AC Radio: The Lasting Impacts of Bill Garrett and George Taliaferro

By Leave a Comment

This week on Assembly Call Radio, we welcome special guest Bill Murphy to share the stories and of Bill Garrett and George Taliaferro — two legendary IU athletes because of their supreme skill and athletic achievement, but more importantly because of their impact on racial integration at IU, the Big Ten, and college sports nationwide.

Plus, a reflection on how the current Hoosiers are handing the tumult of the last 10 days, and an update on when voluntary workouts will begin. And we also answer audience questions.

All that and much more on this edition of The Assembly Call.

On the mics: Andy, Ryan, Coach, and special guest Bill Murphy

AC Radio: The Impact of Justin Smith’s Grad Transfer

By Leave a Comment

This week on Assembly Call Radio, we have our regularly scheduled offseason episode about Justin Smith … just in a much different context than we were anticipating last week. How will Justin’s departure impact Indiana on the court next season? We dissect it from several angles.

Plus:

• Two Hoosiers were on a 2021 NBA Draft Big Board
• What impact is the cancellation of the summer recruiting calendar going to have?
• Indiana announced its academic calendar for the upcoming school year.
• What pie-in-the-sky nonconference game would we like to see Indiana get on its schedule?
• Will Archie have to coach effort this year?
• How is Indiana likely to use its two open scholarships, if at all?

And stick around until the end, because we stumble upon a theretofore unmentioned element of Indiana’s team that stands to get significantly better based on how the roster is now constructed.

All that and much more on this edition of The Assembly Call.

On the mics: Jerod, Ryan, and Coach

AC Radio: How Much Better Can Al Durham Be as a Senior?

By Leave a Comment

This week on Assembly Call Radio, we begin our offseason player deep dives by discussing Al Durham. He’s clearly overachieved based on his recruiting pedigree. Is he now ready for a leading role on a deep IU team as a senior?

Plus: what Indiana’s improving APR means; the impact of Khristian Lander officially reclassifying on Indiana’s outlook for next season; what the recent positive trends in terms of getting sports going again mean for college hoops; some Al Durham over-unders; and a look at Archie’s coaching history and whether he’s ever had a player quite like Lander.

And then, for the YouTubers, our latest ChatMob induction … the man they call Hooparazzi.

All that and much more on this edition of The Assembly Call.
