I think with Matta and Fife running the show instead of Woodson we would probably be a 25 win team year in and out. The way Matta recruited Indiana I doubt Mullins and company would of left.

To be fair, a lot of us fans thought the same thing, myself included.
While it didn't work out, at least the Archie hire made basketball sense ... unlike the baffling Bigfoot hire.
every player was gambling when I was out there. I’m sure gallo thought it was an exhibition game again. Hope he swam with the dolphins! 🐬
Didn't he also leave OSU because he was basically physically unable to continue? Left one job and failed a physical to get another high D1 job. Doesn't sound like BS to me. I think he had severe back issues that ultimately were treated and got better. He looked broken down and in pain from what I remember at OSU at the end.
But when you were there, it was an exhibition, right? Two different things in my mind: gambling while at an exhibition game, vs in season. Used to be a thing called curfews and I bet still are at places like UCONN!
His back is a mess. He's got the drop foot thing going, which is why his gait is so awkward.
Are we talking about the same Thad Matta that's lost to Austin Peay and North Dakota State this year already? Lost to Houston by 28.
I mean, at least he also lost to Wisconsin, so he'd fit right in.

Butler should never have dropped those two buy games. And Houston was a disaster. But they have 3 good wins—SMU at home and Northwestern and ranked Mississippi State at a neutral site.
That’s with probably with 1/3 of IU’s NIL resources. The question is how would Matta do at IU v. Woodson?
We'll never know. But we know how he's doing with his own roster. He's losing to NDSU and Austin Peay. Do you think he has better rosters than those teams?
