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

I'm more interested in guys I know will be playing for Purdue.

You guys got excited by quite a few players that never seem to make it to campus, and I never understand it, especially a guy who you guys knew nothing about a few weeks ago. I mean, do you even know if he's any good? Have you seen any game tape, heard any reviews from people who know what they're talking about?

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."

I've seen some game tape.

And let's be honest here, he wouldn't exactly have to be an inferno to be an upgrade over what he have at the 5 spot now. I'm sure he's raw offensively, but supposed to be electric on the defensive end. Which is what we lack as much as anything; hence the excitement.

Should we go Moses on this thread ?
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.
Is it lonely up there?

I know. It's like that douchebag who started a thread about Elijah Macon and Purdue.

And if every guy you ever posted about in recruiting threads made it to Purdue, you'd have a twenty five man roster.

I posted something about how he mentioned Purdue. Just a heads up for people if they read something that this is a guy mentioning Purdue.

We didn't go off the deep end about the guy. Hell, nobody actually even responded about the player. Just a bunch of flames, first started an IU fan (one that claims he's never done such a thing).

With all due respect, fuck you. You were making fun of me about Bieber earlier in the day.

What do you say about people getting off their high horse?

In a thread that was already off topic. This was the first response to a post that was trying to be informative.

You've been on your high horse about such matters. So maybe you should follow up what you preach.

I don't preach it brother, you do. I've never gotten on anyone about their high horse.

So if a thread is off topic, then that's your green flag to make fun of me? At least you're logical!
