I condemn this post. You always sympathize with the “others”. Why didn’t Haas receive punishment? I’ll tell you. Purdue had its best chance ever to go all the way. They knew this was the best shot. I find it ironic and fitting that Karma got him. I get why Purdue and painter can’t comment but to just act like nothing happened is very Izzo.
I was just being truthful. Purdue can’t talk about it anymore than IU couldn’t talk about it when Devin Davis was injured or certain student-athletes complained of mistreatment by coaches and the medical staff. You just can’t go there, no matter how much people want to throw out the rules so they can trash their rival.
Punishment is handled confidentially all the time. Why not in this case? BS on the truthful comment. You are largely truthless. Trashing rivals is commonplace, why so defensive in this case and others - i think we know why.
Nope, I was and am completely truthful. Your argument is that trashing your rival resets the rules, and that’s simply dishonest. As our play over the last two decades has gone down, the knowledge of our fan base has gone with it. Try to be even a little more intelligent.
I personally wasn’t arguing about coaches or administrators not/can’t comment. I’m arguing that he should not have been playing. The accusations alone get players suspended until further notice. This was a “turn your head nothing happened” moment. We will just have to wait for the outcome of his charges.
Your comment is not truthful, but you'll never concede to that. Your last comment is typical. Whatever makes you feel better.
I can only think of one other ”occurrence” like this involving an athlete (Jabrill Peppers), and he wasn’t suspended, either. On what basis should Haas have been suspended, since this wasn’t a criminal matter? I have no idea what Haas’ coach knew or what he said in his defense, so I’m not at all qualified to say whether he should be punished, though.
It was completely truthful, and you’ve done nothing to show otherwise. Not one thing. Put up or slither away.
It most certainly is a criminal matter. If you knowingly infect people. He’s being accused of it and until it’s sorted should’ve been benched. Why are you downplaying this? Would you downplay rape, drug use, alcohol, theft? Is it likely he gets time or criminal charges? No but it shouldn’t be dismissed as no big deal. What would you do if he knowingly infected you? I bet throw rocks at that glass house.
Lol. Of course he’s innocent. I would just dismiss it and on top of that give him commendations. He’s a great guy and doesn’t deserve criticism. Now go away. Don’t you have corn to shuck for the Purdue ladies?
Nor have you. I think most would agree that you should go away, you pompous jerk.
Well you suggested had that news came out during the season that he should be benched as soon as he was accused. That’s a dangerous path to take.
Haas was arrested and prosecuted? Would you post that link as I was unaware it had become a criminal matter, as you’ve stated it is. Thanks.
Show me where I wasn’t truthful or go away. You’re simply making baseless allegations, which makes my point about your ignorance. Try to be a little smarter.
Don't need to show you, as it's self explanatory. You can figure it out, I know you can.
You’re babbling like a fool. I’ve been completely truthful, which is why you can’t come up with anything. You’re a great example of the dumbing down of our fan base. Congrats.
Shorter version . . . You got nothing. Just an example of the dumbing down of our fan base. Congrats.
You've never had anything. I've experienced the pinnacle of IU hoops in the seventies and early eighties while graduating in 81'. You? Please enlighten us.
Have experienced all of that. You said I wasn’t being truthful and then, despite repeated requests, have never offered proof. Either give us something of substance or run along, sport.
Still waiting on your version of what happened in TAH with regard to Haas' sister. I am the only person on this thread that was actually present, the two here that say they were are lying as usual.
So you know who was there and who wasn't? Impressive you know every person and was able to hear every small comment. Not gonna lie.
Yup. I try not to attack or judge people based on mistakes. Everyone makes them. That usually isn't a representation of who they are though. That not ok?
Funny how some of the posters above miss the fact Haas himself figured criminal negligence. He may not be prosecuted because of a technicality in Indiana law but other states do prosecute. He’s a real POS.
Yes. Assault, what haas did, all of that is horrible. I agree. But it happens everywhere. So I'm not going to criticize a school, coach, or program for what a player did. Equally, I'm not going to constantly attack a person for a mistake made. He made a mistake, apologized. I'm not going to hover it over his head forever, because he also has some redeeming qualities. Do you hate iu players that have made poor mistakes as well?
And yet you were quick to run with a false narrative about a fan base's actions toward a player's sister. Attacking them for something that was made up.
I took it back and it was wrong to do. That's why I said I should have never brought it up, then proceeded to explain why and my position on that stuff. And also mentioned I wouldn't be participating in the degradation of people, but instead talk sports only. But that still doesn't take away from it and the fact that it was even a topic of discussion.
That is fine, there are still a lot of PU fans that run with that false story. There are things to criticize IU fans for, but that made up story is not one of them.
Peyton lost his cool and F'd up. He was punished by the state and behind closed doors by the team. Both were wrong, but one was premeditated.
It’s funny how PUkes using a completely different crime to “justify” an action. What a bunch of Hypocrites. What this douche did was multiple times over and over. You make mistakes. Once is a slap but to do it knowingly over and over is just awful and shameful.
And yet again, you still offer nothing. Glad to know you’re every bit as stupid as I knew you were. And you didn’t experience a thing or you‘d know much more than you do.
Nothing to figure out. I’ve been completely truthful and you have nothing but ignorance, sport. It’s obvious your fandom isn’t close to what you claim, but you know that.
So, you were either lying or simply ignorant regarding the issue of criminality, right? I’m no Haas fan, but you shouldn’t discuss stuff that’s obviously outside of your understanding.
Not only a pompous jerk, but also a narcissist. Self explanatory on the truthless comment - the fact you can't figure it out is mindboggling. What year did you graduate from IU again, junior?
