Probably why he hasn't been a candidate at UofL Collins has done a good job at a very tough place to coach. Some were saying it was time to move on from him after the 2021-2022 season but then they made the tourney the next two years. Good for him. Rico and Chris007 2

Woodson is just brilliant and we are morons and this is all just a genius working the process. I cannot wait until November to see this brilliant new approach to basketball that Mike Woodson is working this offseason. We should be Big Ten favorites with our Top 5 salary and our ability to completely outbid people by not having money tied up in high schoolers. Expect to win the event in the Bahamas to start the year. These dumbasses pull this **** every summer. By the bar they are setting, anything less than 25 wins and the Sweet 16 should be viewed as a failure. Not only do the dumb@$$es pull this every year, but the bulk of the fans buy it until it goes up in flames. It really doesn't matter who Woodson is able to con into coming here for the NIL cash, he's still the coach and that says all I need to hear. thebigweave 1

OKHOOSIER Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 5 minutes ago, go iu bb said: IU has so far landed 0 players from the portal despite supposedly already having interest from some players before the season even ended and having a ton of money to spend. His explanation (excuse) is that IU will just have to "choose wisely," ignoring that they have 1/2 a team worth of scholarships to fill. At this point, IU doesn't have to be picky. Replying to you because I am not trying to platform this dude and you know he probably loves seeing his tweets regurgitated here. This whole "money others cant match" take is just so ludicrous it is hard to fathom. We need 7 players. All are going to need to be paid. A team like UNC or UK or Kansas does not need 7 players. Simple math says we could not have outbid Kansas for Dickinson as an example. He is worth "max money" on the open market in CBB, and he did not even do that, Kansas was not his highest offer, he took less money...To play for Bill Self on a good team. These teams have as much money as we do, and coaches who do not even need it in some cases. . The only players we are going to outbid for are ones the top of the pool are not going after. Anyone believing we could pay like 1.5m or more and outbid another high major basketball school is delusional. Hell, outside of the lottery, late first round rookie money is only around 2.5 a year. This is insanity. BannerVille, Rico, go iu bb and 3 others 6

ib4iu Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 Goodman just tweeted that Louisville is hiring Pat Kelsey from Charleston. Leaves an opening for us and Schertz. Maybe he waits for a bigger job than SLU. 8bucks, AZ Hoosier, BannerVille and 1 other 4

Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 We really should’ve fired Woodson and went with dusty. He would’ve been our floor in the coaching search. Whoever we get next year will almost certainly be worse, imo. thebigweave, IUCrazy2, DLG3 and 1 other 4

Not with your username that I've seen (easily could have missed that because just saw the account yesterday for the first time). To say he's gone fully off the deep end is a complete and total understatement. Big yikes. Chris has a stalker. Chris- Don't go straight home after work.

So hilarious "Hmmmm, almost like someone has been telling all of you to calm down, not believe the doom. To quit worrying. Now you are seeing ... some of it. More coming, chill." What exactly is it that we are "now seeing" because last I checked, we still have no recruits after our 5 star decommitted when we announced we were bringing our HC back. Dude is a complete and total joke, wannabe insider... he is 100% portraying himself that way. I used to like reading his posts but somewhere along the way he became way too combative. Sad to see his delusion spill over in so many ways... but he is sure pumped to have those 200 followers behind him! Hope he gets the help he needs. pumpfake, go iu bb, thebigweave and 2 others 5

It looks to me that a lot of posters have already forgotten how bad of a coach he is when you don't see it every other night. When is he going to start.

DLG3 Posted March 27, 2024 Posted March 27, 2024 Serious question…do you guys think if this coming season goes south that the next IU head coaching search will be as embarrassing as Louisville’s? Kelsey may turn out great, I don’t know. But the optics on the whole thing have been brutal for them. We all just want to think that anyone (Pearl, etc) would leave for the IU job, but my confidence in that gets lower by the day and by each failed season.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners thebigweave and 8bucks 2
