    Glad we got the win after the Alabama Fiasco. Haven’t look much in Arizona, but I saw they took Alabama to the woodshed.

    Alabama beat Arizona. But Arizona is taking us to the woodshed today, 11-1 after a 10 run 4th inning.

    I just feel like Maryland isn’t that great even with us on the road.  But we are bad on the road with some bad losses so maybe I get it.  I just don’t think Maryland calls for us to be 8.5-9 point dogs.

    Same here. I think they are about the same level as us. I'd give them the edge being at home, but not at that kind of margin.

    First thought is major red flag.  Second thought is will he do a private one for individual teams?

    He is going to submit to medical exams for the teams he visits with. Apparently he does not want to turn his head and cough 32 times while in Indy. After looking into it more, I don't see the big deal. It seems a little over the top that these guys normally get exams from every single team? Why not just one exam by a NFL approved medical staff?

    This morning my weather app was showing snow flurries now it’s almost 60• I guess the old adage ‘if you don’t like the weather just wait’ works in several places?

    It was 67 here yesterday, today 25 with a wind chill of 9 and flurries.

    And then was complaining about the foul or something. I never understand that kids reactions lol

    Seemed like Malik thought someone from our bench was telling him to foul since we had fouls to give. At least, that is the interpretation I heard from a couple of podcasts.

    message boards were around in 96??? Did you have to dial in on AOL?

    The wild west days of the internet when you didn't have to even register to use a chat or message board. I remember using the computer lab at Teter-Boisen to post, lol. The original Star News boards, Big Ten official site had message boards back then, the Independent Indiana Basketball Forum (IIBF) which I think is where Peegs was at before he started his own deal.

  7. ESPN matchup predictor has Wisconsin at 73% to win.

    So let's suspend belief for a moment; what is IU's path to victory in this game? Above average 3 point and free throw shooting? Some semblance of defense? Wisconsin team bus getting lost on the way to Assembly Hall?

    Shared this via PM with a poster, but figured I'd share here too. 

    We have some posters that are more pro-coach than others, meaning they prefer to give coaches more time to turn things around and don't love the constant coaching turnover. 

    I used to lean more that way. I defended Crean and Archie longer than many did. If I remember, I don't think I was "fire Archie" until February of his last season. 

    So, why am I quicker to the "fire Woodson" bandwagon? You'd think an IU guy should get more leeway, right? Especially since he got us to B2B tournaments. 

    Two main reasons. 1) I'm just tired of being mediocre. I'm tired of losing, etc., but...

    2) I feel with Woodson we've had a bit of a bait and switch on his system/style. I just don't trust him to turn it around. 

    I didn't love Archie's system either. But Archie owned his system. We knew what it was and what we were getting, so I had a sense that if "he could just get 'his' guys" in his system we'd be OK. 

    Crean had a system too. It had its flaws as well, but he had some proven success with it, and we knew when recruited too right we could win. 

    My opinion is that Woodson hasn't been upfront (I'd don't mean purposely lying or anything) with what his system or style is. I'm not sure he knows what it is. 

    So, without college experience and some of the other trends and issues, I frankly just don't trust him to turn this around. 

    I'm ready for a change and think it needs to happen this offseason. 

    Yeah he has lost my trust as well.
