If Dusty beats UCONN, this board might explode.

This game is fixed.

The absolute nightmare here is that there's a world where they find just enough pieces in the portal + bring back Reneau and Mac and squeeze into the tourney as a 9-10 seed. If the BOT didn't want him out after this year, they won't after a tourney appearance. Then you're staring down a 5th year with a 67 yr old coach and a likely full roster turnover at that point.

The environment at these games is nap inducing. Only noise is coming from cheerleaders and squeeky sneakers.

Didn't Mathurin and Nembhard come to a game this year?

Maybe we meet in the middle here lol. I admittedly don't know anything about XB personally. Have read the feedback on him in high school like everyone else. But I'm a sucker for high potential and the one thing Woodson has done well is maximize his bigs output the last 3 years.

I'm all in on this one with the upside. Think you would need to get a 2nd big body as insurance in case this year proves to not be a fluke.

I just think you can get 2 guys that can be good shooters and provide a more well-rounded impact to the game. These two averaged 6 and 3 ppg in the same conference. Expecting them to come in and be anything but a 9th-10th man is setting yourself up for a rough season. Would we even be talking about them if they weren't from Indiana?

I'm tempted to root for Essegian and Goode both starting in the backcourt next year so we can finally put this "Indiana guy" nonsense to rest from multiple fronts.

It's almost like there are varying viewpoints from different individuals and sometimes the same individual at different times.

I'm sure they'll just round up and not be able to tell a difference.

And the odds of those mercenaries fitting together is slim to none because the head coach isn't the one establishing an effective system and identifying the right targets. He's allowing multiple assistants to make their own judgement on what will work and they all have unique perspectives. That leads to a mishmash of talent that will underperform as a unit. Even in the unlikely scenario he scrapes together enough to improve and squeak back into the tourney, you're back here next year asking whether a 8-10 seed after year 4 for a 66 yr old "win now" coach is good enough.

They're the craziest of the bunch so it means nothing. Like an abuser blaming their victim.

What the hell does this guy do with all his time?

This program is officially a laughingstock. Anyone in the administration defending Mike Woodson as coach of this program needs to be ushered out as well. Don't care how it happens.

Absolute trainwreck.

Does Keion Brooks still have his covid year? Averaged over 20 a game and shot nearly 40% from 3 this year.

Well I for one couldn't be more excited about our best case scenario being Utah freaking State next year.

He likes showing everyone that he knows how to use email.

Launch Quinn Buckner into the sun.

He had 5 points and we won by 4. It's basic math guys. If you understood team psychology or played at a high level, you would understand.

Those fire alarms were the best display of defense we've seen in Assembly Hall all year.

What would cause this type of evacuation? Fire, bomb threat? Really strange.

Someone pulled an alarm to save Woodson's job. Admin is desperate.

How would Pearl have any real say over his son being a successor for the job? Genuinely asking as I don't see how the administration could be held to that. Want him on staff with Bruce? Great. The second BP retires though, you start another search. Maybe give him an interview for appearances, but this isn't a monarchy.
