IU has needed that since RMK. Sampson sure can coach and would have been great provided however he could not stop doing things that were impermissible. And IU's oversite was belated at best, non-existent at worst. And then we self reported which most colleges do not do. It was totally out of control.

What else could he say? On the other hand, we learned a lot more about Dusty May's 2nd half coaching and effectiveness. Also something about the guard part of the roster construction. Strikes Dusty May off of my BINGO card.

Another one goes down the drain.

Do not drive yourself home.

Michigan not hitting from out. Killing us in the paint.

Gallo didn't hit him hard enough.

Well, Armond gets a mulligan.

2 point game under 5 minutes

8:22 remaining, Meatchicken by 3 timeout

3 point game 11 minutes

Did I again see Miles Rice with the ball with 2 seconds left in the first half shooting a wild shot? I keep having this recurring nightmare about ... oh jeez...........

Yes, saw on X that Rice loves Woody.

The lack of good coaching and good shooting and...contribute significantly to no one doing well on this team. Except for maybe 2 guys. One is a starter.

Why is Galloway not in and Rice not out? Why not have Goode in? Where is the defense? Can we finish one shot? Why is Woody still here? Why am I watching this?

Exactly. And that is the reason I could not change my prediction back to the Hoosiers. I really, really wanted to. But Miles and Woody here today...well...

Thanks, Mr. Truthful. But thought this site could use the clicks.

When does Sammy Terry come on?

Not yet. He's still coaching today.

It was more than clear at the IU's loss to Auburn in Atlanta. I wondered when TJD was here, why can't IU win bigger and more often? But that Auburn game was when I threw in my towel, my striped pants, my rose-colored glasses, and my toupee. Started drinking more and enjoying it less. My shrink even suggested going over to the dark side and cheering for our opponents. Tossed him under the bus. Got a medical permit for wacky tobacky. Started getting my Rx from Joe on the corner downtown. Even started doing trancendental medication. Nothing works. But...maybe...is it too much to hope for? A coach? Like Coach Cig...but for basketball?

(Clutches pearls...) Hey, he is not a POS. Really do not like saying those things about a fellow human being. He "may have" his priorities wrong. He may have a rough personality and approach to control issues. Etc. He may not know the difference between an X and an O. (Throws pearls away!) Dagnabit! He should not have been hired. WTF anyhow?! Holy Flung Poo, Batman! BEGONE WOODY. Go IU! (Looking for lost pearls and marbles...)

Is there an injury report yet on the two teams? Is Woody on it?

The press release is slightly different from Coach Cignetti's: “We’re trying to do something special Saturday, and I want our IU students there to experience it,” Cignetti wrote. “It’s been 57 years since IU Football started a season 5-0, but we have a chance to do it Saturday with a win over a very good Maryland team. We have every intention of making it happen, and I’m asking for your support. “We need you there for the opening kick. We need you there in the stands being loud in the first quarter. And the second quarter. And in the third. And, most importantly, in the fourth. “When the clock hits zero and we’re 5-0, I want you there to be able to celebrate a historic win with us. “The tailgates can wait. The parties can wait. If you need to study, that can wait too. “There are good things happening with IU Football, and you’re a big part of it. “I look forward to seeing you for four quarters on Saturday.”

Woodson and IU probably have an agreement to write up and sign the renegotiated exit contract. Now comes the hard parts: 1. Watching Woodson 'coach' the final games of his era. Wondering if he will step away from even showing up during the games. If he doesn't actively coach games from here on out then who? 2. Dolson probably has a very short list of prospective winning coaches, feelers had been likely going out for a while through the hired consultants. 3. Closing the contract with Brad Stevens or Plan B & etc. 4. And most importantly, at the last second if Woody doesn't show pregame Saturday, should I change my prediction for the Michigan game from a loss to a win? /s
