For God sakes, leave Woodson and the team alone. They got thumped. Lot of turnovers, missed shots, and shitty defense. Good wake up call for this group. We'll be OK. I guess the requirements for this site is you have to be 45yo and above and have nothing else in your life to do than bitch at Woodson and the team......
Chill out....

Though I'd generally agree, as the habitual bitching tends to occur when there's no cause for it, losing by 28 to a rinky dink team ... well ... there's cause for it today.
You listed every reason to complain.
Same ole, same ole. Woodson is a mediocre coach at best. Thems the facts. He does less with more than any coach I’ve seen. His teams regularly have lots of turnovers, give up offensive rebound after offensive rebound to the opposition, play terrible defense, etc. Each season they will get into a “groove” for 2-4 games straight and correct those weaknesses, but they always go back to this shit basketball. A new coach can’t get to IU soon enough. Contrast his undisciplined teams with Cignetti’s highly disciplined team and it’s easy to see who the real coach is.
We've been saying "maybe they'll learn something" after games like this way too often for the past three seasons. The learning isn't happening.
Thank you for the advice. Spent the past 15 minutes chilling out and thinking good thoughts. It’s time to extend Woodson and make him a top-5 paid coach as he’s worthy of this.
I think OP needs to recognize that there's something of a trend at play (understatement) and it's not just a bad game that people are reacting to.
Man, I always want to be pragmatic about this but....
I care who Scott Dolson likes. I've had enough with the BoT and the donors -- they don't know shit.
Ha .
A fan and ticket buyer since 1975.
You must accept losing alot..
And yes fans have all the right to bitch and moan.
What world you living in ?
and who made you in charge? are you part of the staff 😂
Eh, same old shit. Shitty basketball. It will be another long season.
Not only did they give up 3 offensive rebounds on one trip down the floor… they literally gave up one rebound to a guy LAYING ON THE FLOOR. I sh!t you not.
Even I can see that it’s time for IU too move on
He took a garbage Auburn program and made them top 5. He’d be my pick.
Are you that guy that parades around down on the floor at games wearing a Woody hat? 🧢
I don’t mind they got beat it’s the way they got beat I give Louisville their due they out hustled us they played harder they out coached us they beat IU in every way possible I don’t mind IU getting beat is the way they got beat !!!!!!
Are you new here? Same shit gets bleated every game by some, win or lose. The only difference today is that it's actually warranted.
We lost to a new coach new system pretty much a rebuild unacceptable and it wasn't even close this is not Auburn, Purdue, or Uconn last season it's Lousville 8-24 last season..
I'm one of those old timers and I can tell you the old timers have years of experience watching quality basketball; including IU's heyday and multiple nat'l championships. My wife and I traveled to Atlanta last year to watch a game eerily similar to the game today; IU layed an egg in that game too. I could go back and pull up the posts suggesting the old timers chill after that game too; telling us to let the season play out. Well, the season is certainly young but the similarities are not . . . we've seen this over and over now. Still, I was more chill today watching IU basketball than I've been in years because I now expect these games to happen several times per year. Can the team turn it around? Sure, its possible but it would certainly have to be the team stepping it up because we've already witnessed the ceiling of Woodson's coaching ability.

This was Woodson's 23rd doubke digit loss. I'm sure it was finally the one that caused the light bulb to go off on how to get them over the hump.

Yeah, I have no doubt today will be the wake up call this team needed. It’s never happened to a Woodson team before, but today was the day!
Hell, I can’t remember that happening to an IU team ever, not just under Woodson.
But, anyway, you’ve got spirit!
er um, no. My hope was that Woodson would remember his days with Knight with a focus on preparation and fundementals. That is not what we got. We have to let this season play out (what other choice do we have) but if the results are the same or worse, the plug needs to be pulled.
You know when a team is being coached up and when they're not. There is no diving for balls, getting in rebound position, fighting off blocks....any real effort plays. Way too many jump shots that end in the shooter just falling backwards and running the opposite way he should. It's not missed assignments or bad luck, this team is NOT being coached. In ANY capacity. It's beyond obvious that the only thing carrying them is their talent and talent alone.
It's a bummer because I have sat with Woodson and had cigars and bourbon chatting for hours and I genuinely think he's a good guy. He loves IU....but I'll call a spade a spade and this isn't it.
