  • Fans Of Pearl To IU...Look At This...
Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Cheating to the detriment of your team is one thing, at least you can say "he's trying to win at all costs". Cheating (lying) to the detriment of another team is much worse.




Sampson did that - with the way he handled the Gordon affair as well as the rumors of racism he spread about Coach Weber.

I don't think IU will hire Pearl, because I don't think the BT will allow it. Relations among programs are already at a low point thanks to Sampson. Pearl has more baggage than a luggage store. Plus, don't forget, Pearl is now in the SEC, and has raised some eyebrows there about his recruiting tactics. If you are borderline in the SEC, you'd be in prison anywhere else.

Yeah they would not be a manager at McDonalds if they paid 30k a year for school.

Nice comeback. Besides you need a business degree from Kelley to get on the golden arch fast track. Engineers start out at much more than 30k.

They consider Pearl sketchy because he didn't tell whole truths in the allegations with Deon Thomas. He claimed that Thomas received money and a vehicle from Illinois based on half-truths, and none of his allegations were ever proven true. During the investigation though, other minor violations were found.

This does trouble me a little. Blaming other schools for cheating when you lose a recruit is pretty weak. He had very little reason to believe it was true, and it seems to me that he was just angry that he lost a recruit more than his own principles.

You should read more carefully I said "manager" not CEO.

Purdue has more fortune 500 CEO's than any other shcool

(Actually most of the Macdonalds CEO's came from university of Illinois but you get the point)
