I am not a fan of the reversible jacket fan. If you root for IU basketball then.you should be a fan of the football team as well. It should be the other way as well if you are a ND football fan then you should be a fan of the basketball team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when they play scUM, O$U, and now SCum being in the B10. Cignetti IMO was a home run hire. Probably the best IU could attract all things considered. I think he can get them back in bowl conversations within 2 years. The new scheduling model with the realignment should help, too. Could give two shits about ND basketball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ND has taken some lumps but it’s not as bad as you make it. 6-4 in there last 10 bowl or CFP games including wins over #s 17, 19 (twice), and 24 in the country. They’re preseason #7 this year, so we’ll see… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 8 bowl wins-- Sun Bowlx2, Gator Bowl, Camping World Bowl, Citrus Bowl, Music City Bowl, Pinstripe bowl In those games they beat the prestigious Oregon State Beavers after OSUs coach left, Rutgers, LSU x2, So Carolina, Iowa St, Hawaii, and Miami The 12 losses-- an avg loss of 18 points.. 6 minutes ago, IowaHoosierFan said: Better to go to the dance and shit on the floor than not being invited at all.

I’m a Yankees fan (mom grew up in Jersey), but I’m an IU Basketball guy (Dad is from E-ville) so I’m not sure anybody can claim bandwagon. 😬 Also an Everton FC fan 😏.

Week 1 HS football games are usually about 90 degrees at kickoff.... had to endure a "raging diarrhea" in an "not air conditioned" bathroom about 8 years ago at Paoli.

I played baseball in college and Tri State was in our conference. Was NAIA back then. We used to put 20+ runs on them boys using wood bats. But then again, we’d did that to pretty much every team in conference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
