Also Drew Adams

I’m about to become the biggest Celtics fan you've ever seen. Move over @BGleas

I’m ready to be hurt again. What’s the odds Woody is the bridge to Stevens? And was this the plan all along? Stevens says not yet, give Woody a go and I’ll be ready when he retires. Probably pure delusion but why in the hell did Seth tweet that lol

Not saying I agree, just passing along what was posted in there. I don't follow Jim or listen to his show but I wouldn't think the commenting style lines up between the 2 either. My one guess on who the infamous Tyme is one of the student managers.

Someone in Trilly discord claims Tyme is... Jim Coyle

He's gone. Players transferring and recruits opening up their recruitments is a pretty good tell. I think the delay is on Arkansas end getting the deal approved and then we will see a press conference scheduled.

Johnell Davis in the portal. What are the chances his credits don’t transfer to Michigan? Offer him and Conwell $1 mil each. Who says no?

I’m worried about Conwell also doing this. Hope the bag Woody has planned for him is big enough.

Rumors that he will be a paid member on staff after he graduates. My best guess is he was planning on working for Dusty, Woody/Dolson said not so fast, and then they offered him a position.

Yeah would love a defensive specialist big (Bradshaw) and a stretch 5 (Humrichous or Dawson Garcia). The odds of that happening are slim since someone is going to have to sit the bench but it's fun to think about.

Grab 3/4 (sorry Leland) and Bradshaw please. Then maybe one more big and Blazi as the 13th spot.

He put Indianambb back in his bio so seems like it.

Yeah I added a little more context in my follow up post. Maybe both can be true? Hickman himself didn't say that but someone in his camp did? Or maybe Rabby just trying to protect a Bloomington native whereas Trilly couldn't care less as a 3rd party guy. Regardless, with him visiting this weekend, we'll find out soon enough if Woody can convince him to take the offer. I would think having Trey and Leal in his ear saying how much money they've made could go a long way vs whatever Cincy is offering.

Hickman or someone from his inner circle is what Trilly reported. But Rabby has since said it is not true so we shall see with him visiting this weekend.

Want to feel even worse? This comment about the offense was made by a portal player from.. Bloomington, IN.

I don't have an update but based on him removing IU from his Twitter and Insta bio, I don't see him returning to IU. Whether that means he is hired by Dusty or not, it doesn't seem like he returns. Here's a conspiracy, what if he was the one leaking info about Woody and his failed recruiting efforts and is now facing the axe?

Adam Howard going to UM with Dusty? He changed his twitter pic and bio and retweeted a Dusty to UM tweet.

There’s plenty of threads with non stop negativity so let’s keep this thread positive only (life is short, let’s try not to be miserable). I’ll start. Queen commits and Mgbako returns. Need 3 portal guards and we’re right there. PG - portal (Tony Perkins, Bruce Thornton, or Malik Mack) SG - portal/Galloway Wing - McNeely PF - Mgbako C - Malik Bench: Queen, Cupps, knockdown shooter, Newton, Sparks. If none of Leal, Banks, or Gunn return get 1 freshman guard and a backup wing.

Booker is exactly what we need if all he does is stand around the 3 on offense. I'm sure that's exaggerated and he would also be perfectly fine in lobs too. We need a stretch 5 on O and rim protector on D. Sign him up!

Would love if that rim protector is a stretch 5 on offense. Anyone see any possible portal players that would fit that?

Regardless, I think we achieved something here. We didn't get what we wanted but you have to admit the fan pressure has rejuvenated Woodson and the team a bit. He is showing more emotion on the sideline and the players seem to be playing harder. If it truly led to the ultra rich boosters pledging more money to the NIL? That's a win. Maybe Scott's player only meeting was to make them aware of that, hence Chris' comments about the discussion involved other schools reaching out to them. If he can retain the "good" nucleus of this team and actually go get some high level guards, I think most would have a hard time saying they are not excited next year. Good news? This theory will get put to test very soon.

Only thing I am worried about is if Auburn ups the ante and makes his son coach in waiting like Houston did for Kelvin Sampson. That would be hard to overcome. If that's the case, move on to option B, Scott Drew (purely my opinion on pecking order).

Maybe the selection committee can do us a solid and put Auburn and FAU as a round of 32 matchup. Winner gets the IU job and sweet 16 appearance.

What's everyone think about Woodson chest bumping/charging Galloway and looking like he wanted to k*** him? In case you didn't see it, it happened when Galloway played lazy defense and the Steph Curry wannabe had a wide open layup in the second half. I will say it did seem to work as Galloway spent the rest of the game chasing him hard but that was the most intense I've ever seen Woody.

@ mods can you please lock the thread? I take back my positive thread, time to burn it all down.
