i don't care to name drop (because you do enough of that for the entire board)...but you're full of it.

It's a crying shame that the young man has said over and over again why he transferred and MU fans call him a liar.  That is a shame.  Very sad.  Do I think things were going on at IU that made it very difficult on him?  Absolutely, in fact heard some of that directly from peeps at MU and IU.  Was a big part of that also being homesick, smaller situation, etc?  Yes. 

I thought we would be better than to insinuate the kid is a liar.  I'm taking him at his word, the rest of you can do what you wish in your anti coach screeds.  When I read stuff here where people say homesickness had NOTHING to do with it....it disgusts me.  Because people are calling him a liar.  Shameful.

"Part of the reason I came back was to play for a team in Wisconsin, to play for a team I grew up cheering for," Fischer said. "After I left (the state of Wisconsin) I didn't understand why I didn't stay home."

I may have missed it but I don't remember anyone saying homesickness had nothing to do with Lukes transfer. They were saying the drug and alcohol culture also had something to do with it.  I think the argument is about which is the bigger motivator. Which is a dumb thing to argue about if you think about it

It's a crying shame that you continue to put words in posters mouths and make yourself look like a fool in order to save face for your boyfriend.  That is a shame.  Very sad.  I thought we would be better than lying about what has been said here.

Once again, if there was wild and uncontrolled drug use constantly around me, I would be very uncomfortable and want to find myself a new situation.  Apparently that's what Luke felt as well.

In fact, I'll put it up here for you to dodge again, and you'll just vaguely call people out with nothing to back it up whatsoever.

Dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge.

Lol

Nice dodge. Par for the course.

Not one person said Luke was a liar, not once. I would've been homesick as well, if all everyone I was around did was do drugs and drink while I was in college and the person who was supposed to hold them accountable did nothing about it until an 18 year old decided to drink and then got behind the wheel of a car and ran over one of my teammates. But maybe that's just me.

you're too much.

I think it is sad people imply Luke is a liar, over and over again.  That's a shame.

Luke is Hoopaloop.

I have to admit, I did chuckle when I saw this. Only because of the timing.

[keefe]

So, Marquette gets it's first legitimate inside presence in almost two decades and you want to move him to the perimeter?  That's taking contrarian thinking a little too far for me.

Ok, Murray. I'll bite...Tanned Tommy to Ann Arbor???

The only concern I have is that Kentucky has been to four Final Fours in five years and IU's had its sixth drug- or alcohol-related offense since 2014.

Crean needs to get Cris Carter in there to talk to these IU guys about getting a "fall guy".

The IU Hoops Symposium.  Crean can namedrop, his players can stay off of the front page of the newspapers.  Everybody wins.

This is why a program like IU needs to give out as many walk-on slots as they do scholarships. That way each basketball player can have their own walk-on to crotch the booze for them. It's okay...Crean will get 'em out.

They are loving themselves some TC over at Peegs........How ironic that 1 poster used Chico's "just win baby" line against TC......lol

Haha wow!  They're harder on Crean over there than we are here!  This is great entertainment.

Can't wait to see TVJim's spin on this one.  "Just calling a spade a spade."

[tower912]

"Hire Sampson back, at least he could coach"   

College kids drink.   This actually doesn't bother me much.   And if it weren't for TV Jim, I probably wouldn't care that it happened again at IU under Crean.    I may have to take him off ignore to see if he even tries to spin out of this one.   Based on last year, he just ignores it, won't respond, and then will come back a few months later like it didn't happen and Crean is somehow still morally superior. 

[Lennys Tap]

My personal favorite from Peegs:

"Maybe if he ditched the tanning bed and the nerd glasses, got some properly fitting pants and didn't act like an ADD spaz after games his lousy coaching would be more tolerable."

How they love him in Bloomington. Watch out, though. He loaded this year (ranked 4th in the nation by Lindys) and has a four year starter and McDonald's AA at PG to do the coaching.
