southsidehoosier Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 In Wisconsin it is wrong. The state athletic association, has sent out lists of banned cheers that may "hurt" the opposing team's feelings. :) Wisconsin will also do away with the tournament system and handout participation trophies at the end of the season.

IUaic Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Albers is just an attention w.h.o.r.e. That is all this is about. He tweets out just ahead of when recruits announce for IU - why? Because he is an attention w.h.o.r.e. Probably too much time on the Jayboob as a child. Naturalhoosier, mdn82, JaybobHoosier and 1 other 4 Quote

You probably are not that far off. The good thing is that most people are really coming down hard on the WIAA for being silly. southsidehoosier 1 Quote
Uwe Robb Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I followed Albers on twitter because it told me he was a suggested contact. That lasted all of about 3 days. Couldn't tell you why I stopped following him, but it didn't take long to figure out he was not worth the read. HoosierAloha 1 Quote

Double Down Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I take sadistic pleasure in hating on Albers. I know it is more a reflection on me than the target of my ire, but with that being said, let's bring on the HATE. :) It isn't so much that he's a dope. There are plenty of those out there. It is that he's a pompous dope who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room. Unfortunately for him, his arrogance is expressed in analysis that is about as coherent and insightful as Grandpa Simpson. I subscribed last year just to get Hutch's articles and was gobsmacked by the quantity of asininity that came from his finger tips. It got even more awkward when Terry introduced post-game wrap-up videos. I actually felt sorry for the guy. I can't remember her name, but there was a young female writer on there and she was mopping the floor with Albers in the insight dept. He gets blasted not just on Twitter, but on the Scout Boards as well. The ban hammer used to come down quickly there, but Albers's propensity to say stupid things is so frequent, they can't click fast enough. Now, it is slim pickins around there and they would kick the 12 remaining subscribers off that site. I think he's convinced himself that these "out of staters" are the ones that giving him hell. If he even had an ounce of self-reflection, he'd take the info people are giving him and just get better as a writer and columnist. Instead, he's going full-Bayless. HoosierTrav 1 Quote

Chips&Dipo Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Dakich talked about it briefly with Doyle on the show today. What I heard (tail end of it), basically he said that the kid is in the B1G. You got to know that was going to happen no matter where you are. rebelhoosier848891 and Tom White 2 Quote
BlueDevil Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 I just think this would be a non issue if Mcintosh didn't have a terrible game. Kid was butt hurt. rebelhoosier848891, Class of '66 Old Fart, HoosierTrav and 4 others 7 Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted January 25, 2016 Posted January 25, 2016 When I think of McIntosh and Albers I think only one thing:https://youtube.com/watch?v=0eXIOK2vOhM Quote
IUaic Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Woah, ouch, where did that come from? Lol One of the sites whenever you typed in Jaybob would auto correct it to Jayboob. That is where it came from and no disrespect intended. JaybobHoosier, Naturalhoosier, mdn82 and 1 other 4 Quote

seanmm1971 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 McIntosh had a bad game because Rojo was guarding him most of the game. BEAST. Napleshoosier and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I was watching Rojo very carefully after hearing about the groin injury. It adds up. His burst isn't there, he keeps his legs under his body. Still super valuable to our success, but watch him tonight considering the groin injury postulate. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Lmao still makes me smile. You're welcome! ;) ALASKA HOOSIER and JaybobHoosier 2 Quote
pappy1865 Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Maybe some of the fans were also sycamore fans and were booing him because he decommitted from an Indiana school to play for a Illinois school. Wouldn't surprise me. I wasn't there, so it wasn't me, but, man, kids nowadays need to get thicker skin. Quote
Uwe Robb Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Will be interesting to see how warmly he is welcomed next year. Quote

Walking Boot of Doom Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 I was watching Rojo very carefully after hearing about the groin injury. It adds up. His burst isn't there, he keeps his legs under his body. Still super valuable to our success, but watch him tonight considering the groin injury postulate. Man, almost want him to just sit out and fully recover. He's a four year guy, and it would be so incredibly costly over the next few years to lose him to an injury like this. Quote
