No, they don’t say IU sucks collectively. When I was in school nobody said IU sucks since there were bigger problems happening. As time when on it seemed more and more people were distracted and not aware that IU sucked. Ignorance set in and it became more obvious that far too many people were unaware the IU sucked and was now a potential threat to intelligent life was everywhere we looked. As true throughout history someone took the first step to make people aware of this huge, growing problem and try to correct it before it was too late.
Did you take Consumer Psych with the Prof that made a ton consulting with Kellogs? Can;t remember his name, but I had dinner with he and his wife several times. A diamond for Purdue's Psych dept.
No...just thought the background explaining the need for the chant was due knowing some of the younger ones possibly not knowing the origin and evolution. Don't tell anyone, but my background in abnormal psychology is limited to a few writings outside this place.
I just had the usual plus one Soc 100, Psy 120 and Social Psy 350
abnormal Psych was a great class. I still have the textbook. 54 years later ... and no, I have not opened it in 54 yearsNo...just thought the background explaining the need for the chant was due knowing some of the younger ones possibly not knowing the origin and evolution.

Actually, I've experienced some doctors out of IUPUI that were very reasonable and Kim has shared a really good guy that was maybe Crean's best friend that handled graduation at IU to be reasonable and so there are some, and I think after some time the actions of many others dissipate and become responsible citizens outside the indoctrination prevalent into so many course offerings at a school that offers so many subjective courses.
I recall an abnormal psych class. Big lecture hall. Lots of girls in short skirts (it was the 70’s). The prof came out and jumped behind the microphone, looked a little nuts with hair all eschew, and said,”This is the class about sex and crazy people!”. He got my attention…
I suspect the pressure supplied at IU will be that of potential falling beams, fans tripping you, fans generally pulling the hair on your leg when taking the ball out of bounds and threatening you like the 75 year old man did to Ryan Cline. Sure IU will apply defensive pressure as well and maybe some offensive pressure and so fear of injury is a secondary pressure not felt in the tourney. There you only hae to win
and definitely bring back Knight. That worked out well.
Yes, mine was in a huge lecture hall too ... a few years before your and not the same Prof, but similar skirts. Them were the days!!!
I flew to Phoenix sitting next to a couple who were both physicians in Indy. They were both O$U grads. They were aghast at their IU coworkers who worshiped the idols in their offices. They loved O$U, but not like they were in a cult. They honestly had minor fear of the IU people. Wondering if they could be trusted.
Someone replied and asked “they aren’t good enough to be recruited by IU but some how they can start for the #1 team in the country?”
I had one dentist that way and another that quit and just started flying people around that was okay. My dentist today went to Purdue for a year and he is sane. My previous doctor was great and I have no idea where he went to school. Dad was an engineer. The one before that was a ME from Purdue until he went back to school and he was sane. Guy that did my hip replacement was fine and his dad was an engineer and mom...can't recall both Purdue grads. Some place sports at an appropriate level and don't need their esteem boosted by some player or team.

The "IU SUCKS" chant at games was discouraged by Purdue. You all may not be able to hear it, but when the band plays Hail Fire, my neighbors probably hear me yell "IU SUCKS" at my TV.
Yeah well I'm generally like Mount Vesuvius simmering below, but when Mason was called for a block rather than getting a very clear charge there was a minor eruption when he was setting up for the double just outside the lane at mid post that I didn't think was that hard of a call...and there was a WTF rather loud and it wasn't Why The Face.
One of my minors was Psychology. Abnormal was my favorite.
There are some things in life that a person sometimes comes across that make your head spin. Sometimes there is no rational discourse that can be had, and you just hope they don't vote since you can see they are driven by emotion more than logic while obviously void of all relevant knowledge in particular domain in question...but did that stop the expression???? Welcome to the Internet...
I took 3 Psych classes after 102. Loved them all. Abnormal was really interesting. The Prof was one strange dude. Psychology of Human Sexuality was the wildest. In class porno movies. Psychology of Personality helped me understand why women found (find?) me so repulsive.
That class helped me too. As the prof went through the material on. psychopaths and sociopaths, I suddenly realized what was going on in the head of my past girl friend. I think I dodged a bullet in getting away from her!
That's unfortunate that someone was concerned about hurting some iu fans feelings. It was funny. Let kids be kids. Best of all, iu people absolutely hated it.
That was definitely a Why The Face moment. I may never understand how a referee can be standing a few feet from a play and get an obvious call wrong. Since this thread has meandered into psychology, I would love to see a study where referees are shown video of their blown calls and asked to explain what they saw in the moment, and after seeing it on video, do they still believe it was the correct call.
I believe it is directly tied to, as you alluded, the ranking services.
