[Sticky] A Little Transparency

Sammy Jacobs · 2025-07-02T15:45:38Z

Hello Members, I want to be as transparent as possible on what the whole vision and goal for Hoosier Huddle is. As most of you know we had a quick turnaround after the learning about the Merger. The original Hoosier Huddle website was housed on square space and getting a forum on there just was not going to work, so I went with word press. Is it perfect? Not at all. Was the goal to be perfect? No. We had about seven weeks to scramble and build some place for people to go while trying to survive as an independent and not miss a beat. After seeing the questions and concerns (with a little advice from a poster) I wanted to be upfront with everyone. The ultimate goal is to redo the website to be more user friendly and modern looking. However, that takes time. We will be on Wordpress through the basketball season (which is hopefully April) and then hopefully have a new layout by the time the 2026 football season starts (hopefully sooner). However, I have seen your concerns and have purchased some upgrades (back to top button, gifs, pms etc.) that I need to figure out how to install. So this is temporary, but I do love that you are all here. Hopefully I can make the experience more enjoyable for you. After all we work for you! Thanks, Sammy

@bulk-vh My wife was cracking up at the off-topic forum last night and may be addicted to it. She works in mental health, so it's a good laugh for her.

Mrs. Jacobs - this is for you...

@unclemark I am always looking to improve. If we can realistically improve, we will.

I know how hard it is to be responsible for a website. I had one back in the mid 90s that had quite a bit of traffic (for the time) and included a primitive chat room. Even back then I had to deal with idiots who didn't want to play nice or tried to f with things. It's A LOT of work.

You're knocking it out of the park with the all of the little changes and additions you have made in the span of only one week. Hell, this site is so good already that I even read a couple of paragraphs in the article about IU's football coach (I'm that lone Purdue guy hanging out here). Thank you for all of your efforts!

I would add a POTFH, but that wouldn't be playing nice. 😎
