They really are. The over the back that was still called a jump ball, etc. blatant

So soooo much better than watching the men under Woodson

Exactly. Woodson’s complete lack of perimeter scheming is killing the best players we have and the overall team. So discouraging to watch. Can’t wait until Woodson’s gone, just a terrible coach

Rice is carrying us. Ballo is a turnover no show. He has to get it going. No effort by Woodson/staff to spread the floor, none. Goode’s shot came on a last second decision by Ballo to hand it back. Goode should be a key part of the game plan. Just amazing

Absolutely no actions run for outside shooting. Pathetic

Finally a look for Goode

Franimal meltdown coming!

Now it’s a game

That’s there all night. Thank you Ballo for finishing it

Maybe Ballo drank an energy drink while on the bench…

Texas playing Tennessee to a tight game down to the wire. While we look like a bad HS team. God Woodson you’re the worst cosch IU has ever had

Hey Woodson, look what a perimeter game looks like

Announcers talking like iowa is doing this. No, this is self inflicted

Maybe they’ll wake up after this break this is God awful. Ballo getting owned by a skinny guy, Trey making dumb mistakes. Enough, wake up and play

That was just embarrassing

What the heck is wrong with Ballo

Yeah we’re winning!!

I know an RMK statement about where the sun shines…

This strikes me as a really hard game to predict. Iowa is lights out from the arc, one of the best 3-point shooting teams and highest scoring teams in the country, they’re coming off a strong win after clawing back on the shoulders of their offense and it’s a home game, where they usually beat us, and at 2-2 in the B1G they need this game. To our surprising credit we rank 49th in 3-point D (we’re a lot better now than we were in perimeter D), we’re very strong on the glass (where Iowa sucks), with Malik out the offense is more balanced with Goode now hitting with better spacing and movement and Ballo dominating inside and the attention D’s have to give to Bako and Rice, and we’re running with confidence after winning at PSU. I mean the line’s been between 4.5-6.5 because Iowa sucks at D and rebounding and we’re playing better, we’ve actually looked more like a bball team with Malik out. I like Malik and he’s one of our best players but we’re badly crowded and one dimensional with Woodson’s 2-big units. Wr could get blown out like at Nebraska, who Iowa beat, but we could also win this game. I’ll probably just flip a coin lol

Our perimeter D has been better. It used to be terrible, I think part of the thinking is tied to that.

Very good news

So our next 4 are @Iowa, vs. ranked Illinois, @OSU and @NW. That's a tough stretch. But doesn't seem like any can be called "must wins" (though we really need at least 1, the home game, to have any belief the team will ultimately make it) given the number of Q1 games remaining after that stretch. Just the next 4 has MD, @PU, @Wisc, and vs. ranked (currently) UM. And that just continues in the next 4, against 3 currently ranked teams. Pretty crazy how stacked the B1G is this season.

Yes just linked the site. Man I hope we get confirmation he's not seeking another term

And I hope you're right. Is it confirmed that this is Buckner's last year on the BOT? Side note, my mother, former asst to a few IU presidents, attended multiple BOT meetings over the years, knew all of former T's personally, and is amazed at the current BOT and how things are right now.... That's about all I can say. https://trustees.iu.edu/the-trustees/current-trustees/index.html Edit - I see Buckner's current term is listed 2022-25
