    Here’s a problem for Woodson too. We have a roster where there’s no help on the way really for what we are missing. He needs to keep the guys we have and land a solid contributor in the transfer portal. Our best guard is gone after this year and we have two guys clearly staring down the NBA although their play against good teams might indicate they aren’t ready. That doesn’t mean they are staying. He either needs to keep everybody and get one stud. Or get up to 3-4 studs in the portal. That’s not realistic given his track record. Currently we look to be a worse team in year 4. Peaking in year 2 is not a recipe for success

    Exactly it’s year 3. This is Woodsons team if he didn’t want a player he’s had more than enough time to replace them

    Nope sorry that’s a cop out. That’s a reason to not get the quality of players we would like. But everybody on this board thought we could use another guard in the off-season and we didn’t get one. And we had fewer holes last year so seems strange

    Why do we have glaring roster holes in year 3?

    Colts / NFL Game Thread

    Somewhat decent chance the colts can win the division after being swept by the jags. Would be interested if that’s ever happened before

    No team with Trayce Jackson Davis can be called a complete dumpster fire

    Sampson was the only serious coaching hire we have made since Knight. None of the other hires were the moves of a serious program.

    We gave ourselves the death penalty after convincing ourselves

    It’s not a bug it’s a feature NCAA is doing exactly what it’s supposed to be doing

    Can’t watch the game but seems like a pretty similar story. We felt the pressure and crumpled like a paper cup

    Not able to watch today but really hoping the team can keep up this execution and get the win

    It’s a great watch. Not sure I ever need to rewatch it but thoroughly enjoyed the watch.

    Prayer Thread

    Thanks for all the prayers folks start my new job on Monday. It’s a bit of a pay cut but i get to stay on first shift which was a real priority for me my daughter is 6 almost 7 and I want to be with her as much as possible while she still wants me around. Im going to be helping my wife with her business by handing Social media presence and trying to help create passive income so fingers crossed I can figure that out and maybe parlay that experience into a career change down the line

    True. The interest alone on that first years 68 million woolf be a huge amount

    I think they should change it to where in total you can defer the average salary of the life of the contract and then defer however much they want each year but this is just dumb. Or force the team to pay them that amount up front so they can’t just make a stupid decision and say it’s the futures problem.

    Any shred of faith I had in NBA officiating died with Dwayne Wade. The concept that big market teams with superstars getting help isn’t exactly new it’s been happening since the 80s

    After some thought I think I am finally on board with more tightly regulated mlb salaries. This was just insane

    I just don’t get the feeling the refs will let the pacers beat the lakers in this match up.

    They indeed turned this into a movie. Coming out on Christmas only took 3 years lol

    Begs the question how many billions the two LA teams have spent in the last decade for a single World Series
  25. I don’t think with Woodsons track record he is going to get guards. Purdue is out recruiting us despite our NiL because at the end of the day players know they have a chance to win some basketball. It’s pretty clear that JHS was the exception not the rule for Woodson with guards.
