1987 IS THE LAST TIME MY BELOVED HOOSIERS WERE NATIONAL CHAMPS!!! BEEN FAR TOO SINCE THIS ALL TIME GREATEST PROGRAM IN THE HISTORY OF COLLEGE BASKETBALL, IS BACK IN THE NAME OF COLLEGE BASKETBALL, LEGENDARY PROGRAMS !!! MIKE LEWIS, DANE FIFE, PAT KNIGHT, ARE GREATER COACHES THAN WOODY, BY A MILE!!!
That coach has won every where he has been and an assistant under coach Knight. I would definitely feel good about IU basketball again if that happened!!
@@douglascarlson9006 were it not for those issues he wouldn’t be a possible candidate. He’d still be at Texas. I get your concern. But he’s in a zero tolerance situation now and seems to be fine.
IU has plenty of talent, but no quarterback (point guard) to run the offense properly, and they lack leadership. For the amount of talent they do have, they’re a mess!
As long as Woodsen is the coach you shouldn’t have much in the way of expectations. They are struggling to beat mid tier teams. They aren’t doing anything this year from this point. If Woodsen isn’t fired at the end of the year IU doesn’t care about basketball anymore
Ha! ... I've been sleeping in candy stripes since the early 70s, and I cancelled my livestream subscription immediately after that Louisville game in which they were down 78-40 with 7m left and 89-54 with only 51s left!
Coaching is the problem. With NIL being what it is now theres no reason why they couldn't bring in a talented coach and be competitive right away. The truth is up until they saw a few games the A team running this channel acted high on Indiana. Indiana fans already knew what this season would be the moment they made the decision to keep woodson last season.
Indiana is NOT a blue blood. This is exactly what I expected from Indiana. Look at the previous 3 seasons under Woody. This is the exact same start. Also, go to seek geek and you can get assembly hall tickets for less than $50 for most games. There are no tickets in Mackey arena for less than $96 per seat the rest of the season.
And Purdue is a blue blood? Haha you need championships bud don’t act like Purdue is this powerhouse program. Before last year Purdues last run was 50 years ago 😂😂
@michaelhatfull3305 never said anything about Purdue. A blue blood is a constant winner in the NCAA tournament. Indiana doesn’t even make half of the last 22 tournaments and haven’t made a final four in the last 22 seasons. UCLA, Duke, UNC, Kansas, UConn, and Kentucky have all been shown to be the class of the NCAA tournament. Indiana does not deserve to be in that category.
@@Bakers924yes youright. Its just so frustrating for us who witnessed the Knight championships and can see Woodson is a nice guy but not a good coach or recruiter
@DanielTroyer-u2h you are a real fan. You don’t blindly defend the team. You’re honest with yourself. So Indiana’s roster is talented. The problem is Woodson is in over his head. NBA is different than coaching in the NCAA. You’re only playing 30 to 35 games. Indiana never starts the year prepared. The best teams spend the offseason figuring out what plays work and what line ups don’t work.
Not a blue blood program, but definitely still a blue blood brand - the name, the history, the environment and that "pitchfork" logo all make for an awesome brand ... and last year, Bruce Pearl said IU fans are THE most knowledgeable fans in the country.
After the Louisville game your expectations should've been lowered to the bottom, I'd be surprised if they make it into the Big Ten tournament, let alone the big dance. Conference about to be brutal
Yup, that was arguably THE most humiliating loss since one of Woodson's teams made the trip to MINN in the late 70s and lost by 50! ... true, check it out! ... but just for the record, IU was down 78-40 to L'ville with 7m left and 89-54 with only 51s left!
Fire Woodson and get a Proven Coach!! No amount of NIL will make Indiana excel under Woodson!! PEARL or BEARD will completely change INDIANA basketball!!!
Indiana basketball…….. Coach Crean tried and did a remarkable job bringing us out of the ashes that should not of been in the first place!! Dolson get this this right or let us all know who is in the way!!
And?? Purdue has multiple big 10 titles, a slew of fantastic wins, and a NC game appearance. IU has 3 wins vs Purdue. Cool. Also Purdue had him for 4 years so convenient to clip off the one year.
I’m not trying to play devils advocate, but Woody got an Archie Miller roster in as a bubble. His second year firmly as a top 15 team and his last year without a point guard got to 19 wins. Not justifying anything, but again the expectation levels I think are far too high for the fan base, considering that it was a universal feeling that the program and fanbase was behind Woody and his staff a year and a half ago
@ half the year they were ranked inside the top 15 and finished 21st. They hovered around the 20-16 range for a lot of the year and had a bad 3 game stretch in January
Braindead analysis. Indiana is bad this year but there's nothing wrong with the program. Just need the right coach Indiana is going to be a player in the NIL era
I’m not quite sure about that. Indiana has had so many coaches since Knight and it’s been average at best. Indiana needs to acquire the right talent through NIL and hire a big name coach that has won on the college level
@@chrissanderson100 Nonsensical. Old rules aren't defining who is and isn't successful in the NIL/transfer portal era. Just because IU has made poor coaching hires before does not mean they will make poor coaching hires in the future. If you flip a quarter 5 times and get tails 5 times it doesn't mean the odds of heads on the next flip aren't 50/50. If you are trying to convince me that different hires in different contexts under different administrations and different NCAA rule structures are indicative of the next hire well you've got your work cut out for you...
@@Energyfl00d listen as a true believer in Cignetti go to come in and have immediate turnaround is super rare into the original point I always had all different coaches with all different style rosters, all different styles of play and they still can’t get it. This goes much further than just a head coaching change. Expectations have to change.
Too many games left; 18 in Big 10. If they go 2 and 2 the next 2 weeks then it might be reason to panic. But if they go 3 and 1 they are in the mix at the top of the Big 10. I keep saying, Galloway is the key to their success. He was very good on both ends last night with 5 assists no turnovers and 11 points. Go IU and shock the fans who long ago jumped off the ship
@PowidzMalwa They beat no one. Their best win was at home against the 65th best team in the nation. All games against tournament teams were blow out losses. Indiana is bad.
@beowulf3303 No I'm indifferent to Indiana basketball at all. I'm a UNC fan. Just when I saw the title of this I looked at the Indiana record at 11-3 and thought not bad. Didn't know anything about who they have played. We are also having our own struggles. Seem to be in similar situations with both having alum as head coach.
11-3 is impressive until you put those 3 losses under a microscope ... I cancelled my livestream subscription after the L'ville game in which we trailed 78-40 at one point.

I have told my circle of friends Indiana should have let Woody go last year and went after Dusty May.
In DEC 2022, IU beat UNC in Bloomington to put them at 7-0 to start the year ...
And since that game, Woodson is now only 45-29 ...
How could an IU fan forget Cody Zelller’s name?
Woodson is clueless. Horrible hire.
@@BrianJensen-hq5xj better than the last coach. lol
He looks like a DEI hire.

Chris. Beard.

NFW, not Beard ...
Has had some pretty serious off-court issues in the past 5 years ...
I wouldn't touch him ...

Crean really struggled towards the end.

And?? Purdue has multiple big 10 titles, a slew of fantastic wins, and a NC game appearance. IU has 3 wins vs Purdue. Cool.
Also Purdue had him for 4 years so convenient to clip off the one year.
I'm not saying final four every year. I just want to see IU make the tournament consistently and not be on the bubble.
I’m not trying to play devils advocate, but Woody got an Archie Miller roster in as a bubble. His second year firmly as a top 15 team and his last year without a point guard got to 19 wins.
