I heard he really likes Painter and how he came to his sectional game and this clinched it fot them. @Barrel Rickrhis is where you have to share more info to dispel my compelling mis, I mean information

HH had a good interview with him this week. You have to fast forward way way ahead to get past some conversations they had while stuck I’m traffic but once you find it, I felt it was worth it.

This certainly adds more credibility to @WayneFleekHoosier's earlier suggestion that these "burner" accounts seemed to be attempting to create energy/positive mojo for Woody and the program. Overall, I am not mad about it IF results follow on the court. In fact, I might even be impressed but I do not see how it directly improves the product on the floor. The product on the floor, especially with the level of talent we have, needs to produce. Nonetheless, what you shared about Twitter Hunter Pro certainly was not done by accident. I have seen a lot of ideas floated around about who may have had access to the program and was able to share this via twitter and one that came to mind reading this was perhaps someone associated with Woody's agent or perhaps even Adidas. Both entities may have more experience creating energy/buzz for people and products and I could see how this could be linked to either. Regardless, it was good find.

I think this is a fair floor. He is in year 4 and has what looks to be a strong roster, of his choosing.

Assuming this is not in reference the guy on the left reading a text, if MM were to go elsewhere I assume based on your prior comments that the duo is still looking good for us.

Are they (Mullins and Sisley) targeting the fall visit for a commitment? If so, why wait? It would seem if they have decided an earlier announcement helps with momentum with others whereas a delay suggests they are still gathering info

Do you think based on the 2024/25 roster he has gotten better at roster construction?

Believe it or not Dakich made a good point several years back and said that Painter needed to get back to recruiting Purdue guys. Kids that were overlooked, chip on their shoulder, tough and willing to work hard type of guys. He has largely done that and sprinkled in some higher end kids but Painter has been able to build a competitive culture there that has allowed him to sustain success. Does not mean he wont swing and miss and have a drop off but I do not immediately count them out just because they lose Edey. As for a watered down conference and 12-8 indicating mediocrity, i think a better measure should be post season success. Winning percentage in the tournament would be part of that but having teams reach the elite 8/final 4 and championship games regularly (which I do not think we have had) is a better indicator.

I used to be pretty good at whack-a-mole. I am sure I would have aced this

I never went to my professor's office hours for my undergrad and needless to say graduated with a meh gpa. That was also largely paid for by my parents but when I went back to school, on my dime, I visited professors regularly. Heck I even found out where one lived and took my kids trick or treating in his neighborhood so I could just happen to run into him lol. Sure call me a stalker lol, i will go with creative. Office hours are such an unutilized opportunity to get help, get to know your profs and vice versa and really help you understand things that were missed while in class.

Year 3 for sure, but you think the next coach will do better that Woody and the team did his 1st and 2nd year? If so, who do you think brings instant success?

For a #1 pick, and just looking at box scores, Boston does not seem to be producing at a very high level. I admit i have not watched many games so fill me in on whether she is likely going to be great.

Then make your case or argue with them about that on twitter. It always seems silly for people to bring some outlandish take to this board with the defense of I saw this on twitter or FB or... Unless it is a prominent person making that claim, it does not impact the discussions we have here. You can pretty much find stupid takes anywhere and usually should be ignored.

Does the student bill of rights guaranteed scholarship also guarantee a roster spot? I don’t think it does.

I hope he has success here. Would be cool to see him do well even if at a low level.
