    College Bball Thread

    At this level, that should never happen.
  2. This team over the last few years has made me a fan of women's basketball. They played the way the game is supposed to be played. So proud of the way they represented Indiana. I'd be proud to have any of them as a daughter.
  3. It looks like a mismatch on paper, but there's a reason that we actually play the games.

    Love the way these women play. A pleasure to watch. Now go shock the world.

    They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

    This has been really comical to me. The angst, the gnashing of teeth, the doomsday predictions. On top of that, the trashing of legendary IU basketball players who have done the work to actually accomplish something. Let's start with Quinn Buckner. He was the point guard on the last undefeated national championship team. Arguably the best college basketball team ever. Nothing but respect from me. I've seen shots taken at I. Thomas. One of the best point guards ever and the reason that '81 banner is hanging in Assembly Hall. Maybe CMW is not the guy who brings IU back to national prominence. But he was an outstanding player and he deserves respect for that. I truly don't understand the mentality of fans in the social media era. Admittedly, I'm one of the old guys. I go back to Branch McCracken. I've seen IU basketball at best and at its worst. If we ever want to right this ship, it needs to start with respecting those who built the legacy, not making fun of them. CBK was lightning in a bottle. We've been though several coaches since and none have measured up to our standards. Maybe the problem is us. Just my unsolicited opinion. Flame away, at this point I don't care.

    They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

    As in life in general, the people with the money get to make the decisions. What the high rollers want, the high rollers get.
  7. Congratulations to the players and Coach Woodson for finishing the regular season strong . There is more that I would like to say but in the interest of decorum, and out of respect for this sites moderators, I will leave it at that.
  8. IU - 79 Rodents - 73 Cant wait until football.
  9. It's been a disappointing season to say the least. Time to move on to whatever is next.
  10. Don't care about uniforms at all at this point. They can play naked as far as I'm concerned.

    Exactly right! They say, "there's no fool like an old fool", and for some reason this old fool is buying what CCC is selling.

    IUFB Offseason Updates

    Given where IU football has been, we need every advantage we can get. If we can train better to lessen the chance of injury and keep our best players on the field longer, that can mitigate our depth issues to some degree.

    I've found that no matter what you do, structure and process equals success. CCC has those in spades.

    There are multiple coaches who could do well at IU. Whoever OSU might hire doesn't change that dynamic much.

    I rarely get annoyed with posters, but man, make your point and move on. My IQ is about average for an old guy and even I got it the first time.

    IUFB Offseason Updates

    Sad to say, but I'm way more excited about football right now than basketball. Never thought I would say that.
