somehow they all ended up in Brazil…

It's a destination spot.  Rio.  Topless beaches.  The Amazon River Basin.  

It's becoming clear to me that IU should have hired one of us to coach.  We are so much smarter.

You're missing the point.  This guy is a 'shock' reporter.  Dakich without any IU ties.  He has zero credibility.  I will continue to form opinions on my own, and not stoop to basing my opinion on what someone else says.  Keep in mind, the media thought Archie was a GREAT hire, and we saw how that worked out.

Woody isn't lasting 6-8 years if he's not making tourneys. This year is a no. Next year, yikes.

I think he may have been a place holder hire because Dolson whiffed on everybody else. If not, then I agree with Aaron Torres in that was just an embarrassing. 'we've given up on the program' hire.

I know when I want the scoop, I always tune into Aaron Torres.  

By the way, who the 'F' is Aaron Torres.  

What we need to upgrade above all else next season is our win total.

Sucks. absolutely sucks 

Since the NFL / AFL merger in 1970, Mitch Trubisky is the only QB to start 50+ games without having thrown a Pick 6. 

Dude is a legend.

You're lying...there's no such thing as a Rutgers fan......

Seriously.  The guy lives and works in Jersey.  He's the only Rutgers fan I have ever met.

Anyone else think Edey looks like Purdue Pete?

We're #1!

I remember there was a recruiting class back then with Rob Turner, and Monti Mancini? Both of them never played for IU and thought Hodgson was in that class as well.

Only real programs bring in 30,000 a game.

We could sell half-game tickets.  Clear the arena at halftime and let a new group come in.

Not specific to this year's tourney, but I have a question.  I went to the first 4 Big Ten Tournaments ever.  One with my best friend and the other three with my brother.  Watched every second of every game all 4 years.    I've not been to one since.  But, my son is a Senior in high school this year and I'm hoping at some point in the next couple of years, his college spring break falls on BTT week.  

My question is this.  Does anyone know how difficult it is to get tickets if you are not a season ticket holder?  When I went to the first 4 tournaments, I was getting them through a co-worker who was a season ticket holder.  That's been a long time ago, so I don't know how available they are to the general public.  And, is it more difficult to get tickets when the tournament is in Indy vs Chicago?   

Anyone else ever notice that marine life is more active after an IU loss?  Weird.  

Didn't hear this one on the commute today, but it kind of sums up how I feel after last night's game.  It goes into a one-time special category called IU vs Rutgers

Sad, program in a shambles!Maybe just shut it down completely.

Yep, let's do that.  The basketball program does nothing for the University.

Pitino had Iona going after one year. We just need a special coach. Not a feel good coach. 

We still haven't hired a decent coach Knight was fired. Not one.

Kelvin Sampson is a helluva basketball coach.

Saw on ESPN scroll that Patrick Ewing got a vote of confidence from the AD and they are behind Ewing. 

Ewing just not a good fit for Georgetown.  He's better suited to coach a school like Purdue.

Right, I get really tired of people disparaging the football team saying that the covid year was a fluke. What do we call the year before that then?

2019?

I don't know...I listened to Dakich about 2 weeks ago after one of the 5 losses in a row, and he blistered the staff and the players...said it was the worst coaching he'd ever seen while watching IU basketball...

Now, I know Dakich wants listeners, and part of that is inciting his audience, but I'm pretty sure Coach Woodson isn't going to stand for some yokel saying stuff like that...

 

 

He must not have seen himself when he was coaching IU basketball.

Hulls needs much more of a check mark, as well. 

I thought maybe Watford deserves another as well,  but I've always seemed to appreciate him more than other people do.  He wasn't just a shooter.  He was solid on the boards as well.

The talent level on the roster isn't anywhere near good enough.  Side by side comparison of 2012-2013 roster with 2021-2022 roster.  Spoiler alert, it's not close. 

PG: Yogi ✅️ vs Johnson

SG/wing: Hulls ✅️ vs Stewart

SF/wing: Oladipo ✅️✅️✅️ vs Kopp

PF/wing: Watford ✅️ vs Race (this is close)

C/post: Zeller ✅️✅️ vs TJD

Bench: Sheehey/Elston/Abell ✅️ vs Phinisee/Galloway/Geronimo

Is there a 3 checkmark limit?  Otherwise you need to add more checks to Oladipo.

I will also quibble with the FRESHMAN version of Yogi over XJ.  Senior version Yogi over XJ, I agree.  But not freshman Yogi.
