    Izzo, during the timeout chat: "I don't like the way it's being called. How's that?" 
    Rick Pizzo, sideline guy: "Tom Izzo, with some strong words about the officiating."
    Kevin Kugler: "Either that, or the broadcasters." 
    Gotta admit -- that made me chuckle.

    I love that BTN's opening B-roll for the tournament includes Edey just blatantly elbowing a Nebrasketballer in the head. Poor guy probably got ejected for having his head in the way.

    That's the message.  If everything is not "fine" then what's being done about it?  All I see is "blame the fans."

    This was a quote from Media day.  "Woodson is laser-focused on his goals: Big Ten and national titles. He lamented falling short in his first pair of seasons, and knows he’ll need more from his group to reach the pinnacle."
    So, beginning of the year Woody lamented falling short in years 1 and 2.  
    His goals are to win Big Ten and National titles.
    My, I would argue our, expectations are the same as his - to win Big Ten and National titles.  If the staff builds a team that is not capable of doing this after the 3rd year and we have no recruits lined up for next year then it is completely fair to conclude that Mike Woodson is not capable of meeting his goals.  The fans are not responsible for building the team (outside of our money into the NIL and corporate sponsorships) but we are reasonable to expect the results promised by the coach.

    I thought we might be around 15-40th best team if everything clicked.
    But I'm not on the staff/administration that is tasked with building a team that fulfills its promises to the fanbase.  I knew our guards weren't good enough better than apparently anyone on the staff. 
    The goal when you have top 10 resources is to be around a top 10 team.  Everyone realizes that doesn't always happen.  But top 10 resources should NEVER have the 90th best team.  And probably should never miss the tournament if they had the right coach.

    Which begs the question: what's the friggin' point of signing NLIs? You don't have to sign one as it is and if you can just choose to not honor it, who is this for? This whole situation is a joke from all sides.

    After spending twenty minutes skimming through the posts on this thread from today, I realize I have wasted too much time reading an ongoing argument about whose opinions are more accurate than the opinions of others. Woodson is not being fired and we already missed on Dalton Knecht, so why did I even bother?  I'll spend my time watching TJD slam on Wemby instead.
