Can we wander around like old people do and then just throw something in about Coach Woodson at the end?

 

Ahhhhhh...Yes. That is acceptable.

(*answer that is destined to be a bad idea)

Honey be careful it looks like lightning. Can you try turning that big metal lightening rod/antenna a little more.  Kids these days will never know some of the finer things

I was that person . Just like USPShoosier, dad wouldn't let rain, snow or anything else keep me from turning the antenna.

This 26 year old had a few tears in his eyes, lol.

I hated the idea when I first saw him mentioned as a candidate. I really hated it. I wanted a big name coach and I was very adamant about that. But now I'm all in on Coach Woodson. Seeing someone who loves IU basketball like I do as the new head coach was really cool. It's not just another job that happens to pay more than his last job for him. It's his dream job, and I know he's going to do everything he can to get the program back to where we all want it to be. 

I love it! I’m with you. I’m to young to remember him play and he wasn’t who I had in mind but I’m all in.I really hope we can get this program to be dominant again so a whole new era of IU fans can enjoy good basketball!

Just watched Fisch's interview. CMW wants TJD back because "I think I can help him become more polished for the next level". Also said he has to develop his right hand. Pretty bold statement at this point in time IMO, but it is the truth...

I’ve been thinking about this and wished that BTN would allow for multiple broadcast with each team having their own broadcast. Like NBA/MLB etc. Maybe I’m in the minority, but I’d pay for that service like I do for MLB network. Would be a lot better than Bardo who could just go to Illinois games all season.

Damn onions...

No one dared calling our house during a game. My dad would lose it on them. Yes this was my childhood too. I think that’s why I like this hire so much. He gets it, he lived it.

BTN barely pays for one crew to cover the game, there's no way they're paying for two crews. If they did do that, they would just have the students do it for free like BTN+. That's why I've been streaming Fisch and (insert Suhr here) the past couple years for basketball and football.

(P.S. Go Mike Woodson!)

Hey guys, all  this reminiscing is close to my heart as well, but we really need to keep this thread focused on Woody.  Feel free to start a new thread and enjoy.

Whose families had the foam IU brick to throw? My grandfather did....and it was during the Woody era, so this is on topic.

My family had multiple bricks.  

Edit: And just saw keeping on topic....so I think we keep Lander, Franklin, and Trayce.  Durham is gone to Providence.  I think Race and Geronimo try to get closer to home.

You know what is a travesty?  Mike Woodson had been on the job less than a week, has probably barely watched film on TJD, and is able to identify "hey, this guy needs to develop his right hand".  (Something said on these forums as well).  Where on earth was our development the past few years?
