Welcome to Colts season. Training camp begins in two weeks at Anderson University and the Pacers free agent frenzy has run it’s course, so this is the time Indianapolis nimbly shifts gears into talking about the pivotal 2016 season that lies ahead. It doesn’t take long to pivot to the NFL once the NBA Finals end […]
What a year of hoops action Indiana basketball fans have to look forward to. So much potential for thrills and heartbreak with every shot, pass, and recruiting visit. This is why we love basketball – virtually anything can happen, and it likely will over the next 10 months. Some of the biggest stories in Indiana that […]
Everything about the Indianapolis Motor Speedway makes imperfect sense. The 100th running of the Indianapolis 500 is six days away, and while the race will be the star – as it always is – the traditions that have been built over the previous 99 Greatest Spectacles in Racing are a huge part of the fabric […]
I found myself alone yesterday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Jonathan Byrd Racing’s garage with four fully functional and (one would assume) fueled IndyCars. The track was empty because of the rain that washed out practice, but by the time my radio show ended, the grounds were dry. It occurred to me that I had […]
Meet the new boss – same as the old boss. Nate McMillan will become the next head coach of the Indiana Pacers as soon as the mundane dickering over terms and the insertion of the ubiquitous force majure clause is inserted in the contract. For a franchise that required change, according to team president Larry […]
I like Frank Vogel. You do too. He’s a really good guy and coach who never put his self-interest ahead of the Indiana Pacers. That doesn’t mean he is the absolute best candidate to lead the Pacers in 2016-2017 and beyond, but it doesn’t mean he isn’t either. There is a chance that Bird hires […]
Todd Jadlow played basketball at Indiana University from 1985-1989, and lived a life of privilege during a long professional career overseas. Then, reality came calling as it often does. Instead of answering that call with purpose and resolve, Jadlow ran to a bar and stayed there. As he told us in a 42-minute interview on my […]
These are interesting times for Indiana sports fans. Mediocrity is everywhere, but all that may be about to change. Professional teams boast potentially transcendent talent that are capable of championship level play, and the college football and basketball teams are arching toward meaningful improvement. I’m normally a cynical critic of management and mediocrity, but there […]
UConn kept its promise by winning its fourth straight National Championship last night at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Dominance is tough to achieve. It requires discipline and leadership toward goals that are tied to process rather than result. Geno Auriemma is the coach of this collection of great basketball players, including the peerless Breanna Stewart, who […]
Breakfast with Kent – Adam’s back but Bjoern gone; Big 10 Tourney starts today – kind of
