I'm struggling a little bit with this solely from the standpoint that my perception that Matta is a stand-up type of person with a very good basketball mind. Would he have hired Fife if he thought Dane was a f-up? Matta is probably also not wanting to spend an immense amount of time building a staff. I just don't have the urge to read into EVERY little detail and morsel of information. I'm not trying to say you are wrong for being curious, I just don't share that curiosity if that makes sense. You bring up good questions. But ultimately, dudes move on from jobs. I saw 0 and I mean 0 things wrong with our original press release. So that is probably the basis for my opinion, hell idk man. Again, to me.. they moved on, there really isn't any thing more to it then that. If Dolson did in fact hire Fife, that is stupid. Again, I was just on board with the "really not that big of a deal" the whole time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That back fires when the head Coaches pseudo boss leaves and then hires him. Most times the most obvious choice is the correct answer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5fouls Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Have to wonder what would we see if we poked our head into Scott Dolson's office right now. - Would we see the expression of a man who resembles someone that just recently returned from an all you can eat lunch buffet at Taco Bell? or....... - would we see the calm expression of a man who has no concerns with how the last year has developed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me Rabby does not put out anything unless he gets the green light from IU. Fife is against NIL just like you me and many others that feel the opportunity to play at IU is and should be enough. If you don't think what he said was taken out of context I have nothing for you. You can lol all you want or bury your head in the sand but Matta does not hire Fife if he dud those things. I will trust the coaching decisions of Matta and Izzo or Woodson until proven differently 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't gain anything by talking bad about Butler. I think that is beneath us. Or I would assume it is. It is clearly not beneath IU…look at how they treated him on his exit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He knows what a good buffet is. I went to IU Southeast in New Albany back in the 80's. No residence halls were there at the time. One semester, my buddy and I had a schedule where we had 3 morning classes and 2 evening classes, with a 6 hour break in the afternoon. Instead of driving home after the morning classes and driving back at night, we would head to Ponderosa or Sizzler for lunch and then to the bowling alley and roll 2-3 games. Did that twice a week for an entire semester unless we had an exam in one of the evening classes. Those were some good times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were probably going to the Ponderosa on State Street and Hoosier Bowling Lanes? Or maybe Blackiston Mill bowling lanes and the Ponderosa in Clarksville? I grew up in that area!

That’s not mutually exclusive. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
