O$U and IU had trouble tonight

Trojan in his many personalities always posts like an eighth grader (apologies to all slandered eighth graders). Always arguing without any concessions. Acting like it's special that he thinks he's outing somebody's identity. Always claiming he has onside knowledge. Takes me back 55 years.

I never realized the 2 in your username represented the year you were born! Year 2. You must have seen some stuff. How have you stayed sane over the last 2019 years?
 
Hey now, you don’t want me to come in and take over as your boss. I’d have to “trim the fat” as they say.

Im not sure what you are referencing in terms of Kaufman, but those conversations definitely happened with Gillis although there is obviously no way to prove that. Feel free to think it’s a lie, it really doesn’t matter.
Trim the fat? What are you going to do, cut off your head? lol

And don't pretend you haven't been lying about both TKR and Gillis while pretending you were "in the room".

I’d have to get rid of you. Both a poor salesman and overweight.

I haven’t given any comments on Kaufman that could remotely be seen as lying. You are a fraud.
 
Trojan is baiting any Purdue fans over there by posting that Painter lied, and that TRK is unhappy, made a huge mistake, and will soon transfer. He posts it repeatedly even when refuted. That tells me he is just trolling. I’m glad he is destroying their board and not ours.

:cool:

Something wrong with that child. I'm sure he imagines he was in the room.
 
Trojan posted this past Thursday over on the other site that Morton was the worst player in the conference. He is also a terrible defender and horrendous scorer. Based upon Friday night's game, I think that the folks in West Lafayette and the Indiana State basketball team would disagree with his assessment.

As for his comments on TKR, the player's own public comments are on record disputing strongly the allegations that he made. TKR does not think that Painter "lied" to him and nothing suggests that the player is looking to transfer.

You have to realize that Trojan is trolling on the IU board. He is trying to bait Purdue fans that read that board into chicken fights. He doesn't believe that stuff, or at least I don't think he is that stupid. He just craves attention, so he goes off the deep end on any subject or player that is questionable of unproven just to get responses. It seems to give him "cred" with his fellow IU fans that are rabid Purdue haters, like Jimmy-go-IU.

You can draw your own conclusions as to his his psychological issues. He has been doing this for a while.

:cool:

Sour grapes. IU fans thought they were going to get both Morton and TKR.

When he grows up, Trojan will be one of those old, fat IU fans at high school games wearing an undersized IU t-shirt and booing at Purdue recruits.

You already have the old and fat part down!

Thanks for taking Morton off our hands! TKR was a miss, though.

TKR would rather ride the bench at Purdue than start for IU. Very smart kid. That should be all you need to know about the current situation. All the trash talk comes down to that.

"Taking Morton off your hands"? Morton is very basketball-savvy and smart. He is going to be a real thorn in the side for a good many opponents. I think you guys are going to have more than a few regrets that he didn't go to IU. I think many people will realize how sneaky good he is by the time he gets to be a junior.

I will go you one better and make a very tenuous prediction. I will bet Morton goes into coaching when he gets done playing. It would be really funny if he winds up replacing Painter when Matt retires. Just think, Painter wanted to go to IU and didn't get an offer. Now there is Morton, who got an offer but choose a better situation, and then he comes back to coach at your rival. Now that would be fun.

:cool:

I'm sure TKR didn't think redshirting was a remote possibility when he chose Purdue over IU. There was also a different coaching staff at IU. He wouldn't start at IU. He isn't currently better than Race Thompson or Geronimo.

We will have to agree to disagree on Morton. Especially considering IU's weakness in the backcourt is shooting.

Congrats on your future coach I guess?

TKR didn't have to redshirt. He could have let it all play out and taken his chances.

If you don't think your 3-headed coaching staff would take Morton, you're exposing your ignorance. Again. (Still?)

I didn't say Kaufman had to redshirt.

Archie wanted Morton, however I do not believe our current staff would have taken Morton heading into this year given the opportunity. He doesn't make sense at all given the rest of the roster.

I've been very clear on my thoughts on Morton dating back to before he committed to Purdue. Nothing he has done since then have changed those opinions. He is your 10th or 11th man for a reason.

Not sure why you would or would not "believe" redshirting was a possibility. No competitor believes he wouldn't compete. The statement is pointless.

The additional point remains, Morton is coming off the bench for a reason, and that reason is Purdue's incredible depth and talent. That doesn't exist at IU. Your 3-headed coaching staff would take his talent in a heartbeat.

I don't think Kaufman would have picked Purdue had he known he was going to redshirt (and I agree that was not known at the time).

Purdue does not have incredible talent at guard lol. Ivey yes. Newman and Sasha are solid. IT, Hunter, and Morton aren't great. There is not much difference between Morton and Galloway imo. I also think Galloway is a huge offensive liability and should not be playing. The only chance Morton would have at playing MIGHT be the backup 3 at IU which is exactly what he is doing at Purdue.

Well let's change this up:
TK would rather ride the bench at Purdue than play for IU.

To your point about playing time, you are probably correct in that he wouldn't start. I think he would be playing a lot at IU. He would have come in for Race, and probably played 15-20 minutes a game. He is that skilled and you guys are pretty thin there. Add to that my sneaking suspicion that Race is going to disappear later in the season and be much less effective that he seems to be currently. If that happens, Kaufman might find himself in a starting role.

The truth is that he had Virginia as his second choice. Archie's demise was a well known outcome during his recruitment, and while IU tried to bring in some sort of replacement they looked like a mess. I saw the 3-coach solution as a relatively smart choice for IU when conventional big-name coaches were not interested. However, the arrangement is still unproven.

In any case, I doubt the three-headed coaching monster would have made much difference as IU recruiting has not been all that great yet. Over all, your argument about Woodson not being in place during his recruitment amounts to nothing more than a "wish/what if" type statement. It's like saying you guys would have got Glen Robinson, Lew Alcindor, or Michal Jorden if Woodson had been recruiting them, back when. It's a non-starter.

has Thad Matta actually been on the bench every game thus far? I assume Fife has
 
That remains to be seen. He had one very inefficient game and 1 highly efficient game. Last year he definitely was though which is when those comments were made.
and the Ivey we saw vs Indiana St is the same Ivey I saw in 3 scrimmage games on Fan Day

As I already informed you, he wouldn't be playing over Geronimo this year either. Your comments on Race are almost as laughable as when you predicted last year that he wouldn't ever be more than a 3 ppg guy. Your track record isn't very good with Race Thompson predictions.

Saying Recruiting hasn't been good so far under Woodson is absolutely laughable. Two top 30 players and 3 other top 100 players. A couple weeks away from adding a 4th top 100 player. Recruiting has been stellar so far under Woodson.

I guess it's a matter of opinion. I would rather have TKR on my team than Race Thompson or Geronimo... and I think before it was announced that he was redshirting- the majority of IU fans would agree with me.

Geronimo is currently better and has a much higher upside than Kaufman.

If forced to choose between Race this year or 4 years of Kaufman, I would obviously take Kaufman, but Race is a significantly better player right now.

If you say so. Not sure that anyone on this board agrees with you though.

there's absolutely zero reasons to "believe" that.

He knew what the roster looked like.

He knew he would need to compete.

He was given the option to redshirt or not, and he chose to do it.

There's no reason to "believe" anything. The situation is what it is, and believing or not is irrelevant.

"Purdue does not have incredible talent at guard lol." What an idiotic statement. A future NBA draft (likely first-rounder), and guards that most any other program would take in a heartbeat.

I'll give you credit, you've certainly earned your clown reputation on this forum.

Let me ask you this-Does IU have any guards that you would trade Ivey, Stefanovic or Newman to get for a 1 year swap?

I do not think that they do.

Lol how many other teams would take Morton, IT, or hunter? None of those 3 would play at IU let alone for other top teams in the conference. Sasha is a solid role player. Newman has potential. Ivey is good.

You literally said "any other program" would take Sasha, IT, Morton, and Hunter, and you are calling me a clown. Would Duke take any of those 3? What about UK? Gonzaga? lol you are a clown.

I would take Xavier Johnson this year over Stefanovic and Newman.

1. Ivey
2. Johnson
3. Newman
4. Sasha
5. Kopp
6. Bates
7. Stewart
8. RP
9. IT
10. Hunter
11. Galloway
12. Morton

Dude, you don't have "questions", just really bad takes.
You stated that "Any other team" would take your "other guards" (meaning not Ivey). I asked if Duke, UK, Gonzaga, or Kansas would. Don't say use stupid blanket statements unless you want to be called on them.
