What makes you think he won’t get another year? He’s a former player with very influential/wealthy friends. If the inside information is to be believed, the AD wasn’t the one who decided to hire him. IU’s expectations are a fraction of what they were 20 years ago. Put all that together and I see zero reason to believe he’ll be fired if we make the tournament this year.

Hope the check cleared this month my guy. Must have since you finally showed your face again.

Look who decided to crawl out of his hole after going into hiding for a month and a half after the Bahamas. Please just go away again.

Seems very likely, imo. As Mike told Dolson, he’s the coach until he decides not to be.

We’re so screwed.

But but how can this be? He loves IU so much!

There’s definitely less pressure on Dolson to make a move now that IUFB has arrived. Basketball had been king at IU, but football is king within college sports at large. Maybe it’s just me, but basketball feels like an afterthought at this point. It’s all about the football transfer portal and reloading for next year. May not be worth rocking the boat when IUFB has fans happy.

I simply have no faith in the administration that gave him a $1 million raise for making the tournament then firing him after making the tournament.

Bracketolist or not, you don’t have to be one to see that sneaking into the tournament would be devastating for the program. Mike Woodson cannot be the head coach after this season.

Games like tonight are why I have zero faith in this being Woodson’s last season. The team will win enough to save his job, but nowhere near as many as it should win. We’re stuck in this hellish cycle until the King decides to fully retire.

I left our game wanting Georgia to smash ND, but all the SEC slobbering the past two weeks changed my mind. You’d think ND beat us by 50 with the postgame reaction yet now we’re one of the closing games in the first two rounds.

I hate that one of these teams has to win.

He’s going to need a lengthy midday nap if he’s scheduled to speak at 9:00pm.

Ball don’t lie.

I get that you can’t take too much away from bowl games in today’s college football, but Alabama was mid all year. The Alabama playoff push was solely because of their brand this year, not anything we saw on the field.

At least the suspension worked and Ballo was locked in during today’s game from the bench… Lol. I just could not care less about any of the guys on our team. When all you have to offer guys is money, this is exactly what you get. https://twitter.com/hoosierhystrcs/status/1873496312836227223?s=46&t=LoczziaTWuqlhvyvHGT92A

Honestly way worse than sitting out the entire game, imo. I understand the injury concerns when you’re about to be a first round pick, but playing until you set a personal record and then quitting on your team afterwards is just so selfish to me.

Honesty I had largely forgotten about the bowls. They used to mean something, but now they are largely meaningless with the expanded playoff, transfer portal, opt outs, etc. You get stuff like Cam Ward playing one half so he can set an individual record and then sitting out the second half when his team needs him/has a chance to win. Give me a shot at a national championship every time over a bowl game.

Bet Woodson doesn’t like that Coach Cig took his spot as top dog in IU athletics. Too bad, so sad.

Only a loser would come in worried about not getting 4+ years to win. It’s probably the biggest excuse I see from IU. IU keeps coaches too long because the administration cares more about optics than results. Kentucky just pushed out a coach with 100x the success of post-1990 IU and we’re sitting here worried about scaring coaches off if we fire them after three years and send them off with an eight-figure buyout. Be for real.

A public firing may be the only way to fill Assembly Hall this year.

Well, a couple of years ago it meant getting a million dollar raise, so we don’t exactly have any reasons to be confident in the powers that be.

Dude was out of coaching entirely for two seasons before we came calling. Just a laughably bad hire made worse by IU’s refusal to cut its losses and move on before the bottom completely falls out.
