Healthy Culture Under Mike Woodson

[Pryght]

Based on the fact that our best players are returning, even when there is going to be (potentially) fierce competition at several positions, suggests there is a healthy culture within the basketball program.

That picture. They didn’t win that game.

The team played hard all year for their teammates, themselves, and Coach Woodson.

Next year will be better … the returning players know the culture ropes.

I did not think it was much of an article. It had just one point; essentially that Woodson is not an ogre.
I think we knew that from his 20 plus years as a coach in the NBA.
He may be stern, stress accountability, etc, but well short of physical or mental abuse.

Still waiting on any more word about Xavier’s indiscretions

I’d be shocked if it is even a topic come the season. 🧹 under rug

Indiana fans have to remember Woody dealt with Latrell Spreewell, Josh Smith..... This is not a big deal.

As long as the legal side of things is handled quietly and the judge doesn't take an interest in making an example out of him, it won't be a big deal.

There is no more word on XJ, he's on the team and will be for the foreseeable future.

Outsite of that it's just a bunch of bs people make up so they can play the holier than thou card and bitch about a coach they never wanted to give a chance in the first place.

And rightfully so

The BS is coming from you. I’ve been in Woody’s corner since he was hired but I’m disappointed that Xavier was retained and will lose some respect if there are no disciplinary measures taken at all.

And there might very well be "disciplinary measures taken" that no one is aware of.
With the NU incident as a reference, either you have faith in CMW doing the right thing or you don't.

 

[8Stars5Banners]

Just to clarify I’m. It necessarily on one “side” or the other. Was just asking if there were any further developments in that situation

Pretty tough to sweep anything under the rug in a fishbowl like IU lives in. No one outside of WL thinks/hopes this was a dismissible offense, so you let the legal process work its way through and then handle the internal discipline as privately as possible in an environment like this.

The NU curfew situation dismissed any objective concerns about MW being soft.

Well after this post I've lost some respect for you as well.

Bottom line is that if Woody wins nobody will care about the rest of the bs. Winning cures all.

It cures a lot but not all. Many alumni would not make excuses for Dollar Bill Self or fake classes.

Who said anything about paying players or fake classes? There's people here that want Woodson to dismiss our best guard for a speeding ticket. Making comparisons to Carolina's bs classes or Kansas buying players is one hell of a leap.

Well I should've been more clear, it clears the XJ bs. It doesn't clear cheating.

Given that he suspended multiple players for missing curfew which resulted in a loss that put our NCAA hopes in jeopardy, it's safe to say that X has been punished.

I hear that Xavier will be teaching a defensive driving class to area high school kids. That should be fun.

maybe he needs to switch to his left hand

Understand. Me too.
At this time tho, with no announcement, I have to think there will be some internal discipline but no kicked off team/suspended a bunch of games/etc.
