    I don't understand Woody at all in the last 8-12 minutes.  It is like there was no sense of urgency.  It was alluded to on the radio broadcast.  Time had become the enemy. 

    I should probably just shut up about him. Except for the occasional surprise, Indiana Football and Basketball as well as the coaching sucks. The future is bleak, not bright.

    Adios, my friends!

    i'm not sure what is more strange to me... the people saying fire Woodson or the people who declared when we were 3-0 that he had brought us back.

    I have always said and will continue to say he is not the answer. I wish he was because I am sick and tired of bull crap basketball and coaching.

    Indiana can do better but do any clue on how to do it?

    Doubtful!

    I hate how likeable Matt Painter is

    I was fortunate to ref a couple of his high school games at Delta High School. Painter loved Coach Knight, was good friends with Pat Knight and wanted to go to Indiana in the worst way. Our loss, Purdue's gain!

    Outstanding high school player!

    LOL what? Woodson got to the tournament last year with Archie's roster. Replaced players with a couple 5 stars. One of those 5 stars have hit a wall recently... He's been there a season and a half. Combine that with X injury and now Race? We've been ranked all season too.... Football I can agree on, basketball, no.

     

    PS Not disagreeing with Painter being the best in the state. 

    Coach, I am aware of that. I am just stating that I was not happy with his hiring and I don't think it will work in the long term. Yes, there was improvement and it has been good for the former players and school but he was average at best in the NBA and to me that is his ceiling at Indiana. 

    I hope I am wrong but if I am I will be the first one to step up and eat crow and admit that I was way off base. I hope I have to do that but I really don't think that I will.

    I will get killed for this but both are the type of guys that would have shined under CBK and are under Painter. I never thought Loyer would have this type of impact but I never doubted Smith.  

    Let's face it, Purdue is the best program in the state and has by far the best coach in the state. I wish he was coaching Indiana. Quite frankly Indiana football and basketball suck. I am not and never have been a Woodson or a Tom Allen fan. I can't wait till they are both gone so Indiana can start rebuild with a new coach. Shake my head at their program!

    How many of you remember these handbooks?  The local banks always handed them out to customers (My bank is not the one represented in picture).  I would spend hours reviewing these each year when they came out.

    If you've never seen one, click the link and flip through the pages.

    2001 was the last time the Vols won 11 games.  

    DeSean Bishop, Mr. Football in Tennessee the last two years who my son coached and mentored for 7 years committed to Tennessee a couple weeks ago. He was recruited by Purdue and Michigan State and originally committed to Coastal Carolina. The head coach left for another school so DeSean reopened his recruitment. 

    In his 4 year high school career he ran for over 8,000 years, including 5,592 yards and 64 touchdowns in his final two years. He is not only a great football player and an outstanding young man. I can't wait to see what he does in college.
