Siap. Only the second time we’ve beaten UM in 28 years. Of course it’s a good W!

Not a Woodson fan but I don't worry speculatively about what might happen with a new coach somewhere else. Seen enough similar worries about other coach hires and stated misses here, who then flamed out. If Woodson falls on his face, there will be others, and we're at least moving in the right direction after the utter disaster that was CAM. I think Woodson will do well enough so the program is attractive to others in the wings. It wasn't exactly attractive after CAM.

^^ What's both comical and unfortunate to me is the unnecessary drama and emotion. That's the recurring, and frankly silly issue. Perspective - Similar stuff happened at my office (law firm) this week: - a first-year associate (so 25 or so) was being somewhat thrown under the bus by the litigation partner she works for, and overheard him (standing outside his office) basically bad-mouthing her to another partner, including, well, lying or slanting what she had and had not done. - She confronted him and in front of the other partner, basically calling him out. Good idea? Uh, no. Was she in the right? Uh, yes. - Partner blows up and yells at her (out of character), slams his door. - Associate goes back to her office and is really upset. She's now concerned that her job may be in jeopardy. - Emotion and drama... - I'm on my firm's Exec Committee so she comes to me and another of my partners to tell her side and try to figure out what to do. - Now i get to have a meeting with my partners about this when I'm trying to handle some pressing cases... - Resolution? I talk to both, smooth things over -- sh*t happens, you know -- and take her on as her managing partner. Everyone's now fine. What I'd say to Woodson? -- Grow a pair. Young 20-somethings are going to do something you don't like. Own it, deal with it. What I'd say to Adam? -- Grow up. Gotta work with the boss you have. You're part of a team. This was unnecessary drama.

I’m wondering what the players think of this. Bad look.

An old fart, having a brain fart…

Yeah, continues to show Woodson's insistence on a 2-big lineup, some experimentation (poorly considered, imo) but very little w/o Ballo-Malik. The Rice-Goode-Malik-Bako-Carlyle lineup did get 8 points in 7 poss but Rice was having an off night particularly in the first half (TO's) which undercut it and Goode still isn't hitting shots (have to think that will change, he can shoot).

Bako up to 31 and 4-5 from 3, 8 boards, a steal and a block (those are listed stats but pretty sure he had 2 blocks), best game as a Hoosier

Several betting sites were at 27.5

Maybe a bit overlooked, Gallo coming back so far with 5 assists to 2 TO’s, perfect from the floor including a 3, and a steal

Bad stat of the night 10 assists to 13 TO’s

Ok up 14, this is where the team should put the hammer down and build on the lead

Btw that was Gallo’s 4th assist and he’s leading the team. Rice not in great form tn though better in second

Bako is killing it

Neither does Woodson

Correct

Yeah I think we’ll see our guys score around 50 points in the second— we’ll see

Yup. 4 TO’s to 2 assists- not playing like he has been coming into this game. Gotta get settled for the 2nd. And the team goes as he goes

I think we’ll see the team come out gunning in the second, but yeah Woodson needs to get out of the way

I think this is just Woodson giving some guys run in a game we’ll win easily. We should run up the score — and I’ll say I think we will, just no fun to watch experimentation

Woodson actually suggested that on his own!

Rumor has it he took lessons from Crean

Well, we’re up to 25% from 3 :)

Yeah 6-7 and rebounding and a block

Yeah Bako has it going early
