General Coach Candidate News
Magnanimous replied to JaybobHoosier's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Reviving my tradition in these threads to throw Ben McCollum’s name back in the candidate hat :). He’s gone 82-12 since Woody’s first season and won another D2 national championship. -

IUBB @ Illinois - Saturday, 01.27.24 @ 3:00 ET on Fox TV
Magnanimous replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
You cannot be a good basketball team in today’s game without reliable perimeter shooters. You can write off every season in November if your roster can’t shoot. -
How ‘effing hard is it for Indiana to be good at basketball? This program has fielded one legitimately good team in the last 20 years (2012-13). Is a top 15-20 team, at minimum, on a near annual basis so difficult for a program with all of the resources anyone could possibly need? We are literally paying players at this point to come here and we still suck.

2023-24 Prediction League - Game 16 at Rutger Tue 1/9/24 7pm Peacock
Magnanimous replied to LIHoosier's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
There’s supposed to be a massive amount of flooding in and around central New Jersey today. The governor declared a state of emergency beginning at 5 pm. Any word on if the game may be canceled/postponed? -
IUBB vs #2 Kansas - Saturday, 12.16.23 @ 12:30 on CBS

I thought so too! Did they move the game time up? -
Despite the team showing flashes of competency after Bell was let go, I think this was the right move. There had been too many boneheaded decisions the last few years and the momentum around the program completely bottomed out. I’ll say this though, Tom Allen in my opinion was the best IUFB coach in 40 years. Kevin Wilson made us look like an actual football team, but Allen took that foundation and started winning. In 2009 our secondary was our baseball team, and for a bit, Allen made us competent defensively for the first time in forever. Give Allen’s credit to the DeBoer and Womack all you want, he was the one hiring and winning with them. He also loved the program in a way we hadn’t seen since Hep was here. My collegiate tenure at IU was all four years of Bill Lynch and (near) concluded with losing to Wisconsin 83-20. Coach Allen beat Wisconsin twice. Indiana has beaten Michigan twice since 1968. Coach Allen owns one of those victories. Nebraska may not be what they used to, but Coach Allen went into Lincoln in front of 90,000 fans and won. And Covid excuses be damned, there was one week in my life where I checked the AP poll and saw IU in the top 10. If there was an expanded playoff that year we would have made it. I get that Coach Allen wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea and the LEO schtick got old. With the transfer portal now available his Tampa recruiting pipeline also didn’t carry the weight it used to. I agree it’s time for a change and this program is at a crossroads. But Tom Allen gave us a few years of very competitive and exciting football, and that should not be lost in all of the “thank the Lord he’s gone” posts that are about to fill this thread for the next 24 hours.

Will “there’s no way IU should lose this game” end in “there was no way IU should have lost that game”?

Remember folks, not only does it take four years to learn the packline defense, but it also takes four years to unlearn it. -
IU football is going to produce its first Heisman winner this year! Penix will be enshrined on the Notable Alumni section of Indiana University’s Wikipedia page.

I ended my senior year @IU with us losing 83-20 to Wisconsin. Even when they’re down it’s great to see us beat them. -

How hard is it to throw some crossing routes over the middle of the field?
