If you grew up in a small city and planned on building your career there, wouldn’t it be career suicide to bash the guy who is essentially your boss? Who here would do that? And for all the discussion about Leal making more money… he gave a lot to help his sister. He didn’t selfishly profit for his own good. Somewhere today I thought I read here that the McNeely family found the IU fan base toxic… and didn’t want Liam in that environment. Either that was fake news or maybe they have a point.

And, Dug McDaniel is in the portal as well.

So, maybe it’s time to shut down this thread until early next year

Read what he was referring to and it might make sense to you

Hornsby’s comments. Why do you care? Nothing directed towards you

So, which is it for you? You constantly disparage “ old timers” for living in the past about a game that in your opinion has passed them by. Yet you try to make a point using something from over 20 years ago. I am ready for a coaching change, just like the majority on here. But the reaches some of you guys make to try and validate your position are really weak

I thought I heard that too.. that whoever won that 8/9 game would have a great chance v UCONN

Love that the lead in was FDU beating Purdue

Because of the upsets in the conference tournament they got the short end of the stick

Dusty will be available by the end of the first weekend. Izzo will lose in the first round. I don’t think Purdue gets to the Final Four. McNeese is the sleeper

Well, Dusty will be available after the second round at least

I am an avid curler. Lot’s of fun, great workout, and you can drink while you play.

More than not hindering. He has to keep them in place. I get it. You lump Woodson and Dolsen together . I will let things play out with Cig and see what Dolsen does with Woodson before passing judgment.

There is more to the IU Athletic Department than just basketball. Coach Cig is thought to be a strong hire. He has done enough to keep Moren from looking for greener pastures with all the success she’s had. The baseball program has been ranked. Many of the Olympic sports programs have done extremely well. I agree, he’s going to have to nail the next basketball hire, but when looked at in totality, he’s got IU athletics performing well.

Guess you haven’t kept up completely but no biggie. Understand now how this board operates

Nothing wrong with criticizing the game. I take exception when the fire conversation leaks into every other thread.

Fouls aren’t a huge problem

Have read multiple times when someone has posted something positive in the fire thread that they needed to go to the positive thread. I haven’t said anything on the fire thread for a bit. Guess expecting the standards to be the same across the board doesn’t really matter. The negative guys rule

There’s a fire Woodson thread . This is the game thread

There’s a fire Woodson thread . This is the game thread

That’s exactly what I said.. DWS

So, Tominaga is allowed to put his shoulder down and knock Cupps off balance and then step back for an open shot

Playing hard. X can’t get 2nd foul

They’ve had several bald players that looked like they were in their 30’s

Push back on this a bit. NIL is not because of the fans. NIL is because a basketball player from UCLA sued the NCAA and courts found his complaint valid, thus creating NIL. NIL is funded by folks with deep pockets who expect something in return for their investment....appearances, endorsement of product, etc. Yes, players have now gone to promoting themselves via selling gear, etc. They also promote and probably receive fees from social media. And its' the same axiom as anything else, if you don't want to support someone, don't buy what they're selling.
