These arguments are why leaving scholly #13 open last season was so egregious ... Woodson's roster already had issued at guard, and then the savior (X) got hurt ... making an inexcusably thin roster at guard even moreso. Also, aren't the athletic budgets built based on full scholarship quotas? So that slot is already budgeted... unless, of course, Woodson has some kind of deal to pocket unused scholarship money. (I'm not suggesting that he does, but then again, we don't really know.)

For sure... Woodson is a joke. No one was even looking at him, but ol' Quinn came riding in to throw $3M+ at him. Any of the names tossed around over the past year or so would be better than Mediocre Mike. And any of them would have had significant NIL money to kickstart their tenure... but we get to watch Mr Ego coach for another season thanks to Buckner et al.

How long has Brad Stevens been out of coaching? He's not a sure thing, either.

The only difference that I see between football and basketball is that IU football has been a dumpster fire for more than 70 years. Sure, there have been moments (Rose Bowl after the '67 season, a few Mallory teams and Hep), but it's been trash for as long as I've been alive. Since Knight was fired, basketball has pretty much been the same dumpster fire as football - a few bright spots showing as anomalies to the Davis/Crean/Archie/Woodson years. I totally understand (and subscribe to) the "lose short term for a chance at long term a win" scenario.

Oh, stop... you're making me blush.

Yeah, gotta protect the inept coach. SMH

Yeah, but he’s Mike Woodson. [emoji15][emoji23]

The only people who can edit the thread title is the original poster and the mod staff. Fire Mike Woodson

Mods are playing mind games. But I still type it all upper case: FIRE MEDIOCRE MIKE WOODSON

Keeping this thread from falling off the front page... Fire Mediocre Mike Woodson

Ok, I’ll say it. First Woodson gets his billionaire buddies to buy him a team, and then he gets the university to buy him a schedule full of cupcakes. How low will he go?

Hopefully this is true. Remember, it's Mediocre Mike Woodson, so he can still crap the bed, even with this team of mercenaries and the cupcake schedule.

#bwahaha! So Woodson's act hasn't fooled DickieV!

Can't cut into his cigar and wine time...
