Not only have I never seen an IU team do this before to any coach, I can't remember any team, for any school doing this.

Makes it very clear (to me at least) the relationship between the players and coach is not only one of respect,  but also of friendship and admiration.

Go Hoosiers.

Have to jump on here on the mike Woodson and staff and say I think we should be beyond pleased with what has occurred so far. I am not totally sold on his in game coaching yet but everything else is impressive so far. We were dead. Many respectable posters on here stated you can't bring a program back just like that and I believe them and Woodson has really done an amazing job at doing it in short order. I did not like the hire but wow was I wrong lol. Not sure about the future but feels like the culture has changed. Feels like old iu is back just by his uniting of passed recent past and future. Imo ot has paid off even more than I thought but I feel the difference is these kids buy in to past success means they need to relate? Something i b think other coaches tried to separate from and re create on their own. Long rant sorry but Woodson has really done a remarkable job so far imo. Yep bowling night I am drunk lol

What I saw last night was effort to be proud of. Many things (foul discrepancy a big one) didn't go IU's way but there was no head hanging, letting up on defense or trying to make up for mistakes with something even dumber aside from X's half court foul after whatever that was on previous possession. I have been concerned with the shooting progression of this team and still am but what I am not concerned about is the pride this team is taking on the defensive end, in one another and the program. It starts with Woody but I get this feeling that we have some grown men on this team that are determined for this team to succeed. 2 of them are TJD and X. I will take these 2 as far as PG/C combos over every other combo. They may not be the best there is but they have the desire and determination that can do great things. I really hope this team does some special things this year. This post provides nothing and was completely unnecessary but my wife and daughters don't care what I have to say about IU so I figured I'd throw it here.

I don't ever remember the bench being as engaged as this one is. Some of CAM's bench shots looked like the kids would rather be anywhere but there. These guys want each other to succeed and celebrate when someone does. That is a sign of a coach who knows what he is doing. The jump from two years ago to now is amazing. Indiana basketball is good and fun again.

To add to that is guys on the court getting as excited, if not more so, for doing something that lead to another player's success (Geronimo last night). That is also culture and a refreshing sight to me not just for this team but for sports in general. Hard not to like this group of guys 1-13 (don't know how many walk-ons we have). Sent from my SM-G996U using Tapatalk

I liked Woody when hired... wasn't 100% sold, but thought he could do well, the right type of guy,  and chances were good. 

He has surpassed every expectation I had so far.

Now my expectations are getting scary unrealistic lol... Not expecting a NC this year or anything like that... But the outlook is very, very bright... 

Good play. Good recruiting. Good development. Good locker room. Good effort. And great energy from the fan base.

TIL
Woodson does not have a typical “hierarchy”
For his assistants.

I hope not. I would absolutely go with the coach that had the scout that game.
