Is it Woodson or the Players?
Hoosier4Life53 replied to Zville Hoosier's topic in General Basketball Discussion
Agree, considering they returned almost their entire roster, last year was probably worse for UNC than this year is for us, and yet they’ve turned it around this year. -

If you’re good enough and play to your potential, match ups shouldn’t matter. -

Great point, and there was a lot of chatter about firing Hubert last year in Tar Heel land. -
2024 F Liam McNeeley Decommits from Indiana
Hoosier4Life53 replied to Between2Halls's topic in General Basketball Discussion
And that’s why I say, give him one more year to see what he can do with a McNeeley, MgBacko and Reneau in the lineup together. Add a scoring guard, and we should be set. McNeeley can be a game changer, and I expect MgBacko to make the same kind of leap that Reneau did this year. If he can’t win and win big with those guys, then there’s no doubt it will be his last year. -
Is it Woodson or the Players?

It’s on Woody because we have talent, but it’s just not the right mix. Hard to imagine adding Sparks and Walker, and not adding a scoring guard. Hopefully, next year will be different. -
I’ll keep watching and supporting the team, but I can’t express how disappointing this season has been. We have some really good pieces, but are horrible as a team….12-21 at the FT line is inexcusable, and 66% for the season is horrendous. It’s not all on Woodson, but teaching basic fundamentals is a must, and right now we’re lacking in all areas. If we clean up our FT shooting, defensive rebounding and turnovers, we have a chance to be a really good next year with MgBacko, Reneau and McNeeley, but it all hinges on guard play, so the portal will be critical. We can’t swing and miss again on guards or next year will be a repeat of this season.

IU unveils its alternative jersey
Hoosier4Life53 replied to IU247's topic in General Basketball Discussion
I think God Awful would be more appropriate than Fear of God Athletics. -
Thanks, I needed a laugh….those uniforms are a train wreck.

Somebody tell me this isn’t for real…please!

You will once he gets over the hump! 🐪

Against Purdue Leal and Cupps played a combined 34 minutes, and were 0-3 from the field and scored 0 points. I’m not blaming them for the loss, but you can’t win with that type of production from your guards. They’re not even looking to score, and that’s not sustainable. Good or bad, at least when Gunn comes in you have to guard him, because he’s going to let it fly.

Good point
-
I think I came up with a solution to our shooting woes….lets move Sara Scalia over to the men’s team for the rest of the year. She’s shooting 89% from the FT line and 46% from 3… problem solved.

No real commentary on last night’s game other than we lost to a much better team, and by far the best team in the conference.

Coach Mike Woodson Megathread

You’re right…the scary thing is it could go either way. -

Haven’t we all done that? -
Coach Mike Woodson Megathread
Hoosier4Life53 replied to IU247's topic in General Basketball Discussion
My disclaimer was if we turn things around and we have a good year next year…so we’ll see. If not, next year will probably be his last, but I’m hoping it’s the opposite. -

Wisconsin loses by 22 at Rutgers…is that a bad loss or is Rutgers a little better than most think or both? -
Coach Mike Woodson Megathread
Hoosier4Life53 replied to IU247's topic in General Basketball Discussion
I’m 70 and I say he coaches another 3-5 years, if things get better next year. -
Man, we have way too much time on our hands.
-
Ok on Edey, but not a good look on Woody.
-
We’ll see….not predicting a win, but I have a feeling it’ll be closer than the game in our house.

That’s my point - a “5 star” indicates, but doesn’t guarantee a special player. -
That’s fair, but since he sits next to Woodson during the games that’s where the confusion comes into play regarding his role.
-
No disrespect meant, because he does have an impressive resume, but you have to admit he’s not engaged on the bench, so it’s fair to ask what his responsibilities are, and what his input is during the game, and what his role is during practice.
