Quick note and question

Ed,

I just wanted to touch base and make sure that you realized that Dayton will be without their starting center this year? Since you and Ken are such avid supporters of the Hoosiers I always try to tune in to your web-cast and this week I kept expecting you guys to mention the story that broke on Wednesday about the Flyers Matt Kavanaugh being suspended for the season. I think they will really miss his huge 9 points per game and I guess Coach Miller will have to ask Oliver (4 pts game) and Gavrilovic (4 pts game) to step up this year. It's funny, not only did you guys not mention it but I don't honestly think I saw it on any sportscast. I guess when you are a below average mid-major, losing your starting center isn't that news worthy anyway....Well that's all I have got for now and keep up the good work!

Thanks,
I.U Hoops Expert / aka Dick


P.S
When did Halloween move to October 25th? Just askin'.....

Two Indiana Players Banned 9 Games...

"The NCAA said in a statement Tuesday night both players were qualified to receive the benefits from the nonprofit organization Adams used to help international players obtain travel documents and cover travel costs to the U.S. The problem was that Adams also was considered an Indiana booster because he donated $185 to the Varsity Club from 1986-92, and boosters cannot provide benefits to players."

I am guessing that "Buckeyes Fan" didn't take the time to read the entire article... If somebody donating $185 over a 6 year period makes you a booster than I should have ownership in United Way by now. Go Hoosiers!!

Ed,
Just want to send a quick message saying "thank you" to all the loyal IU fans for your kind emails. I also wanted to make sure that you saw the ESPN College Hoops Tip-Off special edition, I noticed you failed to mention it during your broadcast last night. I am always here to help!
