They deserve each other.

Well, he spent time with Dana Altman, so there's that.

It's Indiana. It's Indiana! Oh, wait, you weren't talking about us. :D

Nice. UNC had the balls to do what Buckner refused to do. That's why we suck.

SIAP

Don't let @AH1971 hear you talking like that... he still believes that Woodson deserved year 4, despite him not being able to clear the hump.

You do not / cannot know that for sure.

Who's delusional now? Otzelberger, Oats, May, Donovan? Would love to see them give it to Sean May. Let's see how that works out for them.

Not to mention a legitimate shot at Dusty May.

And that was pre-NIL.

Maybe. Does he have a buddy sitting in the trustee board chair? (Asking for a friend.)

It's clear that May has made the adjustment... hopefully, DeVries will, as well.

If your "most successful" coach can't coach against a zone defense or get past the Sweet 16 with the #2 and #4 players in the NBA draft, I'd argue that your "most successful" guy is not good enough. But, yeah, keep arguing.

Imagine that. They're acting like an actual basketball team - improving as the season progresses and peaking as the tournament starts.

Quinn Buckner needs to stay in his lane and keep his nepotistic fingers off of the athletic department. If I were in charge, I'd remove him from the IU athletics hall of fame for this crap. His interference in the hiring and retention of Mike Woodson has superseded any positives from his playing days. As long as he's on the BoT, a repeat is possible. Thankfully, he's no longer chairman, but he should have been kicked to the curb for actions. He's a stain on the university.

Yep. Paraphrasing, everybody wants to win, but not everyone is willing to do the work required to win.

Maybe we're still talking about him because he's the only semi-capable coach that we've had in the last 25 years. Crean was manic and odd, but he did manage to win more than the rest. Archie was a bust and we should not have ever considered the Mediocre One.

UVA with a dagger 3... up 78-70 with 80 seconds

Hofstra up 28-18 over 'Bama with 8½ to go in the first.

I guess it was legit, per Serratore, but to me that 'T' was pretty much a non-thing...

UVA on a 9-0 run... up 6 with under 8 mins to go. Iowa State putting the hurt on Tennessee State... up 36-9 with just over 8 mins to go. Hofstra up early on Alabama (18-16).

The Indiana football program was a dog. Everybody knew it. We had 100 years of crappy history. Basketball is different. We used to be somebody, and on some levels, we still think we are. And we've tried for the las 25-30 years to fix basketball with not much to show for our effort except lots of mediocre results. If it was an easy fix, what's taking so long?

Good luck with that. It's not "really that simple". We're just another has-been program now trying to find our way back. Even with NIL and the portal, no top coach is leaving a top program to come here and save us. If we can catch lightning in a bottle again (like we did with Cig), we might get lucky with an up and comer who's willing to give it a shot - and he might get lucky and actually make some noise for us, Otherwise, we're (Scott Dolson) is gonna have to just keep plugging away to find the right guy and ride the wave for a few years to see if we got a winner. DeVries has all the markings of a winner to me... but we'll have to see if last season was just a though deal resulting from a really rough start, or if he's just another in the string of hopefuls.

Should have called a flop on Debyantsa... don't think there was any contact.
