Knew this was going to happen.

Where do we go from here? We seriously need to do soul searching. 0 recruits in the NIL age! Who wants to come to Indiana? What a disaster.

2024 was touted to be one of our greatest ever. What’s are ranking? Last?

Cant find the exact tweet, but I go back to Woodson's quote last year about getting Miller Kopp (the only reliable 3pt shooter on a bad shooting team) more shots/3's, and Woodson got defensive and said, "it's not my job to get Miller Kopp shots." 

To me almost a fireable offense right there for being so stupid, but as a shooter why in the hell would you ever agree to play for that coach?

"We" aren't.  Nobody gives a crap what we think.  If they did we would be talking about who is coaching the team next year.

Everyone just needs to stop sending money to these people.  The Simon's want to burn their wealth, have at it but they can't fill seats.  I also get tired of the "toxic fanbase" BS.  I will just stop caring IU and then all of you a-holes will have to find a real job to suck at making way less money than you do.  And I don't give a f--- if Dolson was overruled or whatever.  Every single person associated with this decision has got to go.  Every last one.  This was a stupid hire 3 years ago and they know it.  And they through another member of the family (Fife) under the bus 2 years ago so why should I give a flying f--- if we throw Woody under it.  I was in school with Dane, I never saw Woodson play a minute.  So why should I care if he gets unceremoniously tossed out the door and sh** on like he did to Fife?

Assembly Hall should be EMPTY next year.  If any of you attend a single game you are supporting the destruction of our  beloved Hoosiers.

Rabby has stated way different ways to why liam committed. HH’s are just taking the first thing they heard and running with it. 
 

style of play

no plays for threes

Publicly calling out MR

said concerns have been since November 

I believe this way more than the fanbase. Everyone says that IU doesn't shoot enough 3s and Woody disagrees then says college ball in played inside-out. Ugly, boring offense all season with lots of losses. 

Then the report above that after the commitment, Woodson stops recruiting him. I totally believe that.

This decommitment isn't unexpected to me.

Woody could be a complete d**k if he wanted to. If he doesn't release McNeeley from his LOI, he has to sit out a year. 

At least I think that's the case. 

That happened with Funderburke when I was in school. 

Wouldn't do Woody's reputation much good, but not sure what's left of that anyway. 

He can transfer without sitting out under the new rules.

Lawrence Funderburke? He was at IU then transferred, that is why he had to sit out a year.

Liam does need to get a release from the LOI, but it is rare for a coach/school to deny that. When they do, they get dragged in the media.

I didn't quite remember it correctly. 

Knight wouldn't let Funderburke out of his LOI, so I think he had to stay at IU and complete a certain amount of coursework -- which then made his release automatic.

Good grief…we’d honestly have more luck if Judge Smails was doing our recruiting…

No school is going to deny a request.  The PR damage it would do in the recruiting world would be terrible and just spiteful on the part of the school.

Knight did not release Funderburke. 

Little different, I suppose, since it was a transfer situation. But that was years ago, and Knight didn't particularly care about PR.

From that same article -- that's if the coach leaves. 

It's moot anyway, because Woody would be an idiot to not release him.

Funderburke transferred to O$U, I believe at the time the B1G had a rule that transfers within conference had to sit a year

Also says they don’t lose a year.  Just has to go a semester

What. A. Mess.


I predicted this a while ago. That family wants him to be on a winner. A top 10 team.

This was stated from the beginning.

Nothing that we promised them has happened since he recruited.

No Fland. No Queen. No other star players. Missing the tournament this year.

The hysterics can blame the fans if they want, but the facts above are why this feel apart. It was predicted from me from the beginning if we didn’t prove to be a winner and set up to be a winner it wasn’t going to happen.

FUDGE.
