SIAP. 
TJD with a message for the “trolls”

Still love you TJD

And regardless of what the win/loss record and tournament committee said.  Give me a break.

Didn’t have to take the job?  That’s a new one for the Woody narrative.  Good grief.

Quick research on DeVries: 

1) Won 20 games six straight years in a row at Drake. Before him, only five 20 win seasons...

2) In year one at Drake, they had their best season in a decade. In year one at WVU they went from basically a last place team to a respectable team that should have been in the tournament. Had his son been healthy, they very well could have been a top 25 team. 

He took over a mess at WVU. I'd love to see what he could do at IU. Not that he would be an A+ grand slam hire, but it would be a good hire.

You'll have to decipher no less than 23 GIF to get that answer...

Someone give me a recap of the day in this war zone. Did I hear right that we’ve got our guy but no one knows who it is?

[IU5355 803]

Where is the sudden smoke for Devries coming from?

Discord says Rabby. Who obviously has had a tough day.

If it’s Brad Stevens why wasn’t it announced today? 
It’s definitely somebody still coaching

Woodson wasn't announced until March 28. He obviously wasn't a college coach, just a bench coach with the Knicks.

If we have 11 more days of this I'm gonna have to start putting my thumb on ice every night.

Alive and well per RTZ, AP (an assumption based on the Undertaker GIF he dropped tonight), and my undying optimism.

Apparently, 4 people know. According to what I saw on X from an account I’m not familiar with who got it from an unimpeachable source.

With literally none of the talent level that Woodson had...

[FrenchConnection 355]

I'm just gonna put this here for the people who spent the day actually "working."

Nobody here or anywhere actually knows anything! It's all conjecture and we're just talking in circles.

I’ve also said McDermott, McCollum, DeVries, Collins, McCasland, Willams would all kill it and DeVries just happens to be next up.  I’m just a mailman that wants a college basketball coach leading the program and all of these choices can do that 

I am high on Devries, plus we get his NBA-ready son who puts up 20+ per night and can hit the 3's!

Yes, his NBA-Ready son got injured in game #8 and was their leading scorer!  He got WVA to 19 wins in the Big 12 without his leading scorer.  At Drake he won over 21 games every hear in those 6 years.!!

Got a chance to watch the video interivew with Dakich and McCullom interview.  Good stuff.  Dakich said at one point that McCullom reminded him of Brad Stevens.

What is this nonsense? Making woody some martyr even though he sucked. I guess i am a troll thankful I’ll never have to watch him coach again. You were a hell of player TJD and woody owes you all the money he’s gotten the last 4 years

TJD's game improved in his time when Woodson was there.  Just because a guy is a poor coach doesn't mean he didn't make a connection with a particular player.

It's not gonna be Devries.

[Dalton26 17,201]

I swear if we end up with McCollum or DeVries I’ll be through the roof happy.
