Yeah I disagree, only UK is really in that discussion, they’re just as intolerant as IU fans. UNC? Not even close

Duke also not close. Duke's a big national brand but it's fanbase is mostly alumni (pretty small school) and casual/fair weather fans. 

Kansas I think also has a stake to claim. UK, KU, IU seem to be the most vocal about it online, anyway.

Uh, the idea that Woodson is “worse” than Archie is monumentally ridiculous.

Neither of them should be the head coach of Indiana Men’s Basketball.

If Woody had been hired by Dayton when Archie was, you really think he would've made an Elite 8 and 5 straight tourneys with a mid major roster?

At IU - you know, where it really matters to this fanbase, not Dayton - Miller never got to the NCAAT while Woodson so far is 2/2. Who gives a s**t how Woodson may or may not have done at Dayton? He's better at IU that Miller was, not that that's saying a lot because Miller suuuuucked.

Woodson coached in the NBA. He is light years ahead of Archie.

Woody got to the tournament twice... with Archie's guys.

At this point our recruiting is in the crapper.  We should have a stable of solid HS lined up for next year and the year after.  We got one.  If you’re going to rely on mercenary transfers you’re going to have some wild rides.  

I wouldn't say the recruiting is in the crapper.  I would say that the team construction is in the crapper.  I like Ke'lel Ware, but imagine if IU had picked up one of the top portal transfers who was a guard instead of Ware.  Let's say IU had Knecht instead of Ware.  Reneau could slide over to the 5.

What about the guy that Dusty May took over for at FAU and who only won 31% of his games there?  He's a former NBA HC.   Better than Archie?

JHS was an Archie guy?

The roster is a mess this year especially at guard but geez! How quickly we forget the game plan that won at Mackey last season…..

We have zero bricks coming in to build a foundation.  We should have a class of at least 3-4 quality, foundational, players.

McNeeley? In a good spot with Queen? Really? Nothing matters til transfer season is over anyway.

[IUFAN1976]

I have a rant.  Why doesn’t Ware rim run?  TJD used to do it a lot, but that is one thing that seems to be missing!  This team doesn’t seem to hustle and sprint down the floor and dive for lose balls

Ya do realize that Archie was 12-15 with those guys?  And that the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th leading scorers whom accounted for 40% of the scoring transferred?

If you are talking rim running in terms of taking it on a break himself, he's simply not the ball handler that TJD is and he doesn't have the same nose for the game.  Ware is a pretty good player, but he's not TJD.

Last time I checked our final roster for next year isn't set. A lot of teams who mainly are using the portal probably doesn't have many signed for next year

To be fair, he would’ve in the canceled season. But yes, didn’t perform well enough.

Those fans have less of a reason to be ‘intolerant.’ Give them 11 tournaments in 22 seasons and see just how tolerant they are…

One player.  Queen “deciding” between a crap Maryland program and us?   I bet Purdue is shaking in their boots.  
 

If we are going to actually build a program, not a team, we should have classes stacked up.
