First, you guys are hilarious. Reading the pages I missed on a long travel day is great.  I guess I missed the chance to drop the bomb that coaches were informed yesterday that Woody is being ret

First thing's first, congrats to the IU women on the 4-seed and hosting opportunity. Tough draw, but they call it madness for a reason. Secondly, love you guys and this community, but goodness you're

The “compromise” by Dolson to let this go down this way saved us some good cash on the buyout. Lot of litigation today. Make no mistake about it, this was not Woody’s decision to retire.

He probably hit himself in the nuts while he was letting everyone know who his real identity is. 

Is that his identity or name on X “ScottDolsonBurner”?  I don’t get on X so I don’t know how names are.

Some of this may have already been posted so I apologize ahead of time if some of is repeated.

I got this from the ITH on 5 takeaways from last nights lose.

The 2 big lineup wasn’t going to work and Reneau should not of played that much.  Matter of fact, I think Reneau’s role should be just to come in to give Ballo a rest, at least until he gets close to 100%.  This was posted in one of the takeaways:

According to Synergy Sports, the numbers with both players on the floor were not encouraging. With Ballo and Reneau playing together, Indiana scored .53 points per possession. And defensively, the Hoosiers gave up 1.58 points per possession with the duo on the floor.

And this was posted in the last takeaway, which proves he has no clue what he is doing:

“What do you think is holding this team back, right now, from playing kinda cohesively for a full, you’ve talked about having stretches, but for a full 40 minutes?”   “I wish I knew. I’m still trying to figure it out,” Woodson said. “I know we got Malik back, and we knew we weren’t going to play him very many minutes tonight. But we had a hell of a defensive half, and then we come out and give up 54 points and we pile on the turnovers. I mean, it was just a bad combination. We just didn’t play well in the second half.”

Woodson was asked if he was concerned about IU’s lack of connectivity defensively at this stage of the season.  “No. I mean, you can never get worried,” Woodson said. “There’s too many games still left. We play a good game on the road and beat Ohio State, and then come here and got an opportunity to win a game and we let it get away the second half. You gotta give them credit. They played their butts off in the second half, and we didn’t.”

If I were Scott Dolson I would be ticked off if someone is using his name like that!

Ken Bikoff -

#IUBB has now given up at least 52 points in a half four times this year. Louisville (52), Gonzaga (57), Illinois (60), and Northwestern (54). IU has scored 50-plus points in a half just twice against Eastern Illinois (54) and Sam Houston (55).

Serious adjustments by the Coaching Staff at half (sarcasm). Let's be honest, Ya isn't cooking up adjustments at the half...ahhhh, thanks World Wide Wes.

Woodson’s refusal to adjust to a modern style of basketball has cost us numerous games. Chalk this one up as another. Malik and Ballo cannot be playing together.

I alluded to this on a pure guess in the game thread. All those numbers suck except the last def numbers. Ironically people want us to go small to score but it’s the only way we can defend. Woodys offense is not good but defense is a much larger issue. I’ll scream this to my grave.

When Rice referred to Woodson as a grandpa it was a sign of how this season would go. 

This may be more old school...but coaches need to strike a bit of fear into their players. Sitting them on the bench is a good start...If not, then you're liable of having the players run the program. Clearly, grandpa is a term, you wouldn't want for the coach coaching/managing your favorite team or school. Now father figure can be different, because father's instill discipline, grandpas? not so much. Of all the great managers, and coaches...Joe Torre, Bob Knight, Coach K, Scotty Bowman...etc, I'm pretty sure not one of them has ever been likened to a player's "Grandpa."

Fear is a tool of the weak-minded. Respect vs fear has a clear winner. No person needs to try and make someone fear them.

IU is 5-4  with 3 blowout losses against 8 of the 9 worst teams in the B1G  and ILL and are days away from playing 4 of the top 5. If you want to see ugly stick around for a few weeks.
I remember some trying to claim south Carolina and providence were good wins

South Carolina 0-6
Providence 3-5

He doesn't have a good win.
