Big Blue Madness

[Supafuzz75]

Why don’t we have a full contact scrimmage and get 3-4 players hurt. Some of you are just pure dumb asses.

Yea that's just a stupid take and you're the dumb ***..

 

[MegaBlue05]

I didn't even know BBM was on until I looked on here. Did I just completely miss any talk of it or is it the least excitement ever for a BBM?

It’s a mix of lack of excitement because the arena seems dead, and this is the earliest it’s ever been and the university didn’t do a good job publicizing it.

BBM has been in mid October since its inception. I didn’t know about it until yesterday because of this board. I didn’t expect it to be for another week or two.

 

[ComebackCats98]

Seems like every year it doesn’t fully live up to the excitement. Tubby and Karl Anthony Towns were the best parts of the night. Meh overall. Not because they didn’t scrimmage. I understand not wanting anyone to get hurt. Just kind of underwhelming product to me

This. I didn’t even watch for the first time in years. It being on SECN+ is a disgrace.

Holy **** his head almost hit the net.

That made me laugh

They’ve pretty much ruined it by splitting the time with the women, I’m all for the women having a separate one. Now they’re going to ruin the blue white game also. Everything‘s a damn show anymore, might as well watch wrestling or better yet bring back roller derby.

Yeah… I think most people don’t want to see the woman that much, but that is modern day for you. I too think they should have their own event. I like when we have a good team, but I’m here to see the real deal team. To the people who enjoy it, cool. I guess it doesn’t really matter as it’s like a glorified introduction and knowing Pope teams we may have two people out for the year after it’s done if we play anyway.

 

[ThreeDogNight2]

Lol.. I forgot all about it.. First time in 36 years didn't watch..

All you grown a#s adults who think your cool because you didn’t watch it lmao

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Hard to tell, but is the upper level completely empty? Is that normal? I always thought BBM was nearly packed.

It used to be sold out. The Wall year I went you couldn’t find a seat.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Women's team has some snipers, and a top 10 pick from 2025 to go along with the returner's. Great job building a roster by Kenny!

Kenny is legit

 

[ThreeDogNight2]

What? Like dunks so bad they make me **** my pants?

Why would a bad dunk make you poop

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Jerone can't even walk down stairs. Bigger injury than they are letting on.

I expect him back by March if we are lucky. If he doesn’t play by Janurary for real he won’t play imho. Gotta save that NIL year.

 

[ThreeDogNight2]

I bet if we had John Wall out there tonight he would win this slam dunk contest.

Imagine spending an hour+ hate watching a basketball program while also supporting them by watching

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

I'm the only one who does that?

The year Justin Edwards was here I went through 8 pairs of my undies. Total blowouts. Not even salvageable.

 

[ThreeDogNight2]

Zyon Hawthorne looks like one of the trainers who does their laundry who they just let put on a uniform and shoot around tonight.

How? Do you say that because he is short or because that’s the joke you wanted to make and you have zero actual reason to say that

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

Nah, I only watched it from some Youtube stream out of Saudi Arabia. So my advertising dollars are only going to the finest of Saudi princes.

 

[ThreeDogNight2]

I'm sure he's feeling the pressure. It would be sad if the man actually had to start drinking a little just to ease the vibes.

What sucks is i don't want to keep being mean to Pope but his product just isn't gonna get it done. I hate thinking about him failing here. I would rather him win here than anybody but we all see it.

Projecting your alcoholism on pope is crazy

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Looks like Malik Monk form. Not the athlete but if he is actually a legit player that would be a huge help. Looks good in practice.

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

I said that because he sucks.

Any more brain busters? Derp.

Same. I wasn't even thinking about BBM because it is usually a couple weeks from now.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Well

I am excited to see him. After that UConn game he was a player I really wanted. Glad we got him.

 

[Son_Of_Saul]

First time in my life where I had next to no interest in watching. The program is slowly suffocating.

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

I know man! He might put up 30 points the next time we play a team of a bunch of brainless, cold, stationary racks strategically placed around the three point line that don't move or do nothing at all really except feed you basketballs like a PEZ dispenser.

i think its already out of oxygen

Tubby is getting way too overexposed.

It's like back in the day your watching some Jay Leno and you're like "GDit, Louie Anderson? That's like the third time this month."

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Can he do it in games? He has the physical tools to be a good player. All about his handle and how well he creates in games.

 

[catman15]

Was begging for a little play by play for once in my life

 

[Johnny_Jeepers]

i think its already out of oxygen

And in its place? @Starrcade's favorite: the armpit smell of Brian Knobbs and Jerry Sags the one-and-only NASTY BOYS!!!!!!

*the BBN crowd goes wild as the literal Nasty Boys make their way down the aisleway and onto the court. Pope gives them a double high five, up high and then down low.*

It's like my old man used to say:

He's got the tools, but well, where's the GD wrench? No, those are pliers, not a f'n wrench. How many times do I have to tell you this, son? And don't think I won't whip your *** if you start tearing up like last weekend. It's time for you to grow the f up. Now back up.

Just got back from bbm

just wanted to say Alex Wilkins is one of the best bball players I've ever seen

Congrats on your first game. That'll always be a special memory.

I’m sure we will have some good players. It’s just too early for this. Normally we have two weeks to talk about BBM, exhibition games, etc.

Not first lol

3rd bbm

been to 8 uk games

There is such a thing as diapers. May help with your health ailment.

What brand is the most easily digestible? I figured you would know.

nothing.....just start the season with an exhibition game. BBM isnt even a good recruiting tool any more.

 

[Catastic5]

To be fair, I’ve seen some of their football games having pretty patchy crowds. And they just won a national title. Indiana fans seem to be nonexistent despite having one of the largest alumni bases in the country.

You're the one with the digestive issue so you tell me.
