I'm only 15 minutes in, but it's pretty good.
I didn't watch the "long" practice video, but started with the shorter recap and am listing to the CDD interview right now. Agree, good insight from folks who have actually seen our guys practicing. They seem convinced, shooting will not be a concern for this team. I thought they also were most surprised or impressed with Reed Bailey. Sounds intriguing.
PS, watched the men's portion of the long video and it is really good. Didn't see any practice action, but interviews with CDD, TD, RB, CE, and TC and LW together. Enjoyed them all. Beyond individual abilities, it feels like CDD valued good guys and team first guys. TC did FFA? and competed to win! That kid's personality impresses me. As does CE. I think our on the ball D is going to improve tremendously. I can get sucked in, but really like what I'm hearing.
Field Of 68 With IU Basketball - Hoosier Huddle
This was fun...well done by Goodman and Dauster. This will only go so far if Indiana isn't playing well but I'm telling ya, this team is really likable. There are some guys that are very, very easy to root for.
@tjinman1987 Yep. Here is an example. This is pretty amazing.

@tammany The article I linked was a recap along with notable quotes from the podcast...that was one of the things I highlighted.
My favorite part, beyond the obvious generosity of Lamar Wilkerson, was that Lamar Wilkerson gave that donation and didn't post about it on X or Instagram or TikTok or whatever. He didn't want a bunch of credit for it. We didn't know about it at all until Jeff Goodman brought it up and even then, Lamar Wilkerson did not want to spend much time taking credit for it and talking about it. To me, all of it says a lot of great things about Lamar Wilkerson's character.
@tammany No apology needed at all...I agreed with you and just wanted to point out my favorite part of that particular note. Thanks for pointing it out!
@tjinman1987 agreed - along with this coaching staff. Not saying we are back , but having guy I can root for and will play hard is a good start!
Then, as I e said many times, having coaches that are not weirdos, just normal dudes, is refreshing.
amd our strength coach,per the story o read, isn’t gonna be doing stupid hype shit or training body builders I’m excited
@ge-off Yeah, that body builder stuff grew old in a hurry. Show the results where it translated to on court performance. Were the "buffer" Hoosiers getting more rebounds, shooting a higher percentage of free throws, hitting 3's with more accuracy or playing with improved defense?
