  1. Doesn't sound like IU is getting good feedback at all from the portal guys. Not surprised no one wants to play for Woody's God awful system and especially when he's likely to only be here one year. Dolson better call the Simons and the Cooks and tell them we're going to need a bigger boat. Looks like we'll have to vastly over pay to get anyone decent.
  2. Certainly others. But even if he was the cleanest coach ever IU would never hire him.
  3. But you're forgetting the cardinal rule of the Indiana administration...no one bigger than the program ever again no matter what. Would never be hired in a million years.
  4. That's ridiculous. May built FAU from the ground up. Ollie is much more comparable to Mike Davis, Tubby, etc who inherited a HOF coaches roster and then crapped the bed when all of those players left.
  5. I believe the camp has been in the works all season and is already sold out. Means nothing.
  6. Then he needs to move now unless he's a complete idiot. It's going to get a whole lot worse for Scott if his targets are all gone next year, the 2025 class is a bust which it will be, and Woody leaves an empty roster for the next coach which he will.
  7. He can pull the trigger whenever he wants. BOT can't stop him. But Scott is a yes man as we discussed when he was hired. Pat Kraft was the man as I said at the time but the administration would never allow that. They don't want an AD. They want a
  8. The rules have changed quite considerably. Almost nothing Pearl has ever been accused of is illegal now. And who is the elite P5 coach they think they'll be able to land next season? I just can't think of any. Oats isn't happening. Nor is Beard. Drew will either be at UL or sign a massive extension with Baylor. It's now or never IU. Throw Pearl the contract you offered Stevens last time.
  9. Always a great sign for the future of the program when the fans start rooting for the coach to have a health scare.
  10. The Sycamores deserve a bid way before we do. We're only getting in if we win the BTT.
  11. Mike sure seems like he's becoming unhinged. Very insecure and egotistical. This just isn't going to end well. I'm gonna guess he goes down as possibly the most hated IU basketball coach ever. The next 12 months will not be boring.
  12. Some of us are still hoping slightly that the administration will pull its head out of its ass. Probably won't happen.
  13. An ego maniac of the highest order. That is Mike Woodson. He's could bring down the University if Scott doesn't act soon. He's that bad.
  14. But there is a coach available who would take the job and loves women's sports.
  15. No that's been pretty much confirmed. That Chris guy on BtB, I don't post as they blocked me but read their stuff, pretty much said if Woody had his way the women's team would play its games in the Assembly Hall parking lot. Heard this from others. Woody truly believes he is Bob Knight at the end of 1987.
  16. Accurate. We are so screwed unless Dolson grows a spine and pulls the trigger soon.
  17. I agree with that. He wasn't hired because he's black. He was hired because he's friends with Buckner. But yes Mike has been spotted with that Marxist black power fist logo on his shirt at many events. Rubs many the wrong way especially in regards to the double standard he supposedly put on Fife. Everyone is already aware of Mike Davis and Cora Breckenridge and why he was kept on past 2001. Or why Herbert made it hard to move on at the end. Or why Herbert denied Greenspan from hiring Beilein who was a top 5 coach and was literally a match made in heaven for IU and Beilein. Instead we had a shady coach with sanctions hanging over his head forced on us because our minority President insisted on a minority hire. And we now know for a fact that Buckner made the Woodson hire happen when no other program would've given him a look. Likely had nothing to do with race but people connect those dots. Buckner supposedly also absolutely hates Steve Alford who was the only IU guy remotely qualified. Why does he hate Alford but love Woody? It is what it is. The administration got us into this dumpster fire and they'll have to find a way out.
  18. Never do business with friends or family. Shame on Quinn Bucker for putting everyone in this position.
  19. But he has no self-awareness. He just has to know he isn't the right guy for the job. He has to. He's also past retirement age. So go into Dolson's office and negotiate a retirement package. Bow out gracefully. Part of the reason the fans go nuts is we've seen time and time again that the administration simply can't or isn't willing to fix things themselves. Or they simply wait many years too long. Fans therefore feel they have to take matters into their own hands. Create such a toxic environment that he can't possibly succeed and force a firing. If the administration would simply go out and hire a big name coach this would all go away.
  20. You have to think Dolson is making calls and trying to find a way out of this mess. Mike simply doesn't have a clue. Never should've been hired. Next season will be worse and everyone knows it. Sadly Buckner and the Simon's want him back. The fans are completely done and there's no getting them back. They're already throwing out words like DEI hire and BLM all over Twitter. An even worse word is likely coming if Dolson doesn't move soon. A mass exodus is also coming and he can't recruit no matter how much NIL money we throw out. You're looking at an atmosphere this summer and next season that will make the RMK and Sampson firings seem like a day at Disneyland. Not sure what the solution is if Dolson really is shackled.
  21. Right now Dolson definitely knows a change is required. However, the Simon family due to Buckner is insisting on a 4th year. Buckner needs to be removed immediately. He doesn't give a sh!t about the program just his buddy.
  22. He doesn't believe in recruiting HS kids. Only elite 5 stars. That's why he didn't show up to Sectionals and was forced by Dolson to attend that other game purely for optics. He believes the Simon family will buy him an elite roster through the portal each season.
