*Official* B1G Off-season Thread

I just find it comical that some believe Eastern, who averaged only a few points per game and hardly any minutes, is going to step in and dominate. But in the same breath, turn around and doubt that Fitzner will be able to do anything. You literally can’t make this stuff up. Puuuuuuure gold.

Here’s a hint: it’s the free board. Why you continue to post stuff from there is beyond me. I could find some equally idiotic things from the IU free board and post them here but I know it’s not representative of the majority of the fanbase so I just laugh at it and move on. There have been some pretty good ones on the free board about football about Purdue and Brohm that gave me a good chuckle.

Not excusing the disappointing tournament results over the years, because at some point he needs to have a breakthrough; but I think it's worth keeping in mind that in only three of his 10 tournament appearances at Purdue has he lost as the lower (better) seed - last year against No. 3 Texas Tech, in 2016 against ALR, and in 2011 against VCU).

I am not sure that stat is all that glowing. That can go negative in a couple of ways.

All of the people I pulled quotes from post on this board as well (except for Treed). Don’t act like they’re some random posters. They post here. They talk crap here about IU and people’s projections. Completely fair game.

What’s beyond me is how often you actually POST on IU’s free board. You post there more than I do.

It is pretty clear that Snu is obsessed with Purdue which is strange given how confident he is that IU will be better this year. Shouldn't he be obsessed with Michigan and MSU?

Its a rivalry on the Internet. Is SNU way over the top? Yep sure is but if you can’t see it and let it go that’s on you. SNUs a good dude

@boiler1987 is also a good dude and posts on a lot of Indiana boards around the Internet. He just isn’t as over the top.

I have no idea why I’m still amazed by the hyperbolic stupidity consistently slung by a few posters. It really makes them look petty and weak and clearly unable to have a mature conversation.
I'm seriously not trying to have an argument here, but what was hyperbolic about his comment? He was laughing at the posts made over there by Purdue fans. I seriously don't understand why that's such a big deal that he did it? If you find a IU fan starting a ridiculous thread and then multiple people jump in with the cheerleading....please bring it over here and make fun of it. Hell, I'll probably laugh with you based off some of the stupid fanboy posts I've seen on the IU boards.

Why’s it a big deal? I have a lot of family ties to IU and enjoy discussions with IU fans (save for some like gradman who’s a nut job haha).

Nothing. Just like there’s nothing wrong with calling out the stupidity of Purdue posters, who post here as well, on their own home board. My guess is they’re too scared to post their actual projections for the year here because they’re sooooo fanboy they know they’ll be laughed off the board.

I don’t think I have ever seen someone say the same shit over and over and over like Gradman. He needs to go to therapy to discuss his Fred Glass dislikeness
 
To me the worst Painter losses in the tournament have been to:

Kansas in the 2nd round with a 5th year Robbie. Had that game in the bag and literally choked it away.

Cincinatti in the first round: see above, choked it away.

Arkansas Little Rock: no explaination needed

I could live with the rest of them. Sure technically shouldn’t have gotten beat by VCU with Etwaun and Jajuan but they took everyone they played by storm that year in the tournament.

The Kansas blowout 2 years ago sucked but they were the better team and caught fire and then the next game they couldn’t throw it in the ocean against Oregon so water found its level.
 
Side note...Treed, MJ18, Methboy and proudopete going hard on the fanboy posts on GBI. It’s literally classic. If anyone is interested in pure idiocy and entertainment, check it out!

Couple classic lines I’ve read, Eastern is the best defender in the B10 if not the country. Purdue has three NBA players on the roster. Romeo Langford shouldn’t be considered in the eight best players between the two rosters. I mean, literally can’t make this stupid shit up.
You read the Purdue forums more than most Purdue fans do. #obsessed

Don't talk about the guy comparing Painter to Jay Wright like that

That Cincy one was tough to watch. Would always go to the same Bdubs on the Westside of Indy for the Thursday/Friday games and was solid mix of IU and Purdue fans.

Treed is outspoken, and I can certainly understanding her giving props to her son. But then she goes off on these tangents about how hard Nojel and his teammates are working and improving, and it's like she is seeing PU in a vacuum. Never mind the fact hat virtually every team in the country is working hard and concentrating on making themselves better.

It's like there is no perspective for the reality that there are undoubtedly teams in the B1G.working just as hard (or harder) and some of them bring much more talent to the table.I mean we can start with the teams that have been to a FF4 in this Century, much less within the last 20 yrs of the previous one...;)

If that is an accomplishment then I don't get how Otte21, JohnHoosier, or any other Purdue fan can asterisk Beilein and Michigan for taking care of business as the higher ranked see in this most recent tournament run.

It’s unbelievable with him haha.

He a premium member on Peegs and has been owned multiple times by Rabjohns because of some BS theory he comes up with. He made some comment about how TJD is soft and has a bad attitude and he got lit up pretty good. He gets super defensive.

Well one of those posters he listed is coming here and tagging SNU and I (proudopete) and another poster her (pig1960) is doubling down with pete. At the point it's not just the free board anymore and calling out pete's stupid posts anywhere is cool.

It blows my mind that I am still banned on Purdue's free board but SNU isn't. Good God how rustling were my 3 posts over there?

I was at that game at the Yum Center. Most pissed off I've ever been driving back up 65 after that game.
 
Oh I got named dropped by a sociopath over there.

@Mgkcbb please find all of these posts where I discuss the Purdue free board daily. I’ll wait. You’ll find a couple but not many. I lurk over there sure, you caught me. The fact you stalk my profile to see where I am looking says all I need to know about you.

You're just as pathetic as snu.
 
You literally provide nothing to this board besides weak Purdue flame bait or talk about me.

I was talking about this:

That doesn't matter, it will only take Painter a few months to turn him into the next Dirk Nowitzki. After he leads Painter to his first national title he will then spend the Summer teaching blind kids to see and feeding the homeless.
 
If that is an accomplishment then I don't get how Otte21, JohnHoosier, or any other Purdue fan can asterisk Beilein and Michigan for taking care of business as the higher ranked see in this most recent tournament run.
Never put an asterisk by it, just said I envy the draw they ended up with. They obviously deserved to be in the title game.
 
Yes, we get it. The whole board thinks you are a terrible poster (even Purdue fans) so that means everyone else just sucks and you're still awesome.
You're universally known on rivals as one of if not the worst posters in existence. I still remember when you tried(and failed miserably) to figure out my personal info. Haha wow what a weirdo you are.
