Still trying to play sheriff, I see.

He's heard "from a donor through a source that I absolutely trust ... they got their guy. Obviously they haven't told anyone, but that's the way you do these things ... you don't fire somebody without having a very good idea of who you're gonna hire as a replacement"

Yeah, Sterling doesn't have the best track record... but using him to confirm stuff that we're hearing a good thing...

As long as it's not Brownell, Turgeon or Facial Hair, I will find a way to survive...

Kent Sterling

We just spent 4 years with a guy who wasn't qualified... what's your point?

Woodson added that to the repertoire that last week after the UCLA game... note that he did not replace the hump... just added another obstacle... https://www.insidethehall.com/2025/02/15/mike-woodson-still-struggling-to-explain-ius-late-game-woes-i-wish-i-had-the-answer/

Well, not his job to get them shots... and Woodson doesn't miss the shots or FTs

The Apple Sports app does...

so is the "ignore" button... sooner or later we all reach our limit with some people.

Not sure I agree... one arrogant, incompetent hack of a mediocre NBA coach got about $20M from the university... seems to be set for life...

I can't speak to the flight info, but the stuff about Wisconsin and the news leaking is absolutely true... Knight was at West Point when he heard about the news leaking from Madison and called them, backed out and re-uped with Army...came to IU in 1972. Loose lips sink coaching deals. This story has been documented many times in the media... https://www.jsonline.com/story/sports/college/uw/2023/11/02/bob-knight-was-approved-as-uw-basketball-coach-in-1968-but-walked-away/71421063007/ https://www.espn.com/blog/bigten/post/_/id/136952/excerpt-how-bo-schembechler-and-bob-knight-couldve-been-badgers https://www.leadertelegram.com/sports/remembering-when-bob-knight-was-announced-as-the-new-wisconsin-mens-basketball-coach/article_c13081c2-8888-11ee-b10f-ef872fee9881.html

I understand... and was kind of being a curmudgeon... but I get the sentiment...

I'm off to buy a lottery ticket.. after all of these years, I finally found something that I could agree with from @Josh /s

When I hear stuff like this, my mind goes back to Wisconsin and Bob Knight... the deal was all but signed, but people in Madison could not keep their mouths shut, and Knight walked away. A year later he was in Bloomington and history was being made.

that's not what she said

Awesome... now we can finally cross him off the list.

Before tipoff ...won't get past Lappas.

I thought Crutchfield sold car audio...

at least 5 more games... maybe a few more if the Wizard of Broad Ripple gets hot.

Sounds like Crean and his "It's Indiana" schtick... but he burned bridges with Indiana HS and AAU coaches... and recruited guys like Oladipo, Priller, Sheehey, Muniru, Cody, Hanner, Yogi, April, Anonuby, Gelon... he was all over the map... and for every really good recruit that he got, he managed to sign a bust or two... Every coach misses on a recruit or two... but we need a guy who can do better than 50%... and then do the development

We put Trilly on it...

I'm sure many of us could use a good therapy session...

Man, BTB is the gift that keeps on giving... never a dull moment, for sure!
