The forecast has held out longer than expected. That might not be good news for Pole Day, Bump Day, or more importantly, Race Day, but it’s been great for the teams turning lap after lap at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. As the calendar now flips to Fast Friday, the mileage [...]
Pardon the middle brother of the talented Gordon family for taking a bit of the spotlight today. These days, the majority of the conversation in these parts about a Gordon in hoops is the landing spot for the last of the line, Eron. The sophomore-to-be could have a shot at [...]
Tracy Smith has been selling the gospel of Indiana baseball since the day he set foot on campus in 2006. His program’s record (and talent) have steadily increased during that time frame, even to the point of winning the Big Ten tournament and making the NCAA field for just the [...]
