I don’t think it’s quite the same as what you’re describing. And there are coaches older than Woodson who wouldn’t forget something due to age. I don’t think it’s too extreme to say if someone starts showing signs of mental decline they shouldn’t be leading things anymore. I’m not convinced that’s what is at play here with Woodson at all, but if that’s what you think I’m not sure why you’d think he’s best suited for the job.

I know, I was just being sarcastic. But honestly, if they spent a week preparing for Nebraska, Woodson shouldn’t have forgotten Tominaga’s name. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poetry in motion! Needed that to wash away taste of Rutgers rock fight Did you watch the bench…those Huskers are a tight bunch I’d take some of their less-“athletically” talented guys which have good BB IQ’, rather than guys more interested in looping slam dunks. That translates to 6yr senior leaders that grab nuts. 🥜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominaga’s name should’ve been engrained in his head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13th&Jackson Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Good example of coaching: Hummel just said Battle has more offensive rebounds so far this year than he had in two seasons at MN because Holtmann challenged him on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnet550 Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 I wonder if Conner Essegian thinks about the portal…his minutes have decreased…if he did and you brought him back to Indiana…paired with McNeely, and maybe MM stays…shooting problems should be fixed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re obviously free to post whatever you like within the rules, but what’s your goal here? To start an argument? We suck, and people that care are angry and tired of it. If you don’t want to vent on here, then don’t. But you really think any of us have anything to do with where the program is today or “tearing it down” any further. Indiana University is lucky it has as many fans that still care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, that’s the attitude a fan base should have? We suck , so let’s pile on? I’m tired of it and I am gonna let the world know about it? Not sure how old you are, but have you ever worked through tough times?
