by Kyle Miller Is it bad to consider the weekend not over until after Monday Night Football? Since my weekend is dominated by my addiction to fantasy football, I see nothing wrong with a three day weekend, every weekend. What a great time of the year. College basketball is heating up as conference play approaches, [...]
by Kent Sterling It’s been a long time since Indiana posted anything resembling a gaudy record. The 107-50 blowout win today over Howard isn’t worth raising a banner, but the 11-0 record for a team that had been 28-66 the previous three seasons shows the program has turned a corner. Or has it? The schedule [...]
by Kent Sterling Indiana Basketball beat their neighbor to the south 73-72. You know, the one that keeps kids around for nine months and turns them loose to the NBA. Yeah, those guys in blue and white. This is THE win that fans in Bloomington have waited for since disgraced former coach ran the SS [...]
by Kent Sterling [ed. note: With the recent firings of Syracuse basketball assistant Bernie Fine and Penn State legend Joe Paterno associated with alleged child molestation charges, it's hard to gin up a lot of moral outrage against Kentucky coach John Calipari.

Indiana basketball reporters, writers and even long-time play-by-play broadcaster Don Fischer had something to say on the matter. Fischer on 1070 The Fan [...]

The minute the Cardinals won Game Seven of the World Series, talk began to percolate about whether Albert Pujols would come back to the team. Then Tony LaRussa retired, and the Cubs hired Theo. [...]
by John Miller The Indiana Hoosiers (1-2, 0-0) are heading out of state for the first time this season to battle the North Texas Mean Green (0-3, 0-1) at the new Apogee Stadium. Indiana is coming off their first win of the Kevin Wilson era and is looking to build momentum heading into conference play next week. The Hoosier offense really clicked last [...]
by John Miller The Hoosiers (0-2, 0-0) look to recover from last week’s heartbreaking loss to Virginia by welcoming FCS opponent South Carolina State (1-1) to The Rock. Indiana showed great determination and no quit against Virginia by scoring 28 unanswered points to take an eight point lead late into the game. Unfortunately, as Hoosier [...]
by Kyle Miller Let’s just be honest, Indiana is a basketball school, no matter how bad things may seem at Assembly Hall. I played one football season when I was in seventh grade, whereas I played basketball for 14 years. If I know anything about something, it’s basketball. As of today, the number one 2012 basketball [...]
by Kyle Miller U.S. News released its national college rankings Monday and most notably Indiana University finished 13 spots behind Purdue University. Harvard and Princeton tied for the number one spot followed by Yale and Columbia, respectively.
