I may KNOW Iโm right but if I see it leading to a fight and we just arenโt going to agree...Iโve just found that letting things go and not pursuing the disagreement has served me well in marriage and friendships. Once you open that box you often canโt take back what been broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldnt have said it any better. I get the feeling we are going to be really disappointed with the new hire. I do believe itโs a sleeping giant but unfortunately I donโt think coaches view it as this. I think putting all of the eggs in the BS basket likely hurt us. And if we are getting turned down by Thad Matta...๐ณ๐ค Thank you for all the info you do bring to the board.ย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I missed it, but who called you a liar? Are you referring to me questioning you? I've never questioned that you are relaying something you hear. But what I do question, not because of anything to do with you, is the statement that Dolson has no backup plan after Stevens. It's really hard to prove a negative, which is essentially the claim you're making, when you say there is no backup plan. Again, you may not know it, either because your source doesn't know it or hasn't told you, but that doesn't mean there's no backup plan. All you not knowing of a backup plan means is you don't know of a backup plan.ย ย ย Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have fans that like to stand and cheer and we have the stick in the ass fan yelling at them to sit down. Every coach coming to a school like IU knows what they are getting into, thats why they make millions. Fans of Ohio State were wishing death on players last week.ย This "OMG the IU fans are the mostest terrible and no one would want to play for that" nonsense is just that, nonsense. 20 years of this and people are shocked that the fanbase is pissed.ย Let Duke go through 20 years like this after Kryzewski gets fired and we can interview Bilas about how patient they should be.

FKIM01 Posted March 23, 2021 Report Share Posted March 23, 2021 40 minutes ago, IUwins0708 said: When Howard was hired Michigan faithful were less than excited, go look at their boards from back then. ย It was UGLY. I do think Fife could, I also think Fife could fall flat on his face. ย I mean yeah if they are ok working under Beilien then thatโs a great idea. ย Just not sure how you present that without it coming across as a slap in the face. ย Especially to Fife whoโs been a HC and has worked for someone probably better than Belien for several years. You can count me in that group as well.ย I wasn't necessarily down on Howard, but I felt like he had a lot to prove and I questioned whether Michigan was making a mistake hiring an unproven commodity.ย No question, he has answered a lot of the questions and outperformed my expectations quite a bit. Lewis and/or Fyffe would feel underwhelming to me on the surface...certainly a lot to prove, but after observing what Howard has accomplished thus far, I'm open to unproven. Whoever is chosen will get the benefit of the doubt from me and my support.ย I hate failure...and I hated seeing Archie fail.ย I'll pull hard for whoever replaces him.ย The IU job is not one for the faint of heart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure I am gonna be viewed as another guy who has pushed a valuable poster out the door. So be it. If someone makes that kind of statement, then they need to have something to back it up. ย I agree with you. Lots of time to get our next head coachย Iโm sorry to keep these going guys.
