  1. :roll: who won a national title and was national player of the year again? IU homer much? You misunderstand me. I was talking about their pro potential. Zeller has almost no chance to be close to as good as Hansborough was in college. But Hansborough is an unorthodox player who is having to unlearn parts of his game in order to get better in the NBA. It's kind of like Tebow, but Hansborough doesn't have the problem of playing the most important position in the sport like Tebow does. Zeller is a much more traditional type of player who has higher upside than Hansborough, but could struggle to make any kind of dent in the NBA if he does not develop properly. My apologies, I don't like Zellers game for the next level either tho. He was dominated head to head by Leonard until the refs took over. I think he's gonna struggle with the jump in athletes.
  2. Man Ogelsby has some game. Bet he's glad he's not sitting behind DJ Richardson. He was dangerously close to that happening.
  3. New drinking game. Every time Meyers Leonard is open and an Illinois guard misses him take a shot. You'd die about 5 minutes into the game.
  4. Richardson hasn't improved at all in 3 years.
  5. Oh man we forgot we have the best player in the Big Ten again. Hopefully our coach reminds them.
  6. Is that a fact? Leonard' leaving for certain? His home life is gonna make it tough for him to come back. What's up with his home life? I missed that story. Father died when he was young, mother has back problems that stops her from working. She needs surgery she can't afford.
  7. You're gonna win by 5 plus.
  8. Makes sense Bruce is the Sam of coaching. Clearly overmatched.
  9. Zeller is a four year Hansborough type. There's not much more to max out. He's going nowhere. Haha, you're joking.... Right? I can see him staying, but he doesn't have to. Indiana fans would be shocked if Zeller left. His family places such a strong emphasis on education. It's seen as he has almost no chance to leave after this year, a small but plausible chance after year two, a pretty good chance after year 3, and it wouldn't be shocking if he stays all 4. But having watched both of them this year, he's nothing like Hansborough. Hansborough uses his toughness and his unorthodox style to draw fouls along with a decent 15 foot jumper. But Hansborough has no idea how to pass the ball or play defense. Zeller's a much more skilled big man who needs to get stronger and develop a jump shot, but already has a much better basketball sense than Hansborough will ever have. :roll: who won a national title and was national player of the year again?

  10. Sam starting over Tracey. :banghead:

  13. You're playing awful, were playing well. You are only down eleven. This isn't over.
  14. Is Gatens a senior?
  15. Good lord Matt Gatens is on fire.
  16. Nice sequence Meyers, you're almost good enough to start :roll:
  17. 3. No, 2. BTT is March 8-11 He's an Illinois fan, our selection show might be later. When does the CBI pick?
  18. We aren't starting our lottery pick, makes sense. Thank god the weber era is almost over.
  19. You almost hired him. Allegedly. And wtf man? We've suffered enough.
  20. In their defense this state has nothing else to brag about.
  21. Phog magic. I don't get how Kansas fans don't see what goes on there.
  22. I gotta be honest I dislike a lot of how the games are refereed at this point. I think too many times the refs try and become the show themselves with huge, theatrical calls(Ed Hightower). Bills touched on it a bit today on game day. I really think they need to have a better system set up to govern the officials.
  23. Best team ever? Marcus Fizer laughs at you. Not saying it'll happen but they will have the potential to be that good. Man I don't know, that Fizer team was the second best team in America that year(IMO). The committee screwed them. True, I wasn't an Iowa State fan back then so maybe my prediction is off. I'm just saying next years team is going to be really good. Yeah they should be, barring White leaving early they should be top 15ish.
