Shows where we are as a program. Excited about bearing another bad team.

With our top-5 payroll $6M+ roster.

We are going to beat a lot of teams that don't have the personnel to neutralize Ballo.  The question is whether Woodson can find a way to beat good teams that can take Ballo away?  Unfortunately, we are looking at .500 in the Big Ten again with this talented and experienced roster. Time to move on from Woodson.

Big win. IU probably booked their tickets to Indy for the B1G Tournament. Huge.

I sure don’t like the eerie silence….

After a road victory would be a good time to retire for health reasons.

To anyone who wants Woodson fired midseason for interim see OSU. Want no part of a dead cat bounce from an interim who then gets job full time completely screwing program as has happened to Buckeyes.

Woodson needs to go but after season. An interim now could do way more damage to program long term if they do well and are kept which could absolutely happen. Want no part of Jake Diebler Ohio St situation. 

IU didn't hire the last interim coach and i don't see it happening in this case if Woodson is gone before the end of the year.

Nothing has changed... all of the insiders saying something could be announced "this weekend" and guess what? It's still "this weekend". Woodson pulled out a win of the slimmest margin over a 2-4 team. No one is walking back the "he gone" narrative. He's toast.

Woody may think he can bluster his way through but Dolson, Buckner et. al. are not going to want to see him subjected to another Illinois game with constant boos, chants and massive no shows or halftime walkouts.   Those of us that watched him play can remember what a great player he was.  But for many their memory of him down the road isn't going to be a favorable one.

No doubt. Woody looks really labored moving around the sidelines. Looks like he has an undisclosed lower body injury that will keep him from coaching indefinitely. There I gave IU the easiest way to get out of this mess now are they smart enough to go with it.

This is a pretty good podcast. It is Brandon Brown, Jack Anthony and Todd Golden doing the Hoosier Roundtable Podcast:

100% agree!  It would not look good!

He’s more than toast, he’s burnt!

I cannot see anything being done after a win.  I still think he finishes out the season.  But if something does happen it will be after a loss. 

[Pagoda 966]

At worst Woody has a winning 5-4 conference record going into the Maryland game at home.  If he wants to coach, and he will, I can’t imagine IU not letting him, especially with Quinn and Steve around.  He’s still trying to save his season.

[Chris007 45,657]

Nothing was going to be done today. Might not happen after that epic win last night haha but it’s needs to be done. He thinks we’re good at 14-5, thinks we’ve played good basketball. He will get booed off the court after the next 20 point loss. But our administration will probably sit on their hands even though they have a plan in place.

The most interesting part of the rest of the season is going to be how the crowd at Assembly Hall acts, lol 

[TheWatShot 14,249]

I think I've got all the stages of this process figured out:

1) We get embarrassed, fans are pissed, we all want Woodson gone right away.

2) Our insiders/whisperers start telling us things we want to hear, leaving us eager for more and hopeful a change is coming.

3) The team picks up an unexpected, ugly win. 

4) Our insiders/whisperers start walking back what they've said. 

5) We prepare for the next inevitable beatdown. 

 

Looks like we're at #4.

I agree completely.  I cannot wait for the next home game.
