Are there security cameras constantly watching the crowd? If there are, we should be able to find the people in question.

Tre had one bad month, likely due to his illness and doghouse stuff. But the last 3 weeks he is looking great, and if he continues to nail that corner 3 he makes te team so much better.

Bottom line is I hope he finishes strong and returns next year. Not sure he wants to bounce around every year. A core of Boswell, Morez, Tomi, and Tre would be pretty good. Would think you want a stud big SG in the mold of Tonje. With development, can that player be Tre? With Ty playing the 3? Ty was the PG for an elite 8 team.

I was right there with you brother! My trip overall was fantastic! But those 3 hours were BRUTAL! It was great to finally see a game in MSG. It is truly a sports shrine! I hope to get to another game there soon. I'd love to see us schedule a game there every other year or so. Is a B1G tournament scheduled to be there in the near future?

I doubt it, nor in D.C., though I'd selfishly love it given it's my home. My guess is that the conference will hold it (long before either of those) in Vegas or L.A. at some point soon for our new west coast sibs.

Its natural home is in Indy and I hope to make the trip soon.

As for MSG, given the stature of the program at this time, I'd bet we're back there soon for a November tourney or a one-off in Jan/Feb. IMO, one of the world's greatest venues. Seeing half of it painted orange a couple weekends ago, and what that indicates about the fervor of our fan base, did my heart good.

For a conference spread coast to coast with its roots in the Midwest, the only two really logical places for the BTT are Indy and Chicago. However, as we saw last year with Minneapolis and will see in future years, it’s going to be spread around quite a bit. I’d say any NBA-style arena in the B1G footprint will be a candidate and bid for it.

For like the first 1/3 or 1/4 of the season.

I'm sorry. Those guys are a riot. I'm there for the ridiculous banter with college basketball sprinkled in.

That's fair. I watched them a lot last season, and get the part about enjoying banter, but...over time I started to feel like their content was generated for clicks, and not really what they genuinely thought...or their thoughts were too inconsistent. I'm not hating on them, as they gotta make money, but...they are very good at generating clicks and views. Their content just isn't for me anymore.

One more fun thing on this…

The “Old Gold Show” guys who cover Purdue for Field of 68.. who put their nose up in the air at everyone especially us last season, who disrespected TSJ’s name last year & called him slurs… haven’t posted a podcast since this Purdue cold streak has started… showing their true colors.

F*** em. Soft. ILL

Don’t see white (current or developing) filling the SG role.
