Sweet. So we are making our national perception even worse actually. I know you don't think it matters, but who do you think we are more worried about seeing us? Some 40 year olds watching or recruits just catching glimpses of games? Are they more likely to have ESPN on or FS1/BTN? Things like that are important. Even if you don't want to admit it. And considering Archie's recruiting has hit a massive wall... Someone must have been paying attention somewhere... Going to guess it wasn't the 40 year old basketball junkie. 

So IU has played on espn this year even though you said they have played 0 games on espn?     My guess is a recruit like anyone else has a remote control and can switch between games.   Not sure why you are so fixated on espn being there end all for college basketball viewing.   Nova comes to mind as a team that plays almost all of their games on FS1.  I have to watch them on cbssports network.  My guess would be they have been on espn less then 5 times this year.   I think they will survive

Villanova also has a brand of winning in modern times and in the day and age of hyper social media. Indiana is considered a joke and a fossil. You clearly don't understand kids these days. They may have a remote, but they aren't likely to turn it. They are going to see most things in Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and whatever else. Recruits are more likely to find an NBA game than a college game anyways.

I blame the stupid band that plays the ding dong thing.  That has to be fair game now too they way we are arguing in this thread. But seriously, I hate that and if we were on ESPN playing 0 or 4 games this year and if definitely almost in a tournament that did not happen last year it is embarrassing that we played that thing for all to have watched and heard. 
 

i have it on good authority that a coached named Brad does not like it either

I understand kids just fine.  Honestly recruits could care less what college basketball game is on each night.  You are right they are more likely to watch nba or playing video games or they are worried more about their own season.

All I know is, if people are concerned about a school's national reputation because of a game(any game) priorities of life are askew.

Well we are talking about college basketball. Not life.

More often than not it’s better that recruits don’t watch us play.

Point is, Indiana BB isn’t trending well in ANY domain.

Winning? Nah
Recruiting? Nah
Public Perception? Nah
Coaching Prowess? Nah
Style of play? Nah
Cool Factor? Nah
Media attention? Nah

Fun times

And yet, there are still people who think this guy needs another year to strangle the program. Incredible, really.

Might catch lightning in a bottle.

Keion Brooks come over.
Aaron Henry joins him.
TJD returns.
Archie realizes it’s ok to push the pace and get out in transition. And not every offensive possession has to start with a ball reversal.
Godzilla is our starting 5 man.

Has there been a single person on this board say he absolutely needs one more year? Seriously. Has one single person said everyone needs to pipe down b/c Archie needs a 5th year?

You have an incredible ability to own yourself. You’ve gone on and on about being in ESPN on more than one occasion. And how we get relegated to FS1. Our national perception is important for recruiting!! Then you admit recruits don’t flip through TV channels. They get their info on social media (or they are streaming by the way). Hah! We have as much social media exposure as any other program. And FS1 is just as accessible to stream as ESPN is. So which is it? My guess is your answer is whatever supports the current sentence you are trying to type.

Don't know about this board, but on HSN there are some who still think he needs more time and are completely unwilling to even discuss the topic.

Ah...wow. Then my apologies if I came across strong. At least on this board it seems even the strongest Archie supporters have at very least come around to the fact that his future is up for discussion.

What kind of social media exposure do you believe the program has outside of the universities accounts?

As much as anybody being recruited by us, which means they will likely follow the relevant accounts, needs to see. But once again, way to just zoom past the point, and as previously mentioned by Hov, just change what the argument is about.
