  1. If you had titled it Purdoobie-doobie-doo, you probably would have been contacted by copyright lawyers and the site would have been shut down again.
  2. A woman was shopping at her local supermarket, where she selected: a half-gallon of 2% milk, a carton of eggs, a quart of orange juice, a head of romaine lettuce, a 2 lb. can of coffee, and a 1 lb. package of bacon. As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check out, a drunk standing behind her watched as she placed the items in front of the cashier. While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly stated, "You must be single." The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since she was indeed single. She looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about her selections that could have tipped off the drunk to her marital status. Curiosity getting the better of her, she said "Well, you know what, you're absolutely correct, but how on earth did you know that?" The drunk replied, "Cause you're ugly."
  3. Next time you decide to post something, just post the complete opposite of it and you may just get it.
  4. Both of my comments were directed at Purdue, not Caleb.
  5. I think it is obvious why he thought Purdue was sexy.
  6. Shows how much I paid attention last year.
  7. News to me as well. I just think Jerome was an Archie guy through and through. Only waited until after the semester ended and had time to discuss with his family before making the decision public. The staff have been too active in recruiting not to expect this.
  8. Patterson did not get his grades in order. He had the same path as Deron Davis, had the summer between HS and College to finish up course work. Deron did, Patterson did not. Why do you continue to blame Crean for that? If Crean could have or would have arranged a tutor for him, you would have b!tched about him cheating to get Patterson eligible. No. I don't consider Etherington, Hollowell, Perea, or Davis recruiting misses. Just because they didn't play as well as you thought they should have, does not make them misses. No coach bats 1.000 in recruiting, but Crean had waaaaay more recruiting successes, than misses, just like most coaches. But you continue to focus on the negatives.
  9. So, just because they transferred, you consider them a miss?
  10. From your list, the only misses that I see, i.e. recruits that should never have been offered a scholarship are: Jurkin, Devin Davis, Evan Gordon was a senior transfer - not sure I would put him in this category - but ok, April, Hoetzel, Priller, and Gelon. That is 7 out of 38 that would probably be considered recruiting misses.
  11. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
  12. Actually, while Crean was at IU, he was just as successful as Painter. Crean had 2 SOLO B1G championships and 3 Sweet 16's in his 9 years at IU. Painter had 1 shared title and 1 solo title and 3 Sweet 16's and he started at Purdue 3 years before Crean got to IU. IU fired Crean for that, where as Painter stays at no expectations PU. Patterson had no one but himself to blame. He had a scholarship to play, he just didn't get his grades in order. The stuff bolded above, you have 0 facts to prove any of it, so there is no point in debating your opinion. Why do you hate the guy so much? I am not upset he was fired, but I don't hate him for what he did here.
  13. Sweet 16, 2nd in Big East. Same year Crean won his last B1G title and went to the Sweet 16.
  14. Name 1 player that transferred from IU during Crean's tenure that went elsewhere and did anything. You can make an argument that he recruited over too much, but the players that transferred weren't huge losses. You are making mountains out of molehills due to your hatred of him. People like Painter because he isn't doing anything at Purdue. IF he had success, people would dislike him. Purdue basketball has no expectations and he is delivering just that.
  15. Care to share some examples of ex-players that talk crap about him? I am sure he has far more that love him. Every coach whiffs in recruiting and assistant coaches. Heck, RMK had Dakich as an assistant.
  16. How is Aiden playing in his golf league from there?
  17. They not hang a banner for the Helm's Championship?
  18. What if Sampson's team didn't do drugs and didn't get in trouble? What if Sampson threw his cell phone away when he got to IU?
