Saving them for Saturday

No worries

Prayers for Coach Woodson

Snow days as a kid and snow days as an adult bring the same joy. There's too much hustle and grind in daily life, very nice to have an unplanned day of nothing. Same thing tomorrow + IUBB? Yes, please.

Does selection committee factor in injuries during games or overall body of work regardless of personnel? Edit: Sorry for asking you so many Q's today. Trying to learn and you seem knowledgable and grounded

How about Arkansas being ranked!!

@ Minny Ohio St (Thank God this is at home) Michigan x2 (Not impressed, bad coach, hurt team) @ NW (Revenge) Illinois (Good luck Underwood and Dainja) Iowa (Should've been a blow out the first time) 7-5 out of our remaining 12. Funny thing about my list is as I went back through there is no doubt that Coach Woodson is heads and shoulders above all of these coaches. Underwood, Juwan, Holtman are very good for IU basketball. NW/Minny just don't have the dawgs to compete. I'm not overly impressed w/ Iowa and Fran to me is the same as if Crean were still at IU. I am not in the camp that believes we beat Purdue, but the game has yet to have been played and I pay to watch these games so what do I know :) Puts us at 20-11 pre BTT. Feel comfortable with that, anything else to me is bonus Hate to say that Minny is a big game but for seeding it is so important not to lose to the cellar dweller of the B1G. Would hate to get a 1st game match up in BTT w/ Penn state - really impressed w/ the coach, experience, and talent on that team.

In your opinion, what's the seed ceiling and floor for IU? Personally I think a 4 seed is ceiling unless they win the BTT and obviously the floor is lose out and miss tourney - but that won't happen so I will say the floor is last four in. Interested to hear your opinion and others

I suppose this isn't the correct thread to be asking this, but out of general curiosity: What is Hull's specific role and job duty? Yesterday I saw him with what looked like a computer screen in front of him on the sideline. Also, if anyone who knows more than me can lead to actually know the job during games of other staff that aren't coaches. Specifically I'd like to know about Hill, Hulls, and any other support staff during games.

X is the only player in the country that can get a technical while in street clothes. He’s the best PG and **** talker in CBB

Bump

Through all of this I sought for a positive and here it is… IU hasn’t missed the tournament in my son’s life & Woodson has a positive record in his lifetime. He’s 1, go Hoosiers!!

Aside from $, what does IU have to offer other places don’t? Not trying to be a punk, seriously what does IU Bloomington offer in 2023?

What’s the status on X? Any time table laid out for his return?

It’s hard to be elite without a single proven elite player/coach

Will be interesting to see how our lineups vary through the B1G season. 10-3 is a good start the year. This year I’m asking Santa for a speedy recovery for X. Let’s hold on at home and keep building - if X can comeback this year we may be set for some magic in March. There will be ups and downs but at Coach Woodson’s 1.5 year mark the talent level on the bench is extremely improved and we have an identity. A lot will hinge on the transfer portal following this year - IU will have to land a few pieces. Future is bright for the Hoosiers

That’s why I like Geronimo in at the 4. Double team leaves our best athlete unattended for Rebounding. Defensively other than Race/TJD probably the best post defender. I don’t like the argument against height, see Kansas

Bates Hood Kopp Geronimo TJD/Race Hope to see this periodically going forward

I don’t understand how the D has went from being great last year and early this year to atrocious this fast. I killed the IU under or team under last year with no problem. This year has been difficult. Same pieces, worse team?

The formula: deflections + 3’s in transition = ?

IU needs Xavier Johnson like babies need milk

He also is very flat footed on defense
