Has he shown any real development? What little i saw of him this year, he pretty much looked the same as he did when he arrived at Turdue.

Crazy if true.

This is the last time I address you on this or any other subject. Consider this season: https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/schools/memphis/men/2024-schedule.html I see a weak finish and a soft schedule. Penny managed to beat Vanderbilt at home by a bucket. Congratulations. Peaked at #10 and finished the season unranked with no tournament invite. This is not a first for Penny despite getting some lottery-caliber commits. He's gotten 2 tournament invites in six seasons and gone 1-2. No one ever said he couldn't recruit talent. On the contrary...he gets plenty of talent and he's had seven NBA players in his six years at Memphis. Unfortunately, he's not accomplished much with all of that talent. If I'm a player looking for growth, development and team success, I'm not choosing Penny Hardaway. ...and with that, I'm done. If you don't like my hot takes, you're free to ignore them. Since this is a portal thread, I'll leave it at that.

Would you be happy with that in the AAC? He gets a lot of talent, but IMO, consistently underperforms that talent pool.

Penny recruits a lot of talent...never seems to do much with it to be honest. Yes, I looked at his record and his body of work. Considering he plays in the AAC and gets a lot of talent, no...I'm not impressed with what he's accomplished. His approach looks a lot like the old AAU roll the ball out and let em play. I don't see much coaching or developing.

It's probably just a sign that dad is a sh*tty coach.

Me neither. Unless I'm missing something, Bryson Tucker appears to be just as good a signee. Need more numbers, but that swap doesn't appear to damage IU's prospects.

Seton Hall, right?

Meh. He's no LeDad.

This is an instant classic that deserves to be quoted and brought forward in the feed regularly. Some Purdue grad anxiously waiting at home...

That's almost irrelevant. He knew Dusty was hired before he chose K-State. Now if Dusty chose not to try to retain him that's another story...

I hate what college basketball has become...hate it, hate it hate it.

I'm behind...is she leaving?

It's unfortunately what we do around here...

In college so long he's gone senile?

This might be the most exhausting thread ever created on HSN. 226 pages of this? No one can say Hoosier Nation doesn't care. I'll say this once more...the problem with IU basketball goes way beyond Mike Woodson. I don't know if Woodson is the answer or not. I simply don't believe that hiring any particular coach fixes what's wrong with IU basketball...or IU for that matter.

Looks like Iowa ladies are going to get their revenge against LSU. Clark has just been nuts. I think she's hit 9 threes

I wouldn't go that far either. This fan base isn't objective enough to make that call and Woodson's record doesn't indicate a bad coach. The players don't give that feedback either. Trayce Jackson Davis and Kel'el Ware would likely have a very different take.

Absolutely silly how badly fans overreact. Same thing applies to Woodson being the worst coach ever. He's a long way from Kenny Payne.

Go away. Don't you have some losing to do?

Right now, that's a real concern...rain too. It is what it is I guess...

My house is about half a mile from dead center of the totality path so we're hosting a field party complete with snacks, drinks and eclipse music. Even getting a couple of nice portable toilets with powered sinks delivered next Wednesday. According to the location website on my phone, we should be in total mode for 4 minutes and 4 seconds. Best part is, I get to stay home.
