Phinisee criticism on offense is fair, but still is really getting after it and had great plays on defense. I actually really like Woodson trying to let him play through it and gain confidence. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Yeah, sorry. I was more just referring to the offer itself. I guess I also don’t think even Woj would hear, “Well, he had a lot of interest, but couldn’t get out of his current contract.” That would be really toxic for him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Wow. Confirmation of what Chris and others were saying all along. No shame in shooting that kind of a shot and the guy not being interested. I have a great feeling about the direction we went instead. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Glad he got the dog crate out lol. Good sign for his success back at IU! Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I would be wary of not giving Baylor a chance. Those guys can score in bunches and are way more athletic than UCLA. Should at least be a great game. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Ha! “If you want to shoot like that either you get on a plane out of here or Mike Woodson does.” Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Get it...”back” channels. Sorry... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I would say I can’t believe it...but this is IU. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

On a scale of 1-10, how connected is Bozich to the insiders? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Treesh, I know it’s not B-town, but you better have taken off for that airport in Indy, or so help me... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I’m definitely choosing to believe the former because it’s what I want to happen lol. But the two things I keep coming back to: 1. How “quiet” it got after and 2. Did anyone ever answer if it would have to be reported that Boston gave him a raise? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yeah, I’m not saying I agree with that philosophy, but I also don’t think he’s the only one in NBA circles who believes it. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

This is how I see it. As a completely biased IU fan, a “mutual agreement to part ways” makes sense in a season like this for them. Wasn’t it Bird who thinks no coach should last more than just a few years in the NBA? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Oh I’m totally ready to go off the rails again. It’s way more fun than all the pessimism. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I’m as ready to freak out as anyone, but we should probably realize that had Archie been retained, we’d likely be looking at a lot of turnover, no matter what. This one time transfer rule will entice a ton of players. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Totally even trade. No cash needed. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Chris, I have to ask...do you think Dolson has totally moved on from Stevens, or is he gonna make another push? Sure seems like he probably got a firm no. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Yes. You should save us all a lot of time and just do this for every day haha. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I mean, stress definitely doesn’t help back problems, but I guess that’s true of most health issues. It could be that one surgery did irreparable damage to a nerve, but otherwise other surgery pretty much fixed his problem. I’ve seen that a lot too. Have also been thinking if drop foot was one of his issues, that could explain people thinking he “needed help to his seat.” My opinion? His issues have most likely been blown way out of proportion. Not saying that they shouldn’t be vetted, but still... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

For anyone curious, that ankle brace was an AFO, which is worn for drop foot. In other words, the nerves in his back have been so damaged, he requires a brace to keep his foot from dragging. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Personally, I’m exhausted. Lol Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

At the risk of sounding dramatic, does anyone else feel like the wind has totally been taken out of their sails? Like I’d normally be ecstatic to get someone like, say Beard. But now since apparently missing on Stevens, I’m reverting to my old bitter Hoosier fan ways. Feels like no great coach would want to come here. And even if we made a “good” hire, feels like he’d just find some way to underachieve, like Archie. Feels like Stevens was the only one that could fully mobilize and unify all of us again. Just my 2 cents. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Is this the same Goodman that said they wouldn’t fire Archie this year? It is? Oh okay... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

This. Been thinking this all day. Can’t wait for the PU fans and pUKe fans to all be like, “he’s never won anything, failed at Boston, blah blah blah...” Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
