Brittany Diehl Talks Bulls-Pacers Playoffs, Butler and Purdue



We’re like that bad penny that keeps turning up — We’re the Deposit!

Today we brought in the talented and lovely Brittany Diehl from Fox 59 News in Indianapolis to talk about all things Indiana sports.

Including the Bulls vs. Pacers NBA Playoffs series.

We even, out of season, hit on Peyton Manning and who I think his college basketball doppelganger is, where Brad Stevens could end up as a head coach down the road (hint: Illinois fans, it ain’t us — stop hoping for it. Now.) and the almost-disaster in West Lafayette with terrifying facial features and hollow, unfeeling eyes that would be hanging out with children. A further clue about who we’re talking about: He carries a hammer…a really big hammer…

Listen in after the jump. [Read more...]

Yes, it would appear Bruce Weber is staying put, and the university has announced that they have called a press conference to announce that Weber is staying.

Yes, you read that right…so if any of this seems a little bit like people are trying too hard, you might be thinking the same things that myself and hailtotheorange.com’s Joe Kutsunis were thinking.

And yeah, nothing may come of Weber’s flirtation with the Oklahoma, but…well, just take a listen after the jump. [Read more...]
