by Kent Sterling Devin Robinson is 6’8″, skinny, can jump out of the gym, and if the highlight videos can be trusted is a hell of a good shooter. He announced today that he will attend Florida and play for Billy Donovan. Indiana fans should wish him well. Truth be told, I might make the […]
by Kent Sterling Thinking about basketball is something I can never been able to escape. Basketball is incredibly complicated and almost impossible to execute perfectly, and I love puzzles without a solution. The combination of athletic fluidity, potential for selfishness, and need for specific activity make coaching the game an act of near futility. Click […]
by Kent Sterling This is the week. This is THE week. The NFL hit the halfway mark of the regular season, the NBA is ready for opening night. The World Series is now a best two-of-three series. College football is heating up as teams are halfway through the conference schedule. The NHL is about ten […]
Indiana Basketball – Freshman Devin Davis Is Ready to Contribute to the Hoosiers
by Kent Sterling When he played at Warren Central High School in Indianapolis all of seven months ago, Devin Davis was often the biggest and strongest player on the floor.

Hoosier Hysteria – Assistant Steve McClain Talks About What He Expects from the Hoosiers
by Kent Sterling There is a pressing question for everyone associated with the 2013-2014 Indiana University basketball team, and that is “What are your expectations for this year’s team?” It’s kind of a silly question because there isn’t a sane coach or player associated with this or any other team who will quantify it with […]
by Kent Sterling If you want to know about how a kid who played for the Boo Williams summer program will fit into a college basketball program, there is no one better to ask than America’s most famous summer coach – Boo Williams himself. Click here to follow Kent on Twitter Williams coached the 6’3″ […]
by Kent Sterling The 2014 class is no longer vacant for Indiana. With two scholarships to give, Indiana was left hoping a couple of top recruits would pledge Indiana, and one of them has. Robert Johnson from Benedictine College Prep is 6’3″ and can flat out shoot, and can get to the bucket. Click here […]
by Kent Sterling Railing about the preseason schedule of whatever team you back is as much a part of the August and September lives of major conference basketball fans as watching them during November and December, but I’m not doing it. Criticizing a program for only sporadically challenging itself with NCAA Tournament bound competition is […]
