don't have any incoming class. Woodson needs to get off his old fat as* and recruit.
F*ing Embarrassing that we
- Thread starter IUFan4Lifer
- Start date
You don’t sound like a true fan.
I find this fact absolutely stupefying. Has this every happened in the history of our program?
I suppose he could sign a spring freshman (like we did MM) who rescinds his commitment to another program.
Has this (is this) happening to another program?
Amateur hour in Bloomington.
Woodson gets his money whether he recruits or wins. He celebrates losses with a glass of wine and a cigar..
Mike Woodson doesnt go to recurits they come to Mike Woodson!
If a High School kid wants to be recruited by Mike Woodson, he needs to get on a plane and come to Mike Woodson.
Woody is lazy in the recruiting trail. Well known among Indiana coaches
He has signed a spring decommit every year. That doesn't mean he will this year, but there is a pattern there
In August 92, they only had one recruit, Malcolm Simms who was Ohio Player of the Year. In December, after playing scant few minutes, he left the program.
The only thing embarrassing is 68 teams make the tournament.
68!
And we weren't even close.
68!
And we weren't even close.
Why the 25 and 26 hs classes are dead for IU as long as woodson is around.
Depends on the recruit. Reneau and Mgbako turned out decent. Bates, perhaps not.
Is he going to import a lot of Italians like on the movie Kicking and Screaming?
Now that's some research......If I remember , he was 6'4"? He seemed like a prospect at the time.
Maybe it will be Liam McNeeley. Would be a good spring pickup.
To be fair... there are only 32 at large bids. So that is 33 chances IU has to make the tourney and still didn't.
Yes, Sims took the only available scholarship that year as the team had a few guards ahead of him who, unlike the current group of guards, could actually play and shoot…Greg Graham, Pat Graham, Damon Bailey and Todd Leary come to mind. And a “pretty good” 3 man in Calbert Cheaney too.
Sims went to Cleveland State and played for former UM Assistant, Mike Boyd.
I've heard the new theory is that recruiting HS players is too much of a gamble. Let them go to a smaller school, prove themselves there, and then get them via the portal.
Seems to be our MO right now.
IU basketball is now "non-developmental"......its about renting players for a one year stint. "Churn 'em and burn 'em, baby"........maybe we get lucky on a given year. If not......just wait....next year we'll hit the motherload!.....
The scene when all the kids are covered in blood and the other team forfeited. Lol
... not necessarily, failure to perform material duties like say, recruiting, might be a for cause firing. he's definitely flirting with it based on reasonable expectations (his own words mostly) ... his annual review should be a blast, they can just do it while golfing. f both of them if he is indeed back, which i doubt can be justified on any level other than corruption/personal interest grounds, which would also be conflict of interest on iu grounds ... for cause
Pretty sure Knight didn’t have 7 open scholarships at that point in time.
That might have been the year when the NCAA went from 15 scholarships to 13.
Yep. Also IU was preseason #4 in America and coming off a Final Four with a pretty decent coach!!! Woodson will never reach these areas.
