What’s up with IU’s slow starts? It’s like Woody doesn’t have them mentally sharp, as if it’s their fate…his thoroughbreds late from the starting gate. Maybe it’s time Woody wore a rubber wrist band initialed, WWBD…What Would Bobby Do? I couldn’t help but think of the coaching contrast at Sh*t Show on display after 11 pts with 11+ minutes to go that first half. Why, Knight would have had Anthony Leal’s tongue dragging by the 8 min. mark. Nothing motivates quite like ass meeting bench, ass on pine greeting …something like that he once said. Woody's a nice guy, but is he too nice, something a bur up his butt might cure to be sure?

It was a restless crowd last night, coming from the realization the anticipated success of this 5 star-laden team may have been but a wet dream, as if jism come to waste, shot in the face, the teeth of the approaching wind. I hope Woodson has the coaching grit to right this ship(t). Is he coaching to win the hearts of NBA-like talent at the expense of the college game? I was sitting in the stands last night thinking how lucky we are to not be playing Purdue tonight after a start we’ve come to hate, readiness in locker room left in wait. IU is just not focused and may never be. I feel a frustratingly long season, won't you agree?

I think the whole pregame Jumbotron show is uninspiring, lacking in imagination. Is your ass getting sore, lazy man, Mr Oats, if not Hall? I miss the video of the players dancing in the tunnel, the orgasmic build up in high decibel sound to Where The Streets(Jerseys) Have No Name.

The Mop Lady is still okay, but not as fresh as she used to be. Every time I see it I immediately wonder why the video is so grainy. It wan’t grainy back then, whenever that was, the time of less fuzz. Why can’t they just reshoot the scene, make it clean? If not, shouldn’t Mark Cuban be able to tweak the pixels in his School of Sports Media Center For Kids Who Don’t Do Athletics Good? Why not suggest it as a grad student thesis project to figure out. Better yet, just scrap the crappy VHS video and have a live person in costume, a School of Music opera singer come out of the tunnel. They did it once, do it again, every time. It would be more unique, something replayed, spirally viral on the former TikTok, now X, made famous throughout the basketball kingdom. Just once, I wish the IU Administration would have the balls to put me in charge. Don’t be slow, thinking only status quo!
