Fire Coach Woodson Thread

He put up the same assist numbers in conference as Galloway. And let’s not forget he was in Iowa’s high tempo offense with some shooters. Mack did his work with much less talent around him.

Mack also has 3 years left…. Perkins is done after next year. Again, to me, it’s not close….

Sure, take them both. But if you have to choose… Mack

Does it really make a difference. After a year under Woodson Mack would probably transfer anyway.

Tony Perkins this past weekend vs a below average Utah team.

 

3, 3, and 4. 
 

29% from 3 and 78% from FT for the season. 
 

He’ll fit right in! 

Who’s your top target for that spot?

Mack 

Mack is a super fun player and will likely be very good at a power five, but I’m partial to the guy that averaged 15 points a game against Big Ten defenses. And he’s a local kid. And he plays angry and defends and really rebounds considering his position.

If the same people who are calling for Malik Reneau to be our five think that we can have skinny, low, physicality guards, you’re asking for lousy roster construction again.

Mack’s size is a problem.

I think my biggest thing is Mack has 3 years left.

Meh…I’d argue with Woody your defense is going to be pretty bad anyways. I’d rather throw up some points in a desperate attempt to be above average.  
 

Roster construction is relative. We’re always going to lack something with this staff. I think bringing in below average 3pt shooters to pair with Galloway is the epitome of bad roster construction.

Yeah good choice however he won’t have free rein to shoot as much as he did against Ivy League competition in a power conference.   Every player is going to have bad games.  I watched Mack play over 30 min and shoot 2-11 (O-4 from 3) against a terrible Penn team.  Posting individual stats from 1 game is pointless in my opinion.    Both would be upgrades to what IU had or has.

My concern is adding Tucker & Perkins, keeping Galloway adds nothing to our 3 point shooting. Plus with Perkins it will take him a little bit get used to the college game. I know we will add other pieces but one will be a big man.

Love love, love, Mack

That doesn’t make Perkins any less of an outstanding pick up.

We are all counting our chickens before they’ve hatched. At this point I’m still hoping for one high-quality pick up. Then we’ll go from there.

Completely agree. But we have seven open spots and plenty of room for a catch and shoot wing to add to the mix.

Miller Kopp was underappreciated in his time!

A little more food for thought:

Cupps was 36% from three on low volume this past season. And he’s in the gym every morning at 6 AM working on that jumpshot. He has a ton of room for growth as a shooter.

Yeah, I think the Tucker news got people excited.

I also jumped to, if they are getting Tucker…that’s means we aren’t playing 2 bigs. But again… let’s take it one step at a time… lol

I do think the fit for Perkins is better if we go Mgabko 4 and Reneau 5. You protect a non shot blocking center with guards and wings who can keep their man out of the lane. And having a plus shooter at the 4 helps offset Perkins' relative lack of shooting.

If you start Perkins and Galloway together, the 3 and 4 absolutely have to be plus shooters. And even then, spacing will still probably be an issue.

Great post.

I’ll propose something even better that many have been calling for. How about Galloway as the first guard off the bench?

If we add three guards/wings better than Galloway, I'll be absolutely thrilled. I would not consider it likely though. Prove me wrong Mike.
