    Bako is still a "college" 4. He really should be a wing imo particularly for his shooting but he's more in the mold of a Watford - a stretch 4 - agree on adding 2 point / combo guards (hopefully one as a very solid on-ball / playmaking guard as that's needed immediately - how much Cupps will grow by next year remains to be seen. Bako and Malik up front, Trey paired with at least one strong on-ball guard and a legit shooting guard is a strong lineup - if our dead man walking coach finally encourages outside shooting. We're losing an outstanding, rangy forward who can and did step outside, but NOT bringing in yet another post player / big would maybe get us playing the way we should be, use the damn perimeter, play quicker, player smaller.

    You guys saying IU won’t announce that it’s moving on from Woodson unless it happens Monday (unlikely) are forgetting something— April Fools day is just around the corner!

    Haha “really everything makes that ragemonster feel infuriated, but I digress” — such a funny and true line

    I didnt know Gottlieb was even still around. Absolutely couldn’t stand him when he was at espn, always took stupid jabs at IU. But here, he’s not wrong

    I honestly feel worse about the program under Woodson than I did under Miller. Miller’s pac line D was just bad. But then at least I could define it and see growth. And CAM was trying, he recruited, he was actively involved within the game. Woodson is none of those, completely out of the loop in recruiting, doesn’t show early or stay invested in key (or what should be key) recruiting targets, is uninvested in recruiting, is uninvested in actual game management, is grossly stubborn is forcing a play thru the post and deemphasizing if not discouraging outside shooting. Year 3 was a disaster. I said going in the U would not fire him after 3 years 2 of which were tournament years. But I want to be wrong, bc the writing on the wall is clear — the bball program is being damaged, stop the bleeding already

    Beautiful day today here in Chicago, sunny, mid-50s, here for my oldest’s last weekend after finishing the extended college experience of Northwestern (my wallet hurts almost as much as Bako after the game). Time to take his next step forward in life, on a beautiful sunny day

    Ok let’s consider the reasons IU should keep Woodson. The reasons why not making the decision to move on, and give Woodson another year to try to right the ship is better for the program. I got nothing

    Here’s to hoping Stu - it’s really best for everyone at this point

    And hey just look at our season and failure to use the perimeter- what a great selling point

    Fire Coach Woodson

    - He isn’t even trying in recruiting, 0 recruits says only part of it - Our only recruit decommitted the day after it leaked Woodson would be back - Complete refusal to change that style of play despite that we’re losing badly and repeatedly because of it - arrogance, chirping at the IU audience making everything about himself at the end of a season that we’re not even on the bubble

    Ejected, that should really be it for Woodson, great IU player, but he needs to find the composure to hand in the keys
