    Fire Coach Woodson

    I think the few remaining people Woody had on his side he lost last night. Anyone can see what IU means to Trey, and how hard he works during the game, then you're going to call a timeout to rip him a new one for getting beat once. Then blame him for the loss because he had 6 turnovers. To also say we would be much better off if we had Xavier. We have all watched him play and we wouldn't be that much better. No one will want to get on a sinking ship

    Saw on the other site that Trilly said Dolson met with some notable former players today and their message to him was that they want Woodson gone.

    I can 100% say that the job was never offered to Pitino or Oats. I wish we would have spoken to Oats. From what I’m hearing a couple of very big donors are at least open about talking about replacing Woodson this season. Dolson has a very good pulse on who all would be interested. We’ll see.

    From what I have heard we have a really good plan going forward. We just need to let Dolson work.

    Damn ya'll the Trilly drop is 2 hours old now I figured I show up to tons of comments.. He said he got a text from another guy today who he trusts. He said that this guy must have talked to someone in Pearl's corner and he said that Pearl to IU is very close.

    Also--- and you guys brought up the subject of kids--- I watched the game, in the hospital, while I held my not-yet-two-day-old-daugther. She was born Monday morning. Emery Anne And, dont worry--- she won't be saving the ball under our own basket in the 2044 Women's March Madness. On a serious note--- I have a new found respect for my wife. My god. Tough af.

    Some people on this board just want to be miserable. He's the 89th ranked player by 247 sports. #90: Committed to Houston #91: Committed to UNC #92: Committed to Villanova #93: Committed to Virginia All 4 of those programs have been much better than Indiana for the last 10+ years. Let's stop acting like Indiana is scraping the bottom of the barrel going after 4 star guys.

    hey y’all, Ricky checkin’ in.. for those of you who don’t know me; do your damn research.. i am the most trustworthy insider in the history of IUMBB. for years, i have predicted some of our most glorious commitments.. Romeo Langford? Ricky called it.. Trayce Jackson-Davis? yep; Rick knew.. now, a smaller number of you may know that i happen to be the team masseuse for this program. i rub the agony of the day’s practice out of each and every one of these young men, and in return they supply me with information.. today, i’m here to speak on Boogie Fland.. as most of you know, Boogie is down to three schools, or so the media believes.. Indiana, Kentucky, and Alabama. Kentucky, one of the sh*ttiest programs in all of Division 1 hoops, is said to have the closest shot alongside the Hoosiers. from what Woody told me this morning at brunch, Boogie’s not interested in making love to any relatives, so Nate Oats and the Tide couldn’t offer him much. on Friday, Boogie Fland will commit to Indiana University, and i will ingest an entire pecan pie in celebratory fashion before my wife gives me some absolute treatment.

    (2024) - Liam McNeeley TO NOT INDIANA

    Ok, this just happened: sitting in Denver waiting for a connection and there’s a guy waiting near me wearing a KU hat. Decide to see if he’s a real fan, so I say, “Hey, congrats on getting Passmore.” Dude smiled, knew what I was talking about, and said, “Hell of an athlete.” I said, “Yeah, he is. You’re not getting McNeeley, though.” He responded, “We never were.” Now that’s how you start a vacation.

    Have seen a total of 3 HS games of Mgbako and parts of 2 EYBL games last summer, so I wouldn’t pretend to have his full game down, but fwiw: Looks to be all of 6’8”. Great frame. Will probably play at something like 225. Hard to tell from streams, but looks to certainly have plus length.. Good athlete, not great. Pretty good lift, but needs to gather. Ok 1st step, but he’s not beating good defenders with explosion. Runs well, and runs hard. Pretty average laterally. So, he’s got solid traits, but that’s not the deal here. Offensively, his best element, no question, is that he’s got a great stroke with deep range. Really simple. Good elevation with a high release and nice wrist snap. Can get it off against a good contest. Can catch and shoot, off the bounce left or right, and has a step back that I watched him splash from about 24’. Likes to play in the mid-post. Faces up, has a nice jab step series, and is looking to put it down for a single bounce either way and shoot a J. Has a pump fake and uses it to drive some, but he needs to get his shoulder in front to beat a guy. Looks to have some feel on the block, but doesn’t seem super well-schooled. Plays through contact, no problem. Bottom line: he can score at every level. He’s not a shot hunter, he takes good looks, but he doesn’t facilitate much and his game appears to be very much about his offense. Assuming he’s playing primarily on the wing, he will be an exceptional rebounder for that role. He’s physical and really goes after it. His defense will hold up but he’s not like Kel’el Ware where you can just autoswitch him and he can handle anyone. But he defends hard and physically and it looked fine. 1 other thing and he shares this with Fino: he carries himself like a 25 yo man. On a team with probably 4 other high major kids, including Simeon Wilcher who will probably start at UNC, there was no question he was the Guy. Long way of saying, he’s a rock solid player and a great fit. He can pick and roll, he can pick and pop, he creates space for X and whomever because you can’t leave him. He just looks to me like a kid who can get you 15 a night from pretty much day 1. Probably doesn’t have the highest ceiling in the class, but he might have the highest floor and I’m not really sure how he would fail. He’s a hell of a get.

    Happened to me yesterday. Had an insanely busy day, pulled this up to about 9-10 unread pages. Cracked a beer and settled in to find everyone here went to high school together and people ride bikes.

    At this point most players are gone after the season, Not sure we can get guys out of the portal. No one in the class of 25 is going to come to IU with Woodson in limbo for next season. I'm guessing donations will be down, NIL money will be down. There is nothing Woodson can do to save the ship from going down at this point. I can't imagine a change not happening. I haven't heard that yet but I think we're heading that way

    Queen has not said jack. Any “attention whoring” has been by speculators, not by the recruit.

    Here’s a hot piece of information on the Mgbako commitment: Kenya Hunter on the Hoosier Hysterics today on the initiation of the recruitment: IU found out he was interested in IU when Woody, unsolicited, received a text from Mackenzie Mgbako’s mom requesting that IU and Woody get involved.

    The risk of keeping Mike Woodson past this season is far greater than the risk of moving on... IMHO

    I can say that his family had a good time on their visit Friday night at Uptown Cafe. My wife and & I were celebrating our anniversary with her family and a few others when we say Coach Ya walk in. He was nice enough to stop and say hi. A few minutes later Jordy came through, then Adam Howard, then Walsh, then Armon Hill, and Woody. Woody was so nice to stop and speak to us for a good 5 minutes. My father in law & him go way back so they were shooting the sh*t. Woody told my son he wants to play golf with him at Pfau this summer but needs a few strokes. Malik came in next and then Kenya brought the whole Mustaf family in. Looked like everyone was having a great time. Memories for my family that will last forever.

    #1 transfer portal player Kel'el Ware is in Bloomington and will begin his official visit today at noon and it will continue through tomorrow. He will be visiting with Ledlum. Coach Ya leading the charge on this one and has done a "tremendous job" and "Indiana has a legit shot here" per insiders.

    No reason to get worked up about Love. At first, we weren't even going to recruit him, everyone was ok, then we decide to talk to him and everyone thinks he was ours but after talking to him, it was decided it wasn't a good fit by either him or us. We move on. Some of the best players to be in the portal very possibly haven't even announced their intentions to enter it yet. Some good news, X will announce he's back today on the HH podcast.
