Why do they keep adding time?

The run from the 18 was a blatant hold. Not sure how the officials let that go.

Guarantee it would be ignored by all of our critics.

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.

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.

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.

That game sucked. Hope it was just an off-night.

65-60 IU, 29 seconds.

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.

This game is giving me Butler vibes. 43-39.

The scouting report must have said closing out on shooters was optional tonight.

Would be nice if we'd quit missing so many shots underneath.

31-26 at the half. Second quarters continue to plague us. Hopefully we come out swinging in the second half.

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.

Always nice when we have 3 guys in the paint after a missed shot and somehow none of them can get the rebound.

Anyone want to keep track of how many airballs we've put up tonight?

Our fans need to be quiet. 3 times they've come to their feet when USC had the ball, all 3 times USC silenced them with a 3.

Whenever you hear someone talk about how knowledgeable our fanbase is, remember that we had people who thought Dusty May was comparable to Archie Miller.

Pregame nap probably ran a little too long.

He brought a lot of it on himself. From publicly complaining about his salary to openly talking about his desire to coach in the NBA some day, he never came off as someone the fans should rally behind. I think a lot of the mythologies about how IU is a bad job because the fans aren't good to the coaches started with his whining about how he was treated here.

In case anyone was wondering what else the Colts could possibly screw up, losing to the godawful Giants last week allowed the Titans to move up to #1 in the draft. So another elite prospect enters the Colts' division. lol

Only a few hours later, looks like we already have our answer...

I'm not all that confident we beat PSU at home. I think they'll shoot better than 3/21 from deep next time, because everybody shoots better in Assembly Hall, and by February 26th I expect team morale to be a lot worse than it is right now.

Nothing like an overtime win over the 4-12 Jags to cap off another thrilling season. So, who's getting fired tomorrow? Ballard? Bradley? Someone else? Or will Irsay have another kumbaya session and then announce extensions for everybody?

Since a handful of posters have taken it upon themselves to repeatedly post that he'll still be around, I say go for it.
