IU and UK fans. It's time.

Beautiful campus. Love going there.
Can't remember if I have asked you this before or not. Why do coaches send players to mid court to check in and sit there when the next dead ball will be a timeout? Example, it's already under 16 minutes and the next whistle will be a TV timeout. Is there actually a purpose behind that? Saves time from checking in after the timeout? Or is it just them being clueless about the clock?

Next dead ball could be anything---foul, violation, etc...You wanna have your guy already checked in----Sometimes the game can move quick, and you cant get your guy off the bench, to the table, fast enough.

I am saying they are already under the 4 minute timeout cutoff and the next whistle will be a TV timeout. Why send them to the table knowing they aren't going to get in and just have to come back to the bench/huddle during the timeout?

During a media t/o, there are two horns----one at 45, the other when timeout is over. If you do not report before the FIRST horn, you cannot check into the game. So coaches have the kids ckeck in, so not lost in the shuffle of a timeout.

OK that makes sense. But why they gotta sit there after they go to the table? Why not check in and go back to the bench?
 
Haha, Georgetown College is prob legit better than Georgetown U. 🤣
They are really good. Had them last year---Fast as ****. And they return everyone.

People get hung up on "NAIA"--but dont understand how NAIA operates. Nowhere near the mess the NCAA is. You see a ton of legit D1 talent at the NAIA level.

I had a baseball game at Cumberlands few years back---they had 4 dude who had originally signed with SEC schools---one with LSU. But due to grades, transfer guidleines, etc...they go the NAIA route, AND---DO NOT LOSE eligibility at the D1 level.

I will be shocked if Gtown does not win the NAIA title.

Rule for one.....Also, sometimes the media timeout is not always at the 16, 12, 8 or 4...If a timeout comes within 30 seconds of a tv timeout, that becomes the media timeout.

Seems like a better route than Juco, honestly.
 
...and let's not forget the child-level painting that came out after that game.

 
For the record I'm bowing out of this thread. When you take into consideration the education and poverty numbers for the state of Kentucky they not only are difficult to talk to but they need whatever internet win they can get to improve their lives and happiness. Will see you all in another thread, everyone does like to see a feel good story so good luck this year.
 
And sobbing and lying about the situation is why you are a kensucky fan. Making excuses for you cowardly slimy coach.
Show me one post where I've done either of those things, you imbecile.

"Kensucky"...tells me all I need to know about you. Probably a teen aged girl

Holy shit!

I am sure glad that I live in the horribly uneducated, poverty infected state of Kentucky. At the least our minds don't get infected from whatever grows north of the Ohio.

I am glad you get to live in the State that was settled by the British through the great lakes.

Geeze you are one simple creature.

God, you really are stupid. I mean you really are. None of those posts are about me "lying or sobbing about the situation". The "situation" is how fans acted at the IU game; I wasn't there, so I don't know, so therefore I have not commented on the "situation". You have conflated the actual 2012 game with the renewal of the series. You imbecile.
