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

Joe musta been baked out of his mind, if we get as many teams as the big east then we are going to be lucky as hell, I really doubt that happens

That seems a little more realistic, I totally believe that if Michigan can win out its last couple games and win a Big Ten tournament game they are in, I dont think Ohio State is in though, they havent really beaten any great teams and arent looking to great right now.

... MSU and Purdue could have beat all 4 of those teams...
Why are we now grouping MSU and Purdue?! I think MSU stands alone, and PU, UI and OSU are the next tier.

The Big Ten is tough this year (sorry, Evil), so I think all of these teams are semi-equal, but the only Big Ten team in my mind that could make even the Elite Eight is MSU. With that said, PU, UI and OSU are all capable of making the Sweet Sixteen, given the right seed.

Umm I'm grouping Purdue and MSU together because we just beat MSU by nearly 20 points.

Its tough though, you pretty much have to put the Robbie Hummel asterisk next to Purdue's name. With him, definitely in the MSU group. Without him, in the UI/OSU group.
“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 have to admit that I initially misjudged IU-PU-UI based on his name, thinking he would turn out to be another blatant homer. But his posts are good...as is his assessment of the B10 and College Basketball in general.
