why they got 30 pieced in round 1.
People like X and Cav would never understand that. Who are really the children?
The whole fatigue argument is so tiring.
IU was lucky to play 5 games in 7 days. If They don’t, no tournament. I am of the opinion that we lose to Wyoming if that game was in Portland.
Agreed.
I think it’s something else. Some have the impression that this forum exists to market IU basketball. That if you are a sunshine pumper you are “contributing “ and that if you are a negative whatever that you don’t “contribute” anything.
the purpose of this forum isn’t to market IU basketball. And nothing posted here either benefits or detracts from the IU basketball program. This place doesn’t exist to contribute to IU basketball.
I find it odd for people to take shots at you or anyone else who supports IU with their dollars and loves the program so much as to weave it into their working life. You are a very lucky man and I suspect envy plays a part in the criticism you get.
I'm older than you, but I understand that today's players have different expectations, with NIL and the Twitter's, etc. To sustain success, IU needs needs more of us to put up or shut up. Now that I think about it, I'd actually prefer more of us do both 😉. At any rate, I enjoy the tidbits.
I’m curious how Woody manages the roster. He’s going to have to have leadership he trusts.
I can’t imagine X falls in that category.
I can’t wait for Cupps to get here
TOS suggests most of the academic seniors are gone. I agree and expect a half-dozen new faces next season.
Based on how he operates and brags about having access and conversations with the team, I would wager it’s more posturing than any material contribution. Another “blogger boy.”
It would be fun to see the actual paper trail vs any random substantial IU donor to see who’s really contributing. Taking time out of a players day to ask about favorite pizza toppings doesn’t do much for anyone.
Dan popping off shows a lack of self control. And he hurts our program with his constant shit talking.
Dumb. Absolutely nothing wrong with Tamar's dads post.
The fluff is not my cup of tea necessarily, but its important for in the NIL era for recruits to have as many positive opportunities as we as a fanbase can muster. Cavs style isn't for everyone, but somebody's gotta do it.
I dont have a tiktok or even Twitter, but those things are important to players we want to play at IU. Embracing it beats wishing it away. It ain't going away.
Seriously? Any D1 school? Damn, is he as good as Lander, or have you let that narrative go?
Please keep your distance from Bates. Please.
And go ahead and write Romeo an apology card while you’re at it.
He’s one of the best players to ever wear an Indiana uniform. Just because you expected him to be 30 year old Michael Jordan as a freshman isn’t his fault. Basketball just isn’t your thing man.
Fair enough. As someone without inside access at all, I don't think your view would be shared by the majority of the fanbase.
Only two players have averaged more points as a freshman: Eric Gordon and Mike Woodson. That’s it. No one else. None.
And he had a hurt shooting wrist most of the year and still gutted it out.
You’re an absolute clown.
