Purdue picked to win Big Ten

If you look at financials for indiana and Purdue they are comparable. Iu recently has had some boosts from the school foundation.

If you are talking NIL I agree indiana has done well there, how much better than Purdue is unknown. They spend their money differently. Edey probably made more on NIL than anyone at iu this year or last. I think Braden’s doing just fine as well. Let’s put it this way purdue has never lost a player on their roster due to nil.

It is not a top 5 brand, that is laughable. No way are they higher than duke, UNC, Kansas, Kentucky, and ucla. I’m sure you can find some homers online that would dispute that but I agree historically they would be in the secondary group of Michigan, Arizona, msu, gonzaga, Cuse, UConn.

I also think you are overstating the value of a “brand”. Cuse, Louisville, and Georgetown have tremendous brands and have been largely irrelevant over last 8-10 years.

Indiana, Louisville, Kentucky, Kansas, North Carolina, Duke, UConn are the biggest brands of college basketball. Louisville has also brought in the most revenue in college basketball and top profits ever since the Yum! Was built. Indiana was also named the most valuable college basketball program by Forbes just a couple years ago.

Yeah, if you're going to do that you better run the ball like army and navy.

Speaking of: I actually give Walters some credit for reviving the run game. That always seemed like an afterthought under Brohm. Of course, you don't have much of a choice when the passing game struggles to complete throws longer than 10 yards.

Problem is, 1 negative play or penalty is a drive killer. And we had those, or a turnover, on EVERY drive.

It means Colvin still has no idea where to be on D. Why do you need a second ball handler when you have the best PG in the conference and possibly the country, and want to play 5 out with 4 shooters surrounding him?

Because humans get tired when they work too hard. As noted: with Lance gone, guarding the quick pg's in on Braden for now.
Don't want the driver of the offense getting worn down when he has to guard an elite scorer.

Anybody notice this rotten trick at the end of the ducks-bucks game on Saturday? Not knowing the rule, I expected them to put some time back on the clock.

NCAA closes loophole on Ducks' 12-man penalty

The NCAA is closing the loophole used by Oregon to shave time off the game clock at the end of Saturday's win over Ohio State, when the Ducks intentionally used 12 players on defense.

Belichick used to do things like this all the time, committing penalties in situations where the clock would start up again after the penalty was walked off again, but the down stayed the same. It's beautiful when you're trying to run out the clock. I think they closed that loophole off too.

But back to O$U, they cost themselves plenty in clock management. They should have known, for example, that after the OPI, the clock would run again because the play that was penalized ended with a completed catch on the field of play. Then they didn't understand why the clock didn't stop with 1 second left. Well you still have to call the timeout, not just get down when it's not a first.

The money IU makes says otherwise. They are still one of the Top 5 brands in college basketball. They just have to finally put it out on the court again for once. Haven't been #1 since Zeller was in town and that was over 10 years ago.

Offensively they’ve had four games with 124 yards of passing or less. In today’s era of modern day football, that’s inept.

Don't fear them but.....

Pardon all J6ers.

Get an AG that will go after his enemies. States, media, members of congress. Democrats. You know, the "enemy from within".

Withhold aid from Ukraine to try and force them into a deal.

Withdraw from NATO.

Reinstate schedule F and install loyalists throughout the government.

Appointment incompetent foreign policy staff based on loyalty.

Find loyalist generals that will follow his domestic orders. Like shooting protesters. This is the one I fear.

More massive tax cuts for his buddies, blowing up the debt.

Herding non citizens into camps for deportation. They will not all go peacefully. Has he thought about that?

Lower or dismantle environmental regulations because he loves saying drill baby drill.

Those almost all seem like solid policies.
I especially like your comments on policy of installing "Loyalists". I mean, who wouldn't want to work with people who are like-minded. Are you upset he won't have a DEI policy for his administration?

As for the herding of illegals: I have a good friend who is senior level in customs/immigration. He has to go to CA next week for 2 months to deal with the border crisis. He said that the Harris/Biden immigration policies have been a complete disaster. The % of illegals in the catch n release program who DON"T return for their scheduled immigration hearing is over 85%.
