Well, a couple of years ago it meant getting a million dollar raise, so we don’t exactly have any reasons to be confident in the powers that be.

Dude was out of coaching entirely for two seasons before we came calling. Just a laughably bad hire made worse by IU’s refusal to cut its losses and move on before the bottom completely falls out.

IU gave Mike Woodson 4 more years than any serious school would ever even think of giving him.

#daunted. Idk if we’ll make it back to the playoff but I have far more confidence in Coach Cig building a consistent winner then I do in our basketball program ever figuring it out.

Yeah he definitely doesn’t deserve the “retirement” cop out. Not after all the crap he’s spewed over the past four years. He absolutely deserves a firing.

I’ll believe this is Woodson’s last year when i see it. That’s not a dig at anyone at all. My faith in IUBB doing the right thing is simply nonexistent.

Bringing the red meat to the party right in time for Christmas! I dont blame anyone who leaves the program while this staff is in place. Unfortunately, we as fans don’t have that option and have to ride it out.

Yeah, no offense to “JuJu,” but a very generous 6’0, 185 pound 18 year old is not what the doctor ordered for IU’s Big 10 slate. I’m rolling with the 6’5, 230 pound guy with 20 college starts at a P4 program under his belt. Plus the odds of him staying at one school for his college career are 0% on the high end.

What an insane difference a year can make. From 9 wins in three years to 11-2, a playoff berth, and a quarterback recruiting win over Georgia. Build Coach Cig his statue already!

Because like @RaceToTheTop said, Beck was almost certainly leaving after this year before the injury and if anything, this injury makes it more likely he’ll be back. Mendoza started all of last season and 8 games his freshman year. He’s not coming to Georgia to sit behind Beck all next year when he can go elsewhere and start.

? He’s not transferring to play in next week’s game. Beck’s injury is completely irrelevant.

Herbstreit’s a freaking loser. Dude spent all weekend twerking for the SEC, watched Tennessee get throttled live, and then went right back to “I don’t want to hear about wins” immediately after. Utter clown behavior.

Tom Brady wouldn’t beat my grandma in a sprint but he had elite mobility within the pocket.

I’d actually love for them to make the next round of games on campus too. I hate football in domes personally, and the vibes are just better on campus. I think tinkering with the seeding is the way to go for next year. The first round would’ve been more competitive with ASU and Boise State playing in it.

Why?

Herbstreit’s still glazing the SEC while Tennessee is getting dog walked.

A better question would be whether Woodson could name all his players..

Tennessee really making a compelling argument to upend the playoff format to let in even worse SEC teams. I think the 12 team playoff is great. They just need to get rid of the auto byes for the top four conference champions. No reason for Boise State and ASU to get byes.

Paul Finebaum watching this game right now.

Meh, who cares. Sure, we didn’t play well. But outside of the 98 yard run, our defense made Notre Dame earn everything. Our offense couldn’t do anything, but it’s not like they were scoring touchdowns left and right. Regardless, I mean Alabama scored 3 points and gain 234 yards against a crappy Oklahoma team a month ago and the SEC stans are acting like it’s some big injustice that they were left out of the playoff. We have a similar game for the first 55 minutes against Notre Dame and they’re acting like it’s the end of the year. If Tennessee keeps getting throttled like they have been so far will any of the SEC folks keep the same energy they’ve had about IU? Of course not. I just don’t care what any of them have to say. They’re dishonest hacks.

They’re petulant children who are throwing tantrums because their baby Alabama didn’t get into the playoff. Blowouts are absolutely nothing new in the playoffs. But because we aren’t a football brand, our ”blowout” is a referendum on our worthiness

Didn’t want him starting but would’ve been a good backup next year. Oh well, if he doesn’t want to be part of what IU is building then see ya.

Dead last. He has more resources than probably any other team in the conference and he hasn’t done jack s*** with them.

They act like blowouts never happened in the 4 team playoff. In 2022, TCU lost by 58 points. In 2021, both semifinal games were decided by 21+ points. In 2020, ND lost by 17 and Clemson lost by 21. In 2019, Oklahoma lost by 35. Basically every year at least one game is a blowout. We didn’t play well at all, but it’s nowhere close to the worst we’ve seen.
