@joe_hoopsier I'll let my poker buddies know they could have second careers as college bball general managers. They'll be thrilled they have options!
@iugradman I'm not going to base his progress off tournament results, because he could get the team playing better with good results and still get upset for a variety of reasons. If we compete like a good solid tournament team and are tough to play, finish top 4 in conference and pull a couple upsets during the season, and get say a 6 seed or better, I'd see that as progress, even if we were upset in the tournament. Of course I'd not like it, and feel like they are building a roster that should be top 25 and S16 type team, but to me he could show improvement and enough success that not making a S16 wouldn't signal no hope.
I am comparing DeVries to Dusty and expecting comparable success. If Doorknob can’t lead this team to postseason wins then he needs to go.
Coach Woodson shouldve won big in this era!...
If he isn’t sipping bourbon in dimly lit smoke filled rooms, talking to agents every week, I’m firing his ass immediately!
Yaak Yaak multiple transfers would have worried me, but they changed coaches. So, not. Not great production yet. But in interviews he says the right things, sounds like a good attitude. Be nice to get him just when he should be more ready.
@hoosiers94 yes, according to the dudes on the podcast
so if he's taking to agents then he has some influence on getting them to listen or on campus or to take a call from the coaching staff I would imagine . So he's just not speaking to the players directly.

to me this is result we should have had this year. Not next year.. next year should be even better.
