    Ain’t nobody remembering some meaningless 5 game winning streak. not after last night looking all too familiar.
    but yes, let’s run it back with a 66 year old coach who thinks it’s 1994.

    Meh, they look the same to me.  Neither of their teams could:
    Shoot the 3
    Defend the 3
    Shoot FT's
    Display basic basketball fundamentals
    Properly communicate
    In summary, they both suck!

    Waking up without hope even in the transfer portal era.

    Woody could land 3 NBA talents, bring back our best 3 and I’ll still doubt him.

    We will look like the dumbest program ever after bringing him back, knowing he's just getting fired anyways.

    Because I will chill when I want to chill, no one tells me to chill unless I'm eating at Chilli's. 
    But in seriousness, I didn't care for his tone. But over the days I'm slowly becoming OK with it

    If you can’t root for Anthony freaking Leal, who is as dyed-in-the-wool, true blue Hoosier as it gets, that’s not a him problem, that’s a you problem. For God’s sake.

    Leal's speech doesn't upset me very much (I do think the tone could have been better) but he was taking queues from his coach and I believe a lot of the "true fan" narrative is also related to treatment of Xavier, so also sticking up for his teammate. I like having a guy like that in the locker room even if it means adopting an "us against the world" mindset that a lot of fans may find off-putting. Woodson's speech is another topic but I've cooled off a lot about Leal.

    I'm kind of amused that there's disagreement over whether a team with only 4 scholarship guards, 1 of whom is redshirting, is better when the most experienced and explosive one on the roster is healthy.

    I will say that I fully expect Shrewsberry to be very strong candidate next year if Woodson indeed makes it another year. I think ND will make a massive jump in year 2.

    If IU is dumb enough to be convinced that abandoning high school recruiting so a 67 year old can swoop in late and get some portal additions then they will get exactly what they deserve and I will sit back and watch it burn.

    I don’t think an extension is contemplated in any way. Look, I’m sure some people have flipped ahead to next season and are wondering what happens if we’re in a similar spot this time next year. If we are, Woody will leave, one way or the other, in my opinion.

    Yeah, I rather enjoyed some of the discourse.  I didn't agree with much of it.  But I did agree with some of it.   I'm sure we will get a told you so next season if Woody and staff build a monster and flips this MFer.  
    And if he stays, I certainly hope he does.
    I personally think Woody is worried about the wrong stuff but maybe his competitiveness will win out and he will build a roster good enough.  
    I never give up hope no matter how dim the forecast is.

    I appreciate the DM's from people. I'm going to slow down my posting for a little bit. It was just becoming too much and now that we have nice weather I'm going to try to be outside a little more. He was just rubbing me the wrong way and bringing out a bad side in me. 
    I have my own wife calling me a fair-weather fan also. She thinks he's an awful coach but wants him to get a 4th year since he's a nice old man. I've pulled all of my hair out already.  Go Hoosiers

    So true. I’ll be honest, had they made those speeches after winning the BTT, I would have nodded along and taken the medicine. They were acting like some massive proverbial monkey got removed by 4 wins against floundering teams. Two in which we squandered big leads and one we had to come back from down big. Win the BTT and talk all you want. Maybe Michigan does us a solid and beats PSU? Lol a guy can hope!

    I was aware of his time at Kentucky when I wrote it, and it was mostly a joke based on his outlandish press conference. I don’t really care who Woody hires at this point. I say mostly because it is more about optics right now and the idea of stacking failed head coaches on staff to me. Maybe he’s the best recruiter ever, I don’t know, maybe he’d completely turn us around with HS recruits, I don’t know, I do know Kentucky lost exactly zero beats on the recruiting trail after he left and he’s won 12 games in two years. Maybe he could do what a 2X FF participant, 5x B1G champion, 4x BTT champion couldn’t and get Woody to use him.

    Wrong people evaluating. I never heard Cupps as good as Yogi.  That’s your most ridiculous take yet.  No one said that. Cupps did get love though which I tried to settle down.  I watched 5-10 of his games. He wasn’t at the level we needed to compete at the level we want to compete. It was obvious. 
     
    me and several others said IF we are counting on him more than 5 minute spells we are in trouble.  

    Woody didn’t build a strong enough team and made a million coaching errors along the way and that is why we are out of the tournament .  
     
    Had he had 1 more impact guard and played 7-8 and got rid of the stupid hockey subs earlier, we might be something .

    Discuss raise and contract extension for Mike Woodson. Discuss "Operation Btown Banners" to determine the effectiveness of our efforts to infiltrate the Fire Coach Woodson thread. Determine price to purchase Btown Banners to stop dissent if necessary. Discuss monitoring social media and providing IU fans a social credit score so "True IU" fans may be rewarded, and enemies of our current regime may be punished. Continue basketball propaganda campaign that everything is great, and everything is going as planned.

    Things are going well here I see. Man, this sucks. We all have a common desire and that is for IUBB to be great again. Yet, here we are fighting amongst ourselves. This is what happens when a coach says "you're either with me or against me". No matter how you spin it, he f'd up saying that crap.

    Purdue is 28-3 and won the B1G by three games and will probably walk away with the BTT championship again. I take joy in their March futility, but I would take the above over this yesterday. I was 2 the last time we won it all. The banners are dusty. They mean nothing to me on a personal level. I have no emotional connection to them. I do to the B1G championship teams under Crean. That was a lot more fun than whatever this trainwreck is.
