  • Bob Knight Commencement Speech
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

Not sure if this has been posted before, but I came across this and thought some would be interested in viewing. At first I thought it was going to be pretty cheesy, but Coach makes some really good points and teaches some valuable lessons. Overall, pretty good!

You could understand Holtz's speech? Were the folks in the front row wearing rain gear?
