Yep, can't stand IU, but don't like to see any player get hurt.

Two different knee injuries .............that ain't cool. I truly wish him a speedy recovery.

Sorry to hear of this....he's already had to deal with a significant injury from high school...just seems like these are happening more and more lately. Regardless, I wish him the best for a full recovery.

His father who was an absolute stud in high school had many problems when he got to Kentucky and was never the same. For Jr it surely is too bad

Two things that need to be said here:

1. All of us regret the injury to Blackmon and send our best wishes to him for a speedy and full recovery.

2. To the IU fans who made light of and poked fun at Hummel's injury at the time of occurrence and even after: karma is a bitch.

Too bad for him, but it will make their underachieving a little easier to take for the fans.

I actually think they play better without him since his defense is so poor.

Don't rule out IU. They have a favorable schedule. They only play Michigan state, Maryland and Purdue once. And the only road game of those 3 is the MSU game.

Feel sorry for the player, could care less about iu other than they'll probably lose more games.
POTFH.
