No we don’t have that little talent. We have lost to multiple teams with lesser talent requiring us to beat teams with more talent. 

Oh please.  We have a mid major roster at best.

Every organized team I was a part of from middle school on practiced a variety of common special situations, e.g. tie game, # seconds left, length of the court. Could’ve tried to get a TO but you also HAVE to trust the guys on the floor to know you just need one good, quick, push-it-up and one or zero passes, shot. A fourth year PG forgot that, moments after he forgot to guard his man and put a forward in rotation as a result

XJ didn’t forget. He’s just not capable. That’s why you get a TO, imo. 
 

I’ve seen those situations practiced a thousand times. Some guys can execute. Some can’t.

Woodson has a solid roster, we should have more wins than what we currently do. There’s been underperformance from both parties, the coaches and players. 
 

I don’t think our players are put in the most successful positions on offense. Defense has been great as he’s always been a defensive coach, but we should be better offensively with the players we have now.

Woodson, Fife, Matta,etc should be making a difference, realize they can’t shoot the ball but I don’t see us playing smart and that is mostly coaching.

Fife, Matta, Hunter, Rosemond are not being listened to. Hill, Wittman, Todd are the people Woody trust. 
 

Hopefully that changes soon. On another note we had an open checkbook this last time, no one wanted this job.

We didn’t need a guy to take over today. We just needed not to Jack two stupid shots and to play basic defense.  You don’t need a stud to do that 

And that’s on Woodson?   I’m sure in the huddle he said “hey let’s just play stupid basketball and chuck up wild shots, that’ll work.”

We were up in OT and end up losing by double digits.  Way to go.  Don't be surprised when this team loses out and misses the tournament.

 

If we lose out then I think the Woodson high will come crashing to the ground. 
 

We can’t afford to lose to Maryland and Rugters at home, this will turn into a dumpster fire outside the Kroger. Winning at Minny and Purdue is questionable.

Did we even reach out to people like Oates, Mussleman, Beard? Did they not want the job because of how Glass ran the program?

Which just proves he’s not cut out for this

everyone is entitled to their wrong opinions. Lol.

They guy is older than Woodson and just got to his second FF (a second straight embarrassment). He’s also untrustworthy. 
 

I know we’ve fallen as a program, but I hope our standards are higher than 2 FF’s in 30 years. Hell Tom Crean and Mike Davis have 1….we could’ve just kept them.

I'm sorry, if a 64 year old that no one else wanted is the best IU could do then we may as well shut the program down.

Oats & Musselman had no interest, Beard is at his alma mater

Our “mid major at best” roster was 16-5 and 7-4 in the conference 3.5 weeks ago. Illinois and MSU were more talented than us. We choked against Wisconsin and OSU. We didn’t lose because of talent. We lost to northwestern because half our team got themselves suspended. PSU and @Wisconsin should’ve been wins. There’s really no excuse for us not being comfortably in the tournament. We just haven’t executed.

Bingo!  We don’t have a go to guy like Davis who can take over a game and create his own shot.  We make dumb play after dumb play down the stretch!  We have a point guard who is bipolar and our best 3 point shooters are more catch and shoot guys and one of them can’t hit at all from deep.  We have a flawed roster that was primarily put together by the previous coaching staff.

Our roster has flaws and our coaching staff exacerbates those flaws.
