Indianapolis Colts continue to rebuild today in dress rehearsal – in Chris Ballard we trust?
August 25, 2018

When Chris Ballard took over as general manager of the Indianapolis Colts, he said the roster would be rebuilt through the draft. He wasn’t kidding. It’s tough to go from where the Colts were to becoming a Super Bowl champion. When the Colts were rolling in the 2000s, they had four players on the offensive […]

As a parent, I would bring my son home NOW from Maryland’s football program
August 14, 2018

My son played college basketball, and there wasn’t a day while he was at Loyola of Chicago that I didn’t hope coaches and trainers were intently looking after his well being. Health is everything, and I know coaches can be blinded by the need to win. I didn’t care much about winning – I just […]

Elam Ending in the TBT is just the beginning for a great change to end of basketball games
July 23, 2018

Which team wins The Basketball Tournament is of no consequence to few – other than those competing for the $2,000,000 first prize. But I sat and watched three complete TBT games yesterday featuring alums of Ohio State, current members of the Fort Wayne Mad Ants, and other teams featuring a hodge lodge of former college players […]

Logic tells us Kevin Pritchard is busy finding an upgrade at the three for the Pacers – if he hasn’t already
July 2, 2018

Pacers president Kevin Pritchard will utilize cap space to execute a trade that will bring a starting small forward to the team. I believe this because Pritchard used every media opportunity I witnessed or hosted to extoll the virtues of an uneven trade as the best path to bring improvement to a team that is now much closer […]

Curtis Jones leaves Indiana Basketball program – best for both Jones & Hoosiers?
December 4, 2017

Coaching changes bring a change of culture. Culture change brings adversity. Adversity brings roster changes. Such is the cycle of life in college basketball. Curtis Jones was recruited to Indiana by Tom Crean, and he played his freshman season for the former coach. When Archie Miller replaced Crean, it became clear very quickly that the […]

Grant Gelon is upset he is no longer a Hoosier, but the anger is misplaced
August 22, 2017

“We don’t see you fitting into our plans here.” That’s what IU basketball coach Archie Miller told Grant Gelon a few months ago, according to the NW Indiana Times. It was an honest, direct, and unpleasant assessment to hear. Gelon was unhappy at that moment with Miller, and remains so. Indiana offered to make good […]

Eight reasons for Paul George to choose to stay in Indy with Pacers rather than to bounce to LA
May 22, 2017

Paul George has a decision to make. Stay in Indianapolis to continue to earn sick cash with the Pacers or bounce to Los Angeles, Miami, or another NBA outpost for slightly less. The Pacers have an opportunity to benefit regardless of what George believes is best. If George wants out, adios muchacho! Don’t let the […]

Fred Glass interview revealed some things about IU hoops and class in leadership
April 1, 2017

Firing someone is never easy. Whether done for financial or qualitative reasons, making the call to fundamentally change the life of a person in your charge – and his or her family – is tough. It’s not just hard because of the upheaval it causes the person being told to scram. Termination is the final […]
