absolutely and possibly UNC. remember, UNC has picked up 2 NCAA titles in the past 15 years - one was a gift. Crean will have them back in the top 4 within the next 5-7 years. Once K retires, Duke will slide back to mediocrity. With 1.50 gas, I can afford all sorts of time machine travel these days. LIARS - sell the Dec 5 calls for SLW and pick up .20 cents for 7 days. |

IU at the height of the Knight Era (75-92) was as good of a run that you are going to find outside of UCLA at the height of the Wooden Era. |

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

I wonder if the rankings factored in that Purdue has been the better team in each of the last three seasons... |

Yes. Instead of serving his jail sentence, Coach Convict was doing a very good job on the court. |

IU was better in 2006 by any measure you care to use. 2007 can be argued back and forth all day 2008 Turdue should be better but who know what those choke artists will do. |

28th not to shabby for us. IU obviously has the better tradition, but not to bad for us at a lowly "clown college". |

boilerupthebutt, you have the right attitude. Accept your position in life and keep your expectations low - you'll be a happier manure sniffer in the long run. |

Purdue was arguably better in '06-07, definitely better in 07-08, and definitely better this year. Speaking of choke-artists. would you classify last year's Hoosiers as chokers, or were they just not that good to begin with? |

Which court are you talking about? If Knight cheated the legal court, what makes you think he didn't cheat the NCAA court as well? |

Pretty simple actually. The 06-07 Hoosiers had a severe case of MSS (Mich State Syndrome). Unbeatable at home, couldn't beat anyone decent away from home. Also finished 10-6 in the Big Ten thanks to only having to play OSU once, and not having to play at Wisconsin. Also got bailed out of a road loss to Minny. You should also be thankful that you managed to win a NCAA game against a Gonzaga team that was w/o its best player. Purdue's neutral court wins over #14 Arizona and Iowa were more impressive than anything IU did that year. UB=Ungrateful Bastard Edited by BoilerVision, Dec 12 2008, 02:42 PM.

wow - typical turdue speak. I ran out of fingers counting the excuses. BV gives all turdue fans a bad name. He's the bitter, angry Bonaduce that was telling everyone how better turdue was than IU during IU's national title/final 4 years. youi are beyond hope. |

Better? No. Should the Purdue teams of the 1987 championship era be discussed in the same conversation? Absolutely. Purdue had some very very good teams at that time. Obviously IU has a banner from that era we don't, but it would have been a tossup who would win any game between IU's 86-87 team and Purdue's. I was at several of both teams games. I remember. I wish the whole BT would go back to those glory days... that was some damn good basketball. |
