I figured there was another procedure on it.

It was misdiagnosed originally, he had a microfracture IIRC. He's had a few procedures on it. The procedure this year was reported as a knee scope but that wouldn't have kept him out all year.

Those are so comfortable. Start a new cbb trend.

On the bolded, you hear people say that but it's not always true. Oladipo's biggest jump was between sophomore and junior year.

I think it was always going to be that way once they were stupid enough to bring him back. If he so much as made the tournament, even just barely, they'd look for an excuse to bearing him back. IU has shown they're too concerned with optics and they would not want the black eye of firing a program legend.

I didn't expect Woodson to do well because he's a lousy coach and no one wanted him after the Knicks fired him. I also didn't expect him to have the mindset that he doesn't have to do certain parts of the job; I figured he'd atleast give it everything he had because of his connection to the program.

Patrick went to Butler, not Connor.

16th out of 18, looks like a raise is in order.

I didn't see anything about a commitment when I checked, but she could help. She averaged 19 points and 11 boards as a junior.

Mike Wooson isn't the worst coach in the conference (yet), Mike Woodson did his job.- Mike Woodson, probably

He thinks one of them is a 7 footer named Omar Baller, at least he's close.

If Stevens would take the job you launch Woodson from the nearest cannon.

I do wish they would've just given that support to a good coach instead of hoping they can buy a team that not even Woodson can screw up.

Same. The Globetrotters couldn't carry Woodson to a Final Four; if IU actually had expectations and accepted no excuses he would've been fired. He should've been fired before he got back to the locker room after getting ejected against Nebraska. I remember posters thinking last year was a good portal.

Between Galloway and Tucker I don't see both coming off the bench.

They won't. If he shows he can't meet expectations he'll be gone, they won't give a crap about optics.

The McDuck money vault may not be enough.

He was given a 6 year contract, another 3 would finish his contract. Don't put that out there, someone at IU might see it and think it's a good idea; and yes, the decision makers have shown they are stupid enough to think that's a good idea.

You didn't actually expect him to, did you? At least Ballo is a good big, just bad for spacing.

Kentucky fans wanted a new coach and will get one because Arkansas poached Cal. IU needs a new coach and is stuck because they refuse to fire a 2nd team AA from over 40 years ago and no one else would want him.

Mike Woodson has multiple accounts.

As what? The janitor?

On a championship caliber roster Anthony Leal is not in the rotation. He got minutes this year because of a complete lack of guard depth. Gunn was a negative, Leal being the less bad option doesn't mean he was a good option. There are end of the bench players on rosters all across the country that won in high school.

Maybe the most upside but more risk too. Intriguing option.

I'd like either Bradshaw or Williams at the 5. Bradshaw is a long athletic 7 footer with upside, but Williams has been more productive. Ballo is good but would be awful for spacing.
