Not enough, but it's there.

The other day when we stopped by their place she says that he is seriously considering transferring. Any further than that, she doesn't know. We tried to ask her about whether or not it would depend on the new coach was or whatever but she doesn't know, but said he has been talking about it.

How stupid would this kid be to abandon a starting spot after such marked improvement this year? As far as the source, I don't know the girl all too well, just thought I would put it out there for discussion.

my favorite game that season came against then-#5 missouri. IU led 58-48 with 4 minutes left and lost 63-58. that game is a perfect example of the debacle that was that season.

It'll happen.

So I was pretty pleased with the D.

I was also pleased to see Ellis seeming to have his head in the game and playing well. He was huge for the defense last night: http://statlernwaldorfarena.blogspot.com/2008/0…

Also, did you notice how much PINE TIME that EJ got last night? He made a HORRIBLE pass that caused an over-n-back call and was immediately jerked for the bench! WHERE THE HELL HAS THAT BEEN ALL YEAR???

Other than shooting free throws, which I can't remember the last time he did that…when has he taken a shot between 7 and 18 feet?

He played great.

However, it was truly DJ's night, even though he did seem a bit soft. 5 boards isn't his best night.

Charlie Miller and his big ears….you coulda been a contender!

He's come through before, so let's hope it happens again if we need.

Gordon's shooting woes are perplexing to say the least. I have less confidence in him as the season has progressed. At least he still finds a way to get to the strip and has worked on that midrange game a little it seems.

And the Dad would have to answer, thats DJ White, they hung that up there, well, because he went through hell for this team and was still smiling at the end, which in the end isn't why guys get their jerseys retired, and were certainly not UNC when it comes to that crap. Great career DJ, enjoy the applause when you come back to B-town, you defiantly shot up to the top 3 of my list of favorite Hoosier players after this season.

His % is disappointing, but he does have good shot selection.
