Well.. if the worry would be is he going to split the gash open, again.

Not sure if Benter and Hehman will be healthy tonight for Brownstown tonight or not.

When are these opportunities? When XJ gets back we will get him some more shots, but maybe with JGs added offense, it will too.

Doesn't have to be an OT at the next level, though.

Yeah, these should be forfeits.

I do too, but.... if I'm Pickell or Shrews I'm not going into the land of the unknown just to move up SOME to a job like ND. If I'm them, I'm not leaving unless .... 1. I'm getting a big time pay increase 2. The current admin at my job suck 3. I get an offer from a CLEAR, borderline massive upgrade in program prestige or whatever. Let's say--- Michigan State or something opens up when Izzo is done. Something like that.

https://247sports.com/player/ransom-mcdermott-46129660/ Looks like we are hot and heavy with him. He has also pinned the tweet of his Indiana offer on his profile. (usually a very good sign)

607-- how much better legal guarding position does Trey need to be in for it to be a charge?

We didn't make many changes the last two games. A few wrinkles added offensively. Players play. Ours were better the last two.... and that is by far the biggest change, the players. Not pushing some magic button.

615 left in the game. We break the press beautifully and JG doesn't convert. Either get it to Kopp quicker, or a simple lob to TJD would work.. while being aware of someone taking a charge.

Right, the players should have been better. Period.

Michigan better hope we have an off game, then. We are DANGEROUS at home.

8th in SPT without our punter, elite cover SPT guy was hurt early on, and had to replace our K after week 1. Solid work by Bubba V and Co again.

ILL didn't get over 50 until 830 to in the game.

Cute flop by Mayer with 2mins to go in the first half on the hand off with JG.

Their bucket in transition with 750 to go in the first half is the type of s*** that needs to be better between JG and Bates. Jordan is still very unaware at times defensively. It cost us dearly in the B1G tourney last season. Zero reason we should be giving up that easy of a bucket in that situation.

Great post. Its just output based. Which is fine. Some enjoy the process. He isn't coaching any different, there were no magic buttons pressed. It's truly as simple as if we win, we played well... If we lose, we played poorly, for some.

Who on here (this board) came into IUBB fandom during the Crean years? Wasn't me. Wasn't @IUFLA or @RoadToZion

Agree, but that is because some chomp at the bit to make every loss a "big issue" and we have to read the state of the program posts after each loss, and then we get the posts attacking Woodson. Whether anyone wants to admit it our not, it was always going to take Woodson and staff longer than 1.5 years to turn this train wreck around.... so the fact some were absurdly over critical of him and others because we lost 3 games without 2 starters, yeah it annoys us. Woodson didn't push any magic buttons the last two games, our team played better and we executed. Added a couple wrinkles in the half court, and kicked the shit out of ILL in ATOs.

The only issue with the "whole picture" has been the injuries, if we're being honest.

Also.. Malik is starting to fill out. Shoulders, arms, and traps are starting to show clear definition. During the play where he should have had an And 1.... I thought it was pretty clear the work he is doing in the weightroom.

watching the game... after TJDs clear block that they called a foul on..... XJ for sure "reacts". He does, he then turns directly to the bench and sits down... which is exactly what he should do. XJ didn't make it any more demonstrative than any other player does. The official then goes TO HIM, literally walks 10ft OUT OF HIS WAY.... to get into XJs face, and then Ts him up, while XJ is sitting on the bench, in a F'ing boot. Unbelievable lol

Another false narrative

Why wouldn't they hire Michael Lewis? I wouldn't leave PSU if I were Shrews, not for ND, that is.
