in Bloomington. With his hiring, South Beach Hoosier's prediction

-and wish- came true!

Now, we can finally get back to the IU tradition: an emphasis on

playing smart, playing hard, playing as a team -and winning with class.

And graduating!

No more one-and-done recruits!

"In the Heart of a Great Country, Beats the Soul of Hoosier Nation." -South Beach Hoosier, 2007

Those of you who have written, called or wondered

when I was FINALLY going to be writing something

about Isiah being hired as head coach at FIU, and

the Miami media's tempest-in-a-teapot over his hiring,

should know that something was already written weeks

ago on him and the over-the-top media coverage,

where lots of usually sober TV and print reporters

were sloppy with facts and heavy with insinuations

in ways that you rarely see on local news coverage

-even in Miami!

It's in cold storage right now, waiting for the right time

to bring it out, a day that is fast approaching.
