Woody and the staff not being at Sisley’s game, while Painter is there, is infuriating. Unless he knows a change is being made, there is no excuse for that. 
 

How can anyone possibly defend him here? His seat is hotter than a jalapeño’s armpit. Painter is showing up while he has a legit chance to win a title this year. 
 

Few things piss me off more than laziness.                                                                                                                                                    Mullins has multiple schools in tonight .

How likely is it that they've been told this already? Not real likely, right? That's more of a conversation for Monday after selection Sunday, no?

Yes but it’s strange that we didn’t have any coaches at any games. Sectionals are a great place to see recruits. Pressure situations.

Saying tone-deaf, foolish stuff in pressers and failing to go out to see top targets at sectionals…that’s just failing the easy stuff. It’s skipping the reading, not trying on the homework. It’s how you fail.

IMO that’s a much bigger negative than any moral victories from wins the rest of the way.

Speaking of serial killer, I was helping my daughter with a school project a bit ago and she had me cut out magazine letters for words to put in her display board..I told her, "you know this is like a serial killer thing right sweetie?"

Tend to think Dolson notices and is sharp, really hope he knows what isn’t happening tonight.

He is a different animal as am I at the age of 71. So I don't generalize anyone because I hated when the doctors and nurses did not believe me before hip surgery, that I did not have a family doctor, I don't have a walker and I am not on any medications. THAT is generalization. I guess you failed to pick up on my dry sense of humor.

Guess I did. 
I will soon be 67 and had a total knee replacement.

If you ever watch the Winter Olympics, I am a curler. Flexing my knee to the max.

Old is only a state of mind

I never felt like he was acting like a big shot, he was just awkward. He just seemed uncomfortable in social settings. But at times he could be funny. 

This × 100. The aloofness was mistaken as arrogance. He's an awkward person, and he didnt know how to embrace the attention. It's almost like he didn't have self-confidence and in some situations he overcame his lack of self-confidence with grander displays of righteousness . . . or so I've hear.

The bottom line is that he wasn’t ready for the fish bowl that is the head coach of IUMBB.

And after losing Boogie and Queen and having only one 2024 recruit, getting booed in your own building and having to know your seat is hot, you’d think he would at least try to make it look like he cares and at least show up and say he tried.

Agreed... here's to wishful thinking

If anyone is wondering, I’ve let Bruce know we definitely need to stay on Mullins.  I’ll let you all know where I’m at the rest of the weekend.  ;)

[cleeter 2,128]

That is just hard to believe. Did that really happen? I don't see any photos of the coaching staff on X at any games. Just hard to believe.

Braylon Mullins did talk to IU assistant Brian Walsh on the phone after his sectional win….phew. All is well now.

what a clown show.  

[cleeter 2,128]

what a clown show.  

The staff is saving their visits for portal visits in the offseason and that’s why they weren’t there tonight is what we are being told now according to Rabby. Trilly said his source says there is “no specific reason they aren’t out. They just…aren’t.” So take it how you want

Wonder what Woody is doing with his day off. Or Thursday. Or Friday. Before leaving for College Park Saturday

I remember seeing Bob Knight in 1989 the night after Indiana had gotten drilled by about 20 to watch some fringe prospect from New Albany that IU ended up not even offering.  Woody does not seem to have the grind in him necessary.

[Hoosierfan2017 21,423]

They can put out whatever excuses they can come out with, but the reality is Woody is just lazy. He simply doesn't want to go out to high school games on a Wednesday night, so he doesn’t. Bring in someone who actually wants to do the job and doesn’t just want the title.

I admittedly don’t know, but I thought it was # of visits per recruit not just a total number of visits combined for all recruits?  If it’s per recruit, at least my visit tonight will count against Auburn.

The chances of Woodson ever coaching Sisley are probably near zero, but I'd like to think he isn't even bothering at this point because he knows he won't be back.

Indiana can't afford to keep whiffing on hires, that's why I'd prefer we get as proven as we can.

I'd be thrilled with Pearl. IU could've hired him a couple time over the last 20 years probably so I don't see why they would look at him this time; plus a program that serious doesn't hire Mike Woodson period.

Think about this:

Mike Davis - 1-29 and 357th in Kenpom... Probably fired, not likely to land another head coaching gig

Kelvin Sampson - Banned from coaching for 5 years

Dan Dakich - Out of coaching / Unable to land a head coaching gig

Tom Crean - Out of coaching / Unable to land a head coaching gig

Archie Miller - Not looking good at RI / Probably unable to land a head coaching gig

Mike Woodson - Probably fired / Probably unable to land a head coaching gig

THAT IS 5 OUT OF OUR LAST 6 COACHES WHO ARE LIKELY UNABLE TO LAND ANOTHER HEAD COACHING JOB. I'm not sure any other school has that many just utter failures as coaches.... Its truly remarkable
