In a sense it is just “one” bad year.  Problem is he’s wasted the three years and failed to build any foundation.  If you get lost in the win/loss record you’ll miss the real issue.  

And it's "one bad year" from any angle that you look at it... performance, execution, fundamentals, coaching, HS recruiting, portal recruiting, spinning the narrative, owning the crap-fest... and it could easily be "the gift that keeps giving", as Woodson has set us up for multiple years of failure with a single 12-month period.

If a younger guy, like May, had these results I think we might be more lenient because he is not nearing retirement. 

And a guy like May has coached college basketball with a positive outcome before... May has a clue... clearly Woodson doesn't/hasn't/won't ever.

Yes, and/or if recruiting was in a different place — if we were in the exact same spot plus Boogie and a couple of ‘25s committed, it might feel different. Even more so with someone younger, or who acknowledged this year as a failure.

But Woody checks none of those boxes, the scheme is the same with worse personnel, the 13th scholarship sure could’ve been useful this year, and so on.

I agree. Also, Woodson talked a big game when he was hired about how he wasn’t gonna be patient and wanted to compete for big ten championships right away.

Penn State, you must do what needs to be done. Win by 25!

It truly sucks to be at the spot of cheering for your team to get demolished each game just in order to bring some change.

I’m guessing someone from the athletic department or basketball program asked Elston & Watford to put out their latest podcast.

And Woodson has said he's supposed to be a bridge, May wouldn't. Bridge guy shouldn't mean complete rebuild after 3 year.

Fully believe that. A window into what they are thinking at the moment.

Woodson built a bridge to basketball hell.

 The constant hiring and firing of coaches makes IU look bad.. What message does that send to future players and coaches that might be interested?... which for the record I think is total b******* but that's what I took from their podcast.

We've been there for over 20 years at this point.

One more year! One more year! One more year!

My guess is that Woodson still controls his own destiny.  Finish 3 and 3 or better and the administration probably gives him one more year.  Finish 2-4 or worse and the pressure will be on to make a change.  We have the talent to win all of our remaining games.  Can we improve enough to turn things around?  Possibly, but it's doubtful since we've seen very little consistency in this team. 

[Hoosierfan2017 20,931]

Nothing iubb-related pisses me off more and makes me want to support the team less than the ‘blame the fans’ take. The fanbase is the only good thing this pathetic program has left.

We could be great again if the fans would just shut up and accept mediocrity.

I do not see any way in the world they finish 3-3.  I think it is way more likely they lose out than go 3-3.    My prediction would be 1-5
