  1. The worst part about games like these is how broadcasters will say it's an example of how deep the Big Ten is and how every team will get kicked in the mouth multiple times. I'm sure "it's hard to win on the road in the Big Ten" will make the usual rounds and our players won't feel any regrets whatsoever for this turd of a game.
  2. Louisville all over again. I wonder who was out on the town last night?
  3. Seat getting warmer for Katie Gearlds? Purdue 0-5 in the Big Ten after an 87-60 home loss to Michigan today. They've lost 6 games by 20+ points.
  4. Unclutch award of the week goes to South Carolina's Nick Pringle, who missed two free throws with 9 seconds left and his team down by one.
  5. USC up 10 at Illinois and has the ball with 2 minutes left. The other USC is leading Auburn 40-34 at the half.
  6. Wow, USC up 8 with just over 3 minutes left.
  7. Trent Sisley signed back in November. But maybe we shouldn't give Woodson any credit there, because he was probably coming to IU no matter what.
  8. I keep thinking back to when he was hired and was asked about his approach to recruiting, he said "You want to play basketball for Mike Woodson, you come and talk to Mike Woodson." He really thought players would come to him. I don't think that happened like he thought it would, and it's definitely not happening now that recruits have seen his archaic schemes and lack of energy. You have to eat, sleep and breathe this stuff to succeed at this level. I've never gotten the impression he was that committed to doing it. I think he likes the job title, being on the sidelines during games and getting to walk around and be acknowledged as Mike Woodson, Indiana University basketball coach, but he dislikes a lot of the other stuff. Not a whole lot different from Archie Miller in that regard.
  9. Game would already be over if they hadn't added 2-3 seconds after each of the last 3 plays.
  10. Why do they keep adding time?
  11. The run from the 18 was a blatant hold. Not sure how the officials let that go.
  12. Guarantee it would be ignored by all of our critics.
  13. You still get it at the 20 if you fair catch it inside a certain point. I saw that earlier this year in one of our games and thought the refs had screwed up when they brought the ball to the 20. Edit: never mind, I guess that's only on kickoffs.
  14. When I said "actively" recruiting I meant getting off his @$$ and visiting/watching high school players, meeting with them off campus, going to their games, etc. You know, stuff successful coaches do. Good to know that Woodson put in whatever work was necessary to get this kid to come to last night's game. I'm ecstatic at the possibility of doubling the size of our current recruiting class.
  15. It would be incredibly irresponsible to retain a 67 year old coach who isn't actively recruiting anymore and is routinely skipping out on media sessions. The head coach at IU simply cannot be invisible to the public eye. It needs to be made clear to Woodson (if it hasn't already) that if he wants this job, he needs to put forth a lot more effort in these areas.
  16. That game sucked. Hope it was just an off-night.
  17. Which are all the more reasons to move on from him. You simply can't allow the basketball coach of Indiana to blow off the media and be as invisible as he's been in the recruiting landscape. People can think what they want about Scott Dolson, but he's not going to let Mike Woodson stick around if Woodson's just going to continue to half-@$$ everything.
  18. The scouting report must have said closing out on shooters was optional tonight.
  19. Would be nice if we'd quit missing so many shots underneath.
  20. 31-26 at the half. Second quarters continue to plague us. Hopefully we come out swinging in the second half.
  21. Death, taxes, and a Mike Woodson coached team botching a fast break. Kind of makes me miss the Archie Miller days when we never even had fast breaks.
  22. Always nice when we have 3 guys in the paint after a missed shot and somehow none of them can get the rebound.
  23. Anyone want to keep track of how many airballs we've put up tonight?
