  1. I mean; in football (especially at QB) you would like to recruit a star QB who can sit behind your upperclassmen for 2 years and then take over junior year being very well versed in your system. (A la Arch Manning at Texas). Obviously the transfer portal has changed that somewhat, but I still think the above is the superior tactic rather than adding a guy for a year. People not interested in a 4/5 star stud QB because he might not be as good as senior Tayven Jackson year 1 is insane to me. And also very short sighted. Yeah, he won't help much next year, but it helps in establishing your program and being able to not miss a beat when your guy graduates.
  2. This is just some guy on reddit with one post (this one). This most likely is a bunch of nonsense. IU might still get him, but I would put no thought into this post.

    I'm sure he did. In no way trying to slight Woodson, I just think he liked Shrewsberry more (if he does indeed pick ND).

    I think it was Shrewsberry more than anything.

    Better than no future cast at all. Hey, at least I respect that more than the guys who wait until an hour before the announcement once everybody else has heard who it is and it's a slam dunk.

    Soon to RETIRE Coach Woodson Thread

    Just now catching up on all this. I'm sure it's been said somewhere... but... Two things can be true. Both the HH's and Mike Woodson can suck. I am not a fan of the HH podcast. I think most of the time, they suck. I am not that bothered by their access getting revoked, it happens. But it takes an extremely little man to fly somebody in town from LA to have a conversation like that, instead of doing it by email or zoom call. Mike Woodson is softer than baby **** with an ego the size of the Grand Canyon. This was the big guy putting down the little guy in the most humilating way possible. It's toxic behavior and gives credence to some of the rumors that were flying around at the end of last year. He has the right friends to get him millions of dollars to build him the best team possible in his eyes. And I wish the team nothing but success and will cheer for their success. But that doesn't mean I have to like Mike Woodson to do so. My guess is IU has a pretty good year; A top 25 team with a good chance to make the sweet 16, and that will be enough to keep the millions flowing in for the next 5 years for Woodson. Barring something catastrophic, it's going to be a while before IU has a new basketball coach.

    Transfer Portal w IU Interest

    I'm pretty confident you can Sharpie in a starting lineup of: Rice, Carlyle, Mbagko, Reneau, and Ballo. With Galloway/Tucker/Portal Big as our top 8 guys. 9-12 will be Cupps, Leal, Newton, and one portal addition (in no particular order) An 11ppg scorer as a freshman (with his talent) isn't transferring here to come off the bench. Gallo thrives in a 6th man role and it's where he should be with the roster currently as constructed.

    Just addressing this point, but X played in 4.5 out 7 games against what I would consider lesser teams last year. We sucked in all of them. Him being on/off the court didn't really matter.

    NCAA MBB Coaching Carousel

    5 years for 5.5 million a year seems like a crazy overpay. That would make Mark Pope the 6th highest paid coach I'm college basketball.
