Just a press release for y'all. BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Indiana head football coach Bill Lynch will join college football coaches across the country to fight one opponent - Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, against Northwestern on Saturday, Oct.
I'm a bit late on this, I know, but here's the latest from the AD search update. The frontrunner, according to our friend Chris Korman at the Hoosier Scoop, is Bob De Carolis, the athletics director at Oregon State.
Tom Crean has received six verbal commitments from Class of 2009 prospects. At Friday night's Hoosier Hysteria festivities, Bobby Capobianco was there.
The Anderson University (Ind.) Ravens will help kick off the Tom Crean era on Nov. 7, as the Hoosiers will play their first of two exhibition games that night at 7 p.m.
Thanks to the economy, and the fact that IU has 20-something varsity sports, we couldn't fit all of our men's basketball coverage into Monday's paper.
Saturday's performance in Champaign was just plain awful. No offense. No defense. No nothing. I definitely had higher expectations because practice last week was unlike any other.
We will be joining our live blogging efforts with Mr. Chris Korman from the HoosierScoop. Feel free to chime in y'all.
Live blog to commence shortly before kickoff. For now, a little preview. Illinois (3-3, 1-2) The Illini fell to Minnesota on Saturday in their homecoming game.
There is plenty that happened last night at Hoosier Hysteria, (and be sure Dollinger, Osterman, Cohen and yours truly will have more 'official' coverage and stories,) but for now, here are a few small observations about the actual play of the team: * Verdell Jones stood out in the scrimmage.
To mix things up tonight, we're going to combine our live blogging efforts with Chris Korman of The Herald-Times and John Decker of Scout.com.
10:08 p.m. Shout out to my partner in crime this year Brandon Smith! Brandon is at the women's soccer game covering that right now.
Note: Here is our Hoosier Hysteria preview that ran in today's paper. Be sure to check out the basketblog later tonight and tomorrow for our coverage. Tom Crean isn't holding his first official practice at midnight, but you can expect the traditional madness. Despite being picked to finish last in the conference by "everyone and their brother," as Crean put it, the Hoosiers' first official practice will be a part of two national television networks' Midnight Madness coverage. "A true 'It's Indiana' moment for me is when ESPNU called me and wanted to be here as part of their kick-off for Midnight Madness," the first-year coach said. The other four schools on ESPNU's docket are regarded as some of the top teams in the country.
That's correct. By a happy mistake in counting (we're journalists, not math majors, don't hate us), We had far more "Meet the Hoosiers" installments than the four we originally advertised. So without further ado, and with greatest possible Basketblog fanfare, I bring you the last four episodes of Meet the Hoosiers.
Entering tonight's game with something to prove, the IU men's soccer team took care of No. 9 Notre Dame in astounding fashion with a 3-1 victory.
"Midnight Madness" events are a bit old school these days, but regardless of what time a major college basketball program tips off its first "practice," it is always a big draw for top recruits and potential targets.
On Wednesday, eight years ago to the day he was fired from Indiana University, Bob Knight appeared on the show "Mickey's Corner," a local interview program of WFYI in Indianapolis. At one point in the Q&A session, the show's moderator, Mickey Maurer, asked Knight what he thought of cheating in recruiting.
Hey folks, Yes, I'm aware that this is neither Inside Pitch nor the Basketblog. It is, in fact, our newest little addition to our online family -- Corner Kick, an IU soccer blog. It is here you will find information, posts and other such poppycock regarding both the IU men's and women's soccer teams.
Despite sitting out most of training camp, Eric Gordon scored a game-high 33 points in his second exhibition game to lead the Los Angeles Clippers to a comeback victory over the Sacramento Kings, 116-112. Gordon, who has been battling an ankle injury, hit the go-ahead free throws with 1:42 to put the Clippers ahead for good.
