My dad used to take me out of school every year on the first day of tourney games. Would write me a “dentist appointment” note, and we’d go get wings and watch games all afternoon. Did that every year from K-12. He passed away a few years ago, but I think about that every March.
@Rob_Dupre3
If your boys are into sports, can’t recommend it enough! He did different stuff like this for me, than he did for my brother who wasn’t as into sports. He was a great and thoughtful dad.
Have already seen several posts of this dude in the gym on his own. Have a feeling he may be the best portal pickup of the year after it’s all said and done.
It appears new

Woody is going to put together a nice little recruiting class and a great portal haul, and we’re still going to have vocal doomers. Insane stuff. I don’t know what it is with these people.

The 6-8 sophomore averaged 2.6 points per game last season for the Hoosiers.
Bruce Pearl and Dusty May getting knocked out in the first round. All the key players on our squad returning so far. Tough scenes for the Indiana Hoosier basketball haters and doomers - of which there are many!
The council now moves to trying and sentencing for any IU fan that said anything along the lines of: “You just have to root for Purdue. They’ve got Indiana kids and just play the right way.” Warrants have been issued. You shall meet your fate soon.
I’ve had genuine disdain for the old guard of IU fans for quite some time. Glad y’all are catching on. Miserable folks. I worked in the athletic dept. for 3.5 years while I was at IU, and the number of angry, expletive ridden phone calls we’d get almost daily from them was insane
Arizona transfer Oumar Ballo tells me he’s taking a visit to Indiana beginning April 14th-16th.
He also plans to visit Louisville April 16th-18th and Kansas State April 19th-21st. He’ll then visit North Carolina and Florida the following week.
Ballo averaged 12.9PPG, 10.1RPG
Remember when that middle school AAU coach posted a 7 MINUTE video decrying Mike Woodson and lamented how he’s lazy and he how can’t recruit and how he’s killing the program? FOLKS,,,,
Doing a listen because I want to hear those freaks cry, and of course they are pinning this entirely on Woody. Like they didn’t drag him through the mud for months on end, and actively work to pin the fan base against him. Being pieces of shit has consequences, dickheads!
Why does every podcast and fan account for this university act so god damn self important? You’re entirely missing the point of Woodson’s anyway, but whatever. Go cry in your corner because our coach was “mean” to you.

We give a lot of time and energy to this program and have for years. If a lack of blind faith means I’m not a true fan, I’ll wear it.
I don’t get how Purdue is ranked so highly in some of these preseason rankings. I’m genuinely asking this question. Not trying to start Little Brother/Big Brother Discourse.
Quarterback Julian Lewis, ranked No. 1 in the nation by ESPN and Rivals, is scheduled to visit Indiana this weekend.

If you think you’re getting the whole story from the podcast of the people who are getting removed from the program, then I don’t know what to tell you man. I’m listening right now and they’re doing the best they can to make themselves sound like the good guys. Hilarious

@BrianRampage
They’re definitely weirdos, and woody has every right to cancel their fan fest, but id recommend you actually listen to the podcast. Mike Woodson is truly the most insecure and stubborn person maybe ever its insane lmao.
Wild shit man. Finally have some things to be excited about and you all are shitting and pissing in your diapers because the coach you all tried to get fired FOR ONE DOWN SEASON talked a little shit to you. I promise it’s okay to be excited and to have some hope. I promise!

You cannot stop Tyme, he is inevitable. Hilarious that a dude trying to spread good news about Indiana basketball is hated so deeply by a large chunk of the fanbase.

Someone needs to fund a study on college message board members having a compulsive need to be program insiders. This is hilarious fan fiction from somebody who clearly relishes in people thinking he knows things.

Definitely prefer Hatton over Konstantynovskyi, so I like this. Give me Hemenway on top, and call this an offseason. Don’t even think we need to fill the last scholarship spot.

There are definitely a large chunk of normal older folks that root for IU. I love them. The angry vocal ones - actual insane people. The demands to talk directly to Glass. The demands I transfer them immediately to Coach Crean or Coach Wilson’s office. The entitlement is insane.
