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

You still think Kansas St. is good?
“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat 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."

I think they are talented and well coached. I think come tournament time they will be pretty good. Problem is Spradling. I remember last year the PG on my high school team completely shut him down and he is walking on a Drake, I've known for a while that Spradling isn't good

Well at the least I think it's obvious they aren't one of the few D1 teams we are more talented than as many people thought before the season. I mean I don't blame people. Colorado is almost never good and we obviously knew nothing about them.

Saw this posted on Scout and I think it has some merit so I'll copy it over here.

This was posted by Ken Bikoff over on Peegs P,and I personally found it interesting.People can draw their own inferences from it,but I always think there is a place for facts in what is too often an emotional discussion.

We're all IU fans,or most of us at least,and reasonable people can disagree.I think that some of the negative posters that pop up after a loss may in fact be trolls,with no other purpose but to stir things up and sew discord.It's kind of the nature of the beast that trolls are going to post negatively regarding IU,so sometimes it's a little hard to distinguish between genuine fans with legitimate concerns,and trolls who are not IU fans and wish nothing but ill will for IU and IU fans...

At any rate here is Ken's research,which should provide a starting point for some discussion.
================================================== ==========================

The win-loss record of the teams IU has lost to this season is a combined 97-31, a winning percentage of .758. Only Penn State and Northern Iowa have six or more losses. The teams have an average RPI of 51.8, and they range from No. 6 (Kentucky) to No. 109 (Northern Iowa).


40 Boston College 13-4
6 Kentucky 13-3
86 Northern Iowa 11-6
109 Colorado 12-4
66 Penn State 10-6
13 Ohio State 16-0
34 Minnesota 12-4
60 Northwestern 10-4

Colorado has shown themselves to be a good team. The IU loss definitely looks better.

There was a never a question to me on the talent of opposing teams. But, it's not as if half these games shouldn't have been 50/50 splits, so you'd think we'd at least pull out a win here or there. So far, we haven't beat anything except cupcakes.

Even though you are a Boiler fan, I like your style. Katy Perry, IMO, is hot and when she puts those whip cream cans on her cans, it is awesome. The video is really hot as well. She is hotter, IMO, than Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift. ;)

You have an odd taste in women.

I knew you would respond, but it was a lot sooner than I expected. I agree with DC, you have an odd taste in women. I can understand Carrie Underwood, but Taylor Swift is not attractive at all, bairly cute if that.

But I knew I would get a remark from you. Like giving you a hard time. ;)

I know you do, although we're not supposed to talk about them in the forums; Bri will yell at me.

There's a lot more to being "hot" than just looks once you start learning things about people....
