My list T.J. - wife played at Iowa State but does he believe he can win championships there in the NIL world? Oats - probably a long shot but one to take. Hopefully there are more. If Pitino could give us 7 years I would take him but at 72 that is not likely

IUBB vs Gonzaga - Thursday , 11.28.24 @ 2:30 on ESPN2
8bucks replied to OliviaPope40's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Probably time for empty arenas. Better image than booing our team I guess. -
Well, I know ol BP isn’t a young fella but if interested last year what about at the end of the year. I mean, he is only one year older. Make it a results based with bonuses for staying and producing for 6+ years

Any insight on how boosters are taking this loss
-
Key point is that this is who we always seem to be and not a one off loss right

IUBB vs Louisville - Wednesday, 11.27.24 @ noon on ESPN
8bucks replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Agree. This was one of the more important games of the year because it would allow us to play some strong teams if we won. That would balance the schedule. Whether they were out too late or just bad, they got run by a first year coach who scrambled to fill a roster. If there is a silver lining it is that a lot of the big money donors are there. Wearing the colors proudly eager to watch the team their $ brought in light it up. Would love to be in a room with those boosters -

Same. Fire him or announce that he will not be retained so the fans can know. It will get ugly unless we know a change is coming. -
I blame Adam Howard. If he would have separated Leal and Gallo we would not be in this mess.
-
Do it now Scott. Next timeout. Not sure which assistant to have take over for the balance of the year but it won’t matter.
-
This is his prove it year. But winning today was/is almost a must.
-
Have heard the same. His practices, especially if someone outside the program was watching, we’re intense and possibly were the reason his teams tended to fade down the stretch.

Do you mean 4 teams?

IUBB vs UNC Greensboro - Thursday, 11.21.24 @ 6:30 on FS1 TV

I suspect that we all feel a bit like those 6 patients. Glad nothing bad happened, glad it’s is over, did not really enjoy the process, will be a bit put off for a few days, probably have ptsd fear they may have to experience it again. But then we rarmember we are a mighty football school. -
Remember when ‘ol’ Kathy with a C (or something like that) was doggin on our favorite AD (come on, after getting football right and getting $ to keep home from evil SEC land we can all admit Dolson is our fav) and suggesting he was not capable of making a hiring decision on his own. Well, methinks my classmate at IU has a bit more cache than even the mighty Quinn does these days. So, if ‘ol’ Woody doesn’t turn in a mighty fine season this year AND have a believable roster in place for next, mr Dolson gonna be able to do what he wants.

Trying to think ahead a little. Not being a season ticket holder, what would be the best way to secure tickets for game 1 of the playoffs? I know we don’t know if it will be a home or away game yet but just trying to start planning. Also, are the first games Dec 18-21?
-
Same. Living down in SEC country it is cool to where my IU gear and have people stop and ask about the team. It would be nice to have both but If I had to choose one to be a perennial top 10-15 team I would choose the football Hoosiers.

(2025)-PF Bryson Tiller to Kansas
8bucks replied to Uspshoosier's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
Not sure the $ sign is a criticism these days. Also seems we may be offering more than most -
Thank you. A great Mexican place as referred by Mexicans who know is like finding a great steak or Italian place. Recently been trying to find places that make great mole sauce on site. Chipotle is a good place but really more comparable to subway.

Step 2, don’t hire president in velour sweatsuits.

This would be disappointing but hopefully this becomes sort of the new normal. Getting to bowl games, typically good bowl games, and hopefully Cig can continue to add pieces such that we are part of the championship discussion here and there. If we end up with just those results, that is awesome and it will become clear that I was the jinx. Once I changed companies, was not a corporate sponsor getting all the tickets I wanted for bad teams (basketball and football), and even left the state I may have finally broke the jinx.

Beautiful. I am so sorry for you Brass. That was heartbreaking but a beautiful note for I am sure an amazing person.

(2025) QB - Julian Lewis to Colorado (for now)
8bucks replied to Hovadipo's topic in Indiana Football Recruiting Forum
I tend to think a Rourke like transfer could be just as likely. Obviously I don’t see practice so hopefully the young kids are developing there. -
Worst case scenario, we lose to OSU badly, how far do we fall in the rankings? Good news is we play Purdue the following week so we can potentially make up some ground should someone else lose. My biggest fear vs OSU is whether we can get the offensive line healthy. If they are then I feel we have a chance but I did not like how Michigan blew our offense up in the 2nd half.
-
Woodys best year was his second when we beat Purdue twice and fished 2nd in the BT. Not sure NIL helped that much then did it?

Trent Sisley is an Outstanding Hoosier and (2025) SG - to UConn Thread
8bucks replied to Barrel Rick's topic in Indiana Basketball Recruiting Forum
I think sage got sideways with political differences but DD was regularly going after people on twitter while at ESPN and became too much of a liability. Too bad because when he first started doing games he was good.
