I agree about Dusty May. He might very well be one of our own, but that hire would scream Archie to me. Indiana needs someone who has credentials nationally, and who can both recruit high school stars and portal prospects alike. A couple of decent tournament runs at a place that doesn’t demand much won’t cut it… or at least I hope that ship has sailed.
-
Today marks the 12th time in 20 years that Indiana has missed out on the tournament. This isn’t particularly a Woodson knock, but a knock at how bad our coaching and administration have been in general. Give me a guy that will breathe fire into the program and give us consistency from a competitive standpoint.

Purdue feels like a lock for the Elite Eight. Auburn will make a run. Houston and UNC fall early. I feel like Indiana State should’ve made it over MSU, but in retrospect, I think MSU is going to give UNC fits in the round of 32.

I hate to keep beating a dead horse here, but even kids in the portal with multiple seasons left will likely decline IU, knowing that there’s a good chance Woodson is gone after next season. Why delay the inevitable? Bringing Woodson back sets the program back at least two additional seasons in my opinion. The only potential scenario that plays out is that Woodson adds one and done types via the portal, and potentially a kid or two that backs out of their current LOI due to a coaching change, players coming back etc.

We’re going to be looking for a new head coach in Madison. The juniors, or seniors to be next year is a big class of 6. At one point there were 14 in that class, but some transfers and natural attrition ran its course. Watching the Cubs not being able to get over the hump this season is a big part of why things didn’t work out. They lost 12 games by 8 or less, 9 games by 6 or less and actually had the lead in 8 of the 12 games with under 5 minutes left in each of the 8 respective games. Lots of tension at Madison, and some with unrealistic expectations. It’s clearly not what is used to be, and is no longer viewed as a great job…. hasn’t been in some time. But, they have a decent six man senior class coming in that should make them a tough group.

I like their chances. They’ve had a great run with this group.

Jason’s dad showed us the door back in the late 90’s. We were a very good team, but he was by far the best player on the floor. We went to the Seymour semi state, and watched Scottsburg get revenge on GC. Scottsburg did not sub one time… all five starters played every minute of the game. I’ve never seen that, but know that they only played six deep all year long. They’ll lose almost everything next season, but they’re making the most of it. I’d say BC and Scottsburg have a strong chance to win it in their respective classes. What a fantastic run by Jeff! They will be very, very good next season. I heard that the Washington kid might very well look to join Sherron and the Red Devils next season. That could be scary for the HHC!

I agree. Although we haven’t been consistently good in some time… IU is no longer, or I should say can no longer be a place to fully develop. IU, along with any other program that spends big money on players, will look for instant impact, whether it be from top tier high school players or the portal.
-
Going into the season, CJ’s development was going to be paramount in order for IU to have a successful year. I have watched from afar and don’t understand how Woodson hasn’t been able to help this young man. I was told multiple times heading into the new school year that the most improved player during the offseason was CJG. I mean, you can see the raw abilities, but he needs reps, and IU(now/portal era) is no longer in the development game.

I almost guarantee this post breaks the record… potentially 4K posts by next March!

I bet Bruce Pearl and Auburn go to the Final Four. Gut feeling….
-
Season, thankfully… is over.
-
They should, but they’ll probably turn their irrelevant nose up to it. The NIT was always good for young teams in the past, but the current landscape screams no, primarily due to constant roster turnover thanks to NIL and the portal.
-
Sigh… 🍻

No, but they’ve most likely took one.
