OT.....Merry Christmas Boilers

Boiler Buck
Merry Christmas!!

Long ago Jesus who existed at creation, was given by God through the Virgin Mary in a miraculous birth to then become a sacrifice for every Man.....through His birth, life, death and resurrection.

All we have to do to live forever with him are 3 things.....it's as simple as A, B ,C

A.....Admit you are a sinner and repent (turn away) from your sin.

B......Believe Jesus is the son of God and that he came to be a sacrifice for sin, once and for all

C.......Commit to Him as your savior by putting your trust in Him....and then live by His tenants in the Bible.

Don't have to clean up your life first. Come as you are. If you are willing it's simple.......say this prayer by Billy Graham...

"Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart and life".

And then follow Him.
Merry Christmas
Have a great Holiday and enjoy times with your friends and family

OK, now that evidence is out that he is undocumented, I accept that point.

But.... Biden deported undocumented people at a faster rate than Trump (which I don't especially like, but whatever). And crime rates by undocumented people tend to be lower than by U.S.-born citizens.

Deportations by ICE jumped to 10-year high in 2024, surpassing Trump-era peak

ICE deported more than a quarter-million unauthorized immigrants in fiscal year 2024, the highest tally in a decade.

The evidence was out on many news stations and radio where I heard it first.........just not CNN. You might someday consider a more accurate news source than CNN who often prefer lib narrative over real news.

One more point. There was a sligft uptick in crime a couple of years ago, but it is from all-time lows. The actual peak was in the early 1990s. Covid unrest led to a temporary increase in violent crime, but it appears to be leveling off.

Happy holidays, y'all.

There’s more crime now than ever. People are stealing from the retailers at an alarming rate. Noting is done unless it exceeds a certain dollar amount. We see theft of packages off of people’s porches on the news nightly. I see theft on self checking in the grocery and retail stores every time I go.

Merry Christmas!

Eva Hudson named AVCA Mdiwest Player of the Year

B
It was just formally announced the addition of transfer Bianka Lulic. I really like this signing - really an upgrade to what Carr gave us. The portal gives just as much as it may take away! Impressive run by Shondell to add 4 impact transfers in a very short amount of time. This really leads me to believe that there wasn't anything truly wrong with the program. Those kids just wanted out - for whatever reason. The loss of Colvin and Hudson hurts - but we may still be a top 25 team next year with these additions. It's going to really depend on how good our rookies are right out of the gate.

Who follows Kramer and Jordan on X?

True, but it hasn’t been every game. They have both had some excellent games. Most players struggle with inconsistency when they step into a major role. Look at Loyer last season. Even Ivey and Carsen Edwards had their ups and downs. Development often doesn’t appear linear and games like the Auburn can be an important learning experience. Heide and Colvin are both very talented players and I expect to see them emerge as the season goes on.

Heide and Colvin are a huge disappointment as is Furst. After seeing their faults last year, and discussing those with a few on here, they haven't progressed the way I thought they had the first of the season. I also thought Berg would replace Edey and would be a huge contributor this year, but it's not occurred, and TKR needs to lead by example.

Maybe its time to put the bench guys in and see if they play better as a unit.

Helton at WKU

Rough going in BG for Helton right now. Got blown out in the conference title game and lost to JMU by 10 in their bowl. Now they are having a portal exodus like us. Their QB and top returning receiver, both KY natives, went to FAU. And a ton more guys are in the portal. He may be in trouble.

I don’t follow G5 football… but isn’t this normal ? Don’t they just go raid the next division down after they get raided ?

IU did not deserve to be in CFP. Great article by USA Today

TC4THREE said:
I'm against unnecessary blowouts. I'm for giving power conference champions a shot. If blowouts occur there, so be it. I don't need or want to see the fourth best team from any conference blown out.

You can argue this any way you want. The facts remains that IU paid to ensure a weak schedule, was beaten soundly in their only game of consequence, and was wrongly awarded a playoff spot. The result supports that. Your justifications don't matter.
Click to expand...
They paid to have 3 wins. Hey still played 9 conference games. It just happens that Nebraska fell off after the IU game, Northwestern, Maryland, Michigan, Washington all fell off from last season. Indiana has no power there but they took care of business and blew the doors off everyone on the schedule besides Michigan and Ohio State. Indiana without a doubt deserved where they got to by doing what the teams behind them couldn't do, WIN.

Klare to OSU

I can’t see him being a starter at OSU. I can see him receiving more money. It looks to me more like he jumped off a sinking ship and into a winning team. I believe he wanted OSU more than they really wanted him.
Click to expand...
Why do you believe those things?

Why would OSU throw a big NIL check at him to put him on their practice squad?

The ship already sank, and we're rebuilding it. He left because of money and opportunity.

They should have hired Alford and were going to until a certain trustee told Myles that they better hire a minority or else. Steve would have continued to recruit as Knight did and IU would have at least one more Natty appearance if not a couple.

I used to think that he would’ve been a mediocre at best choice, but now I tend to agree with you, and it’s almost certain that he would’ve been far better than the eight years they just went through.

Check out the win loss columns for an inherently poor UNLV program over the past two seasons that doesn't have the funds or number of alumni that Purdue has and that should answer 75% of your question...

Word on the street is that Odom asked for collective support after explaining how he spent the UNLV money over the past two years.
Team need and player assessments alone will be greatly improved with Odom.

Most of the key guys on Indiana's defense (incl all three 1st team All-B1G), both starting wide receivers, the majority of the offensive line, and nine of the ten top assistant coaches including both coordinators are returning. A ton will depend on whether Mendoza and Hemby pop for IU this week; both would be a talent upgrade.

At Oregon, at PSU, and at Iowa are very tough games, but there's no reason to believe they'll lose the three early season cupcake games or to the mid/lower level B1G teams, especially at home and especially when looking at what they did to those teams the past year. Based on expectations they'll likely be favored by at least a touchdown in 9 of 12 games and will be about a touchdown (or a little more) underdog in the other three.

Face it, they are no different than us. They could lose 4 or 5 games with a tougher schedule and still have a successful season....
