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

He recently decommitted from WVU and rattled off 4 teams of interest: Ohio State, Kentucky, Purdue, and Syracuse.

He's a PF from Ohio, and I've never heard of any connection to Purdue until I read he listed us as one of four schools he's definitely interested. Doesn't mean much, but maybe something to keep an eye on.

We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves."

Just thought it might increase your chances...

I was really just trying to dog DC a bit cuz he was giving me a hard time earlier.

I would love this thing to turn into the Moses thread. That would be awesome!

Anything you can do to help there?

No. Have we ever had a lengthy thread about one recruit who may or may not commit to us?

I don't think I could handle that stuff. Seems like theres a new "hot recruit" every week with some schools.

Well not that it's a bad thing, but you guys never really have any drama with your recruits it doesn't seem like. The last couple of years alone we've had the Eric Gordon fiasco, a recruit caught with drugs, and now this ordeal.

It's pretty entertaining stuff, really.

If I were you, I would keep a Sacajawea in my hands during the games. She must have been a dairy farmer.

And I'm happy about that. Why would anyone want drama with your recruits?

There's not exactly much going on right now for IU bball. It gives us something to put our interests in.

I love it...coming from behind and securing a visit. Sure, on some levels it would be better if we just signed the guys and were done with it, but to me this is wildly entertaining.
