I knew I shouldn’t have watched this. Now I won’t be able to sleep. I won’t watch another road game this season.

We are blowing this team out without the insane amount of turnovers. How can we be so damn bad at this. And call a ******* timeout Woody! Ffs. He just sits there with his mouth open catching flies while the crowd goes nuts.

This is gonna get away from us.

Free throws, Turnovers, Awful rebounding. Man…. Not looking good.

Pretty awful 2-3 possessions by TJD there.

Race Thompson has gotten much more athletic since coming to campus.

Nice finish Rob!!!

Iowa 74 IU 67

After the start to the season and how they finished, I think it ultimately falls on Frank Reich and the staff. Time for a change. It’s like his teams only rally around him when they get into almost insurmountable holes. He hitched his wagon to Wentz and it’s clear that they guy isn’t capable of getting it done, with one of the best O-lines in the league. I’m not sure what the answer is but a change in HC is necessary, imho.

Depending on what side of town you’re on, I may see you out there tomorrow. I’m coaching my kids team.

apathy.....I skipped watching the 2nd half of tonights game (kids had 1st Upwards practice) to avoid getting upset. I missed out on Trey Galloway balling out and us dominating the #13 team in the country...... annnnnd im upset now.

“I’ll have whatever he’s having!” Lol. Hope you’re right.

IU - 65 O$U- 70

At least you aren’t an idiot like myself who spent $1500 on IU Purdue tickets….. I was up close for the crossroads classic and I can say with absolute certainty that they are better than us by at least 15-20 points.

We’ll have opportunities but I don’t see it with this team. I think we end up bottom half of the B1G.

Makes sense. Sucks for us. Means we are going to have to get lucky…… and we don’t attract much luck these days.

I made it a point to stop investing time and energy into Indiana basketball after Archie’s 3rd season. I got sucked back in when we all got our hopes up about Brad Stevens being a “done deal.” When we hired Woodson, I wasn’t ready to go back into seclusion but I can see all the warning signs of the past 2 coaching eras. I just don’t think we are going to be much better than middle to bottom of the B1G with who we have now. I’m pretty confident in saying that.

Man I don’t know. These guards are good enough to win with. If it’s anything to do with roster construction, it’s not ability. It’s the fact that we don’t have a single winner on that roster. No one has played a single game in the ncaa tournament. I may be wrong on that but I’m almost certain. As for the coach, we hired a 63 year old man who hadn’t coached a single game in college bc he was an IU alum. Everyone in the country was laughing at us except for half of the IU fanbase. There’s a saying that if you can’t spot the fool at the poker table then you’re the fool. We’re the fools for thinking that this job is what we think it is. I think Dolson went all in on BS, and when he missed, the only option he had was to go the alum route. From what I was told, it was Brad Stevens or an “IU guy.” I like Woodson and think he would have been a good choice back when we fired Sampson. But he’s 63 years old for god’s sake!!! I’m not convinced he has enough years left to even get us onto solid ground. Now we are having to hire ANOTHER coach or promoting Fife from the bench (oof). I’m not upset with Dolson. He went for a grand slam and offered to pony up the dough. Just wasn’t enough. If the IU job truly was a top 5-10 job in college basketball, we wouldn’t have 63 year old Mike Woodson roaming the sideline.

At this point it’s hard to argue against it. Sucks being an IU fan.

They swung for the fences. They just missed. Badly.

Can we never utter that man’s name again, please?

Oof

Agree with you regarding substitutions. The best teams, year in and year out, have 8 man rotations.

I’m gonna say it…… for all the talk about how good the nba coaches are……. I’m not impressed with Mike Woodson at all offensively. Sure this team is better than last years but so is the roster. Lots of standing around and looking lost at the end of shot clocks. Feel free to kill me.
