Maybe the Bloomington night life plays a roll... see Ballo. I can guarantee you that it's not happening at Indiana under Mike Woodson. There's no "teaching" or "coaching" or "developing" going on here... just a bunch of overpaid wanna-bees doing their thing without guardrails, direction or consequences... and the Parasite Clown leading the parade down the street.

Remember, he has self anointed himself "The King of Indiana." He can make all the noise that he want's to make. His 4-year record more than speaks for itself. He's the king of "self". Period.

He will retire; it won't be a firing. In the end, Buckner will make sure that he exits gracefully at least to the outside world. Behind the scenes, I suspect we'll never see him in Bloomington again. GOOD RIDDANCE. It can't come soon enough!

We have 8 players averaging over 19 minutes a game. No one is averaging 30 minutes per game. Woodson needs to figure out his 5 players that mesh the best and give them the bulk of the minutes. Rice and Ballo should be playing at least 32 minutes per game. We need to develop chemistry amongst a core group. Trying to get 8 players significant minutes does not help with chemistry.

That's like me telling my parents I did my job with a C+ average on my report card. This sort of gaslighting is so pathetic -- everyone can see the W/L record and missing the 68 team tournament by a country mile.
Hornsby Posted December 31, 2024 Posted December 31, 2024 They probably picked IU because we threw the most money at them. In reality, outside of maybe a couple of players, I don't think many of these guys care about Indiana like we do...at least they don't play like it. I would love to be proved wrong about this...but laughing on the bench up 3 against Winthrop doesn't quell this thinking. One can only hope, they prove us wrong.Money fore sure but also free rein. They don't care. Heck purdue still has mostly kids from Indiana. We have two.Sent from my SM-A146U using Tapatalk

This is pretty wild to be honest and I think highlights how Woodson runs this like an NBA team, not a college one. Are we positive his staff’s “recruiting pitch” is not simply “come to Indiana, showcase your game on a national stage and get a big payday.” … nothing at all about winning games, I suppose… JF87 1

WayneFleekHoosier Posted December 31, 2024 Posted December 31, 2024 Least surprising New Years Eve revelation. Woodson pronounces the S in Illinois.
