As a lifelong fan who fell in love with IU basketball during the Vern Payne, Bill DeHeer, Butch Joyner and later Joe Cooke and Bootsy White - black and white, snowy TV days - I am in shock at how I feel today. This team has totally (maybe irreversibly) destroyed any passion I had for the program. Woody seems like a pretty nice guy in most of his pressers, but he clearly has no clue what he's gotten himself into. Continually singling out the seniors as the biggest problem on the team is a horrible optic and flat out wrong. The seniors are what they are. Modestly talented players with no clear direction from the bench. Woody's lifetime of built up good will in Hoosier Nation is being sullied more and more daily.
It's all just sad to me what we've become.
