Not sure if I should share this or not but the feedback IU is getting from the portal so far, from kids who should be a layup for IU is not going well. When a player's camp tells you that you need to change your offense and pay them a lot of money to get them it's not good. -

(2024) - SF Bryson Tucker to INDIANA
thebigweave and 23 others reacted to Demo for a post in a topic
1 thing I just realized we’ve never talked about around here: You won’t see videos of Tucker playing travel ball because he never played travel ball. He did a couple of top 100-type camps and played some international team ball, but otherwise his summers were all skill development work and school. He was so far ahead academically that last spring he was considered an almost certain reclass. At 1 point he was pretty much universally penciled into Mich St’s ‘23 class. Make no mistake, he’s kind of a different kid. -

If a local kid picks Cincy over the current staff and coach then it’s time to reevaluate the direction the program with the current head coach. I still have a hard time believing he could go to Cincy over IU. I’m checked out on anything related to Woody already if this happens put me down as double checking out -

What’s good fellas?! Just wanted to come through and say I can’t wait to get up there and coach in front of the “truest fans” in the country. These Louisville fans did me dirty, the reason I failed. Can’t wait to learn from Coach Woody. Coach Hill told me “you gotta bring the energy.” That’s exactly what I’ll do. Don’t worry, Coach Woody has a few good years in him. My first advice, “don’t change the the offense, the boys gotta get themselves over the hump and knock down the shots we get for them.” See yall in April! Sincerely, Your Head Coach In Waiting Kenny P -

Long time reader, first time poster. Coach Portal should have been shown the door at seasons end and definitely after his lone recruit left. It’s obvious that coach Portal and his staff doesn't want to put in the effort that it takes to be a good recruiter, let alone a great recruiter. The writing was on the wall when MM’s mom contacted coach Portal about her son wanting to play at IU! Now the team is going to go from a $hit show to one of a liquid form next year and a new coach won’t have a chance at getting his hooks into the 25’ class of in state players. It’s sad. I’ve been an IU fan for over 40 years now and I’ve never been so down on any team that I support in any sport, btw I’m a Cubs fan. I feel it’s only going to get worse because who would want to play for a lame duck coach that has split the fan base? I’m not a rocket scientist nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn, but I’d guess there aren’t very many! Btw Chris 007 keep doing what you do! Who cares if someone is butt hurt over something you said! -

21 pointsFwiw, Query asked Crean what he thought about this little controversy: Rumors, questions, and discussions followed Leal’s comment. Are the fans too toxic? Could that be the reason why they missed out recruits or players in the transfer portal? Former Indiana basketball coach Tom Crean joined Query & Company Wednesday afternoon and was asked that question. “I don’t know if I believe it. I think the fans, from my experience, any booing or any negativity that I delt with, wasn’t anything close to some of the stuff I was dealing with back there with the administration. I wanted every one of our players, no matter how great it was or how rough it was, to understand the privilege it was to play there and it’s special because of those people. There is a passion for that place that very few have.” Crean stated. “Indiana’s built on the grass roots of Indiana. Administratively or coaching wise, the moment that you forget it was built on the communities, counties, rural areas, you name it, that’s how Indiana basketball was built. You better never forget how Indiana basketball got built. Those people there, they love it. Some of them hate it, but they weren’t born to be Indiana fans anyways. The ones that love it, they love it. Can they take it over the top? Sure. There is NOTHING like it when that place (Assembly Hall) is rolling and those fans are bringing that intimidation factor to the opponent. To get to those days, you got to go through some of the hard days and the last thing you ever want to do is disrespect the people that make it what it is.” https://1075thefan.com/271083/tom-crean-has-a-message-for-indiana-basketball/ Do you all think Indiana Admin and Coach have forgotten their base?

What difference does it make? We have to pay someone in order to field a team. Might as well be Malik and for all you know, he could be less expensive than having to go into the actual portal for his replacement. -

Listening now two things I took away from it was first when asked about why coming back one of the first things he said was NIL. He also hinted that he knows the fans don't care for the coach, but he thanks them for sticking by the team. I can support that. I'm going to have an Malik Reneau burger tomorrow night at Big Woods -

Opened Btown Banners this afternoon to see what's up -- and notice a vague reference in the IU notes thread about Mgbako. Had no clue what it meant, so I investigated. Turns out ... HE'S COMING BACK No portal. No testing the NBA waters. Looks as if he's all in for 2024-25. Thought maybe we should make the news "official" here ... -

Suggesting Leal playing at least 20 min a game is the secret formula for IU winning games is exactly what I would expect to see on page 943 of a fire Mike Woodson thread. Woodson has officially broken people's brains. -

Clearly not easy being a fan of a program that seems to be declining rapidly and having basically 0 positive news since the end of the season. My advice to posters including myself is to take a step back from the noise for a second. Everyone wants the same thing in the long run. Getting haymaker after haymaker of bad news, bad vibes is going to take its toll. Emotions are high with people posting about something they are passionate and dedicated about something they love when it’s going in the wrong direction. What this board needs is a meet up where everyone sits down and have a few. That fixes a lot of issues. Can’t do that through posting. IU basketball is probably the lowest it’s been at any point since Creans first year but that doesn’t mean we as a forum has to follow them down that road. This board just needs a win or something positive to happen. To keep on topic Woody needs to go. -
