Mike Woodson has never found a subject that he loves more than Mike Woodson...
He's a big fan of third person braggery!
Fun fact: when football first started, coaching from the sideline was strictly prohibited and substitutes could not communicate with the rest of the team for one full play. Players removed for subs were out for the game or half, depending on the rules of that year, so running plays in from the sideline couldn't happen either. The idea was that the game should be a contest of players, not coaches.
Now baseball has followed football down the path of calling every move from the sidelines.
I didn't know any of that. Fascinating. I love the thinking.
Cignetti talks the talk, will be interesting to see how it translates to the field.
His history shows a lot of walking the walk.
@@KentSterling Google It.
I recall 4-5 years ago, when Tom Allen was considered the best thing since sliced bread. As we soon found out, IU paid him huge money based upon 1 freak season when he himself lucked into a bunch of IU talent and won several games. It was a 1-year thing however, and had very little (if anything) to do with Tom Allen's coaching. Basically he was an average coach with a below average team which doesn't make for too much success. Hopefully Cignetti does a better job.
Cignetti is a MUCH better coach. Allen’s weird two years almost had me question my leadership beliefs!
It should be fascinating to watch PSU defense this year under Allen
@@jeffreycondon8729 He's a good DC - or seemed to be one under Wilson.
One thing I have noticed is the talent difference between the "haves and the have nots" in the WNBA seems much wider than other professional sports. Unfortunately, the Fever are one of the have nots. I don't think it's a question of they will figure it out or hire Eric Spoelstra as their coach.
Not a good basketball team. That is beyond question. Hope it evolves to something a little better during the break.
Don't expect to win any titles immediately now that your conference has been flooded with the biggest money Pac-12 teams. Things have gotten distinctly harder for IU - and they weren't close last year.
But things are harder for everyone now! Hoosiers are ready to roll through first six games!
It won't go 7 games but if it did the NBA finals would last longer than the Summer Olympics.
17 days to play 7 games is crazy!
the Fever are a bad team. I fear that Clark is being used as a marketing windfall. they better get some talent and make changes. She’s the real deal.
That's the fact, Jack! Fever are bad. Clark is popular!
Keep losing and the newly acquired interest is gonna dwindle fast.
@@mgraham_Indiana I wonder. Logic would dictate that, but Clark is so popular that her fame will continue to lift the WNBA.
Kent, what about the rumor of Simon meeting with Iowa's women's basketball team coach? Is she in line to become the Fever head coach?
IU a year ago had the Indiana High School ALL TIME RUSHING LEADER on their squad.
They didn't even offer him a scholarship, and after 2 years as a walk-on and getting a little use on special teams he decided to go to Ball State instead.
Where is any accountability?
Allen was fired - that's accountability.
It’s Cignetti University!
Go CU!
I win. Google me.
Yes with baseball the catcher needs to observe the batter and call off what they notice from up close with a chemistry. Habits and patterns in particular that they should be processing between pitches and communicating mutually. It's supposed to be a cohesion not totally different from a quarterback and receiver. Sometimes the pitcher leads and sometimes the catcher guides from the plate. Taking that away and using electronics contributes to diluting the capacity of both the players and the game of baseball at any level of competition.
That is an exceptionally erudite description of baseball - and why it has always been a great game.
@@KentSterling It sure has been and at the end of the day, as a fellow purist , just hope kids in generations to come can know and fall in love with the same game we were able to experience!
@@eyeemknotlion1873 I hope you are right, although it seems unlikely!
@@KentSterling Agreed, unfortunately.
Only nine years? It feels more like 30.
What is your prediction for our Basketball team this year Kent..I am feeling like we will be second in the BIg , sweet 16 appearance...gut feeling....hope its better
Need to contend for the Big 10 title. Woodson said his goals - Big 10 and National Championships. Need to show serious progress toward that.
NIT invite most likely. Will start out promising, then bottom completely falls out, a inspiring struggle to make the 64+ fails in the end. Woddy says “next year”; we all agree, next year.
@@DustyTail I will be finished with agreeing if the fourth year ends as the first three did.
Wnba has done everything possible to prove they are a useless league.
I loved the fever coach defense imitation!
Way too many coaches jumping all over the place. Might need to restrict coaching hires to age 65+ - or knee/hip replacement recipient.
Entitled FB players…bye-bye. Playing FB at Indiana, or any D1, is a privilege, not a right.
Some lessons come hard!
