Were those whispers ignored when someone had the brilliant idea to hire Mike Woodson too? Instead of the dessert table we decided to head straight for the scraps no one else wanted.

But the stakeholders are indifferent.

I would love to know who the portal recruit was. I assume they didn't specify.

Purdue will always be known as 66-0 from this point on.

OMG This game just doesn't stop being awesome.

I want 60!

Wow. We are legit doing what we want on offense. Purdue has completely given up.

This night is magical. Something special is in the air right now. Destroying our rival, Bloominton in the snow, playoff berth on the horizon.

Why are these players still even on the field at this point?

Eat sh1t Ryan Day!! You too Howard.

I would love to know what Ryan Day's heart rate is right now.

Purdue lost their all-everything center from last year plus another starting forward, loses their starting center a few games into this season, yet based on early returns I'll be shocked if they're anything worse than a 3 seed in the tournament. Just a frustrating thought I had today that I guess is a fit for this thread seeing how we are going backwards while they're going forward.

Miraculous that all of a sudden we got less tired. I guess Cliff Marshall isn't a scapegoat today.

We messed up so badly not getting Dusty May. Still, I would put together a hefty package and try to pry him away. Josh Scherz is very intriguing. See how serious Tony Bennett is about retirement, and if a $5M/yr NIL budget would make things interesting. Just get a winner. Make a list. Put everyone with a lifetime winning percentage of less than 50% in the left column, and everyone else in another column. Eliminate the left column.

I just hope the donors who contributed the most to our NIL realize their money is going to be completely wasted with Woodson at the helm, and can use their influence to force a change in hopes to salvage the remainder of the season with an interim coach.

Mgbako about to get thrown out. My God.

About as good of a start as you could ask for. We're Gonzaga, right?

The sad thing is that we could markedly improve from yesterday and still not even cover the spread.

Sure I could see that. November is usually when teams start running out of energy after the grind of, ya know, 6 or 7 games into the season.

Fire him now, don't even let him back on the team plane. He's the biggest mistake IU has made in my lifetime. Make him book his own flight home.

Mark my words: he resigns by the end of January and coaches the remainder of the season.

Man, not a good feeling. Just get the vibe the committe's goal is to keep IU out, and use whatever criteria they need to to justify doing so, while not holding your teams like SMU to the same standard. Really rooting for South Carolina and Syracuse this weekend.

Wow screw Day. I hope Michigan upsets them next week.

Well this game is officially over. I just hope we can make it somewhat respectable to save a chance at the playoffs. A blowout would give a lot of ammo to the naysayers about us getting in and I wouldn't necessarily disagree.

OSU is ripe for an upset. They're good but not a juggernaut by any means. Let's go boys. Shock the world and get arguably the biggest win of the program's history.
