We’re now 5-6 in conference and just starting to hit the toughest part of our schedule.

Nuff said.

FIRE MIKE WOODSON!

This roster under Dane Fife would be ranked, that's how bad of a coach Woodson is.

There’s video of Ballo skipping the handshake line walking straight to locker room. Can’t blame him. Played his butt off.

Looks like the players are finally learning something from Woodson. Way to go Woody!

Yep, this morning I’ve been thinking: you can lose some of these games. You don’t like it, but realistically, even good IU teams are losing to other good teams on the road some of the time.

the problem with under both Woody and Archie is that IU has too often lost these types of games most of the time, despite often having talent to justify better performance.

Ask yourself who are best defenders are.  I would guess Ballo on the interior and Leal on guards or wings.  Kaufman-Renn scored 23 points on 10/13 shooting.  Smith scored 24 on 11/21 shooting with 7 assists.  We spent all that NIL money putting together a team and Woodson didn't get an athletic player that was a defensive stopper type.  Very poor planning.

It really could not have worked out better for Purdue….they win and save Woody’s job in the process!

You mean Goode didn’t steer him back into the line? ( need to be able to use emojis)
