  1. Don’t disagree, but IU was more than happy to let the fairy tale hang out there in the media following Woodson’s hiring. Together with Matta, it smoothed over Woodson’s hiring, which was met with a lot of questions
  2. The challenge that IU and Woodson have is that a lot of fans see him as a transitory hire, not a long term solution, similar to Bill Guthridge taking over for Dean Smith. That’s why so many bought into Fife as the succession plan. What’s interesting looking back, is that Guthridge was only 59 when he took over, but only coached 3 years before retiring.
  3. But that’s where someone at IU needed to intervene and edit the release before it went out.
  4. True. He probably wears a shirt under his overalls
  5. That was always the flaw with his OK teams
  6. The Big Ten was deep, but not strong at the top. #9 IU split with IL, PU & #5 OSU. Could have swept PU & OSU. Lost two to WI, but should have at least split & could have swept WI. As flawed as IU was, a few bounces the other way & IU could have been near the top of the B1G.
  7. He gets the award of being the first poster I’ve ever blocked
  8. The player I’d want at center is Omoruyi at Rutgers. 6’11 athletic rim protector with great hands. But they don’t make many of those
  9. Agree, but it’s a tough thing. In a one game tourney scenario, you can swarm and deny a big man with smaller players, but in the B1G conference schedule, you are facing so many big guys. Can you do that without wearing your smaller players down?
  10. Trivia question: what team lost to the first 15 seed to go to the Elite 8
  11. 4-12, 6 TOs against St Peters. NBA scouts have to be excited
  12. Painter did a great job of shutting down Edey
  13. Got a nasty ankle sprain on that rubber floor they had in the late 70s
  14. Wow, I thought IU couldn’t shoot. Providence 7-35, 1-13,from three
  15. I don’t think they’ve looked good for a month or so
  16. They would need to really step up their 3 point shooting
