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

I was born in 1974 in Bloomington Indiana. my family DR was the IU team Doctor brad Bomba (sp). IU has won 5 national titles. 1940 i was not alive but they won the natioanl championship that year i know nothing about it. 1953 I know nothing about this team either other than Slick the pacer announcer was on the team.

1976 i was only 19 Months but Indiana completed a perfect season and played as a team. I remember the 1981 game. I was actually a young IU fan back then. I Thomas was by far my favorite teacher. I went to elememtary school in Helmsburg and we had many student teachers from IU. 1987 i was in the seventh grade and cheered for IU as thy ran the table and won the title for the 5th time. I have admired many Iu players ovr the years and admit IU has a great national history in Basketball.

I am going to puke now. AaronK that is the best I can do. I am no Nage

I wish I could say something nice about Purdue, but for some reason it's hard to spin one national championship (in Women's basketball nonetheless) into a nice statement...You will be good this year? That's about the best I can do.

thank you BG....and I owe this all to John McCain not picking Lieberman as the VP.

Sirbri, can we pin this for a while?

The body knows what fighters don't: how to protect itself. A neck can only twist so far. Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism.
