It’s crunch time in the race for the Big Ten regular season title and three teams have separated themselves from the pack. Based on difficulty of schedule, Bo Ryan and Wisconsin appear to be the favorite. Purdue has a road ...

Devin Ebanks to Memphis?

  • Ryan Corazza 02/27/2008 4:43 pm  
 

According to Rick Bozich of the Louisville Courier-Journal it’s looking like a distinct possibility. Remember, it’s been reported that Devin Ebanks, IU’s top recruit next year via New York, has an out clause in his LOI that states he can ...

The Morning After: Ohio State v.2.0

  • Eamonn Brennan 02/27/2008 11:46 am  
 

Ugh. Whatever that was last night, it was not pretty to watch. Eric Gordon’s game was way off, D.J. White had his share of struggles, and the Hoosiers oftentimes looked discombobulated and confused. Also, for whatever reason — partially because ...

Is Tony Bennett a viable candidate for IU?

  • Alex Bozich 02/26/2008 12:42 pm

Dan Dakich on 670 the Score

  • Alex Bozich 02/25/2008 4:31 pm  
 

Interim head coach Dan Dakich was on the Mike North Show this morning on 670 The Score in Chicago. North is the quintessential faux-chicago meat head. Normally, I wouldn’t ever knowingly subject you to this guy, but this is a ...

The Morning After: Northwestern

Ebanks still a Hoosier – for now

  • Alex Bozich 02/23/2008 12:13 pm
