alum sightings Don't know if you're in B-town or not but do you know if any of the old guard are coming back to watch Yeagley's last game at Armstrong Stadium? I think it'd be kinda cool to see the Snow Bros., DiBernardo, Juergan, Mais, Dema, Aleksey, Noonan, Mack...(the list is pretty damn big) and show the old coach a proper thank you. PS-How'd you like the massive sleet storm at the back end of the first half.
Won't the Hoosiers host at least one, and likely more, NCAA Tournament games so this likely isn't Yeagey's actual last game? That said, it would be kinda cool to see all the high profile ex Hoosiers at the game Sunday.
Flip: I was in the press box, so for me the sleet and rain wasn't an issue. Ah, the pleasures of being in the media! As for players coming back, I do know some were around the box last night but I am not sure who. I am sure if they can they'll be around. I think Noonan has to head back to NE though, but we'll see on Sunday.
