Are you a Dayton fan, or just from Dayton?

Big Archie fan while he was in Dayton.  He was not in my short list to be hired by IU.  I was shocked.  Wondered if he could make it in the pressure cooker of IU.  Could he recruit?  He did motivate his team in Dayton to play like a team.  The sum was greater than the parts.

He did not get the support at IU from the administration that Coach Woody got.

Archie could not get his arms around the individuals that he got stuck with at IU.  Some of the players did not want to work hard on defense.  They did not get assists.  The point guards could not get the ball into play.  No one moved.

The administration did not help.  

Archie had to go.  For whatever reason.  It was totally phukd.  

Some of the same problems are experienced since Woody got here.  But Woody had TJD.  But now some of the team does not want to be here or work.  Woody has refused to get that corrected until just a few later games in the 2nd half.  Can't get some bigs clogging up the inside at the detriment of a fluid offense and great defense.

PS.  No I'm not just from Dayton.  I graduated from IU when we went undefeated.  My whole immediate family loves IU.  Am from Evansville Bosse.  But I have been around.  After going to IU/Business...also went to Wisconsin...still cheering for IU at each game.

Nice. Sucks about going to Wisconsin though.  Just kidding (the campus is beautiful) but growing up as an IU fan I lived in Milwaukee from ages 9-18, so Wisconsin is on par with Purdue for me for my most hated rival team.  (Ironically enough, IU also took a coach from a local team while I lived in Milwaukee)

Currently live in Evansville myself (but didn't move here until after college)

Also went to IU, my senior year was 2012-2013, so I really thought I had a chance to experience a NC while attending (and then Syracuse happened). 

Here's to hoping the next guy can get it going.
