haha, he may have been a smart high school player, I hope for IU's sake he's as relatively smart in college. Because if you wanna talk about lacking athleticism......... |

so did a guy by the name of steve alford. how'd that work out for IU. Give me a very smart, fundamentally sound player over some dumb nig thug that can jump but also loves to smoke pot and deal drugs. |

Being smart off of the court and smart on the court are two VERY, VERY different things. Jackson actually has a very good basketball IQ and is a great ball handler and passer. His shot struggles (that can be fixed) and he struggles defensively against big guards. Luckily for Purdue, not many teams play 6'4 PGs in college ball. |

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

Bassett was a dumb pot head. Great shooter though. Shame. |

Seems like IU needs those type of players to beat the Xaviers of the world. |

Like I said, struggles against bigger PGs. VAG3 isn't a PG, and won't be playing PG for IU anymore. Jackson will get to guard Rivers and Hulls, which is advantage Purdue. |

I wonder how much weight was put on that when they choose the All-freshman team |

LMAO. This is classic. For anyone who doesn't want to comb through seven pages, I present to you, OurHoosierBoard.com's Q & A with Unbathed: Q: Why isn’t IU’s recruiting class in the top 10 now? Unbathed: IU’s recruiting class doesn’t include Rivers dipshit! Q: Yeah, like Rivers makes that much of a difference? Unbathed: Rivers as a junior is better than most top 100 guards as freshmen. OWNED! Q: Do you still think IU’s ’07 class was much better than Purdue’s ’07 class? Unbathed: It was. How many of those Turdue recruits are scoring 15 a game in the NBA? BANG! Q: Do you think a guy who plays one mediocre season and sits out a year is going to have that kind of impact? Unbathed: Rivers as a junior with final 4 experience will have more first year impact than some 75-100 ranked freshman. He will be the team leader this year - mark it down Q: So Kramer is not a leader because he averages 5 ppg, and now you’re saying Rivers will be the leader with his 1.3 ppg as a freshman and 2.5 ppg as a sophomore while committing as many turnovers as assists, and shooting about 35% from the field (26% from three) and under 50% from the foul line? Unbathed: My expectations are for Rivers to be a good leader, solid defender, make the open J, not turn the ball over and make free throws. He’s shown he can do these things. Q: Kramer has been doing those things much better than Rivers since his freshman season at Purdue. Unbathed: Rivers also played on loaded teams and wasn't asked to score and even play that much. Q: ALL of Kramer’s offensive numbers are far better than Rivers, so how do you expect him to be a better offensive leader than Kramer? Unbathed: see, this is the bullshit I'm talking about - KRAMER fucking sucks on offense. His jumpshot is a joke for a 6'3 white guard. don't give me this crap about "consentrating on offense". you fuckheads think he's so much better than he really is. as for his defense- OVERRATED. go review the Duke tape and count how many times his ass got beat from over playing and trying to pad defensive stats by over playing passing lanes and going for steals instead of sticking with his man. His defense is a mirage regardless of whatever bogus awards he's won. Q: If Kramer “fucking sucks” on offense, what does that say about Rivers? Unbathed: Rivers won't average more than 4-5 pts/game. his offense is not why he's at IU. Q: No one here claimed Kramer was an offensive juggernaut. You described how fucking great Rivers was going to (bigger impact than top 100 freshman) and have good leadership, defense, etc (everything except offense). Kramer is better than Rivers in every category (including offense) and shoots over 40% from the field, and he sucks? Unbathed: the only reason he's shooting in the 40% range is from layups. Rivers is a much better ball handler than Queen will ever be. I don't think I've ever seen that queer dribble with her left hand. Q: So I guy that can drive to the hoop and get the team easy layups is a bad offensive player? Unbathed: its called getting a junk basket here and there. Rivers threw many fancy passes that were dropped by his clumsy teammates Q: I thought Georgetown was stacked? Unbathed: they were. his NBA level passing was too good for college players Q: I'm assuming the reason he was the 8th guy off the bench was because he was too good for his teammates? Unbathed: I fully expect him to be drastically improved after taking a year off to work on his shooting. Q: Winning B10 DPOY, 3 time All-Defense team, and making the AllB10 team. Kramer >>>>>>> Rivers, and its not really very close A: That may be true, but IU doesn’t expect him to be the third best player on the team. Q: No, no, not your 3rd best, just your TEAM LEADER Unbathed: ***crickets*** Q: The sad part is that Rivers really may be the 3rd best player for IU, and thats not a good thing at all. Unbathed: Watford, Creek, Mr. Elbows, Vag 3, Elston, will all be better than Rivers. perhaps Mr. Double Double will too |
