I love the two-handed out of bounds signal, like a football WH pumping the timeout.

Izzo whines just about as much as anyone I've ever seen.

Indiana didn't play today. We lost last night to Penn St.

I think you mean UI (University of Illinois), rather than IU (Indiana University).

Sorry, that's just always bugged me.

Looks like those two have been away from 2 man far too long. Especially Hightower, he looked very confused.

Actually it is U of I not UI. I hate them, but living in this state I want to set the record state.

Peace

Its the third time that Hightower had to work 2-man in a MSU game.
11/16- Idaho
1/11- Kansas
3/1- Illinois

I think that bad thing is he has worked 11 MSU games.
Thats alot of games to have the same official for.

I know, I'm originally from Illinois too. I'm not a fan of them either. UI is used on an Indiana Basketball message board I post on, so it's grown on me. I still call it U of I verbally though.

I guess the assigner of the Big 10 doesn't think so.

Record state? Record number of governor convictions? The place where they make vinyl albums?

Hmm...I see from your education you must be a UM fan... :p :D

I thought after Olsen came back that Hightower and O'Neill did a great job as L still working towards ball side and yet not forcing a rotation. Hats off to Olsen too, for a guy as sick as he must have been, the only sign was the bandage on his wrist.

Hightower has grown more dramatic over the years, I think he is getting ready to take a spot travelling with the Globetrotters after he "retires"

I wonder what fans of the University of Idaho have to say on the subject.
