Bob Knight is none too pleased with Dickie V.

Monday, March 17th, 2008

It’s one thing to relentlessly rant during an IU game about how Indiana should honor Bob Knight by renaming Assembly Hall after the Hall of Fame coach. It makes sense (but to be honest, since I’ve heard it about a million times, it’s getting annoying at this point). It’s another thing to campaign for Knight […]

The Morning After: Michigan State

Sunday, February 17th, 2008

We’ve all been guilty of it. We are finished with Kelvin Sampson, done, finito, that’s it. As you read this, Sampson could win the Big Ten, blow out Purdue by 40, capture a national title, and cure lupus (does lupus have a cure already?) and everyone would still monolithically demand Sampson’s head on a silver […]

“Eric Gordon, I think could be the guy on the perimeter like Kevin Durant. I think he’s going […]

The Hoosiers are awesome, baby!

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

The preseason hoops polls are slowly starting to trickle out and today we got Dick Vitale’s top 40 teams. Using his revolutionary “Vitale Bald Dome Index” formula, also known as the VBDI, Dickie V has the Hoosiers pegged as the No. 8 team in the land.
8. Indiana: Kelvin Sampson is thrilled to have diaper dandy […]

D.J. White is some sort of fancy car, I think

Friday, July 27th, 2007

As we’ve said before, it’s never too early to preview the college basketball season, especially not for someone as, well, enthusiastic as Dick Vitale. Which is why Vitale has already posted his All Rolls-Royce Team for 2007 (the equivalent, I assume, to an All-Star team), a list divided into five different squads, one of which […]
