That is all so cute. Remember, when Kentucky gets the death penalty from Cal's cheating ass while he is leaving town, remember this day. IU Nation will tell you to rot in hell and see if Gonzaga will put you on the schedule as a friendly gesture.

Again this is college basketball. Not neutral site horseshit $$$. If Cal gets his way, the entire first 3 months of college basketball will be worthless to watch with neutral site games and no true fan base to speak of at said games except for alumni and corporate nonsense.

So be it.

go make another display celebrating your landmark sweet 16 appearance...

if you'd ever gone to one of the neutral site games you wouldn't be denegrating it....or maybe you would; there's no accounting for stupid

3 years ago IU fans wanted the series to end.
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

I don't know about majority or direct quotes, but this IU fan doesn't want the series to end.

God help you all if Teflon Cal gets busted at UK because the wrath of the entire nation, not just IU fans, will be upon thee with great vengenance and furious anger.

Should be a riot to watch the Insignificant U fans when Calipari someday retires from coaching at Kentucky. Common knowledge his best bud is Tom Crean and IMO, Cal will recomment to the UKAA to hire Crean as his replacement....and there's no doubt which school Crean would pick. :lol:

If and When that day comes, BRM, I will eat said shit with a fork and not complain. But, UNTIL that day comes, either shut the fuck up about it or eat same shit with a smile on your face. Because you are praying for a possibility and denying the reality of the here and now. Take a deep breath and swallow the salty taste of No. 8...and know that UK spanked IU ass on the way.

Read the Kentucky and Indiana boards. Talk about a nasty divorce, two skunks in a pissin' contest.

I don't want the series to end, even if Indiana were to start kicking our asses

but either you want to play or you don't, and if you aren't willing to compromise on a one sided deal still in your favor, then don't talk shit about the other team.

Never understood the whole Indiana thing. They had a nice 11 year run in the mid 70s & 80s with 3 National Championships under a legendary yet whackjob of a coach. That was 25 years ago. It's not like Indiana has a sustained tradition of championship basketball. Their fans remind me of Reds fans born in the 50s. "Oh yeah! We had the Big Red Machine! Remember Dan Driessen?"

Shut the fuck up already. And lose those stupid warmup pants.

The Reds fans born in the 60's arent any better

I could understand that comment if it came from a Pirates or Dodger fan. No so much from an Astro fan though.

Hey now, I'm a Reds fan born in the fifties! Indiana basketball=ND football. One big difference though, Indiana has a good future and its fans are hopeful. ND football fans are losing hope and the future is bleak.

Anthony Bennett dropped Florida today over UNLV and Oregon.

A few weeks ago Bennett was supposedly a lock for Florida.

Fsu rattling its sabre about leaving the ACC if it doesnt get more of the revenue pie:

from the article:

"And let's face it, FSU is the most important member when it comes to the ACC's current $1.86 billion television deal."

this is why Indiana shot themselves in the foot passing up a nationally televised game in their own state, giving up $$$ and recruiting options.
