Getting pretty grim over there. I think reality has set in that Woody really isnt a good head coach fit for IU..

Makes me glad to have such stability here, its like a tale of two cities

Saw the name Beard tossed out there as a special assistant.

Thanks 4 the update...I was banned after the Kansas game. : )

 

[Gemini95]

Cool keep us posted.

Actually don't

 

[Wolegib]

I heard Santos could also coach basketball when not in Congress

 

[CoBo]

IU MBB has some key players injured and not playing. That is enough to throw many teams into a tailspin. Tough situation for a coach whose fan base expects instant miracles and easy glory.

Go Purdue!

Their fans still think we are in the 1970s and 80s.

Their fans are just huge basketball fans, they naturally care a lot, the problem being that while Purdue attracts the cooler heads in the state, IU seemingly attracts the hot head, blow hard, ego maniac types, and of course all the rural folks who don't hold back. The RMK legacy is a true faustian bargain.

I think losing decisively to NW at Assembly Hall is too much for them to take, injuries or no.

The BIG is tough. No weak sisters anymore. IU has some significant injury issues, and was not nearly as deep as they believed Just because you got the whole team back from last year… they were still the ninth place team. Why would you expect better results? The only counter that made sense is that the new guys like Hood-Shuffle Foot was going to take them to the front of the pack and correct all the short comings from the previous year. I think we learned from our experience last year that a single player, even a lottery pick, can’t do it alone.

 

[tjreese]

That would never fly at IU these days

and how long a span would "these days" cover?

 

[SIBoiler2]

The difference between IU and Purdue is that one has a system that develops players and the other recruits high level recruits expecting them to win championships without development.

Hood Schifino is a really good freshman point guard, but Braden Smith is better.

IU will bring Woodson back unless he leaves on his own. Next year might be challenging for them unless Hood Scafino returns, there’s a chance TJD tries to earn another million by returning, we’ll see, I’m seeing his name on draft boards.

Isn’t TJD out of eligibility? This is his bonus year, no?

 

[SIBoiler2]

Rumor has it that the NCAA is granting him 4 more years since he's never used his right hand at all thereby only really using up half his eligibility.

He has another year of eligibility available.....this is his fourth year playing.

 

[Emartin70287]

pretty sure Race will be done with his 6th year. Wild to think a fringe 5 star tjd would stay 5 years.

I suspect he will be coaching again someplace in the next year or two. Maybe we hope Woodson does just good enough for a couple of years?

They were fine with Bobby Knight when he was winning so this is not surprising.

Doubt they get rid of Woody until end of next year. They spent way too much firing Archie and hiring him and this would make them seem increasingly incompetent.

I am sure the pressure will ramp up if this collapse continues but not enough to fire him.

ummmm, only one of us is a land grant college?

 

[guidelinesa2]

I think it has more to do with the fact that IU is Indiana's flagship state school.

Imagine Indiana A&M being our school name.... thank God for John Purdue.

 

[IMSKRONG]

Yea we are pissed and disappointed. And rightfully so. I don't see us having a chance for a win until Minnesota. Will be 1-7 by then.

If Wohl is out for Whisky, they could maybe beat them especially as a home game.

On the other hand, good.

I dont get why you hired Woody, thatcwas never gonna work.

IU has to get back to basics, the Purdue approach, they can't just buy their way back to greatness. Just focus on playing good basketball and stop trying to win nattys. There are no shortcuts

 

[IMSKRONG]

We just lost to Northwestern at home. That's basically the same as Wisconsin without it's top player(s). Also Wisconsin is a great 3pt shooting team. Indiana refuses to even defend the 3pt line. They'll get blasted.

The idea of hiring him plus his "heir in waiting" wasn't a good idea.
