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

...and Camden chimes in to make sure we know IU just looked stupid...
John Wall would do the same thing to any of Purdue's guards too. That was a sick dunk.
He's really damn fast. Really doubt we see him back at UK next year.
...if LeBron says so then it's already done...

...if we can play an identical second half with a few more boards...this game is ours...
That's going to be pretty difficult to shoot that well again. I think the odds say our shooting percentage will go down, and we'll have to make-up for that with more boards and better defense.

i can honestly say that i am very impressed with the first half.

they forced a few shots they didnt need to, but they came back.

if they had not gotten on the small run of bad shots, they would be up by 5+ at the half, not down 1.


either way, i LOVE how the game is going. national exposure for our program and showing that building a team around a few guys can easily compete with the best in the country.

all we need now are those couple of recruits to fill the voids and we will be on our way.





side note - Hulls looks REALLY small

That's what I was thinking. How do you throw West Virginia in there either? The best team they've played was Texas A&M.

He's not the only one saying that. He seems to me to be the clear #1 prospect.

The funny thing is that right now, the teams with the two worst records (Nets and Wolves) don't need PGs. NJ has Harris and Minnesota drafted two PGs in the lottery last year. And on that thought:

Dear Larry Bird,

Please throw the season. Get the first pick. Become relevant again.

Sincerely,
Pacers fans everywhere

...i was laughing at how three of the four are coached by arguably three of the crookedest coaches in the country (Calipari, Huggins, and Self)...

Good first half for the Hoosiers offensively. I really like whats happening on the wing. Creek and Watford are playing very well.

You're not going to get to the line much if you're not penetrating. Both teams settling for the 3. Kentucky needs to take advantage of their big guys but seem unwilling to work the ball around. If they would put someone in Creek's face and keep him there IU would be forced to find another way to score.
