DWB Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) Remember guys, the IU Twitter feed has to be manned by a complete neophite. Whoever it is doesn't have the access or "authority" or skills, or permission to post what many of us would like to see. There must be a severe filter imposed by someone on what can and cannot be posted. (and probably for good reason, but I think it's been restricted too much IMO) With the Cuban media center, the SID, and countless others, there should be a steady stream of clips, PR's, status updates. But there aren't. I seriously doubt if the IU Twitter guy is in the weight room taking all those clips to post. I suspect he's getting them from one of the players, or CM's staff.

IUFLA Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 Back to the best place to play a college basketball game, according Bill Self it's Indiana... Courtesy of our guy @The Daily Hoosier “The best home court that I’ve ever been to was Indiana,” Self said. I said, ‘Hey, just sit back and relax and just take it all in because we ain’t changing it today.’ And to me, that’s the loudest. I mean you couldn’t talk. Indiana was the best.” 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying IU has had a cupcake non conf schedule for quite some time is an understatement. I am all for finding reasons to make fun of PU but this argument a little weak There is never a bad reason to make fun of Turdue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indiana was the best.” I'm diving into the memory bank here but I think it was an early Sunday start too with Gus and Rafferty on the call. Nice of Self to say....because as we all know no place is louder. Several other programs have their moments but nobody is louder when the Hoosiers are good and firing on all cylinders like that day. Side note...it didn't come out to later but Coverdale's Mom was suffering from Alzheimer's (might have been early on) but he was pointing up to the crowd a few times. Rafferty mentioned him having some juice that day....I think he kept pointing up because he wasn't sure if his Mom was going to remember that ever again. Someone can correct me on those details but I think it's pretty close. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly, all three of the Turdue fans I can think of that interact here really do a pretty good job of navigating enemy territory.

BobSaccamanno Posted July 2, 2022 Report Share Posted July 2, 2022 We are all friends here. We’ve got a core of posters that’s been here for years and years. There is one truth to this board as reliable as anything. It wouldn’t be a summer without a hotly contested debate on weight training. Sand pits. Lifting. This year it’s a pool video. Lol. If it didn’t happen, I’d be worried about the health of the board. I think I say this every year. I’m glad there’s something going on with the board even in June and July! For us to even have active threads now is awesome. Honestly that’s probably all the IU Twitter is thinking about. Giving us a tad bit of content even if it’s meaningless. Not a whole heck of a lot to think about right now. But as a board, we have a rhythm to find something to talk about 12 months a year. Cheers to everyone for that. I think it’s a good thing. Better than a dead board over the summer. IMO. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're bringing in powerhouses Ball State, Davidson, and Illinois State for the inaugural Indy Classic Basketball Showcase. Brad Davidson? By himself??? Not sure he can beat Purdue by himself, but maybe if Tyra plays there'd be a better chance.....just sayin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
