4. ONE FOR THE ROAD
For the unique and incorrigible Mr. Elston, here’s Living Colour with “Cult of Personality.”
So thankful IU ended up with Jordy, CWat and Elston.
They deserve an outstanding final home game.
They are ‘winners’ and it would be fairy-tale-like for this team to finish the year as the ultimate winners.
Bet 4 years ago they did not imagine what their Senior year would be like.
CTC should also be recognized for their recruitment and growth. Hope he continues attracting these kind of kids.
Ron, I agree with your comments. Thank God they all came to IU and helped us to get back to the top. Mike P would know better than me but I think Jordy took a trip to Duke, they just did not offer him. I have to say thanks to Creek as well…poor guy. I sat about 10 seats from him at the women’s game yesterday…should look it up but I think he avg like 16 points a game as a freshman and I remember that win vs Pitt like it was yesterday. I am just thrilled with the way things have played out with Indiana basketball and Coach Crean. I am a proud Hoosier today and sure hope we can hang a banner and run through the Big Dance!!!
As a side note I have to thank kids like Pritch, Rivers, and Jones…as much as they frustrated me I thank them. I will always wonder why Nick Williams and Malik Story left as well and I never really understood why. Last thing…what are the chances we win the Big dance? I say 70% as of right now but I hope we don’t run up against a team with really physical bigs!
