[BehindTheBench 1,433]

Soooo, with the season over and March Madness dreams gone, can we officially say the king has left the building?

Do you guys notice how almost every team's players looks like they have been in the weight room compared to us except maybe Gallo.

I wouldn’t be so sure about the contractually obligated part.  SI reached out to the crown organizers because it’s unclear….could just mean that they contractually obligated to play in the crown over playing in the NIT.  The crown is a horrible idea and I think they are about to find that out.  Tons of players won’t play in it.

I really don't know how they're going to field that thing. There's going to be a ton of walk-ons playing. They almost have to make it an NIL tourney if they insist on keeping it.

Not that it really matters, but I think Oregon beats Michigan State tomorrow!

Post Game with Fish:  Continue to get to know the assistant coaches.

IU men’s basketball is a pay to play program both, coaching and players.

I commented on that early in the year because IU players have played like an out of basketball shape team throughout the year.  Physically and mentally.

Honestly...doesn't matter if we make it or not. Best case we're in the play in game...Woodson probably still thinks it's a successful season LOL.

How about the season Kannan Carlyle put together I mean come on !? haha 

I remember getting lectured by peegesters last spring when IU emphasized him in the portal over Ryan Conwell from Indiana State LOL . Money well spent !

Nothing short of disastrous...and he earned a very pretty penny while being here. Not sure who scouts these guys but that was a miss. I can't imagine any situation where he would be on the team next year. Honestly, we might just need to do a complete overhaul.

At least Woodson made it to the end of the game.  Baby steps

He’s not a very smart player. He needs coached. Hard. He definitely didn’t get that here.  
 

I’d probably puke if someone told me definitively what he made this year.

Oh look, a double digit tournament loss. Shocking.

[BBTB 65]

So  if its the crown  dear God tell me it will be with a new coach ,seriously  we cannot make it till April

Woodson isn't coaching in a postseason tournament that isn't the NCAA Tournament imo. 

[TTT 1,230]

Should this game count?  IU men’s basketball ousted in the first game of big ten tournament 15 of 27 years.  
Bob Knight had his reason in saying he didn’t like the big ten tournament following regular season championship and standings.

Very possible with even a regular game from the Ducks I think.

Last time they played, Oregon was up 14 at the half in Breslin. Granted, that was right after MSU came home from a west coast trip.
