This video of my reaction to the greatest play in Colts' history popped up in my FB memories. #neverforget

[Priority Sports @PrioritySports]

After 12 NBA seasons, Doug McDermott is retiring.

Congrats to Doug on an amazing career!

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

The Giants throwbacks and endzones make me extremely nostalgic.

[Scoops @ejmaroun]

Will forever remember Dan Hicks for this call. Incredible commentator. RIP.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

Really heartbreaking. A tremendous broadcaster and he’ll be greatly missed.

[NBC Sports @NBCSports]

Dan Hicks was an extraordinary colleague, friend and person. In his 34 years at NBC Sports, he was an exceptional storyteller and caller of games and events who elevated some of the biggest moments in sports history.

From Olympic swimming and skiing to Notre Dame football, numerous other high profile events and especially as the signature voice of our golf coverage for the last 26 years, Dan’s blend of knowledge, style, enthusiasm and humor informed and entertained fans for decades.

But far beyond his on-air excellence, Dan was a better person who welcomed teammates with a smile, a joke, or a word of encouragement, sometimes all three in the same sentence. Our heartfelt condolences and love to his wife Hannah and his daughters Hannah, Ellery and Riley.

I know it's hard not to react to the weekly College Football Playoff rankings but it's really a waste of energy to react to the weekly College Football Playoff rankings.

“But the Colts have no receivers left”

[Zach Osterman @ZachOsterman]

Attendance grabbed attention at IU-Syracuse on Monday night. It reflected a sport that's responded to a crisis by going to war with itself, destroying its greatest asset in an effort to save itself. Scenes like that are the residual damage.

@NaptownWiseman @CrimsonCast They definitely came in low at 11th, but it was argued that was because they didn’t have a true high-quality win. Now they do. I see a lot of gripes with the risers/fallers and placement of other teams but not that one.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

@sheffler_clint Glad you got to move up at least!

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

Is there apathy in the fanbase? Of course (and there should be)! But a $85 get-in-the-door neutral site game on a Monday to see two programs just trying to get back to being NCAA Tournament teams again is an insane ask.

Even if it was Knight-Boeheim I'm not sure I'd pay that.

[Chet Steadman @beanfloppy]

@Schultz975 Ticket prices, inconvenient start times, snow storms, extreme heat, blah blah blah. IU fans always have a list of excuses why so many of their events are half empty

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

@SportzR4Girlz Exactly!

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

@kylerrobbins Wouldn't their pre-established logic have told you IU wasn't going to drop five spots during a bye week, though?

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

@kylerrobbins My point is can we speak in absolutes on anything this committee does when they seem to make this stuff up as they go along? I wouldn't say IU is definitely out in that hypothetical knowing that there will be multiple 3-loss teams under consideration.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

It is not designed to make sense. It is designed to get people to react.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

@PhilSanchezTV Agree that the more rational thing to do is to trade him, but if they weren’t blown away by any offers, I don’t think waiting for a new GM to make that decision will totally nuke his trade value.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

Selfishly, I'm glad Jonathan Taylor is staying (at least for now) just so there is someone left to watch.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

@Ozai75 I didn’t interpret that as meaning a 4th round pick swap, but the wording is vague so who knows.

[Derek Schultz @Schultz975]

Ehhhhhhhhhhh... that's not great

[Jordan Schultz @Schultz_Report]

Sources: The #Colts had an offer for DT Grover Stewart last week involving a 4th-round pick and another late-round pick, but waited on it and it was ultimately pulled.

Indy keeps Stewart, who will be a free agent in March.
