IUPUI Game thread

[thebluehatman]

The weekend of the Lamb Bonzana is here. IUPUI comes to town. And so does 6'5", 250 pound troll Julia Whitted (as pictured here) lovely isn't she.

Megan Vogel returns to Frost Arena to watch the game, and the Jacks should roll. The Jags are 7-7 on the year and 2-1 in conference. K.Ro is suffering the affects of a concussion and might not be 100%. We'll see, but it should be a good game.

rotert does have a mild concussion. idk if she'd play saturday prolly not. v-johnson possibly a stress fracture. muck a sprained ankle. AJ is maybe being a little too intense in practice after the loss.

Wait...We can pick on football players of opposing team, hell we started thread for most of the teams we played. But we can pick on other athletes of different sports? Sounds like there are some serious double standards going on here.

Re: IUPUI Game thread

In two games against the Jacks last year Julia Whithead sp, had a total of 11 points. One at IUPUI and ten at Frost. She also fouled out at Frost. Run her get her tired, run at her and get some blocking fouls.

Re: IUPUI Game thread

I hope rebounding is being emphisized for improvement this wk in practice, when we win the rebounding battle , the extra shots at the basket helps us win the game.
Hope not too many players get banged up in practice, or we'll go from strong bench status to short bench status.( also, hate to see anyone get hurt too, i should mention)
Hopefully we'll shoot a high fg % & all the rest of the statistics won't be so critical.
Lotta hope,'n, should sound more certain I guess.
I'd really like to see a domineering (sp) performance to let the rest of the league know were back & for them not to expect an easy game when they play us.( maybe instill (sp) a little fear in them as well)

Re: IUPUI Game thread

I honestly believe the Jacks are fine. The Oakland loss was a loss against a good team, not a great team, but a good team... The ladies and AJ will work it out in practice this week and come back stronger than ever.

A loss teaches you too.. they can be just as important in a season as every win, maybe more so in a lot of situations.

I would not want to have to face the Jacks, Period, end sentence. They have the capability of beating any team on any given day... and I would say dominating most...

Is it Saturday yet?

bluehatman, I think there is an opportunity to learn here. You post things, attempting to come off as a person of knowledge, a credible source. Then you turn around and resort to middle school antics.

Just stop before you send your posts and say to yourself, "Is this the right thing to say or do?"

Re: IUPUI Game thread

Good rule of thumb in all things college athletics (and lower, for that matter. Pros, a different thing).

These are 18, 19, 20-year old athletes, doing their best. Sometimes better than others. Most importantly, each and every one is someone's daughter or son.

In defense of bluehatman, I think there is a double standard at work here. Every week during football season there were threads making light of the appearance of opposing players. Bluehatmans post is really no different.

That being said, I thought the football posts were inappropriate as was this one.

Re: IUPUI Game thread

I absolutely agree with HoboD's post. I think we need to act like civilized human beings and type in stuff acting as if our mother's and father's were looking over our shoulders.

The difference is that you are supposedly a journalist - are you still writing for the Brookings Register ? What would the reaction be here if Terry V or Tyler M. came on here and made a post like you did about the IUPUI player ?
