They are gonna be really bad. I thought maybe Archie would get some recruiting momentum, but he's whiffing on everyone and TJD has fell in the rankings. Candy stripers are gonna be cellar dwellers for quite awhile.
Somehow Indiana will be worse than last year

The way he coached Romeo Langford proved he’s minor league. What top talent would want to go there and waste away for a year. I hear horror stories but of course, publicly, Langford is taking the high road.
Miller and IU-Bloomington fans are nothing but schmucks.

When Rick was FARRR'D (farr that sonofabeeyitch), I lamented on the missed opportunity that was Miller, that IU got to him first. It was only one season but compare Mack Year 1 to Miller Year 1, there's no doubt who looks to be the better hire. When I look at UCLA, UT, Michigan and the hires they made....no doubt Louisville made a great hire and all Cardinal fans should be thankful for this.
Very thankful. It used to drive me crazy to see our guys getting pushed around at times under the previous coach. Those days are GONE. We might not always win but we WILL have tough players who won't back down. I enjoy the hell out of that myself. Super glad coach Mack is here!
Can you share any of the horror stories you've heard?
We'll see where Romeo gets drafted, but it doesn't seem Miller did much to develop him. Meanwhile, Mack developed Nwora and was already back in the NCAA Tournament last year, with Miller having a year head start. Going into next year, people are talking about UofL as a "Sweet 16 and beyond" caliber team, while wondering if IU can even make the Tournament.
I don't think we should use IU as our measuring stick but it's just interesting to see how the 2 programs seem to be heading in opposite directions.
One being the sheer nastiness the IUB fanbase has shown Romeo the last few months. Personal attacks, lies about his relationships with teammates, etc..
Their big alumni tried to bring down our program to make sure he went to IUB. They got him but their tricks didn’t work. We’re better off than they are by far and that irks their fans. I’m happy with that.
I've heard the "*****" stories of Romeo banging his teammates girlfriends and fights in the locker room. You don't just lose like 12 games in a row because of good chemistry. Romeo actually made them worse
I agree with you on Rick for the final years - we didn't have an enforcer down low since Montrezl left. Rick had them prior to that they were part of what made the 2012 and 2013 teams so terrifying on defense....your reward for breaking the press was Gorgui waiting for you under the basket....lol. We had Luke Whitehead, others in years prior to that.
Really? God if that’s the fact that kind of makes me glad he went to IU.
Seriously, LOL - a dude named "Romeo" tapping his teammates' girlfriends. That's like something you'd read from The Onion.
Indiana as a whole is disgusting. Wish they’d increase the price on the toll bridge.

Actually I don’t give a wit about IU in any way whatsoever. I think Romeo Langford made a “horrible mistake” but that’s just me. The NBA is exactly where he belongs, but playing for a year for Coach Mack would have made him a much better player. Oh yeah, thanks “dick” Pitino.
GO CARDS - BEAT EVERYBODY!!! God Bless America!!!

Miller not knowing what to do with Romeo made them worse.
Romeo’s time at IU went just as I expected. It was always going to be about Romeo and that’s exactly what happened. We dodged a bullet by not getting him.
Shhhhh! IU-Bloomington fans think they will land Brad Stevens.
It's ALWAYS Stevens for them. Maybe they can find a schwag Stevens assistant somewhere and then say told ya so!
Sounds like "Romeo" knew exactly what to do with his teammates' girlfriends though.

Jon Gruden. Duh.
