IF TJD had left I am guessing woodson would be 0 for 4 on tourneys. Even that year was a underachievement they were picked to win the big ten. 12-8 is ok but nothing great.
We are close

Does it really mean that much when you had numerous polls. If this was football then IU could have claimed.a basketball title in 2002.
1. Why bring ND fb into the discussion?
2. #1 is so irrelevant, I thought you were referring to basketball; hence why I asked when did they ever win big?
3. I'm not bitching. Just curious what ND football , or RMK. Or liking IU hoops and ND football, have to do with Woodson being an awful coach.
If TJD had not returned, Woodson never sees this season.
They were pretty special in the 1920's, 1930's and 1940's. And again I guess in the 1970's.
Eleven. The last one being 37 years ago. Just sayin
Every title they have is a "voted title". And not saying they were not the best team. Just pointing that out.
Had some.really good teams under Holtz. But since, they've been up and down. Been really good of late.
Reversible jacket.
I get that. Never understood the reasoning. My cousin is a HUGE IU fan. Hoops and FB. BUT...dude has always loved the Irish. Just like most fans, there's usually a moment that makes us a fan...a favorite player being an example. Or a memorable game. Or , well just being born into it. For him it was Ismail, and then a family member(his dad side), playing there.
Heck I like ND in football. Not like I do Indiana. Hell, like them in hoops; Loved Digger.
Just a stale argument.
I grew up in Michiana. I loved ND as a kid. While ND Football was great under Ara, There was a lot of liberties taken by players that should have spelled legal trouble for the players involved. ND, to the best of their abilities, handles these things through the "student life council". They were very good at keeping what should be police matters internal. Anyway, about that time I'd had enough of their phony ass facade.
This particular reversible jacket guy just makes too many disparaging, yet uninformed comments about IU as a whole. As an alum, it's...... annoying.
I had a relative play for RMK, huge IU bball fan all of life because that was what we watched. ND football was kind in my household and have followed them ever since. I’m 2 hours from ND and about 2 hours from IU. Not sure why this is a big deal, there is a ton of Indiana natives that follow both teams.
I will, I’m changing who I watch and follow because some dude on a message board tells me I need to pick a side. If you can’t see the issues at IU, so be it.
Year 4, tired of being close, tired of bubble talk, at some point we have to win some of these games. Losing 5 out of last 6, not acceptable. Same ole same ole, not acceptable. Eye test not acceptable.
With those issues, just totally commit to ND for both football and basketball.
Don't subject yourself to the trauma of being an partial fan of both schools.
Keep seeing the title of this thread and can’t quit laughing. It always begs the question, close to what? The edge of the cliff?? Then, there’s that horseshoe and hand grenade thing also.
I wonder how CLOSE we are going to be tonight. We are soooooo close!
Only thing I want to be close in is getting a real coach. The culture of this team is beyond repair.
Who is we? IU is in jeopardy of not even making the B1G tournament.
Thank you for your entry in The Dumbest Post of the Year Contest. We take all entries seriously and will evaluate them with the utmost sincerity and objectivity.

Good luck!
Yep this will go down as one of the greatest hits of the year.
Heck if they go 10-10 and sneak into the tourney he would probably be calling for woodson to be extended for five more years.
Exactly, everyone on here should get in a helicopter and fly backwards to last April, May when Ballo, Mgbako, Carlyle and Rice had signed with Indiana. Then, fly over September, October when we were ranked preseason #17
IU basketball returns to AP Top-25 in 2024-25 preseason poll published Monday

And ask yourselves, how has this team performed based on the expectations? If anyone says they expected the current result, they are lying. Also, to those of you who think this #9 conference ranking, 18-12 overall record, and #55 NET ranking is something to be proud of, you need to find another program to support.

This team can be a 6-7 seed in the NCAA. And then who knows. The talent is there to make a run b
That is the best line in the whole post. I think they may get to play a 6 or 7 seed and probably lose by about 25.
