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

Definitely IU. It would take an incredible IU performance combined with bad Purdue shooting for the game to be in doubt.

Without Hummel it could be closer than you'd think.

I think IU shot its wad in Bloomington the first time. I will be surprised if the game is ever in doubt in the second half. That said, I'll settle for a one point W.

We probably won't beat Northwestern so it doesn't really matter. Just saying.

Well, if you don't pull off the upset, at least tire out those purple kitties.

I am sure NW would be upset if IU won.

Yeah, I am voting Carmody for the anti-coach of the year. How do you lose 5 of your last 8 with two loses to PennState, a loss to Iowa, and one to Indiana (the bottom three in the conference). No offense to IUfans, but you know your team was not that good this year. Three more wins and they would have had the #5 seed in the BTT due to tiebreakers. Their finish was just plain horrible.

Pat Forde said this:

Big Ten

Player of the year: Evan Turner. See national award section.

Coach of the year: Bo Ryan (25), Wisconsin. Expectations were lowered for the Badgers this year, but keeping them down is like keeping helium down. Doesn't work. Not even losing big man Jon Leuer for nine games has kept Wisconsin from a 12th consecutive NCAA bid. Bo Ryan has Wisconsin on the verge of a 12th straight NCAA appearance.

Freshman of the year: Talk about an uninspiring field. The Minutes gives a tepid vote to Illinois' D.J. Richardson, who ended the regular season in a significant offensive slump (like most of his teammates).

Bust of the year: Michigan. The free fall from preseason Top 25 to 14-16 has been so dispiriting that coach John Beilein said this week that the Wolverines would turn down a CBI invitation. That's code for "Just end this misery now."

Tournament winner: Michigan State. With Purdue diminished by the Robbie Hummel injury, either the Spartans or Buckeyes should win this thing. Tom Izzo's team has had some puzzling performances over the past five weeks, but it also enters the tourney on a three-game winning streak.

Dark horse: Quite frankly, none of the lower-division teams bring any significant momentum into the tournament, so it's hard to find a spoiler. But take a flyer on Indiana to beat Northwestern for the second time in a week and then shock Purdue.

Early upset candidate: The Boilermakers are susceptible, if either the Wildcats or Hoosiers are good enough to beat them in the quarterfinals.

Any Purdue fan who would rather play NW than us needs their head checked.
