At least Woody didn’t leak more Mark Turgeon rumors, so you’re alright in my book. 

Woodson mumbled something about "that little fella from Kansas"...

He said Woodson would be a fantastic recruiter lol, that's all I needed to read

Ok my history on him only goes back to 2023. I mean he did say he was friends with Woodson so if he missed on that softball, hitting might not be his thing.

Man I was busy earlier and missed the whole religion debate, can we get that fired back up again? That looked like fun

McDermott had his shot at a big conference and blew it….also, if we are dipping to a McDermott, I would go Alford….records don’t lie….

If I were Dolson I’d ask Woody for recommendations and then immediately cross them off the list. 

I doubt Woodson even knows the names of any other coaches.

Is there cliff notes?

Seemed to be pushing for Woodson around March 21 2021. Could see some connection to CMW with how they were pushing for him. So I don’t think they’re trolling us but also don’t fully buy the quality of info they’re getting. The timeline just doesn’t add up for me. If things heated up over the weekend and well after the team left for PNW, I don’t see CMW just being so connected to the search (and hearing BS and SD talks went nowhere which is counter to the other info people have gathered) and then calling buddies back in Btown about it between games.

So he's psychic enough to have predicted a $6M NIL bankroll?

Is there something handy that ranks CBB conferences by year?  I don't doubt that the Big East may have had some teams at the top better than the BT but I would be curious how all the teams compare by conference.

Overall both in the top 4 pretty much every year.  I personally give the edge Big East because they have  produced 4 national titles.  B1G ranks ahead of them by Warren Nolan’s metric.  I’m sure kenpom ranks conferences as well.  My point was the Big East is  major conference in basketball and he has been coaching in that league and doing well.  People act like he coaches in the MEAC

I'll be in a crimson Adidas tee that says Indiana Basketball across the chest.

Prove it by making your seat into a lift chair like Woody’s chair so that we can see your shirt a lot better and you’ll also literally stand out in the crowd!

I’ll say this, if it’s anyone over age 55 it had better be a sure fire winner like a Pearl, Few, or Wright.  

[IUBtown 171]

Someone really said Alford over McDermott?

Last 4 years results at Creighton in the Big East which is arguably a better league then the B1G and coaching a program that averages more attendance then any program in the B1G is enough information for me that he has overcame his Iowa St struggles.   McDermott would be a fantastic hire in my opinion 

Also: IU in 2025 is a very different job than Iowa State in 2006 especially when it comes to attracting talent. McDermott is the kind of guy that NIL would benefit greatly.
