IU fans...

It's been a frustrating season so far. When your kid/grandkid isn't getting a chance during a frustrating season it's even harder to stomach.
My son, who ended-up playing mid-major D1, was on an AAU team coached by a dad with twins on the team as well as three other players from their HS. It was a good team and my son benefited a lot, but he sat the bench when the twins played a lot when we had a solid lead. Just give him a chance. If he fails, so be it, but let's see if he fails!! My thoughts during the season.

Duncomb has gotten major run during cupcake season, both during blowouts and for the two or three games when TJD was sidelined with back issues. He did well during that run, which makes it even harder for Nana to stomach him not getting run now.

The problem with Duncomb's status; he won't do a thing to fix Indiana's current horrendous perimeter defense.

Yep - and yep
 
I find your assumptions about elementary Ed teachers and their math skills rather offensive. I have an elementary education degree from Purdue with a secondary math education dual major. I took. 4 semesters of calculus at Purdue starting with the advanced 163-164 courses instead of the normal 161-162 courses engineering students completed. A lot has changed In elementary schools in the past 40 years. I don’t believe if you are not a teacher you should be drawing conclusions about our profession!
 
That's good to hear!
I suspect that continual development until commonly used will be voice to text (outdating typing) and then brain activity and thought through sensors outdating (voice to text). No how do they fix those with little brain activity? ;)

You don't think parents can draw conclusions? So you are offended. Get over it. Or fix it. If you aren't paying attention to current trends in education, then you being offended by what was said is ignorance on your part. And thus, the problem.

There are studies showing the benefits of handwriting and what it triggers within your brain. Worked at a company who made us hand write and draw slides before making them on a computer. The creative side of your brain doesn’t activate the same way when trying to do it on a computer first. Still do it today because I get brain freeze if I try and do it straight on the computer.
Here is a person you might add? Every now and then he will provide some interesting data https://twitter.com/JeremyTate41
