go iu bb

Has any coach actually said that or is it purely speculation on your part? I'm guessing it's the latter.

The coaches that would be scared off by the firing of coaches who don't win at IU are the coaches who don't believe they can win at IU. I'm not sure we'd want them anyways.

I remember that game. It was in Penn State's old "arena" (being generous calling it that) that was teeny tiny. I was very surprised when IU struggled so much to beat them that game because PSU wasn't very good.

It's a new team

I can guarantee that he won't go 0-14 next year. 0-12 maybe but definitely not 0-14.

I personally want TBD

Jeez, that's rough. At least he should have his doctorate by the time he's done.

What I like about this coaching staff is their decisiveness when it comes to recruiting. It really gives the impression they know exactly what they're looking for.

He has eligibility left? It's too late in the year to get a medical redshirt for this season unless this happened awhile ago and they're just now announcing it.

I would expect very little from Newton next year. It'll be so much time since he last played regularly plus the fact that it's a knee injury that kept getting reinjured. Not a good combination for making an immediate impact when playing again, possibly bad enough that he could never get to the level of an impact player.

I think @Class of '66 Old Fart said he'd ban anyone who mentions him. There's this other guy, though, Stad Brevens, who would probably be a great hire.

Post it.

With Flory coming in, Kansas still doesn't make any sense. If it's not IU (I'm guessing that is looking more and more unlikely) or Maryland then it'll be Houston.

Some posts are so amazingly bad that I just can't help but to reply to it. This is one of them. So you're saying he can't use the "I was drunk" excuse like it's somehow better? It's actually worse. That says he can't control himself even when sober.

Yeah, all the Shrews love doesn't make sense to me. His resume is pretty unimpressive.

He hasn't lost one yet, either!

He's high on my wish list. Offer lots of money and play to his ego that he can turn IU around.

I don't reply to him anymore. At this point it seems more like he's trolling than actually seriously pushing Facial Hair because there's 0% chance he gets hired.

I hope you're right.

Ideally, Woodson wouldn't need to be fired because he'd decide to retire. I don't see that happening though. His ego is too big and he's too stubborn.

I'm feeling really apathetic about the basketball program. They'll continue to play poorly because, unlike last season, there is no leadership. So they'll continue to lose to any team with a pulse and miss the tournament. We'll continue to hear the same excuses from Woodson. Woodson will be back next year since he won't step down and definitely won't get fired. I expect that will be more of the same. It's been more bad than good since the mid '90s that I'm starting to just not care. I've already gotten to the point that I don't bother watching most of the games. I'll track the score then watch some of them. I wonder how long it'll be before I don't even bother doing that or reading and posting on message boards.

"It's a new team. Need to get to work." -Woodson, probably

Isn't Roberts at NC State now? I know he was hired there in '23. I thought they hired him away from Cincy.

IIRC with Howland, there was also some internal drama.
