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

Not sure which games some of you are watching, but Elston doesn't get burned anymore than any other player on the team. In fact, I thought he played pretty good defense in the game against WISC. I thought he was easily the best all around player on the floor for IU that game.

I like Capo's toughness and he definitely has a shot as a future 'dirty work' guy, but he simply isn't skilled enough. He sets illegal screens on almost every play(sometimes the guards are at fault for this because they try to drive too early). He should be shot by a sniper the next time he takes a 3 point shot unless the shot clock or game clock is about to expire. Capo is the type of guy who should make your interior guys tougher in practice, but if he is logging a lot of minutes IU is in serious trouble.........oh wait.......nevermind.

i've got to disagree...at least on capo. as far as elston, i probably spoke too admiringly of him early on (at least for this year), but i still look at him and see absolutely tons of potential.

but with capo...1) he just needs to learn not to get caught setting the illegal screens, this is an art form and brian sloan can be brought in as a consultant and 2) i like the fact that capo can pop the occasional 3 ball...he's shown he can make it. i'm not saying he should hover around the arc or shoot more than 1 maybe 2 a game, but if he can bang down low and force the opposition to respect him outside, that's huge. compare that to TP who the opposition doesn't have to respect outside of 2 inches...or pretty much at all. his free throws before wisky were looking better as well.

I figured you would be proud to claim that quote. It's ok, any opinion by me usually draws immediate fire........other people say the same thing and suddenly all of the 'lols' and 'idiot' statements go away. It's funny.

haha I actually do agree with some of what you said in that quite. not all of it, but I do agree that Capo really shouldn't be a Big Ten starter right now.

Btw, how is B-Roy working out for your fantasy team lol. That hammy injury has to hurt. Although, I think he has 20+ points in his last 3 games.

My whole team is a bunch of pussies. Deron Williams and Roy hardly play. My bigs missed a bunch of time. Calderon can't even hit free throws anymore. I was in a tie for 2nd right before Roy got hurt, and now I'm a middle of the pack team. Not bad since I started out in the bottom 3 for the first month, and I've had to start a bunch of scrubs most of the season just to play catch up.

Kobe being out definitely hurt my points total, but strangely helped my FG % haha. My team is also middle of the pack. I doubt I move any higher than 4th. I was 3rd for awhile.

He can already finish bad. He needs to learn to finish good.
