The women’s championship game had more viewers than the men’s game for the first time in history. Thanks Purdue.

This is just so gross. 1 of the best young coaches in the country takes a job, flips it 180 in year 1, isn’t going anywhere, and his 3 leading scorers all split. I don’t know what program building at the mid-major level is supposed to look like anymore. I’m not begrudging the players, but, Jesus, there’s got to be a better way. 

Whatever happened with all those rumors about IU hiring a GM and changing up the staff? I guess that was just total nonsense?
And why haven't we hired Kenny Payne yet? :)

Thats the plan brother. That and following High School ball. My son asked me what we were going to do since we weren’t going to anymore IU games. We sat and made a list of Indiana High School gyms we want to visit and watch games in. We checked off New Castle and will go to state this coming weekend. 

Is anyone worried that were only targeting like 12 guys again this year and we need to land half of them to fill the 6 spots? If we fill all 6 which I'm told is unlikely. 
Also, I wonder if it is an IU thing that we have all the players we're interested in making a visit before having them commit. Other programs are getting commitments right now without a kid ever visiting. But at IU we always set up a visit first. I don't need Conwell or Hickman to visit to know that I want them. 
Just my Wednesday morning ponders

Whether you agree with this or not, this is what the IU administrations have done to this program. This is national perception and it’s infuriating.

I heard similar stuff last year after the portal. I'll withhold judgement until I see how they play together and under Woody

Honestly, they are reading this.  I think it is someone that has some connection to the staff and as much as he wants to spike the ball, I want to rub it back in.  These dudes are not only assholes, they are dumb @$$ assholes.  Leal doubling down on that same tone tells you where this is coming from.
I want Indiana to win so if they pull a rabbit out of a hat, great.  Only took these dumbasses 3 years to figure out what people were saying in year one on message boards.  "You don't just need shooting...."  No **** dumb ****s.  "Woodson can change, you'll see..."  And he is supposedly going to change by getting dynamic guards (the aforementioned shooters, people weren't expecting a team of Roths) and everyone is just supposed to believe how brilliant they are?
Tyme is either connected to the staff or is an arrogant charlatan who is spouting the same stuff as people connected to the staff.  If this is the staffs opinion and things fall apart on them next year, good, **** these guys. 

Can’t think of a worse fit in Lexington than Hurley. Dude would get in fist fights with UK fans before it was over.

Alright well I’m never gonna win this argument, so I think it’s tyme that I check out.

I used to have that same belief. But this is national sentiment amongst the majority of cbb and I’d assume that’s the case with coaches, since we cannot seem to attract top tier coaching talent.

Depends… what’s their shooting percentage from 3? 

It’s a great day watching Purdue lose in the national championship! 

I kept getting told that I needed to root for the B1G to win a championship. Just couldn’t do it. Sadly, this is the highlight of our season. Seeing Purdue get SO CLOSE to a banner and getting their hearts ripped out… beautiful. 

Newton's high school teammate is one bad MoFo!

They haven't shown Mackey for awhile......

Love love love.
Myles Rice + Conwell + Payne or Williams + Humrichous would be an A grade roster revamp.
Can we add Hickman too? That would be an A++

We have reached out to Aaron Bradshaw and to Oumar Ballo - Arizona (1) per Rabjohns

I envy you.

Everyone is entitled to their wrong opinions. 

Yes. And I love that he stood up for us and called out the administration publicly. We need more people to do the same. These people operate in the shadows (zero anccountability) and sh!t on the people who are responsible for any relevance the program still has.
