    That's correct. Hunter has been labeled as a great recruiter but he hasn't really landed many in the time he's been at IU so I'm not buying that. I think it was a mistake to keep him.

    In progress. Woodson is on it.

    Why not? Everyone else seems to be getting technicals.

    It'll be more of the same as this year. 2/3 of the way through the season we'll be hearing the "it's a new team" excuse. I am starting to think that Woodson got mixed up initially when he said 4-out 1-in on offense and actually meant 4-in 1-out.

    That says top 80. The thing is, Woodson doesn't seem to care unless they're top 30. So he goes for highly ranked guys and doesn't have a backup when he misses. Also, most of those were spring decommitments from other schools (quick recruitment) so his numbers for a normal recruitment are even worse.

    Dude, he makes around $500k/year. If he quits, do you think he's getting another job paying that amount? I doubt anyone wants him as their AD.

    Yeah, I was born in '77 so didn't start school until the '80s. Living in AZ, I got sent home from work early once because of expected rain.

    More like a 33% raise. It also extended his 100% buyout by a year. Additionally, Woodson received additional buyout protections. Under the terms of his original deal, Woodson would have been owed 100% of remaining guaranteed compensation before April 1, 2025, and 50% thereafter. Last year’s renegotiation pushed the 100% promise to April 1, 2026, than 50% for the remaining year of the deal. For reference, on April 1 of this year, his buyout would stand at roughly $12.6 million. https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2024/02/20/indiana-basketball-mike-woodson-says-not-walking-away-from-job-buyout-details-contract-iu-hoosiers/72671079007/

    Appropriate since they're bad for your health just like watching this IU basketball team is.

    It's not the quantity of things forgotten that is important, it's the quality..

    I grew up in Monroe County and only got snow days when there was a decent amount of snow on the ground or when we. Not anywhere near what you describe from NH, but certainly more than a dusting. I wonder if there was significantly more snow expected that day. I spent a winter in Augustus, GA. The whole place shut down when there was very little snow. You could still see most of the ground and roads underneath. Wind would clear off the roads. Basically, what I would describe as a slight dusting. It was crazy, I couldn't believe that was enough to shut everything down.

    Hey! Those temperatures are negative, not positive! Only positives allowed. I'm positive that is cold. Fun fact: 40 below zero (did it without the negative lol) is the point at which Celsius and Fahrenheit are the same.

    It's a new team so in another 25 games I'm sure he'll have them clicking. It's a big hump to get over. Just gotta keep working. (on what? Never specified)

    What's he making up? You replied to yourself like it was someone else a short time after the first post.

    That probably applies to the under-50 crowed. I'm 46 but was too young to remember him as a player. Someone 4 years older than me might remember him but it would likely be in a vague sense.

    I was looking at his numbers, in particular fouls. Starting at the game at Illinois, he has gotten 4 or 5 fouls in every game except against Iowa where he played only 3 minutes. In the other 5 games in that time, he's fouled out in 4 of them. His assist numbers in that time are also a big drop off from what he was for most of the season up until that point. His scoring and rebounding have also been inconsistent in that time frame, scoring especially. So right now, all you really know you're going to get from him are lots of fouls and not very many passes to players ready to catch and shoot.
  21. Worrying about things like what players or recruits think is what got us Davis. Just have to find the best coach and either the players stay or he finds others who fit.

    (2026) - Anthony Thompson

    IU offered both an Anthony Thompson and an Alex Smith today? Next up: Vaughn Dunbar? Maybe a shift to another position. Antwaan Randle El? Trent Green?

    Woodson IS his own BB hire.

    Again he says the problem is the players and not the scheme. They made 50.9% of their fga while holding the other team to 35.4%. Still lost. They fouled too much. Missed too many FT. Turned it over too much. Didn't generate many turnovers. Lots of problems with the team and since they've been ongoing, it's starting look like a scheme problem.
  25. I'm completely over this team/season/coaching staff so anything I say that could be seen as defending them or being positive should be viewed as very sarcastic.
