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

Prolly one of the top kids in IU upcoming class decommited and is now going to Cincinnati.

Heres is the article:



Tim Adams
BearcatLair.com

Talk about it in Knucklehead Central
Brian Kelly's Bearcats picked up a nice recruiting surprise on Sunday when Jibreel Black from Wyoming High School called Indiana and informed the Hoosier coaching staff that he had changed his mind about attending Indiana.

Black then made the call to Cincinnati and verbally committed to the Bearcats.

The local star called Bearcat Lair with the news on Monday afternoon and explained the reason for his change of heart.

"The reason I made this decision, was it was in my heart," said Black. It was too good an opportunity right in front of my face, and I just had to take it. I still think IU is a great program, but I felt UC was one of the best opportunities that I had, and I couldn't pass it up."

After calling Indiana and delivering the bad news, Black wasted no time letting his new school know about his change of heart.

"I called Coach Coombs after I called Indiana and let him know I was committing (to UC), and he was ecstatic. He was very happy."

Black continued. "UC had stopped recruiting me once I committed to Indiana, but as I watched their games, I felt like that was where I wanted to play." Black described his new decision as "rock solid."

With older brother Larry starting for the Hoosiers at defensive tackle, Jibreel admitted it was tough informing Indiana of the news. "It was very tough. I have a lot of bonds up there, a lot of friends, but I just thought I had to do what's right for me and stop worrying about other people."

The fact that Cincinnati is 7-0 with a realistic chance of competing for a national championship also helped Black see the potential of the Bearcat football program.

"That helped out a lot. When I spoke with Coach Kelly after I committed, he said he was hoping they could show me what they were talking about as they were recruiting me. And they did. Cincinnati gives me an opportunity to win and play for championships."

Jibreel Black becomes the sixteenth member of Cincinnati's 2010 recruiting class.
