He's either paying homage to the best backcourt we've had in 20+ years, saying he looks up to them.....or he's got some massive stones thinking he's on that level.

There were such chants directed at players and teams throughout the season this year. If Harper's tweet is to be believed, Assembly Hall is known pretty widely in the Big Ten as a nasty place to play. This is in contrast to the crowds at Mackey Arena, which is consistently characterized as among the toughest places in the conference to perform. The crowds there rarely lapse into profanity, but rather roar from start to finish, creating one of the loudest and most disorienting environments in the country." In contrast to Mackey Arena? the place that regularly chants "IU sucks" even when we are not playing them. Yup, they are the epitome of class LMAO. I remember Haarms getting the profane chant but I also recall him acting like a "Purdue" player (aka somewhat understanding why he got the ire of the fans). While I wouldn't have joined in the profane chant, he wasn't an innocent bystander in it. And he isn't the first PU player to come and act like an idiot though.

I had no idea he and others held us in such regard. I have ZERO problems with being categorized as a nasty place to play.

Nobody gives a crap about respect from him, lol. Is he serious? It's like he doesn't understand playing on the road. He is not on our radar and nobody gives two craps about him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And unfortunately his younger brother probably does care about Ron Maybe so but he's the brother and not the same player. Maybe the brother has no problem with a friendly rivalry. Beyond that, players largely make rational decisions based on certain factors like player development, style of play, etc. His brother hitting a lucky shot and then crowing about it is hardly the basis for a decision. There are tons of players out there who have complimented the IU fans over the years because those players get that they are supporting their team at a remarkable level. As Dakich quoted Kelvin Sampson, IU will get 17K fans for Chicago State on a football Sunday in November.

I loved the Mackey flex, but I think what Harper did was crude/vulgar. To be fair, I've seen NBA players do it too, so a kid in college really isn't to blame when the supposed role models he watches on TV act like grade school kids. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwtaylor1055 Posted May 10, 2022 Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 Maybe Dylan will enroll at IU and stay for what feels like a decade before deciding to be done with college basketball. It felt like his brother had been playing college ball for close to a decade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
