OT: Do you have a “second team?”

[Icefan]

UCLA alum here. Love IU and anybody playing Purdue or USC.

 

[The one and only ACE]

You know, another school you follow for whatever reason: not living in Big Ten country, feeling of moral obligation, need to further fill the constricted intellectual horizon with which you live, etc.?

Here’s mine.

PURDUE, men’s basketball and football. My wife is an alum and relies on me to keep her informed. Also, my son is good at math and hot to attend someday.

WABASH, football. I derive a certain strange satisfaction from knowing everyone on the field is literate.

Shoot me.

You just lost me. Good lord. Ask your wife for your balls back. SMH

Currently:

Butler, paid for three degrees there and love Hinkle
Davidson, as I had a Kid that went there
Princeton, family ties
ND, Kid that went there post grad, but they are a struggle to like.
Taylor, many BB camps as a kid.

Taylor is a very nice

Wabash alum here, so add me to the list of Little Giant fans, both football and basketball.

No other D1 teams.

I went to Northern Kentucky so I follow them. Xavier and Cincinnati because my dad and mom are graduates and fans.

[IUNorth]

I cheer for IU and IU only...then just root for excitement, or whoever I've put some money down on, on any given night.

 

[Seyton]

DePaul, Illinois and Loyola.

 

[IUINSB]

IU #1 in all sports.

Grew up Catholic and now live in South Bend.
You can probably guess which teams are #2.

This is what you call a “multiple reversible jacket fan” thread.

Only an IU message board would allow for such diversified fandom of other teams. You’d never see this in any other board. Not UK, Purdue, Duke, UNC….none of them.

… Duke?? Lol. What percent of their basketball fans do you think are loyal enough to cheer for their football teams. They’re as bandwagon as it comes.

Why would you even care ..

Greatness of heart? A capacious mind?

 

[Harry Hondo]

Grew up in South Bend, so…

Actually, was an ND basketball fan early and then when I was 10 my dad introduced me to IU basketball. I was hooked right away. It was the mid 70’s, too, which helped.

Was still a pretty big ND football fan through the 80’s & 90’s, but the past twenty years I don’t follow them as closely.

As a causeless, Rivals message board drifter and lurker, I must at least call out the assertion that most Duke basketball fans across the country aren’t scoundrels who cheer for ‘Bama or Notre Dame in football, lol.
