Purdue Post Game Thread

I'm bias, I grew up with Alex and know his family. However, if Bozich wants info he has to watch what he says about the program. I'm sure if you talked with him privately his tone is a little different than what is posted on Inside the Hall.

About Dakich, he's going to poke and agitate to get more listeners. I don't know what this particular incident is about but when Dakich goes into his rants I wish he would give more info. He always dips his toes in but rarely tells all.

I actually love ITH and the work Alex does keeping that site going. It's my go-to for actual IU journalistic work. I just see him making a lot of snarky comments on twitter at and about other journalists, and not many people do that.

The bolded is true for all those IU outlets.  Their ability to get information depends entirely on not biting the hand that feeds them, so sometimes what they say should be taken with a grain of salt.

I know Bozich doesn't post or release information unless it's confirmed.  I would bet he's frustrated with other 'journalists' who want to be first and not necessarily right.

For the most part, some have a little more room than others.  There are also some within that are willing to talk, now more than before.

Bozich has always rubbed me the wrong way taking potshots at other reporters and sports minds, so this cracked me up:

@insidethehall: Funny that former players chose the day after a loss to Purdue to bring up that "they aren't treated well by IU." Laughable, really.

@dandakich: @insidethehall just be fanboy..don't join big boy conversations and discussions..

I still think Dakich was stirring the pot, but this got me.

In Bozich defense. If DD is going to put his gripes out in a public forum then he should know that he's going to be criticized. There's no need to be condescending towards Bozich.

I no longer live in the state and I travel quite a bit so at times it's hard for me to get info on IUBB so I use iheart to listen to DD and get info and opinions from him and others that call in. I really like DD and I enjoy his show but at times I feel he says things just to be outrageous and get pub.

I don't disagree. I only thought it was funny because Bozich does this same thing to other people all the time. I actually agree with his original tweet. I just think it's funny when media members act like children in public.

LOL, I dont necessarily like DD but that tweet at Bozich was funny. I was a regular at ITH for many years and Alex does a great job with that site but is so far up Crean's rear I couldn't take it anymore. Don't know him personally but over the years on more than one occassion I've seen him act like a 2 year old towards fans for literally no reason. Rubbed me the wrong way too.

[Alford Bailey 13,233]

I'm not in Btown but always liked Dustin Dopirak and wondered if his criticism with the progress of the program is why he is no longer around. Any thoughts?

"I couldn't wake up without going straight to Twitter, and I felt like every game story had to be flawless, but yet I still felt like I could only get so close to the program even though I was here. It was still fun for sure, but there was just a lot of tension and anxiety."

Quote from Dopirak about 2012-13 BB team. He could only get so close even though he was there. Typical description of the Crean ran program.

Yep. Along with 4 hour practices, oversigning/roster imbalance every year, drug/alcohol problems, stagnant halfcourt offense, hit or miss recruiting…makes my head spin thinking about all of it. 

 

 

At least our kids get A's!!  :ninja:

Dopirak's Live Discussion during games sure were fun.

Here is the post game conference so people can hear what he said to Don Fischer.

[JSHoosier 22,240]

"Any questions for coach?", followed by the sound of a woman laughing.  Yep, she saw the game.
