I wonder if this won’t be a problem for IU. Yea.. we’re NIL high rollers now, but who would pay for this crap? Who would pay for our last twenty years?  
 

It’s one thing to pay for seats where you can recoup some of the investment or to donate to the school under the veil of helping out the university. But how long will the average fan pay into NIL collectives for this crap? My guess is you don’t get to suck for two decades in this new era and still get to soak the fans.  
 

I have tix to the Wisconsin game. I’d sell them tonight, if a guy wasn’t driving up to go to the game and stay with a mutual friend. 

I’m all the way with you. If we continue this I just don’t see how anyone can justify putting the money into the program like our donors and fans have for so many years.

I think most of us are at the stage of acceptance where we know that we're not really going anywhere with Coach Woodson and hope the rest of our fanbase doesn't linger too long so that we can move on. You can get all the recruits in the world but if they can't develop and the coach is too stubborn to change his patterns then we gotta make a change.  We know what this is. It's a different coach but we have the same problems.  I wish we could fire the IU administration (not all coaches obviously ) top to bottom.

Serious question?

Does Trey shoot 50% from FT in practice? And happy to hit rim from 3 in practice?

I imagine he does. But if not, why is he absolutely broken shooting in games?

26% from the line. Not convinced anyone wanted to play this game tonight. Really starting to dislike this group as a whole.

Coach just said he thought our defense and energy was good tonight. I think rutgers sucks at shooting and it wasn't great imo

I wonder who would be the coach if the AD was Kraft or the other guy people liked. Lot’s of “What ifs” for IU

What could have been if Knight offered Painter instead of Leary. IU was Painter’s favorite school and would of walk over broken glass and hot coals to Bloomington.

Think the only reason he offered Leary was to try to get Montross.

Kinda funny sequence from early on when the game was 18-11. Malik tried to touch/tip pass into the corner but it went out of bounds. Woodson had his dumbounded look on and I clearly read his lips saying "Never do that again." Lol it was funny at the time. 

He shortly after got on Walker for getting the ball taken from him on a would-be rebound. Walker was trying to make his case that he got hit in the face/was fouled.

It's just sad to see them make excuses, be confused, scared of making a mistake... clearly the staff is in the head of the players, but not necessarily in a good way considering how many straight up dumb plays we make.

Good to know that we won't be seeing that sub pattern in future games. Won't answer it because he's retiring it after tonight, obviously

I think everyone will agree with this. Whatever this was tonight is not indiana basketball. When I became a fan of the Hoosiers games like this were extremely rare. Fundamentals. Smart basketball making free throws and good defense. Rebounding and hustle. What happened tonight was absolutely none of that.

We always say this isn’t Indiana basketball. The sad thing it is now and has been for a lot years.  I hate saying it but Indiana basketball sucks :(  I won’t stop watching and rooting for them though and hope it changes soon.

How is this the same guy that coached the Knicks? Dude needs to call it a career.

[Kentuckysucks 2,206]

Yikes.

Who is this and why does it matter? Being serious

They were tougher than us for 40 minutes both physically and mentally. We lack leadership on the court and on the sideline.

Don’t think we would’ve cared for all the early tournament flameouts.
