It’s great no matter where it comes from but I read that as Dolson getting money from the people that tied us to Woodson too long and screwed us over and Buckner was the root issue. hopefully the money is there to get DeVries the roster he wants and we can see what he can do with it.

You think Buckner is ponying up for this roster?

I’ve never done it but if I was an aspiring media journalist I would so I won’t judge people that are aspiring to that career regardless of whether someone thinks they are an asshat. Mainstream media outlets are going the way of the dodo As someone that works in media, there is absolutely no reason for journalists to join a traditional media outlet. The days of ESPN and others controlling all communication with sources are over and have been for a while. like it, don’t like, it’s how we are all going to be getting our information so we might as well get used to it

I get what you are saying but how do you think anyone gets their info? Someone has to cover a story and do the work to get the info and share it. its 2026 and there is little to no difference between ESPN and a Twitter account and in fact info usually comes faster from the independents vs main stream news sources. honest question, what would be an acceptable way to get updates on recruits if nobody is allowed to reach out to them?

I think Branham will make or break DeVries tenure at IU. If he can be a Yogi, a Braden Smith, someone that can come in a lead and create consistency and make others better for 4 years we will be able to build on that. If he isn’t that guy, it could be a tough few years left for him

Estrella would be a great addition! Proven at a p4 against good competition.

He used to slay, looks like he’s given up

Worse than having 4 players on the court in the final minute of the game? I like Houberg but think that was more mal

What happened to Sisley? He ended the season getting almost no run.

I saw a ton of posters saying how refreshing it was to have a coach with a plan, this was stated over and over before the season. I don’t know what that plan was tbh. For 4 years we did nothing but dump it into our bigs and we countered with the exact opposite and both are poor strategies. we need a ton of upgrades in talent and a balanced roster and better coaching. I never once thought to myself when we were blowing leads, “DeVries will call a timeout and get this ironed out”.

I didn’t boo players and haven’t criticized this team much at all and not in this thread. I just don’t think there is anything wrong with criticizing poor play, poor coaching and poor results. I agree about DDV. These young men are going to move on, DDV isn’t, at least not for a few years. He needs to figure this out because I question his ability to evaluate talent, build a team and create an advantage in-game for his team.

We don’t have a team of 18 year olds. You are desperately trying to portray them as kids just out there for the love of the name on the front of the jersey when they are men making men salaries. There is no other industry that pays men this much money for such average results

These are 22 year old men that are making more money than many pros. The criticisms here are totally fair.

I recorded the Mendoza touchdown from my seat. Dm me your number if you want me to share it
