Prayers for longtime Indiana beat writer Terry Hutchens, who is in critical condition after an accident today. I wasn't a fan of his writing but pray he makes a full recovery. Get well soon Terry.

Rumors of cardiac arrest before the accident. Very sad and honestly it hasn't sounded good.
So now you're blaming video games?
Dear God, you must be fun at a party....are you the guy who stands next the the punch bowl to make sure no one spikes it?
Top 50 guy in the 2020 class Jalen Terry is deciding on December 27th, between MSU, Iowa, Iowa State, Missouri, and other MSU (Mississippi State)
About 6’0, but super athletic and explosive.

the better the BT teams recruit the better it is for everybody in the BT, in the 2020 class it looking more and more likely that Foster is going to choose the Hawks, then it looks like top 100 4* PG Beard is a likely pick up for the Hawks.
I mean he also thought Carton and TJD were going to Iowa as well at least he is consistent
Difference is........He's Gilligan. And well, you are not. Winking
I made the pick on Selection Sunday. There wasn't a line yet. I just felt that Texas Tech was a better team than PU, and had no idea Haas was going to get hurt.
PU struggled with athletic teams all season- see UT,WKU,MSU, and UM in the BTT. Wasn't exactly an out on a limb observation...
Amen to that. I will talk mad shit, but I will eat my crow as well. That guy just keeps coming up with excuses and insane arguments.
Own it. Period.
Purdue struggled lost to good teams...check. Let’s call those teams athletic to continue a tired cliche. Funny thing is most D1 players are pretty damn athletic. Grady Eifert would probably kick any 3 people’s ass on this board without breaking a sweat.
Hoping Terry pulls thru. Ironic aspect of your post is that the only time I met Terry was at a poker party in Brownsburg the night PU played KSU in the '98 Alamo Bowl. I had a little money on KSU (they were the better team), but they came out flat and stunk the place up. Terry and I sat there and commiserated for the whole game...
The point is that having watched Texas Tech play numerous times last season I felt they were a better team than PU. The injury to Haas had nothing to do with that assessment, since it occurred in the Tourney...
Why do folks spin things like this? Of course most D1 athletes are "pretty athletic". Hell a dude like McRoberts would probably mop the floor at any park, YMCA, etc, etc...But that isn't the point. There's a difference between athletic players,. and athletic TEAMS. IU has some very athletic players. But I wouldn't call them an overly, athletic team, i.e. a Florida State, Duke, etc, etc...type of team. UVA has some athletic players. WOuldn't describe them as an athletic team. Same for Wisconsin. Same for about 200+ Div 1 teams. Teams that like to go, go, go....Push the pace. Cause havoc. Play fast. They have given Purdue teams some fits; See Arkansas LR. It's not a knock. Just a fact.
I don't understand why you always try and spin this. Purdue has some athlete's. But in no way shape or form, would I call them an athletic, fast paced, up and down the floor, type of team.
One of those schools is not like the others
"I knew team X would lose even before their most impactful player got hurt, pretty much assuring it"
I'll tell you a team that looks athletic is Tennessee. They can all jump out of the gym.

its because I don't live on HR and their are 2 other sites that cover the Hawks. on 247 has him as 100% to Iowa with 5 crystal balls. Foster has also been a regular visitor to Iowa and is very good friends with these
Patrick McCaffrey a 2019 commit 4*
Joe Wieskamp a 2018 commit 4*
Connor McCaffrey 2017 commit who RS'd 4*
and he would replace Cook at the 4
this could be the starting lineup when he stepped on campus
PG 4* Connor
SG/WG 4* Joe
SF 4* Patrick
PF 4* Foster because if he commits to Iowa he will never see that 5th *
C 4* Garza
He secret sign or something? You guys have a solid class too. Any surprises yet?
Could just say he's friends with "recruit/players" name. Has to add the special star ranking, position, favorite color, projected starting lineup, shoe size, etc touch. Well done sir.
Not sure where @herkiesrevenge is reading this, but Xavier's uncle is an avid poster on our board. Xavier isn't even close to making a decision, and according to his family, it wouldn't be Iowa if he picked today.
Its a possibility today. Still the best class we've had ever. There's a few guys deciding at 1000 we're waiting on.
Receiver is going to be pretty fun at Purdue. So much talent at that spot.
I'm also very pleased with our DE and safety recruiting. For a team that projects to score a lot of points, then play in shoot outs / play with the lead, that's a good spot to grab talent.
