I say boo away!  These are players who are making money at our expense, boo away!!!  Also, boo MW for having them unprepared and uninspired 

Making money at OUR expense? LOL

If, on the other hand, you are the guy bankrolling Ballo I apologize.

Really? COULD… I hope I’m wrong. I think we’re gonna be embarrassed again.

I think many of us are chipping in!  It doesn’t matter how much we are contributing but we are nonetheless!  To me it doesn’t matter if it’s a dollar or $100, we are contributing.  
For example, those IU floating head posters used to be free, now they are $12.99, yes at everyone’s expense!  I have an IU license plate, the price has went up, yes at everyone’s expense!  lol to you too!

Will Woodson start hearing boos at AH if he doesn’t start changing things? I mean, millions of dollars have been spent with little to no progress in 4 years.

The people who funded this got exactly what they paid for: high priced players and a coach who thinks he is way better than he is. And, allowing their egos and his to be higher priority than the program.

How much would we have to pay Quinn to do an intervention?

Are you saying our 28 pt loss, that was close to 40 pts before a late run on their walk-ons, is the same as a close hard fought game?

Anyone can get hot and win on any day. Close games and losing will happen…that’s the game. But getting absolutely embarrassed on neutral courts year in, year out…

No.  What I am saying is a "rebuilding" program with a new coach ended up taking down the number 3 team and looked pretty good doing it.  We are on year four and still suck.

Yep they got what they paid for

The real question about tomorrow's game is this. Which team/coaching staff do you trust more to come out pi**ed off and looking to rebound in a big way after having lost the day before? 

If your answer is anything but Gonzaga, you may be suffering symptoms of a stroke and need immediate medical assistance

What do you mean by mental gymnastics?  Example?

Mental gymnastics is just a phrase used to describe how some people will make unreasonable excuses/justifications to support their position. All to avoid admitting that they were wrong.  
 

As for the example…. I mentioned I was looking forward to see some. But one example from the past would be certain individuals who blamed our ability to recruit was due to the fans who say mean things about Mike Woodson on Twitter. 
 

Another would be that Mike Woodson hasn’t been able to play a more uptempo style of offense bc he hasn’t had the guards. 
 

There’s more than a handful of these examples.

All arguments in favor of Mike Woodson being a good coach, are completely subjective. 
 

Objectively, Mike Woodson is not a winning coach.

Anybody know how much it would cost to send a couple of pallets of moving boxes to somebody's house?

A lot…they were all conference last year. Blame Woodson…it’s his idiotic ancient scheme of force feeding the post every possession. We saw what a modern day offense (Louisville) looks like and it’s not good for us.

Wondering if @Chris007 created an alt twitter/X account to track the whereabouts of Thyme.   

I see that Tyme dude posting on X in his condescending way that the players were tired because they are over-trained or some chit like that.

Depends on how much TG won at the table the night before

Interesting article from The Daily Hoosier who have defended Woodson in the past:

I run a local trucking company. You provide the pallets and boxes, I’ll get it there.

Gotcha!!!  You are right, MW is not a winning coach, nor is he a good coach!  He underachieves and underperforms as a head coach and that is passed on to his team
