Hot Damn!

That's a LOT of schekels - probably too much. But with a given budget and one-year rentals it's basically year-by-year. Your top player gets X dollars as long as he's the best available then wipe the slate clean the next year and re-order the payroll.

He said 'type'. Besides, he's following Frazier.

Not being a d*ck, but why are you so confident about this? We don't even know what our roster will look like. The Big ten has MSU, MI, PU, WI, & IL who'll be projected to be battling for the league crown and there will be 3 other teams with new coaches - IA & MD won't be slouches. Finishing 7th or 8th won't 'easily' put us in the tournament, let alone guarantee advancement. Any coach who can put us in the top 5 based on our current position will have to be very good, practically a magician. It'll be great if that is what we have.

Imagine how much worse it would be if we were in the same situation and Tucker was still in the portal and/or Sisley reopened his recruitment.

No other program would have hired Woodson in the first place ffs.

Well, they were serious enough to s-can a lousy coach after 2 seasons rather than 4. Gotta give 'em that.

When and how does a coach determine which type a given player is? Is it during the visit, or before extending an offer. IDK

I think that's exactly right. We're starved for something to be excited about.

No More Excuses

Precisely. We can win with a competent coach because we're Indiana with our "resources". The proof will be in the pudding, but at this point there's been zero to get excited about. Hopefully that will change but thus far meh.

Are there really that many who aren't already in it? LOL

...or Indiana where it doesn't.

I believe it will involve lay-zers...

This boomer calls bullsh*t on your assertion.
