Archie is bad, but there is no way Woody could do at Dayton what Archie did.

Woody could be the worst coach in D1 this year.  Top-5 NIL and he's on the bubble... I can't think of anyone else with such a mismatch of resources to results.

The only reason IU is "on the bubble" is due to pre-season rankings. If this were, say, Eastern Michigan with the same resume, they wouldn't even be on the radar.

In another month or so, IU won't still be getting the benefit of the doubt based on being overrated in the preseason.

Guys we aren’t on the bubble. We aren’t even close to the bubble. And unless you think we can win more games than we lose the rest of way in conference there’s 0 chance.  The season is already over

And going into the season…anything less than a 2nd weekend top 4 seed was a failure

Dude has been exposed as much as Mike Woodson this year. He puffed his chest 24/7 this summer and was incredibly abrasive, and then he went into hiding after the Louisville game. It reconfirms my theory that he was a Woodson plant. 

No doubt and he came out swinging. He pretty much joined the board when this thread started and insistently wouldn’t shut up about how right he was.

We need more L’s to continue the tank train. Last night was a huge W for those of us on the train currently. Keep the train rolling to our final destination!

They wouldn't even give him a first look.

Dayton would take a flyer on him...

Great point. IU Basketball is currently getting the SEC Football version of poll inertia. The B1G is also down this year on the whole IMO. .500 in league play is not going to get in I don't think. We really needed a Q1 win in the Bahamas and it was not being talked about enough. The rest of the non-con left no room for laying an egg like that.

I understand why Woody scheduled like he did this season since getting smashed in national marquee games is a trademark of his regime, but it left us zero wiggle room. Last night was a winnable road game, any shot at the tourney requires those now to sniff the bubble.

Leave no doubt, lose out.

I would disagree with that.  Preseason rankings have no effect on if a team is on the bubble or not.   IU is trending in the wrong direction however they would be considered being on the bubble at this point in the season because they do have a top 75 neutral court win good for a Q2 win with their 3 losses to current tournament quality teams or other teams in the mix.   Nebraska beat Creighton on the road so no shame in losing to them on the road.    With all that said I personally don’t feel they are a tourney team or even close to the cut line yet but just wanted to give a bracketologist perspective as to why you will see them mentioned on the bubble

Imagine being Painter. Make the final game and you are still not the king of indiana.

Agree that preseason ranking wouldn’t matter because IU would not be on the bubble right now. 1-3 in quad 1-2 with the 3 losses being blow outs would not get us in. It’s an up hill climb from here.

The perfect Christmas present would be a Woodson retirement video. Would be a great way to save face for him personally

The guys on twitter all summer said Woodson is cooking and has a top ten team. It was pathetic

Imagine taking 6 million dollars and flushing it down the toilet. That's the big boosters. But the king thanks them

It’s the only way for the rest of the year to not be full of blood curdling screams and echoing boos.

Dane Fife sighting.  Read through the whole thread....

As long as Woodson is gone at the end of the year, I couldn’t care less what happens the rest of the way. What a sad state of affairs.

Looking ahead to March Madness…. Wait a couple more games and bet on IU to win the NCAA March Madness tournament.  The odds should be astronomical and potentially a lot of $$$ money to be made.
