I've created a delusional false reality in my head where there is an ongoing crappy off broadway production of Succession going on behind the scenes in Bloomington. It's making me way happier than thinking about the hard truths of next year. And, tomorrow is Friday.

It is a pretty linear train of thought to say, this Liam news does not bode well for portal season.

Doing it the day after a "source" says Woody will be back next year is, certainly, .... Coincidental timing? A choice? Beauty is in the eye of the interpreter. Good luck at Kansas or Texas Liam.

Well we signed him so he has to play for us next year right? Wait this isn't NBA free agency?

Dude, it's Thursday. That story arc is so Monday. :)

I definitely believe he only told them an hour before it broke, especially if they haven't spoken to him since he signed as his mother apparently alleged.

Playing in front of fans at Assembly Hall is currently one of the few redeeming qualities our program has to offer.

It's really simple. All he has to do is confirm the Indy Star story.

To say the internal politics are spilling over in a very messy way right now, appears to be an understatement. It gets louder with every hour that passes without Dolson putting his name on a statement or getting in front of cameras.

Is Mike Woodson a lazy recruiter?

Hey... if you visit Bloomington, he may let you facetime Melo. That's worth a free trip, I guess.

"Despite a disappointing 2023-24 season, Indiana basketball coach Mike Woodson will return next season, an IU athletic department source told IndyStar." The bolded part is curious to me.

Pretty sure we agree but can you explain the bolded part, I thought Dolson hasn't said anything publicly, so basically doing that.

FWIW Trilly said IU was informed about an hour before it went public.

It's not hyperbole at this point to say Woodson's recruiting approach has failed (putting it mildly). It's not hyperbole to say Woodson very apparently does not have what it takes to recruit anyone other than an instant impact player. Essentially, he is shopping for pro's and proven commodities at P5 level. No player development. No roster continuity. It's not hyperbole to say no other IUBB coach would be given such a long leash. I have yet to hear a compelling reason for him to return for a 4th season. New signature by the way

I'm assuming Malik will hit the portal shortly after the season ends at this rate.

It really is. If you watch the series through a second time, you can pick up on a lot of cool subtleties. Other great shows like it: The Wire, Boardwalk Empire, Gomorrah (if you don't mind subtitles or bad dubbing...) if you don't mind subtitles the original Italian is just awesome.

He was strong, but... his hands... they were too small...

That's because my QAnon style manifesto is being suppressed by Buckner and his evil regime.

Kathy? Cathy? Adrian?

If there is anywhere I can place a long odds bet on Woody announcing his retirement at the MSU game, I would put $10 on it right now just for craps and cackles.

The fan narrative is in no way shape or form believable. The timing of yesterday's announcement sure does make you wonder. Dolson and Quinn really do like each other though... Scott wants to be happier with the program but you know... Quinn is... Quinn. And Woody is... Woody. So...

I cannot encourage you strongly enough to use the ignore user feature on this here website. Go to account, scroll down and you will see the ability to ignore users.

Walsh or Howard (forget which one was his primary recruiter) maybe leaving?
