Would be nice, he scores pretty easily on anyone would be a great 6th man option 

I think everyone agrees.  You bring him off the bench to generate offense but I don’t think he’s a good defender.  Personally, MW isn’t going to do that because he’s so dead set in starting both bigs

Carlyle continues to be a head scratcher…

He was way overrated in the portal.  Most of his miss aren’t even close, maybe he needs glasses!

The two bigs experiment has been debunked. Now, who comes off the bench? Ballo played well and the offense ran smoother without Reneau clogging possessions.

Reneau is a black hole, IMO.

That IU team tonight is not the one that I have grown accustomed to Woody putting out there.

In the grand scheme of things, a hard play, execution and win is all IU fan want. I am happy for that, but it also complicates things too and that doesn’t make me happy.

That win last night changes nothing.  Woody is gone after this season ends.

Rutger was 85 in NET coming in so it's only a quad 3 win.  However, if they finish the season at 75 or better it would go to a quad 2 and given that they are young and likely to get better as the year goes on I wouldn't be surprised that it will end up being a quad 2.

That is doubtful they are not very good. They lost to princeton and Kennesaw state. They have two good players but that's about it.

Nobody serious thinks a win over a bad Rutgers team missing their best player at home changes anything. 

They played well, but he needs something better than a quad 3 win at home to save his job.

Kinda crazy how this site gets excited/worried, depending on your perspective, after a quad 3 win, against a bad team, missing their leading scorer, assist man and 2nd steal man.

 

IU has done nothing more than beat very possibly the 2 worst B1G teams at home.

Then "some" are wrong.

I'm kinda curious as to where these "some" are found. I don't see them.

The guys on twitter do. But they have always had pretty low expectations regarding iu.

You can disregard the Woodson twitter stans. I stopped using his name on twitter after I was called racist for criticizing him there, which tells you all you need to know.

I'm guessing Twitter. 

 

I finally caved and put him on ignore. Hate to do that to anybody, but comments like that are just trolling.

Minnesota lost by 20 at home last night to purdue. I was watching some of it. They are god awful and they may not win a big ten game imo.

Whoever scouted Carlyle should be fired. What a terrible signing. Dude is absolute trash. 

Cool it- he may not be playing to your standards, but calling a freaking kid (that chose to play for IU) "absolute trash" is simply uncalled for and classless

The "some" people are usually found lurking with the "experts" and "according to my own research" crowd lol

Yeah, in order to make any progress he's going to need to beat currently ranked IL, UCLA and Purdue at home as well as steel a couple on the road.  Penn State is next up.
