I have no idea on logistics, but I was told that Mullins was at the Tennessee/Alabama football game.
Anyone actually think we'll get Mullins?
- Thread starter Bippy
- Start date
That line of thinking is old fashion, along with believing he would have better opportunities here after basketball as a "hometown hero". It's not 1960 anymore...3-4 games a year on a tin-foil topped, rabbit-eared and fuzzy screened Ch 4 with Chesty potato chip commercials. What's staying home going to get him, a larger network as an insurance salesman? More home listings as a real estate agent? It's a smaller world now, getting smaller by the day with the speed of technology. He'll go where he has the best chance to demonstrate his basketball skills during the time allotted. Nothing else matters in this coddled world of today's athletes we choose to worship.
I'm hearing he was front row at Elvis performance in Vegas. This is getting confusing.
Buns up and kneeling, you don’t have to see his face, a total disgrace.
WTH! I think some of you should drop your season tickets in protest! 😃
Two five star kids in IU back yard. Ouch
I wasnt worried about Haralson, aka Kris Wilkes 2.0 but losing Mullins sucks..
Even Buckner won’t be able to sweep another underachieving season under the rug.
IU is a football school now. We haven’t been relevant in basketball for years. At least Purdue didn’t get any of these guys.
What a damning Indy Star article. This was a Hurley vs Walsh recruitment. Never mentioned Woodson once.
Our assistants are doing everything they can to keep us in the game. The head coach is lazy and can't close.
I'd love to be optimistic about this year, but you just know hell play two bigs a lot of the time. It's who he is.

It's really hard to support a staff that is awful. This is becoming Mike Davis all over again Greg Oden, Mike Conley, Deshawn Thomas, Sean May when Davis was coach all Indiana kids.
Congrats. Must take some of the sting out of our FB success
Disappointing only because it's an Indiana kid. Not the end of the world though. What it does is put more pressure on transfer portal success.
Now that this kid is off the board I will add I didn't care for some of the things his dad said over the past couple weeks. Too full of himself. Be proud of your kid but don't be arrogant.

In just five months a bright new era of IU basketball can begin. Old Man Woodson can go play golf and nap while IU hires a real head coach fully committed to the job.
100 percent could u imagine Bruce Pearl here or Chris Beard great recruiters and the NIL money wow...
Mike Woodson without the donors would be like Mike Davis without Bracey Wright, DJ White & Marco Killingsworth. If that makes any sense.
Davis > Woodson
Mullins did throw IU and Woodson under the bus big time. Hopefully he’s a one and done like Hurley promised
Dolson will get another shot to get the next hire right. Woody imho won’t get an extension. Will ride this contract out probably. (Even though that normally doesn’t happen)
I seriously doubt Dusty ever coaches at IU. Hes got too many things against him at Michigan.
Transfer rules at Michigan are hard to overcome. NIL isn’t great(for basketball). He’s playing with a different set of rules up there.
don't see that happening. I think they'll either do well enough to garner an extension (pretty minimal in my mind: top 4 and making the tourney), or Dolson will recognize CMW ain't the guy and make a power play and get him out.
I'm not sure of that statement either, I like his Michigan team, his recruiting is going just fine, they will compete! May does have a F4, Woodson never will!
I don't know what will happen, but I don't know how a coach can recruit '25 and especially '26 with a contract expiring in '26. Recruits are going to wonder who will be their coach after one or two years, and also why the coach they're committing to didn't get a new contract. It's messy.
Who needs great NIL? IU has great NIL??? How is it working? I think most players want to WIN! Michigan will be the surprise of the BT. From all indications May can build a team and coach! I think IU needs to spend more NIL on their football program.
I've never seen any NIL $ made public anywhere. As far as transfer rules, are you saying UM frowns on transfers? I do know May got a commitment from what many consider the #1 rated foreign player Goodman recently.
i think Dolson already knows it. The question is will he be allowed to.
They only take up to sophomore credits or graduate transfers. They have lost recruits because of this. They had a junior transfer from Stanford that lost almost all his credits but stayed anyway. The NIL for basketball is an afterthought compared to a lot of places.
