Congrats DJ! Great player and teammate it always seemed. Would be good to see him back visiting!

Had a good run. Deserved it. Hope to see him at AH.
Where was Go, Go, Go DJ that's, my DJ playing the last 14 years? Man when his shorts were hitting the floor at AH... that was my glory years. I HATE GETTING OLD

DJ was a stud. His Eric Gordon team had Banner potential. I'd kill to have a vacated banner sitting in Assembly Hall storage right now.

Or 5 white stars, and a shaded out/blacked out 6th star...how badass would that look on our bball jerseys?!

That team was so freaking good. Damnit!!!!!

They had the potential to be that good. They had some head scratcher performances, even before the KS bullchit ended everything. But man, when they were rolling, they were fun to watch. And KS is obviously the type of coach that gets his teams playing good ball in March. That cast, with Sampson's style, would have been a bitch in the NCAA's. Shows how important chemistry and stuff is in basketball. They were a really shitty basketball team after the scandal broke...with the exact same kids.

Totally agree, chemistry and buying into the coach is everything in college ball. That is why I hated Archie and Crean so much, so many players never were 100% bought in. Woodson last year had everyone playing better in March then we have seen in a long time, and it was a welcomed sight. I can only imagine that will be better this year.

I don’t think that March was evidence of buy in, but I do think that there was earlier evidence; The team easily could have folded and had an extended losing streak, which has been typical of our program lately. We fought in every game. In past seasons we packed it in.

the end of the season was, well odd.

We were getting shellacked by Michigan in the BTT, then a light went on and:
1. IU fans feel much better about how we did last year*
2. It’s a source of optimism for this year (specifically the light going on for X/TJD).

People were pretty satisfied with the season, but it could have easily gone another way. Had we not come back in that mi game, that’s it for the BTT tourney and we are NIT bound.

Instead we got another really satisfying W out of the deal (IL), and were rewarded with a play in game in front of all IU fans. Then of course came the west coast collapse.

it would be really interesting to see what posts would be like had we lost that Mi game. But, of course we didn’t.

Why all the hate on the pastor? You don’t have to agree with him but he doesn’t pick fights with anyone
There is this new invention called the ignore button. I’ve never seen a poster that has more people following him that all seem to get so worked up by what he says.

He is kind of a hypocrite in his beliefs, Hard to serve Trump and Christ he needs to pick one.
I could not vote for Hillary or Biden. Who am I going to vote for then? It was DJT. It doesn't mean I sign off on everything in Trump's life. I will say he has raised pretty decent kids. This doesn't mean they are perfect because whose kids are? I definitely would not want him dating my daughter or sister. But I didn't vote for him because of his morals. I voted for him because I saw that the country was going down the tubes and for four years we saw a great economy and Trump didn't start any wars.
 
WGAFF? It's not about you - nor is it about your daughter, your dead cat, your vacuous piety or any of the other inane goody-goody-gumdrops drivel you feel compelled to share.
Just sharing life. Korea was mentioned and it made me think of my daughter. Now my cat is dead but he was loved. So you ought to have a heart my friend.

that makes no sense, but a lot of people think like you, we may never overcome the great parent, but he didn't start any wars, and that Don Jr does seem like a fine young man. that was sarcasm he may actually be a bigger piece of shit than his old man.

You need a hug?
Creepy.
We have real problem posters on these forums. VPM isn't one of them Relax.
Very chill, just find that brand of stupid mentally nauseating and invariably turns threads to shyte.
Just sharing life.
Yours always sounds like a dumbed down version of the twilight zone.

Forum is about BB. Thread was about DJ White. Tons of forums elsewhere for your self-absorbed imemine crap.

The thing I remember the most about DJ White was his progression in learning and utilizing the fundamentals of post play. Most importantly he was great at rebounding the ball and offensively not bringing it down to his hips or even chest. He grabbed the ball and always kept it above his head for put backs. It eliminated a lot of guards from being able to swipe at it and minimized the space needed to put it back up. He played with fire amidst some hard times at IU but he never let us down.

You make more sense when you are wasted.
