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

the whole 'star' ranking is driven by nba potential. and the games are not the same (though obviously the best 'nba skilled' players give a team a head start). pretty confident, please post otherwise if i am wrong, that kramer wasn't a five star...and the list could go on and on.

so, yeah, i'm excited to see VO out there.

Haha panchen, obviously you don't follow the board thread by thread necessarily (don't expect everyone to! lol). I am clearly joking when I bitch about "wasted schollies" and the "star system."

I'm openly referring to one or 2 jackass(es) on the board that "pose" as an IU fan, but have not once had anything positive to say about the school/sports teams.

Haha dedicated...

I'll keep the names of the fake fans anonymous. If you must know who, just read all the threads on this page and you'll get a good idea ;).

Kramer? I know he's one of those love him or hate him types... but putting that aside (and admitting that I can't stand him), I don't see him being anymore than a great role player that would never be worthy of 5-stars no matter how you rank him. 5-star athletes are difference makers irrespective of the talent around them, and while Kramer or VO could be the player that turns a good team into a great team, my own opinion is that they require great players around them to really shine.

i think we're pretty much saying the same thing here...albeit on different sides of the coin possibly.
