We are such an embarssement. I’m so glad that the previous athletic director hired other great coaches. We’re obviously dealing with someone who can’t objectively evaluate coaches. 

Aren’t you the one that wanted Becky Hammon? Lol...

Unfortunately, he is yet to understand that Woodson is old and no one knows who he is and Matta is cripled and 4 yrs removed form college BB... yet.

I would rather have a stupid dart and aim it at a list of other candidates......  I think this gives us better odds than this garbage.

The age aspect is a non-issue, but he’ll need two absolute sharks & a healthy amount of resources to land players. Even in the most urban American sport, having resources, the proper connections, & effort can get a player to show up anywhere.

I'll believe when it is official. I will also support him until he no longer deserves my support as I would any one they hire.
I wanted Stevens, Oats or the other homeruns mentioned. I knew BS was a fantasy. It looked like the others were happy where they were at.
After that, I really didn't care who they hired. Past results do not necessarily equal future results. I understand past results can be a pretty good predictor.
If the rumors are correct and Matta is on the staff also, I'm good.

We shall see

We get it you don’t like the hire.  Just don’t come back when he starts winning.  Everyone deserves a chance to do the job they were hired for.

Plus I would take out women’s coach in a heart beat over this garbage.  They actually know how to teach defense.

I'm in, as I said I would be.

You dug up my old posts, you saw I hated the Archie hire.

I’ll root for the team, but I’m not watching a game. This specific departement in men’s athletic is a dumpster fire. I’ll watch women’s basketball with joy.  Thank god the football team is legit. 

I think we fully understand your opinion.  You can now meltdown elsewhere.

Don’t lump in buddy to make yourself feel superior. I said I would root for the program.  I’m loyal, I donate $5,000 each year to the program.  But this is garbage and all of you know we should expect better.

Feel free to check out anytime.

Well, **** it, let’s all get on board the Woodson train. Love that Matta is here to help him.

Is it windy in the Midwest today?  If so, that is all the other coaches in the big ten breathing a sigh of relief and then laughing hysterically

Then you saw him coach IU and thought he was wonderful.
