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

IM LOVING IT! "Experts" are already picking VCU to play some of their infamous clamp down defense and take us out on Saturday. I think they all agree that if we shoot lights out, like we did last night, we're going to be tough to beat but VCU is still being picked to win. I couldn't be more thrilled that we're underdogs. We play our best ball as the underdog and if we make it to the Sweet 16, Im sure we'll be underdogs then as well. Keep it up experts and thank you!

GO HOOSIERS!!!

They should have just given us the 16 seed......ESPN barely even mentioning our win....is that because they all picked against us?

the best thing that can happen to this team is to continue telling them that they are supposed to lose....I love it!

The body knows what fighters don't: how to protect itself. A neck can only twist so far. Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism.

As a player, I'm not sure how much the experts picking against me would affect my play. After all, there are hundreds of 'experts' so some of them are bound to pick against you.

However, when some jackwagon like Mckines runs his mouth about how good he is and this and that, it would sure as hell motivate me to play better against him.

VCU is becoming the new Gonzaga. Interesting to see if they can pull off another upset against IU.

one things for sure, they won't beat IU by 20 and IU doesn't have 2 senior AA and BT POY on their roster.

Good point, and I doubt this VCU team is as good as the one that beat Kansas last year, (BT = big 12).

McKines is a dumbass! He got what he deserved... As far as the VCU game, I don't understand how we are the underdog in two consecutive games against a 13 seed and now a 12 seed. I think this IU team fuels off of what "experts" say, but to say that we are underdogs against a 12 seed is just dumb. VCU has beaten nobody all year. Just go look at there schedule.

keep backtracking and making veiled excuses for your beloved Toiletmaker's team of the century with 2 AA and BT POY and still couldn't get out of the NCAA second round. Losing by 20 LMAO

yeah, Porkchop Painter is just some coaching genius.

I noticed that too...there is NOTHING on IUs win on the ESPN front page. Everyone that had us picked in the first round, does not have us winning the second. You'd think we're the cinderella team here but I'm perfectly ok with this. One thing this team has not proven to be able to do is handle being on top. Did anyone notice that our down turn in the middle of the B1G season was when everyone began saying we have a chance at the B1G title. I really think that after 3 years of losing, we're acclimated to playing the underdog so any other stance for this team is uncharted waters. Whatever it takes!

GO HOOSIERS!!!
