go iu bb

Yes, what IU needs after the last 2 hires is a known not a gamble.

You should've stopped at the line. You apologize for being a dick then start acting like a dick again immediately by throwing out insults in the same post. Apology fail. This isn't the only IU message board. Maybe you'd be happier on one of the other ones since I don't think this one is for you.

I'm coming around on him, he's having a really good year. UM has improved greatly under him compared to last season so he's proving it after his jump to P4. On kenpom, has both the offense and defense in the top 25. I would like to see his team take better care of the ball. There is still some risk since he doesn't have a long track record of sustaining success at the B1G level but I think that is a risk worth taking. Some think that he won't leave UM after a year but I think he would. His buyout for leaving is pretty low at $5M, soon going to $4M. That is something that he or his agent had to fight to get. That shows that he might be open to leaving for IU. However, some reports last year said that he didn't want the fishbowl of UL. If that was too much for him, would he want to go to IU which is just as bad?

So talk about those guys. Start with what you like or don't like about them and why you think they'd be successful, which you will prefer or think will actually be the coach, etc. People will respond. We have talked about coaches other than Stevens. You're allowed to start the conversation.

Women add a distance recruit. Looks like a development/depth recruit at this time. Comes from a swimming family. https://swimswam.com/zoe-de-fabrique-daughter-of-french-olympian-and-ncaa-champion-headed-to-indiana-for-2026/

Yeah, I read the whole thing after I posted and edited the post to remove that line but you were already replying, I guess. I didn't see them define "an extended period of time" though. Definitely won't get it if it's only a few days even though you're paying for those channels for those days. I do expect that it'll only be a few days, maybe a week. We've seen this before.

I no longer subscribe to YouTube TV but I bet you'll get those back soon after the two companies finish their pissing contest, errr..negotiations and sign a new agreement. Sucks to lose them even for a little while, though.

Oh, no, not all the way. Barely scratched the surface but I'll spare everyone from more.

Looks like he and CJ West are the only 2 from IU.

Hex is short for hexadecimal. It's a numbering system often used in electronics and computer science/programming since it's base 16 (2 to 4th power) and can be used to represent binary numbers in a format which is much easier to read and write. It has 0-9, same as the base 10 number system you're used to, but also uses letters A-F for 10-15. So 0x1c (hex) = 1(16^1) + 12(16^0) = 28 (decimal) = 0001 1100 (binary) for example. There's also an octal numbering system (base 8, 0-7) but it's garbage, imo. Long live hex! And that is your nerd lesson of the day.

I would also add a few other possible (probably?) things that affect the information in addition to what you said above (which I agree with): - It looks like a lot of the info comes the IU side and not the target's side. So the way a target (in this case Stevens but this applies to recruits as well) is leaning is really just a reflection of how confident the IU side feels instead of what the target is actually thinking. - The information seems to pass through several people before showing up on this board. Distortion is to be expected. That's not to say intentional, but it does happen when passing info from person to person. Anyone remember the telephone game we played as kids? I love the info we get on this site but at the same time take it with a grain of salt. Not because I think they're lying or making it up, but because I can see how things can change or the how it might be inaccurate.

Yeah, right,. Now you're just making stuff up. Next you'll be telling us that your name isn't actually RaceToTheTop.

So you did. That's what I get for distracted reading and posting while distracted.

Unless you were personally told by Stevens or someone who knows, it's not a fact, it's your opinion. I think you're correct that he's likely in Boston to see his son but the fact is that it isn't a fact, it's an opinion. Let's not confuse opinion and fact. If you see Stevens in the stands during the game or can otherwise confirm that he is there, THEN it becomes a fact.

That's the Woodson Effect.

At some point you're just going to have to come to terms with the fact that Woodson will not be the coach after this year. I know denial can take time to work through. We're to help you, so I'll say that this scenario has a 0% chance of happening. Only about a month remaining before reality hits. I hope you'll be ok when that happens.

I hope it's the 8/85M if this is accurate. That's ~$1.5M/year more than the other deal plus not as long of a commitment if it somehow didn't work out. So a better deal for both sides, imo.

Indeed. Schools want the buyout for a coach leaving to be as high as possible while coaches want just the opposite. It's obvious that May/his agent worked to get it low.

It's not #2 since his buyout for getting fired is 70% of his remaining contract which comes out to something like $10.5-11M. There are 2 different buyouts.

I thought the sarcasm was obvious. I guess not. We weren't really recruiting anyone even when Woodson didn't know he was getting canned.

I'm absolutely shocked.

We all thank you for your dedication to staying in this thread.

Good call. I think "toady" is what was meant.

Seems legit. You should get right on that, make sure to click the link from in the email instead of going to the site.

The poster who does the most posting the same things over and over again mostly posts in this thread. Without it, he wouldn't stop posting the same things over and over again, he'd just do it in all the other threads. I know what to expect when I open this thread, and it isn't that there will be something new. Since this thread is mainly for venting and Woodson is the same as he ever was doing the same things, that is to be expected. I don't understand your need to tell people how to post and what they should or shouldn't post about. You've said many of the same types of things since your time on HSN, so it's not as though you're not repetitive as well except your repetition is more in concept rather than exact words.
