AZ Hoosier

The inference here is that there is organizational synergy.

Not to pick nits, but Purdue is +25 and IU is -20... either way, we suck hard...

Just saw this in my news feed: http://hoosierhuddle.com/hoosier-blog/indiana-football-jersey-number-changes-and-assignments-for-roster-additions/2025/1/30

Dude, pass the bong. /s

Still doing my job The schedule is tougher now Still fighting the hump

The fans love me, but Scott, please make them stop booing I'm doing my job

The threats, if true, are sick... but it's even worse to concoct the story to garner some sympathy for the Little Ego that Can't.

and the worse part is that they seem to think that they are actually helping Woodson retain his job...

Yep... like "driving past a wreck and can't look away" curious.

"Daddy, make them stop booing me. It hurts my snowflake feelings", Mike Woodson

Likewise... been alcohol free for over 40 years... but I have BTB to get me through the Woodson era.

It's paywalled... but it's Doyle, so I pretty much can guess what is says...

So, was Leal’s “like” a confirmation of the “fact” that the threat happened? Or, was it to express his opinion about the “threat”? Or, did Woodson miss an NIL payment?

Optics. It’s telling a story.

Dead. Wrong. If Woodson had played elsewhere he'd never be fired... because he'd never have been hired. End. Of. Story.

https://www.insidethehall.com/2025/01/29/a-player-by-player-breakdown-of-indianas-roster-through-10-conference-games/ Malik Reneau Reneau has missed five of Indiana’s 10 Big Ten games and barely played in the Rutgers game on Jan. 2. He’s averaging 8.4 points and 3.8 rebounds in 17.3 minutes in league play. The Miami, Florida, native is shooting 43.2 percent in conference play. He’s shooting 48.5 percent on 2s after making 59.7 percent of his 2s a season ago. Trey Galloway Galloway, who underwent offseason knee surgery, has regressed in his fifth season in Bloomington. He does rank 10th in the Big Ten in assist rate at 26.7 percent, but the rest of his numbers are underwhelming. Galloway is making just 40 percent of his 2s and 29.3 percent of his 3s in 10 Big Ten games. He’s also shooting just 53.8 percent from the free-throw line. His 25 turnovers are also a team-high. Bryson Tucker Shot selection has been an issue all season for Tucker, a 2024 McDonald’s All-American. In Big Ten games, he’s shooting 41.5 percent on 2s and 10 percent on 3s (10 attempts). He has only four assists in over 126 minutes in league games. After missing the Ohio State game with an injury, Tucker was dressed for the last two games but did not play.

Especially when that statement includes the phrase "two fingers". :D

He already has too many reasons to kick Woodson to the curb, IMO. HS Recruiting. Player Development. Scheduling Cupcakes to inflate his record. In-game coaching. Xs and Os. Attitude/Hubris.

Not as far as I know...

And she certainly isn't "calm[ing] the fan base down"... her appearance has always shown the opposite effect.

The concept of NIL was supposed to be pay for endorsements and use of the student's name, image and likeness. What we have is a bastardization of that concept... and it's a free-for-all payment to lure talent to your school. That desperately needs to be fixed... But with that said, if a school is paying you 6 figures to play basketball, is it too much to ask that you actually perform? Same goes for the coach... Woodson is paid an obscene amount of money to do what he has yet to do at Indiana University - recruit, develop and coach young men to play basketball well at Indiana University. He's clueless, and entitled and full of himself. He is adamant that he has done his job while clearly underperforming in the recruiting front, grossly lacking in the ability and willingness to develop talent and skills, and absolutely clueless regarding in-game coaching, player substitution and putting his team in a position to win games. Drizzle, drazzle, druzzle, drome... time for this one to go home.

IMO it's a collective fabrication to try to build cover for Woodson's epic failure. If he can't convince is he's the greatest coach ever, he's trying to garner sympathy.

Mediocre Mike: "There was no confusion." my @$$

It's easy. We have a crappy, entitled and arrogant coach to fire. Keep the cats out of the Fire Mike Woodson thread. Fire. Mike. Woodson.
