  • Rivers injured, Jobe competing for a spot.
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

Here is an article I ran across on statement made by Crean that Rivers injured his face on a pick and roll with Muniru and that Jobe is competing for a spot in the rotation. I don't think Rivers injury is serious but Crean didn't allow him to travel to Chicago.

Here is the article:

Rivers skips Chicago due to facial injury
• By Dustin Dopirak | Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 3:49 pm | 12 Comments »
Jeremiah Rivers didn’t make the Trip to Chicago for Big Ten Media Day, Tom Crean said, because he suffered a facial injury in practice coming off a pick n’ roll.

“He hit his face in a pick n’ roll situation,” Crean said. “He ran into an elbow, and we decided to keep him back so he could fully recover.”

Crean said he didn’t expect the Georgetown transfer’s injury to be long-term, however.

The usual suspect for a cause of such an injury would be senior center Tijan Jobe. a 7-foot, 255-pounder with some body control issues. Crean said, however, that Jobe wasn’t the culprit.

“Actually, it’s the other part of Team Africa right now,” Crean said. “Bawa Muniru got him, so he’s learning from Tijan. They’re buddies. Really, it was on his own team. He was setting a pick n’ roll in the corner. It was a very tightly contested play, and it was just an accident.”

Jobe, Crean said, is making improvements.

“He’s made enormous strides,” Crean said. “He really has. Tijan Jobe is challenging for a spot in the rotation. That will surprise those of you that saw us play last year. Once you see him play this year, it may not surprise you.”

I have a feeling Jobe and Bawa might come up big against the Wildcats, Hawkeyes, Golden Gophers, Wolverines, Badgers, and especially the Nittany Lions. Crean might be on to something here...

If Jobe has learned to foul, then he's good for five fouls, but that's about it.

Roy Hibbert is better, Jobe looks like he was trying to hack someone, the whole time he played last year. i hope he turns it around...if he did, we will have a badass big man rotation
