Maybe we're gunshy, or maybe we're rightly sensing that he's pulling the same "where my Indiana fans at" junk that we've seen from Brooks, Garland, etc. The thing is, no reason for us not to completely support him and give him some hype if it may help our chances to land him. And if he goes elsewhere? Fine. We're adults. We can handle it. Yep. I'm getting really good at handling major recruits choose elsewhere. Haha...

They don’t even have a campus venue. They play at the FedEx Forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he goes elsewhere? Fine. We're adults. We can handle it. Yeah as well. However a big difference here. In terms of Garland.... it was Rabby, who is part of Peegs who led us down the rabbit hole. With his posts and travels following Garland.... not the recruit himself. Not with standing that perhaps this recruit did not pick up a thing from Rabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I am saying is that, on Hoosier Sports Nation one can decide what is being fed to them is real or not..... and there is no charge for that.... Unlike the so called "Professionals" over at Peegs. Those guys get paid for a living, doing what they are doing. Just think of the overhead to conduct a board like that. Yet the guys running Hoosier Sports Nation... though there is a cost involved....offer this board up to members .... free of charge... simply because of their love of all that is IU. Have you ever seen an advertisement on this board.... like they have on Peegs... or other name less IU boards ? I rest my case. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also chose to be the mouthpiece for the Brooks family with the whole thing about IU fans being mean on Twitter. That never had anything to do with the recruiting decision but the Brooks family asked them to say something publicly, and they obliged, making IU fans look like idiots in the process.
