    Saw a story up on another site about IU’s losing streak at Wisconsin — 

    It started with RMK, lost his last game there in 2000, then the streak went to 19 straight covering 23 years. Crazy

    Davis 5 straight

    Sampson his only trip

    Crean 8 straight (but 2013 team didn’t play there, and some of those were the rebuild years)

    Miller 3 straight

    Woodson 2 (first we were up 22 in the 1st half)

    I can’t stand Wisconsin. Need to get IU ball back to the quality coaching and teams that used to pound them

    That Wiscy game I think was the tipping point for Woodson. 


  2. I have never seen this program with less interest or hope.  The stupid, incredibly stupid decision to hire Woodson has basically been the final nail in the coffin.  Anybody who can remember our last NC Is old enough to have multiple bottles of Tylenol in their house 


  3. Anybody surprised by this at all has not been paying attention to what a joke we are right now. We routinely get embarrassed by team operating with a fraction of the resources. And that’s been going on for 16 years

    Had some sunshine pumper tell me yesterday to go be a Purdue fan and trust the process. Wonder how that stooge is feeling right about now. 

    Man trying to figure out our rotation next year is going to be insane.  A walk on might end up starting.

    Think of this as a positive.  We miss the tournament next season he's gone guaranteed.   The last thing anyone wants is another opening weekend blowout and then a year 5.  Always better to get the bandage off as quickly as possible. 

    Keeping a crap coach for 4 years doesn’t make us less of a joke.

    There used to be a time where I dreaded hiring an IU guy because I thought it would be Alford.  Then in IU fashion we somehow find another IU guy that makes Alford look like John Wooden

    Next IU basketball coach is going to be Jared Fogle at the rate this program is tanking

    Any player that attempts a 3 in tryouts is cut on site.

    Damn right we are here to play fundamental 1960s basketball.  We are basically the team from Glory road before the coach let his team play good

    What happens when IU loses these next 3 (including to Michigan.) get no one in the portal and lose to like FGCU next year game one instead of winning by like 4. 

    We make excuses like we always do

    Reports say a slow moving black man with Goatee pulled fire alarm after game tied up.  Said his seat was HOT!

    Came here to make this joke.  But alas like our in game adjustments. I was to slow

    The only good Coach IU has had in my lifetime of watch IU in 23 years has been 1 coach, Kelvin Sampson, for 1.5 years until he got fired for text messages before the texting deadline.  1 year later, his violation was no longer a violation.  I want a good coached Hoosier team finally.  This is BS.  I've watched every ******* game for 23 years and ... I mean..listen to woodsons pregame vs Wisconsin press conference.  The man is clueless.

     

    We thought we had to bring Knight back to end the curse. Maybe we need to invite Sampson back instead

    Dolson  has done a good job at IU. Most of our teams are really good or starting to look like it is going in tbe right direction. I feel like Woodson was not his hire and if given a chance would hire a really good basketball coach. It appears like he has a really good football coach and was allowed to pick the coach he wanted.

    Doesn’t matter how well you do in the non revenue sports if your revenue sports suck.

    Didn’t go well the first two for Archie.But then Archie had a relatively good season—the Covid year. When the next year went bad it was bye bye Archie.

    Miller like Woodson had the writing on the wall with recruiting missed and roster construction.  And lack of player development.  
     

    Which further illustrates to me that the bad coaches are a symptom of deeper issues

    Seeing all you on here saying he will be back is dumb. Iu hasn't imo kept a coach after it was undeniably not going to work. Some will disagree. Both Archie and crean had either really good recruits coming in or a season that could be at the least mildly competitive. It's over for Woodson. Not alot coming in. This season is beyond unsuccessful. The fans in attendance have turned vial. Rest assured imo Woodson is history without some major turnaround. I am confident by our numbers all season that isn't happening.

    Disagree I would argue that Miller showed definitely he wasn’t going to work sooner than Woody

    Then the program gets a death penalty from the IU administration.

    Imagine what we would have done if Sampson had orchestrated fake classes.  Probably would have cancelled the program and fielded a European handball team instead
