I wish we had some media willing to wait outside AH to try to catch Woody when he goes into the office.  Trying to get a comment from him would be good content.

That would be an impossible hump for them to get over.

Gonna nip this in the bud:

As stated by the mods previously, there will not be an extended discussion about the relative issues/dangers of people with an alleged domestic violence history.

If you guys want to back and forth on that? Go for it, BUT take it to private messages. Posts on the open board that focus on that will be hidden starting now.

It feels good to lose a Woody for once

From my experience, losing a Woody was usually accomplished in a way that felt quite good. Maybe you've been doing it wrong? Try the other hand.

Did he pay someone to drive his car up there, then came to work in a Lyft? LOL

I walk past there every morning at around 8 or 8:30 on my way to work and for the last month his car has been there early, as if he was trying to show that he worked hard.

Probably parks his car there and gets a ride a ride back home lol

If you’re talking about Woody’s car, it’s not even noon there yet. He doesn’t come in until noon.

Probably working from home anyway

Do you really think Mike Woodson has any idea what Lyft is? LOL

Don’t fall for Rabby’s word salad. No chance Woody coaches Saturday. I’ll replace Cig’s face in my profile picture with the face of someone’s choosing if he does. Do your worst.

His car would just still be there from the day before. He Uber home because he had too much wine most days.

In the office by 8 isn’t early for a coach. Ed orgeron(sp) used to get in by 530. Coach Cig is similar I think

Is it really a step down? I’m not trying to be flippant here but is being a GM of an NBA team a bigger deal than being a head coach at a top 10 basketball school? I’m not an NBA fan but I couldn’t name a single GM or front office guy for an NBA team.

First off, it is not just any NBA team.  2ndly, the last I heard is from 4 years ago when it was alleged that Brad Stevens and his family loved Boston. The Midwest is just flyover country. Yeah, selling to recruits come to Indiana and get a top-notch education.  Here where 2/3rd of our population think that anyone with a college education is elitist and show be shunned or shot.  Since then, there are other rumors that that may have other factors...making Indiana look better.  3rd, who would want to work 24/7 coddling and teaching and selling to young adults that are spoiled and just want to get into the NBA or get their names out there on social media?  And dealing with helicopter parents...yeah, no.  Oh, forgot...just recruit Indiana kids...that want to play at Indiana....yeah, sure.  Tey still exist and are athletic, smart, ballers?  Compete against the new Purdue or Notre Dame or next door to MSU, UM, OSU and UK?  Go for it.  Very attractive.  Success guaranteed.  Unlimited NIL.  Buy your way to competition.

Well Cignetti does it very well.  Comon.

Mark Few is a name I wouldn't have even considered, but after JY's post here we are.  One thing Few would bring is a history of attracting foreign players.  I've long wished we would tap that market and bring in players with euro/international experience.  Good fundamentals, size, and shooting without being corrupted by AAU type play.

FWIW, most of their foreign recruiting came from Tommy Lloyd. That well has dried up to some extent since he went to Arizona.

Sir it’s not 11 am so of course he wouldn’t be in to work yet.

Do you think it will be someone on this list?  It's a pretty good list.  I'd take most of them--key word is MOST, not ALL!      My Purdue Jockstrap label is gone!!!!
