  • What player pisses you off the most?
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

this is a no contest in my book...pritchard...and it's not even remotely close. why?

1 - he has been gifted a major role at a major program and has shown absolutely zero commitment to doing what it takes to improve his game (especially obvious and relevant pertaining to the off-season). as per this criteria - as far as a jones and dumes go, i have actually seen some improvement, at times, from last year. i have seen absolutely none from pritchard.

2 - without even putting in a ton of time, you'd think he could at least mentally come to play as a big instead of a 6'4" 170 lb kid. his lack of any range, literally, is astounding. he has so little athleticism, instead of grabbing a loose ball and starting a break he watches it go out of bounds. he is probably my least liked hoosier of all time. well, neil reid may sneak in there...

3 - i think rivers wins a free throw shooting contest between the two hands down...not even close. and rivers at least offers some, as remote as it may be, potential.

it's really criteria no. 1 that "pisses me off" the most. jones i would have voted for at this point last season, but he really has improved...it's just that he's got that much further to go. dumes hasn't had the opportunities this year on the whole to solidify his claim to the title. and jobe is purely a non-entity. so...for "pissing me off", it's all tommy p.

on this note, why don't capo, bawa and for the love of buddha elston get tons more minutes...especially in a game like ohio state. so we're not going to win much this year...given. but that doesn't mean we should do everything possible to limit our bigs development going into next season. this fact is really starting to piss me off as well.

cheers from the burma border and go hoosiers...
Do you think that Dumes and Pritchard struggle because MAYBE the last 2 seasons have finally made them realize that after college it is over for them? I really think these 2 could possibly be the types that have always been told they were better players than they actually are or ever were and they are naive enough to have believed they actually had a shot at playing at the next level. Just a thought and it really makes me laugh....Pritchard in the NBA.... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Maybe Dumes came to the realization that he will probably be selling insurance this time next year or doing game commentary for high school games on some remote AM station

Sorry Brum, I don't understand the lycan reference, and am too lazy to google it.

Do we dare do a post like this now? Seems dangerous... may be too polarizing to the board...

LETS DO IT! BRING ON DIVISION!

Maurice Creek........we need another assassin.

My real answer is probably Pritchard. Love the kid for hanging with us thru the bad times but the fact remains that he is just not a B1G caliber player. I do wish him well in all of his future endeavors but I will not miss him when he is gone.

Thank you much for your contributions in restoring our great program Mr. Pritchard. I honestly hope that you get all that you deserve in life.


All others have exceeded my expectations in their roles enoungh that I really don't feel any need to bash a single one of them.
