Biggest Mr. Basketball Indiana flop ever. At least Tommy Coverdale played with some heart and intensity.

i have yet to read any of the linked articles and i am pretty clueless about the whole situation (there's a reason for that…no one is giving any details). but i would like to say that the slamming of ratliff may be a little early. for all we know (family issues) could mean something very devastating is happening in his life…and i would hate to be the one to eat my words under such circumstances. i will not play judge…at least not at this time.

what a waste.

the 2004 recruiting class:
vaden – transfer
ratliff – washout
hardy – football
steijn – transfer
DJ – all-big ten, big ten POY, possible all-american

i guess one out of five ain't bad…

Hey all,

I just posted on the latest violations debacle, if we want to all cry there together. Ugh.

Tim…the article says we'll address the allegations tomorrow. I'm not sure what they'll do to the team and to the rest of the season…but I have a feeling that we might want to go ahead and bend over…even if we don't impose sanctions on ourselves not allowing us to go to the tournament, this will be a major distraction, even if Sampson isn't canned right away.

AJ is as Tiger Woods would say “Ranger Rick.” He always looked phenominal in practices and seeing him in pick up games. He obviously has the skills and talent to play at a high level. For years he has been arguably the most athletic player on the team. Unfortunately non of his talents ever came to fruition on the court. His vaunted defense skills turned to sluggish hand checking which usually turned into 3 fouls in 10 minutes and he was out. And for such quickness and a great vertical leap he always would settle for jump shots and would never attack the rim. Lets be honest here, Mike Davis was not a “bad” recruiter…he just couldn't develop talent whatsoever. Being a loyal IU fan its hard for me to admit it but for years I have been calling IU the Bermuda Triangle of Talent….it comes in…doesnt come out. I would be very impressed with anyone that could name more than two players that left IU better basketball players than when they came in the last 5-7 years…..and AJ is just another player than falls into that group…..sad.
