    WGN Reporting - settlements for athletes hazed

    Hasn’t it been understood that Fitz wanted to return to coaching only after this was resolved?

    WGN Reporting - settlements for athletes hazed

    To me, it means 1. that Dan Webb writes a lot of words, and 2. that the university is paying the players for their suffering, therefore setting the stage for 3. Fitz to be held accountable for the players’ acknowledged suffering My read of the Fitz contract is that this actually wouldn’t...

    Fitz Suing NU Trial

    [REDACTED] I think they’ll settle for something close to Fritz’s original contract value. The contract just looks like this wasn’t covered under ‘for cause’. I doubt we’ll ever know the number.

    Good thread.

    Been thinking this for the last week or so .....

    He did not take a shot in December or January. Keeping Keenan on the bench — unless there was an injury that was unreported — is CCC’s largest mistake this year. Hunger has frequently hurt NU by looking for his shot and being slow on defense. Keenan basically has the exact same game as...

    I don’t think there is. I think there’s just random appreciation for CBC, who did not recruit Keenan Fitzmorris.

    Been thinking this for the last week or so .....

    The talent had stopped coming, tho. And he did get hamstrung by, as I recall, a two-year extension. In consecutive years, he got Coble-Thompson-Shurna-Crawford. Four legendary Cats, one per season. Cobb had a checkered career and then didn’t live up to expectations as the only guy in his...

    Honest goals

    It’s not fun to be losing, but it’s fun to see the silhouette of an interesting team next year. Running the table at home is a possibility. Playing at Minnesota is a downer. Maryland will have something to play for in the regular season finale. Minnesota is headed into their two West Coast...

    +/- for the Indictment of Indiana

    Agree generally, tho the pissing was figurative. Neither Boo nor CCC believed Boo was The Dude until late February that season. And then we got two seasons of glorious dudeliness.

    Totally OT: Herbstreit

    This is correct, though lots of people imagined that Alabama (or South Carolina) wouldn’t have been, because of the teams that beat them this year. Indiana was really, really good, even if they weren’t good enough to beat either of the final two. this is the point, right?

    +/- for the Indictment of Indiana

    I wonder what percentage of his baskets over the past two seasons were assisted by Boo, and what percentage of those were Nicholbombs. I’d imagine something like 80%/90%. The ballhandlers just don’t have that connection with him and, all things considered, I’d rather have possessions where he...

    +/- for the Indictment of Indiana

    Nicholson was awesome, and Fitzmorris is skinny Matt, and Hunger is shooty Matt, and I don’t need to see Hunger again unless there’s foul trouble. Fitzmorris is in the right position, moves the ball when he gets it, and gets all big and gangly on defense. An octopus. Hunger looks for his shot...
