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

Does anyone else wonder why we got away from playing Zone? That is how we got the big lead in the first half and now they have caught up with us playing man to man.

Yeah, now we are finally playing zone again, a little too late. Hope Jones isn't hurt bad.

I wouldn't judge too much in these first games as far as Crean's choices.

I suppose. But when you go on an 18-0 run in the first half after going to a zone it would seem to have been a pretty good choice. I'm sure he's going to be trying different things with different personel to get a feel for his guys.

Exactly, that was my point.

If he does that in conference play, I'd be a little concerned, but these games should be practice (even though we could potentially lose given our current state...).

On a side note, anyone else laughing at Noble's haircut? Makes me want to sing, "In west Philadelphia born and raised, On the playground was where I spent most of my days, Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool, And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school..."
