Nice win. I didn't expect it so it was a nice surprise. I'm glad Izzo didn't get the satisfaction of passing Knight by beating IU.

I wonder if Woodson didn't recruit him hard because he saw he wasn't good or if it was his normal aversion to recruiting. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt in this one because he seemed to put even less effort than others.

That's why you two get paid the big bucks.

2 bigs lineup here we come! I'm excited for that and Izzo won't expect it.

He's spinning it like IU is the problem itself rather than the problem is that IU has hired bad coaches. He also left out that coaches would have a real chance here given the resources available now in this changing NCAA landscape.

Tool

Wasn't that a player instead of Scheyer? Filipowski, I think? I think he tried to trip and shove a fan and ended up hurt himself.

Someone already posted these numbers but now is a good chance to do so again: At a P4 schools, he's won 67.5% (179-86) overall but only 53.7% (73-63) in conference in 7 whole seasons and 2 partial seasons. Of his complete seasons: Only 1 time did he finish with less than 7 losses in conference. Only once did he finish with single digit losses. It's just not as impressive of a resume as some make it seem. They look at only those 2 really good seasons at TT which he hasn't come close to replicating.

The real reason Woodson is upset he's losing his job is that he'll now have to pay for the trips to different golf courses around the country as well as the green fees instead of doing it on IU's dime.

I've seen that Mick Cronin has a large buyout but not the numbers in discussions here though I may have missed it. His buyout is $16M until April 1. At that time, it drops again (don't know how much). This is the same if he leaves or gets fired. I don't see IU spending that kind of money for Cronin.

I thought it was open game on you and @Class of '66 Old Fart but off-limits for everyone else.

He very well could do well. I was talking about the fan reaction according to the poll above. He has the 2nd highest neutral vote count (1 less than the leader Gates) and his neutral percentage is higher than both yes and no. I personally voted neutral.

I joined the old peegs site in the mid 90s, with a user name close to or the same as my current one here. At some point I forgot my password and created another account under user name minneman. I stayed on the rivals site and didn't follow peegs when they left. This was until a few years ago. I didn't really post on there much. After that, I went to HSN under username go_iu_bb and was on there for a while. I still go there occasionally. When HSN kept crashing during the last coaching search, I ended up here.

At this time: The most acceptable: Brad Stevens The most unwanted: Micah Shrewsberry (sorry Stuhoo) The most meh: Dennis Gates (an argument could be made for Ben McCollum for this "honor")

That is up to the school on how to split up the money but they must take Title IX into account. It's also unclear at this time what percentage needs to go to women's sports. It will be affected by Title IX (per the courts) but it isn't clear how: 50/50, something else based on revenue generated, or some other method? The courts didn't clarify what they meant. Most of the men's money will probably go to football with the majority of the rest going to basketball. How much of the $20.5M cap (I assume IU will hit that cap) is unknown at this time. The school probably doesn't even know yet since there will likely be clarification between now and when they have to start paying it out. They likely have several plans based on possible outcomes but nothing is public.

Even if Dolson and Whitten somehow didn't have a problem with him, he wouldn't be hired because of how it'd fracture the fan base. Just look at this site as an example of that. I see no way he gets hired, thankfully.

In addition to it meaning that IU has a good basketball team again, I want the next coach to be successful so I don't have to see a bunch of posts pining for Beard to be coach.

I hope we don't hire McCollum because I call him McGollum in my head and think he kind of looks like Gollum. I don't know if I can deal with that with him as the head coach. It's not fair, i know, but it is what it is. But I also don't like the sound of his system. Sounds slow and boring.

Alcohol. It's been said he has a problem with alcohol. I know there's at least 1 video out there of him smashed and just rambling. Also, he better hope that anyone vetting him doesn't talk to his ex-girlfriends and their family and friends. The chances the first time he ever hit a women he ended up biting and strangling her, hurting her enough that he got felony charges are slim to none.

I shouldn't have watched it. I don't think it'll be him but now I've watched it and I'm going to be sooooo disappointed when it isn't.

A few steps. Some can maybe be skipped but this seems to work consistently. 1) change 'https://x' to 'twitter' in the url and hit enter to reload the page. 2) it'll probably reload as 'x.com' again. If so, change the 'x' to 'twitter' but don't hit enter, instead copy and paste that link I've tried skipping the first step but it never seemed to work.

Here ya go. Edit: See you got it. Never mind.

We've already seen that he has no problem saying he won't answer a question when he doesn't want to be asked about something. Except then it's him avoiding questions about his "retirement" which was supposedly his idea.

This after Purdue win this season put them into the top 10 all time wins and knocked IU out. Rough year for IU fans.

Well, then. I guess I'm not surprised since it's the Big Ten. Maybe a little surprised they didn't call a foul on JG for hitting the guy's elbow with his face, I guess.
