    Look for X to be dismissed.0

    If he has not been dismissed by now I suspect he will not be. Maybe Woody has seen so much worse in the NBA his comparisons are different than some of us. I do think that if there is another issue, at some point he has to act to avoid the "if you are good enough nothing is bad enough" complaints.

    Al Durham...

    Good luck. Not one of my favorite players. Who knows why, but good luck. I would not have guessed him to be an nba player but there is good money in Europe and even USA development leagues.

    Payne Asks for release and gets it

    NIL is legal. We need to start coming up with some $ for recruits. During the big ten final last Sunday, I heard the announcer state that Caitlin Clark (Iowa ladies basketball player and some feel the best player in college) had an NIL at just over 1 million.

    Not nearly as confident about an at large...

    I do not follow some of the facts/history like others so my guess is uneducated. If we : beat Rutgers and Purdue we are in beat Rutgers, lose to PU and win two tournament games we are in beat Rutger, lose to PU and win one tournament game it is a maybe beat Rutgers, lose to PU and lose the...

    some observations with a depleted roster

    I agree with all except #7. I think JG has discipline, I just think he is that raw regarding a basketball IQ. This is further compounded by his becoming used to and understanding what his length, reach, and jumping ability can do.

    #6 IU Women Face #7 Michigan in Ann Arbor w/out Mackenzie Holmes @ 7;00 PM ESPN2

    Thanks for posting. We are not a deep team, rarely playing more than 7 and shallow at the big positions. Mac was likely our best player. Replacing 20 points and 9 rebounds per game will be a challenge. I expect more minutes from Grace W and Kaitland, but neither of them are scorers. As they say...

    Someone please tell me Rob turned his ankle

    Xray maybe but I doubt an MRI. MRIs are often literally run 24/7 and to have one at the stadium that sits empty I think would be unlikely.

    Props to CMW

    I have never met CMW. Likely most of us on the forum have not. But, to me, he really seems to be a genuine guy who has his players' best interest at heart. I can see him being the type of coach for whom a player "would run thru a brick wall".

    Do you think Race took down Ivey on purpose?

    I agree with this. I replied on a different thread that the look on Race's face immediately after made me feel (my interp only) that he knew he fouled in a way that might draw a flagrant or tech but he needed to stop the layup. I think he regretted how he fouled, not that he fouled. I also...

    Despite video replay, which sport do you believe is the most difficult to referee?

    I agree. I tape and then start about 60-90 minutes in. Lets me avoid the announcers and commercials.

    IUwbb

    Interesting. I too like Grace W. I heard Moren once say her strength was defense (by my memory). I think we need to play reserves much more in these larger wins. We are going to need them - covid, injury, foul trouble, etc. I would love to ask Moren the question, asking from a teach me the...

    Transfer Portal Offers/Visits

    Nice post. Anyone in there you like or think we can get?

    Penix in the Portal

    I mean no disrespect, but I am glad Penix is leaving. We give him first-team reps in practice and after a few games, he is done for the season. Both years Tuttle came in and was hurt. So we have to go with #3 and #4 who did not get the practice reps. I like the running of McCauley. I do not know...

    Positives

    Their shooting looked like NCAA last night

    Bench Rob

    I have no inside info, but this seems like it could be an issue. He still needs to feel like family - even if he is in the dog house now. Forgive, forget, stay together.

    IU -2.5

    Just based on records, it seems we should be more favored. I guess it is diluted as it is at Syracuse and our prior opponents are not deemed strong

    Bench Rob

    Very early to draw conclusions of course. Likely we can only discuss trends. I suspect Parker and Miller know they need to add a little more. All of the players are trying to do that. How many minutes does Trey get? 10-15? They may go to Lander. To me (I am not a coach), Bates and Geronimo are...

    NFL players

    Iowa is historically a good/solid football program. They weathered some trouble this past year and I suspect are again well-coached and ready to go. We will have to play well to win. I believe their QB was erratic last year, but, was a true freshman. A win for us would be huge.

    Defensive Front

    https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/iu-football-coaching-staff-demanding-more-from-defensive-front-in-2021/ One part I found interesting was the thinking that we need 10-12 guys to be able to rotate in. Do we go three deep?

    What’s the latest with Caleb Jones?

    I understand this is another level. But I sure would like to see what he could do if given a chance.
