eli-holman Stories - The Crimson Quarry
Eli Holman.
Mark Montieth's article in today's Indy Star on IU freshman-to-be Eli Holman is a must-read, and I highly recommend the audio interview that is available on the sidebar. Holman sounds mature beyond his years, and anyone who has elected to form his opinion on Holman based upon the unfortunate...
Always an adventure with Eli.
The Eli Holman saga continues. As I documented in a post a few weeks back, Holman, despite growing up in a rough town and despite the red flag of the referee incident, seems to be a high-quality kid with a promising future. After the unfortunate incident early in his junior season, Holman had to...
Good news for Eli?

Holman eligible.
With less than 30 minute to go before basketball practice begins, great news: Eli Holman is eligible.
The strange saga of Eli Holman continues.
Eli Holman's story is interesting and compelling. He overcame a tough upbringing and was suspended for a year of high school basketball for bumping an official. Despite all that, Eli comes across as mature and with a great perspective on where he has been and what he needs to do. Nevertheless,...
As the world turns.
Through Bob Knight, Mike Davis, and Kelvin Sampson, IU's on-court fortunes have varied from season to season. The constant, of course, is that Indiana basketball is a soap opera. It seems unlikely that Tom Crean will ever match Knight's legendary temper, Davis's arrogant incompetence, or Sampson's...
