Is there any way we could get Howland as the lead recruiter on Derrick Brown when he visits for the Egg Bowl?? :)

And pulling support probably did quicken the exit of Ray and entrance of Coach Howland. Which I for one is grateful.( I kept my seats, but didn't attend very many games.)

I wouldn't call them a middle-of-the-pack B1G program. They haven't been, and probably won't ever again be, Indiana but I would still call them a top program; maybe not among the truly elite anymore, but the next step down. The only Big Ten programs I would say are clearly better as programs right now are Wisconsin and Michigan State. And that could change depending on coaches. Wisconsin may take a dip without Ryan, and Michigan State will find it very hard to maintain without Izzo. Ohio State has had a lot of success under Matta, obviously more than Indiana during that span, but it's pretty much all due to him. If both jobs were open, you'd have a tough time ranking OSU higher than Indiana.Quote:

Crean is a good coach, but I wouldn't call him a great one...and after it took 4 years to build them back after the mess Sampson left, he now has a Big Ten title, two Sweet 16s, and he's set up for a very good year this year as well.
Again, they're not truly Indiana anymore, but they could still get back to the top relatively easily with the right hire. I would compare them to UCLA pre-Howland or to Michigan football pre-Harbaugh.
I watched a video yesterday of Howland throwing his jacket in the stands during a game..it was great!Quote:

Indiana and Michigan are in that group based on their history. I don't think Indiana has done anything recently that gives them the right to complain about losing players to MSU though. Over the past couple of decades they haven't been much different from us at all. Today, I think we are in a much better position and the players can see that.
And, the late Ken Jackson.Quote:

Which pretty much puts Indiana as a middle-tier B1G school. You're drunk if you think Ohio State and IU are even the last 15 years.
Well, it's about like us talking about baseball history, honestly. We view our baseball program as still clearly being superior to many with similar or even better recent success than us.Quote:
