At the lounge, Parks Place Pub up in Fissures as the Indy Ignite have their draft party for the pro volleyball league.

And the pick is in for the Ignite and they go with it.

And why not?

Why not?

Thank you, Eddie.

With the first pick at the professional volleyball draft,

the Indy Ignite Select,

Kara Kreis from the University of Louis,

but most importantly from Fort Wayne,

Fort Wayne Blackhawk, a 6-foot-6 middle blocker,

who was seventh in the nation last year in college volleyball in blocks,

is now a member of the Indy Ignite,

and that is a player that I think

they really had their eye on with that fifth overall pick. So a loud ovation you may have heard

when that selection was made. There will be plenty of ovations like that for Indiana fans if they

are able to win the Old Oak and Bucket. And of course, tomorrow against Kansas State and basketball,

joining us now on the Java House, Peelhamport, guest line. He is the voice of the Hoosiers in both

sports. And we will, once again, Don, I'm going to give you recipient choice. You want to talk with

football first or basketball first. The decision is yours, Don Fisher. Thanks for joining us.

Well, football has been prominent, of course, throughout the year until this past week in which they had a buy week, which came at a perfect time.

So let's just touch on football first.

Okay, let's begin with that in terms of, and I want to touch on that, Don, because when a team is unblemished as Indiana has been, and it has been a year, obviously, they still own, in my opinion, the best win in college football this year, winning at Oregon. You know, everybody knows the story of the team. But when you say comes at the perfect time, I'm always curious about biweeks in terms of when is the most advantageous period. You say it comes at the perfect time for them for this team.
