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've been watching the NCAA Tip-Off show on TRUtv since it came on nearly an hour ago. I've not seen one mention of the IU game as of yet.
Been watching TRUtv upstairs in the office for 3 hours now. Granted, I haven't been on the other stations, but still not a word on this Network.

the best thing that can happen to this team is to continue telling them that they are supposed to lose....I love it!
If everyone is picking against us vs. VCU, then I'm pretty sure they'll be picking against us every game from here on... :)

I don't think I've ever seen 1 board with a bigger group of homers. Absolutely delusional. I can't believe a coaches goal is the sweet 16. Pathetic.

they obviously have no idea who we are this year...

these are qoutes from that site.....


"I feel better going against Ind than I did Which st? Lost their pt gaurd and not very deep on the bench-just what Dr Smart ordered!"

"looked at a few of their boxscores - does not look like they play much def. Hardly any steals or large turnover margins?

"They have a very short bench. Hope they tire easy? I like our chances"

"I think we can turn Indiana over and speed the game up and that usually leads to good things for the Rams."

"They started slow against a very bad looking NMSU team."

"Indiana is on life support. Indiana is geriatric. Indiana has never DREAMED OF, much less seen, the kind of basketball we play. Indiana is
g o i n g

d
o
w
n.
"

"From scanning their forums it seems like they are just more cocky Kansas-type fans who think they'll run over, under, and through our press for wide-open 3s and layups."

"...Indy is good, but they were VERY slopply with the ball last night when they sped the game up"

"Outside of Zeller I really wasn't impressed with what they had to offer and thought the game was sloppy on both sides. Obviously, New Mex was just down right bad for most of the game. I think we handle them by 10 (assuming we don't give up a lead).''

"You know Indiana will try to slow it down"



I cant wait for this game tomorrow

If they think we are going to try and slow down the game then they aren't a very smart fanbase. Not saying we are gonna run a Rick Patino run and gun type of game but i think we could beat this team a number of ways. I heard what Shocka Smart had to say about IU the other night when they interviewed him. Sounded like his focus was on Hulls and Zeller. The thing is when you start keying on them, we have other players that can take over. I think Watford, Oladipo, and Sheehey could be huge in this game. And there's no way they are going to stop Zeller consistently. If we can take care of the ball it could be a long night for Shocka Smart and the Rams.

I'm a little concerned with their pressure if we can take care of the ball the entire game and limit turnovers I think we win by double digits

hilarious. We were up by 10 at the 15 minute TV timeout. What box score are they looking at?

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!!!
Just a word from an experienced fan, don't take VCU lightly. They whipped our ass last year.

I just won an IU/Purdue 2nd round parlay! IU is now a 6 point favorite but I still like them at -6. VCU doesn't have the weapons they had last year plus I think IU will not only handle the pressue but take advantage of it. I foresee a lot of fast break Zeller dunks.

If your running a press it can be your best friend or your worst nightmare. IU does best in transition. Jordy, VO, Sheehey, and Zeller can all run the floor. Yeah they could put somebody quick on him but then he just posts him up. Put their 7 footer out there and Zeller beats him with his quickness and defense. I can't wait till he dunks on one of their 6'9'' guys.

I always tell people what makes Zeller so great are 2 things. 1) The way he runs the floor and gets back in transition and 2) his interior passing ability.

He just kills teams in transition

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.

:owned:
Good point, and I doubt this VCU team is as good as the one that beat Kansas last year, (BT = big 12).
In reality, this VCU team during the regular season was better than last year's team. Last year's group was 23-11 in the regular season and won neither the CAA regular season or conference tourney title and had to play in the tourney play in game. This year's team was 28-6 in the regular season and won the CAA tourney.
