I had to re-read this a few times and forgive me......it somewhat feels cryptic. lol I read it as.... - He is ALL IN on winning NEXT YEAR ('24-'25) because he has to prove everyone wrong. - He doesn't care what the roster looks like AFTER next year, ('25-'26), because he will retire and/or won't be here.... JMO

.....What else do we have to look forward to now that the coaching situation has been decided, at least for next year? I was all for a change, but this is the reality right now. I am tired of being bitter and angry and need to move on. I was born and raised an IU fan, that will never change. I actually watched and enjoyed the entire game last night without my BP alarming my Apple Watch. I can only hope and pray that Woodson will rebuild a much better staff, retains key starters and lands some much needed players in the portal.

It's a forgone conclusion that we WILL lose players to the portal after the season is over. I will anticipate, most certainly Gunn and Banks will definitely transfer, Ware definitely leaving the for NBA. That leaves us with Galloway, Cupps, Mgbako, Reneau, Sparks and Newton. There has been a lot of chatter that many players want to leave. Currently, of these 6 remaining players, I feel Sparks is only that wouldn't leave. Since Woodson isn't leaving, and it appears that IU has been playing it's best basketball the last 3 games, will more stay? How many and who they will be? Will it change depending on how the remaining games play out?

What about this Tuesday meeting, still on or are we officially stuck with Woodson?😞

this....

I seriously had to check if it was home or away and what channel it was on....😔😵

I see you...🤐

Insert here.....?! lol

.....so now Buckner it in charge of hiring? I thought that was AD's job and Dolson's responsibility. lol (insert sarcasm here) It's starting to sound like Dolson is just a puppet and Buckner has taken IU prisoner.....

If it ends up going this way, I could see students and fans protesting, sort of like picketing..... That could get real ugly.

….yikes, I quickly read that as “AD ripping the band aid off balls…” Ouch! Dyslexia got in the way….lol

A line like that isn’t going to help his “shelf life”…..

…. on my way to the Seymour sectional tonight. It’s really a great time of year for everyone! My go to,….bag of pop corn and a Mountain Dew, everytime… lol

…if something like that has stirred the coaching staff to get out and watch HS bb, shame on them! Seriously, that is unacceptable and a huge red flag moving forward.

I get the feeling that Woodson's meeting didn't go as plan and Dolson said some things that sort of surprised him. I wouldn't be shocked if Coach Woodson went to Quinn to complain or "tell on him". lol....JMO

Good point DC...... It's sort of like this … Dolson says to Coach…. "Coach Woodson, you mentioned you're not going anywhere anytime soon..... Make me believe you, because right now, I'm not feeling it."

.....if you can't make it, you better d#mn well make sure you message the guy, wish him good luck and send an assistant in your place.

....also, how many times have coaches gone to watch games and found someone else that they didn't realize was out there or actually played better than they though? 😵🧐

....I was a huge advocate of Brayden Smith, Jack Benter and Kanon Catchings to IU. Those are the "ones IU seems to ALWAYS mess up on landing". JMO

....seems like teams like Northwestern, Penn State, Iowa and Wisconsin always has rosters like that......

I hate to be that guy, but it wouldn't surprise me that their 3 pt. shooting % goes up vs. us Sunday.....

…..and how many assistant coaches do we have, if the head coach can’t make it?🤔

....if true, one would think all assistant coaches would still be keeping their connections with players, to hopefully sway them to their potential new school, if/whenever that would happen. JMO

Does the dude in the letter jacket not realize how much Painter is totally ignoring him? lol I mean, the look on Painter's face says is all.
