2024 Indiana Football Appreciation Thread
Hoosier987 replied to Stuhoo's topic in Indiana Hoosiers Football
A mobile qb would be fantastic….and I think that’s what Cig is looking for. In all of Rourke’s positive attributes, his one negative was glaring - no mobility. -
We took advantage of a weak schedule but no chance in hell we’re a top 12 team:

They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread
Hoosier987 replied to Banksyrules's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
The problem is...Woodson complicates his defense tremendously. Instead of playing and keeping it simple, the players always look like they're thinking where they need to be. Also, if you're going to play a defense that switches 1-5 (like we do), then you should have a quicker and smaller lineup in...not a big lineup (like we do) where we're always a step slower...Yet another Woodson beauty. This really isn't rocket science. -

As long as he's protected by Buckner...he may be going nowhere despite people howling for his job. Woodson and Buckner probably don't care what people want or think. For instance, all of AH could boo Woodson and he probably wouldn’t be phased lol. -

White was a big blow...yet we still got into the tournament. For anyone that doesn't remember. White/Killingsworth >>> Ballo/Reneau, and it's not even close. -

Unfathomable at the time is correct. Davis' last year we were a 6th seed in the tournament that was ousted in the 2nd round. If Woodson accomplished that, he would think he's top coach in the BIG. With that said, this is different. Woodson has Buckner backing him which means it's not going to be a foregone conclusion that he is terminated at year's end....it's going to take major cojones from someone if a push for a change is made. -

That’s the thing. Woodson is the hump. -

You can’t play MR and OB together. It’s so basic that it’s sad at this point that Woodson refuses to change. -

He did…but Woodson’s style is so out dated that other players thrive in a modern style offense. -

Gotta love Woodson. Also, Gunn dropped 22 today -

There may not be another coach in America who could screw up a 6 million dollar roster. Unfortunately, we have that 1 coach that will and nothing will change as long as Low Energy Mike is the head of the program -

Exactly…I don’t think Woodson is just going to leave and him being fired is not a foregone conclusion with Buckner backing him. What makes anyone think that Buckner cares? -

Hoosier987 replied to Banksyrules's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Listen, Woody is really sucking….but I don’t think this is going to be a foregone conclusion. As long as Woody has Buckner backing him….it could be very tough to move on. Again, force Buckner to sit in the front row until this is fixed. -

Hoosier987 replied to Naturalhoosier's topic in Indiana Football Recruiting Forum
Apparently Mendoza is visiting UCLA this weekend and has a real chance. It is strange that Sunseri is still on the staff while actively recruiting against us for possibly the most important player of the portal season. I’m not a fan of it. -
They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread
Hoosier987 replied to Banksyrules's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
We just can’t assume Woodson will be fired or retire. Woodson doesn’t report to Dolson. Woodson said in so many words to the hysterics that “he ain’t going nowhere” and that he will leave when Woodson decides it’s time to leave. It all comes down to whether Dolson has the cojones to make the move… -

I was about to say. What makes anyone think Buckner cares? I don’t. Buckner probably cares less than Low Energy Mike. -

Is he even Medicore? 25% of Sleepy Mikes coached games end in blow out losses (15+ points). That’s quite literally awful and he’s doing it with million dollar players lol. These aren’t walk ons -

Woodson might start hearing boo birds at home if he can’t change this program around quickly. -

Woodson utilizes Ballo like he’s TJD and Ware. Obviously he’s neither of those players but Sleepy Mike hasn’t figured that out yet. -

Hoosier987 replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Remember with our mult-million dollar roster and talent that anything less than a 4 seed and second weekend appearance would be a failure for this year's talented team? Now we're talking about how to just squeeze into the tournament. LOL. The CMW impact of leading a college bball team in the modern era of college ball. -
IUBB @ Nebraska - Friday, 12.13.24 @ 8:00 ET on Fox TV
Hoosier987 replied to Class of '66 Old Fart's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
Despite our overwhelming talent in comparison to Nebraska's, I expect a big loss. Why? Because Hoiberg employs a modern style of offense - including shooting multiple 3 pointers - in comparison to our stone age offense...that's a lot of overcome. 3 points > 2 points. Also, Nebraska will play hard for the full 40 minutes, we almost assuredly won't. These will more than make up the large disparity of talent that favors us. Again, 3 points > 2...it's why we've been blownout an ungodly amount of times with Woodson as coach...when teams start draining 3's, it starts snowballing. Even when we make our baskets, we're still losing every possession. Another food for thought...outside of Northwestern and Syracuse, no other team attempts less 3 pointers that us...however, we attempt just about more long 2's than anyone else (approximately 5 per game). Why not step back a foot and make those long two point attempts 3 point attempts? Seems like an easy fix...yet it hasn't been fixed for 4 years. -

These are the type of games where you need to win by 25 plus points to have positive metrics. Yet again, probably won’t happen. -

The APR issue was non-existent until they fired Sampson. At that point several of the players stopped going to class that second semester because they saw the writing on the wall....hence the failing grades.
