Why are we starting over with an almost completely new roster(now with 0 2024 commits) with a 66 year old coach?  I have yet to receive a decent answer to this question.  It defies all logic. 

Because Archie got 4 years..I know dumb reason

Woodson is the most incompetent coach IU has had since Davis and he might be worse. The fact that he hadn’t been in communication with McNeeley since he signed is a joke but I can’t say I’m surprised. He’s been really lazy ever since he got the job but @KathywithaC says he’s better than Allen was so I guess he’s the right guy to lead the IU program.

Liam was an all in on Indiana. The constant tweets, social media posts. 
 

Then, his friends go elsewhere. Then he asks for his release from his commitment the day after Indiana leaked Woodson would be back. This is not good folks. This is a terrible look. I don’t see Woodson and staff recovering from this whatsoever. 
 

If I’m on the Indiana staff, I’m updating my resume and jumping ship as soon as the season is over. 

....yep, She's takin' on water as we speak and listing......

We now have a coach who apparently has no interest in recruiting high school kids unless they're five-stars. 

Meanwhile, a five-star has just decommitted from the program. 

That leaves us with NO recruiting class. 

Oh, the irony.

Woke up to this thought - open, X and AW gone.   Gunn and Banks assuredly transfer.  Ware  guaranteed to go pro.  Sounding more and more like Malik and Galloway transfer.  Now rumors of Cupps leaving are surfacing.  MM a toss up maybe between leaving to be a lifetime G league or overseas entry.  Sparks all but has to stay so why would Leal stay at that point?  My $ is on Newton going closer to home.  Injuries and not being able to do what you left home for are difficult on a young man’s mind.  
 

We seriously could need to fill 10,11, even 12 spots.  It’s going to be 2008 all over again.  Maybe we’ll get 3-5 actual D-1 players who are desperate for more playing time and a check.  The rest?  IU will be paying kids who are walk on, $500,000 to come be a Hoosier for a year or two.  

That doesn’t seem likely. But at this point I can’t say it seems unrealistic either.  
 

That would be an absolute s***show next year. IU boosters seemed to have warmed up to NIL better than I thought they would. I could see something like that turning people off of the system, and blaming it instead of Woody.

Thank God it's Friday

Had we fired Woodson (which we should have) we all would have thought Liam backed out of his LOI because of it. Now we actually know he backed out because we suck. 

[Capt. Crimson 3,415]

Mike Woodson will return in 2024-2025.

*Liam Decommits*

The IU administration:



We all saw this coming. Why would Liam want to be a part of this?

Hopefully someone hears some positive information towards Woodson getting fired today! I don't care if it's true or not. I can't live like this without hope!

Allen was chosen without a real search. Then again Woodson's friends made sure he got it this time so I'm not sure that's any better.

Removed tweet, didn't see the f-bomb in the original.

He needs a chance to right the ship. He steered into the iceberg but that's irrelevant.
