Who cares what that PUke thinks?
2 and 3 are all he's selling, not good basketball, development, and winning
Pretty sure I can guess why since I've seen some of Doyle's unhinged tweets.
covid shots. It's all doyel wrote about for about a year.
yes, we know you don't like him because of his skin color. we get it.
Just like the city of Minneapolis.
iF I'm a booster,I'm keeping my money until Woodson is gone and replaced with a competent coaching staff and head coach.
I thought more people would feel this way. But Simon and Cook are still full steam ahead on Woody. Wild!
and therein is the problem. This year no guards with a shot sank this team time and time again. I can't say that Galloway or Cupps are going to change that dynamic next year. Newton is sort of a wild card. Guess we will see how the rest of the portal period shakes out but if MM or MR leave then I don't see the core to build around being very strong.
Do you assume that the booster is paying the player with the ultimate goal of winning more games?
How bad does it suck that that's what we have to look forward to. Such a sad, sad place IU has earned itself into.
"Get your covid shot... get your booster covid shot... get your booster to your booster covid shot... get your booster to the booster to the other booster covid shot... or we'll come and take your job away, take your family away, take your future away... because you've made us all unsafe!" - The Animal Farm
You mean like Knight did when he became coach?
You make an excellent point - the boosters are now running the program. Probably have been for a while.
The thing that makes me both optimistic, and frustrated, is watching all these tournament games...NCAA and NIT. Basically every single team has at least 1 "stud" guard, that would immediately help our team out immensely.
Yes, and let’s not forget that coaching matters, too.
There are so many players in the portal that would help, I tend to think we scrap together a roster that will be on the edge of the tourney next year.
For sure it does. But why we haven't had a Robert Ford type of guard since Woody arrived? Its incredibly frustrating.
I’ve been thinking the same thing. The high school recruiting rating guys are mostly useless. There are so many good players out there now that makes it imperative that a college coaching staff has a keen eye for talent and who fits their playing style. And also that coaching staff HAS to have the communication skills to sell the program to these kids. The IU coaching staff seems to have little to none of those skills.
I'd like to see us get the Walker kid from EKU as he is a two year guy. Doesn't do us much good to get 6 grad transfers if Woody's gone after 1 year. I just assume that most everyone that would commit to us for 2 years at this point would have some Indiana connection.
Like business, you win on price and you lose on price but the most consistent and successful model of business is through relationships.
What’s this have to do with Doyel believing Woodson is a lame duck and portal guys are going to shy away and chose differently?
Someone asked why Doyel hates Rogers. I believe this is in response to that. (Although the op didn’t link it to that post.)
Why do Simon and Cook support Woody? Don't they want to win?
I don’t know — some combo of he is their friend, Quinn’s friend, and he is a RMK guy.
