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

Which state has the best college basketball?


California
Florida
North Carolina
Texas
Virginia



That's their poll on the college basketball site. What a fucking joke. When Butler has been successful, Purdue is ranked in the top 10, and IU is in the state (which has more national titles than nearly 3 of those states bests teams have combined) and Indiana doesn't even get mentioned?

Virginia?... Seriously?

Espn is a fucking joke and a MAD HATER of Indiana. We'll show those assholes...

ok--

Texas -- UT has been good (but only recently)
Florida -- Florida (good recently), Miami sucks, florida state sucks, etc., etc.
I'll give them North Carolina
California -- probably warranted, even though they only have 1 legit team..
Virginia -- just wow. i don't even know what to say to that one..
Death to Signatures.

I originally thought this meant the best basketball states recruiting wise.

I then would say its California just because a lot McDonald's All-Americans they had coming out of there. Then they probably threw Virginia in there because Oak Hill Academy, which is a joke because they recruit players all around the country.

North Carolina does have great basketball in college, but Indiana and Kentucky have way more tradition in basketball all throughout the states. Texas and Florida are football states too.

I agree this poll is a fucking joke. ^o)

You forgot about Notre Dame as well... they're currently ranked ahead of Purdue in the top-10.

California and North Carolina both deserve to be in the poll. At least the people in Virginia and Florida still have North Carolina leading their states unlike Texas... bunch of homers.

ESPN just seems to hate the Big Ten in general, ignore Butler, and hype up the Gomers...so in their eyes, there is only one good basketball team in this state right now.

Notre Dame is way overrated. IU should mop the floor with them. :P

"Liberal, shmiberal. That should be a new word. Shmiberal: one who is assumed liberal, just because he's a professional whiner in the newspaper. If you'll read the subtext for many of those old strips, you'll find the heart of an old-fashioned Libertarian. And I'd be a Libertarian, if they weren't all a bunch of tax-dodging professional whiners." - Berkeley Breathed

IU fans should rush the floor if IU keeps it under double digits
