Good catch, doc.

I wonder who is injured.

Yeah, that would be my guess as well.  Woody has used his 'new guys getting to know each other' excuse, get ready for the injury excuse coming in hot.

Yeah you're right, poor phrasing on my part. Just find his mentality sooo frustrating and not logical, lol.

Wonder what he's getting at... suppose we'll find out soon enough

The 2AM tweet is curious

Wonder if we're going to learn of an arrest soon... that's where my mind immediately goes if there's "news" at 2am 

[IUrocker 2,202]

At this point I could see Woody so damn pathetic enough to talk a player into being “injured” and keep him out of games just to be able to use that as an excuse for not winning…

…..sounds ridiculous, but I’ve reached the point of not putting it past this man to do such a thing just to make himself look better.

He picked these guys.  So adapt and play zone.  :) 

Exactly, I said this over a week ago, dummy down the defensive scheme and play a 2-3 zone but everyone know Woodson is too stubborn to change anything and he wants to prove his system works.  He is just making excuses like he always does and now the next move is to announce a rotation player is injured, which will be used as an excuse too

That’s funny, I just said the same thing!  They have been doing that for a while.

Yea.  If so I’m surprised news isn’t out yet.  I’m leaning injury.

Whatever it is, I don’t want it to be a possible excuse for the season being bad.

Maybe they are announcing that Woodson is fired or stepping down. One can only dream!

If it is an injury then we won't hear about it till Saturday most likely. It's finals week and everything is super quiet around here with a lot of people going home and off work.

He also said that many of our new players came from schools that play mostly zone defense, which is why we were having trouble on D., which is not true. Also said we played good defense against Nebraska. So Delusional

He’s not only considers himself the King of Indiana, but he’s the King of Excuses!

It’s almost like our not a college basketball head coach has also not watched any college basketball film. 

We all know the answer to that, he’s too lazy to put any work in at all

What a freaking moron. Does he even watch his team play? Arrogance and incompetence make a pretty lethal combination in a P4 coach.

I was thinking the same thing but almost didn’t want to put it into the ether lol so thanks for falling on that sword. It’s hard just on talent alone to imagine us doing worse than .500 in the B1G, but I have a real hard time envisioning many road wins. My personal guess would be 7 to 10 wins in the B1G, make the BTT, not the NCAA. 

Well, he's told us repeatedly that winning on the road in the B1G is hard... and hard things are difficult when you're clueless.

That's a real issue if the moneybags bankrolling Woody get peed off and significantly reduce their contributions or stop altogether.  Should that happen, we better hope there's other donors who will step up to the plate because Woody is gone.

There have to be deep-pocket donors who care about results more than nepotism, right? Hopefully... or we're screwed for all of eternity.

I was doing some thinking about the rest of the year last night. 

The more I thought about it, the more I felt like this season really might go completely off the rails. 

Thought my bias may be clouding my ideas, so I looked at the NET Rankings and Woody's winning percentage vs. each Quad. 

My back of the napkin math: as it stands today - we have 13 Q1 games, 3 Q2 games, 4 Q3 games left.

As it stands today there are 6 games that could be Q1/Q2 (Michigan, Purdue, PSU, OSU) or Q2/Q3 (Rutgers, at Washington).

Woody has a 31% winning pct vs Q1, 64% vs Q2, and 89% vs Q3.

That would be good for 10 more wins. That'd put us at 18-13 overall. 

I have a hard time seeing us finishing better than 21-10 absolute best case. 18-13 or worse more likely IMO. 

Torvik Teamcast has same 18-13 projection and us missing the tournament as the 4th team out (without the B1G tourney sim).

Needed to win 2 games in the B1G tourney to be one of the last 4 in.

To be fair Nebraska only scored 85, Woodson is probably use to his NBA teams giving up more than that.

Well, that's his go to excuse... I think he's used it all four years...

I saw the tweet but I’m half thinking that account just wants engagement at this point. If you’re going to be an “insider” why not spill 

[Hornsby 2,091]

He’s not only considers himself the King of Indians, but he’s the King of Excuses!

The king is surrounded by people who inflate his massive ego. Worst coach we ever had but in his mind he is great.
