    You can't bring Woodson back after this. He offered 32 players and got ZERO commits. 😳 

    He's losing at least 6 players as soon as the season ends. 

    You just can't do it. I don't care how it looks. No serious program/franchise/business would do so. You have to move on and YOU HAVE TO LET DOLSON DO HIS JOB.

    He will be back.

    I agree with this, but McNeeley really screwed us regardless of the reasoning. Not necessarily "blaming" him, but the timing couldn't be worse. 

     

    More of an overall tangent: 

    I also think our fans are a bit delusional. Knight made IU great not the other way around. When his coaching style became passé the program slowly lost it's prestige. The last really good coach we had was Sampson. Since then we've hired marginal to mediocre, to whatever happened to Archie coaches. The recruiting strategy has been especially poor as well when compared to a school like PU (the strategy IU should have been doing for the past 20 years). And it seems like quality of coaching candidates gets worse every year. Overall point, the expectations are a bit out of whack with where the program is today. Woody isn't and never was the long term answer. The hope was he could get the program in a good position to hand it off. This season for a number of reasons, has not gone well. But in reality it's about 2-3 wins away from accomplishing what Woody only needed to do, keep it in a net positive position. He made a lot of mistakes this year. But Pearl or whomever might make some mistakes too. We can't light the torches every time a season starts to go sideways regardless of the coach or players. That being said, it's nearly impossible to bring him back if everyone leaves. The next few weeks will be wild. 
     

    He will be back he won't  be let go hope that relives  your fears.

    I could see that. Painter isn’t one to pressure a guy to commit but with only one scholarship for ‘25, Sisley may feel like he doesn’t want to miss his chance to commit. Will be interesting to see. 

    Sisely to Purdue would be the likely destination after team we have put on the floor.

    I would bet Queen doesn't come for the reasons mentioned above. Woodson is going to drive Indiana right off the cliff and it will take a few years to recover from the mess. If I were a top talent I wouldn't give any consideration to playing for Indiana. Woodson sucks and in reality he won't be around in a couple of years. 

    Awesome!!We Suck!!!
