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

Just a question, do you know about any of the changes that Hope is making in the program? We have a new offensive and defensive coordinator, and a new QB (one who has been a backup for 4 years, so its not like he inherited talent there).

When the talent that he has recruited is in place, then I think we can judge him.
I've caught a couple Purdue games this year, and that's about it. I'm sure he'll improve with some new recruits, but wasn't he at Purdue last year to get a jump on the transition?
He was here last year, which has probably helped. But the OC and DC were not here last year. And he's went with a pretty drastic change in recruiting, which I think is what most people are most excited about. That change won't take effect until a couple of recruiting classes are in the program.
“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

Condemning Hope for this season's performance would be about as dumb as praising Chuck Weis for the 2005 season.
didnt take long for homervision to bring up ND

His whistle is his security blanket I guess................
:rofl: In all seriousness, he hasn't been very impressive from what I've seen. I wouldn't judge someone as far as firing this early, but he doesn't strike me as someone that's got a system that's so complex that it just takes time to click.
