Eastern decision?

Wow, I remember my first time name calling, that said, I sure do!....


Robbie Hummel, Jajuan Johnson, E'twaun Moore, The BIG DOG, arguably the best college basketball player EVER to play the game, the REAL Glen Robinson (see my profile picture with ALL those trophies..., yeah, that guy!), Cuonzo Martin, Brian Cardinal, Brad Miller, Carl Landry, Rick Mount (arguably the best shooter to ever play the game), and John Wooden, the best head coach of all time...

Wow, that was easy, and it took about 2 minutes...


Anybody else want to look like an idiot? Even though posting on the rival teams board pretty much does insinuates your obsession with our program and makes you look like an idiot all by itself... And then getting owned on 2 posts...

Your argument premise is flawed. You list great players who played at Purdue in the past, and somehow this proves that Purdue is great at recruiting players (like Eastern, remember the original point of this post) who commit or decide late in the process. Listing all these names is off-topic and proves/ shows nothing. Nor does listing guys who didn't pick Purdue. The entire premise is off.

But you really lose credibility with this quote; you glasses are clearly black and gold colored. "The BIG DOG, arguably the best college basketball player EVER to play the game." I'm a Glen fan and he definitely deserved player of the year and all those awards, but really, he isn't even close to one of the top ten or twenty college players of all time, not at all. You really come off as a silly fan making that statement.

This site lists the 100 college players of all-time. He didn't even make the top 100. http://www.americasbestonline.com/Cbasketball.htm

ESPN listed the top 75; sorry, he didn't make the top 75. http://www.espn.com/ncb/feature/video/_/page/Top75players/ncaa-75-college-basketball

So really, you can't intelligently debate that Glen is "arguably the best college player ever to play the game". In fact, I would argue that's he's not even the best player in the history of Purdue, great as he was.

I would also argue that you're a great Purdue fan, but you love of Purdue has blinded your perspective on the history of college basketball more than a little bit.

First off, a whole lot of Purdue fans have hoosier in their name...Because that's just logical, right? Believing that is about as absurd as believing Hillary has never lied.

Second, after skimming through the thread, this topic had NOTHING to do with Painter and recruiting... If you're going to try to act smart, do the 30 seconds of assurance reading prior to making yourself look like an idiot for not once, but twice in the past hour or so.

Third, I give you credit for one thing... it takes a lot of balls for someone as ugly as you to degrade ANY human being by any means necessary...


I'm going to save you some embarrassment and not respond to your next idiotic post that is probably within the next 10 minutes.

So your references are a site nobody has ever heard of before, and ESPN, the same company that thinks Colin Kaepernick deserves an espy award..

Secondly, the idiot I was replying to was naming random good players who didn't pick Purdue, thus, leading me to name random greats who did.. See how that works?

Also, after looking at just the picture of the ESPN site you referenced, I seen Christian Laetner.. don't get me wrong, he was a great player, i watched him a lot growing up,but it's not even close to compare him to big dog... the eye test alone tells you that... Purdue was a 8-10 seed without big dog the year Duke won.. Duke still would of had a really good team without Laetner. if they think he was better than Glen, they're idiots.

Damn, I thought you'd be a little more conclusive than that when I seen the short story you typed.

Vile: I'm not going to argue who is the best ever, who knows?? But I did want to point out that the ESPN list is the top 75 players in the tournament. Not college career.

The other link you give for the top 100 of all time does have G Rob listed so not sure that is a good one for your argument.

They weren't random at all. They were all players from the past few years that painter has whiffed on. You started naming players from over 50 years ago. Apparently the topic at hand was too difficult for you to grasp.

Only a moron would blame them solely on the coach.

I'm not biased at all with the thought of big dog as a top player of all time. He flopped in the nba given his high regard due to injuries and other things. Still a dang good nba player, but that's off topic.

I know many many many iu guys who would dispute your claim on the big dog also. Link all you want I remember it

I love that you guys keep bringing up Swanigan as a good example, but what it really shows is that Painter is 1 for 3 (Harris and G-Rob III) when recruiting players whose parents or guardians were former athletes at Purdue. One for three with the children of ex-athletes, do you really see that as good recruiting success, because I sure don't.
Click to expand...
you missed Kendal Stephens, so that makes it 2-4. We didn't have a scholly to give to G-Rob 3, so I am not sure that counts. Harris was los by our administration not paying attention to past athletes. Nothing to do with Painter.

So dispute with me. Are you saying Rick Mount ISN'T arguably the greatest SHOOTER of all time? I know I can make an ARGUMENT saying he is, hence the word arguably.

Big Dog completely dominated the college ranks at Purdue. I've still never seen someone so dominant in my life at the college level. The guy averaged 30+ points, 10+ rbs in 93-94. Without him, that team is still solid, but is probably near a 10 seed.

And John Wooden is known as the greatest coach ever in NCAA by nearly all accounts and sources. I've yet to see one that says otherwise.


So please, explain to me, why do these 3 opinions lose validity? I'm really interested to know why you think that...

It's like saying Brady and Belichick aren't the best QB and coach to ever play in the NFL because they're on the same team and it's impossible for a team to have multiple GOATs. I dislike them a lot, but respect the hell out of their winning mentality, and anyone can make an argument saying they are the best QB and coach of all time.
 
"When will he be choosing his school?"

My guess would be within the next week or two. If not by then, Eastern will probably decide shortly after Gary Trent, Jr. makes his decision.

Actual facts are always the bane of the negatwitts' existence. They always seem to ignore them when trying to make an argument.

Besides, vilepoopster isn't even a Boiler. He was outted a while back as just an iu troll looking for attention.

When I think of ALL TIME GREATS I think of Wilt, Kareem, Walton, Oscar R., Magic, Bird, Duncan, the Big Dog was good but not even remotely on the level of the names I just mentioned. No one that wasn't a Purdue fan would ever bring up Rick Mount in a greatest shooter competition.

I'm not going to discuss Wooden we all know he was a stud.

I don't know what coolaid you have been drinking but you apparently do not watch much college basketball.

How hard is it to inform yourself on very little information before making yourself look like an idiot? It's not hard nowadays with the power all at our finger tips.

So basically... You have nothing to argue,, except the typical, backed up in a corner, spin-move, "you don't know anything"?

You must hang out with johnhoosier, who "apparently" is a Purdue fan...

How many people of the ones that I named are worse than the Big Dog?

Also Bird led Indiana State to the national championship and his core was not any worse than Robinsons.

You may get love since this is a Purdue board but my statements reflect the general population that doesn't drink koolaid.
