I can’t bring myself to give two cares about this situation. He wasn’t intoxicated, and no one was hurt. That’s what matters to me. Players at other schools do much worse without getting dismissed. It’s high time for IUBB to start protecting its players (within reason) and running with the big dogs. This is a nothing burger.

A successful Big East school an hour from IU isn’t in our best interest.

Your “high standards” are unrealistic and would lead to a team/coach that no star players would want to play for. Young men are going to make mistakes. If it’s a serious enough mistake, sure, show them the door. Certainly. This isn’t that. If we used your standards, Yogi would’ve been dismissed from the team when he tried getting into Kilroys with a fake ID during Little 5.

Lol man we’re talking about a reckless driving arrest. He’s not Aaron Hernandez. Do you think Kansas or North Carolina would dismiss their best point guard for a reckless driving charge? Cmon.

Then it’s a good thing it’s not up to you!

You don’t kick one of your best players off the team for reckless driving and resisting arrest. We’re not talking about rape, armed robbery, DV, etc. He made a dumb decision, assuming the allegations are true, whatever those allegations are.

Eh. Not the biggest deal. It’ll get pled out or dismissed. Doesn’t sound like he was drunk. We’ve seen a lot worse from players.

With all the talk about how bad his health was I figured we wouldn’t see him coach another team, or at least not see it for the foreseeable future. He was prepping to be an AD or whatever he was doing at IU, yet literally a year later he becomes a head coach in the Big East. I guess he could’ve had a miraculous recovery in that year, but I dunno. Strange situation to me. Butler’s very fortunate to have him.

Wish he was our coach. He’ll be great, which means Butler will unfortunately be good again.

What was up with our guy? Only two shots and 0 points.

Losing both Trayce and Race would be so brutal. We don’t seem to be in on anyone right now who could replace them.

Neither one of them is a stretch 4, and Race is the better overall player. Race shot better from three during conference play on nearly 3x the volume. On the season Geronimo shot 31% on 0.9 attempts per game, during conference play he shot 23% on 0.7 attempts per game, and he’s a career 48.4% from the free throw line. He isn’t a stretch 4. He shouldn’t be a 4 at all, but he doesn’t have the skills to be a 3 so it’s the only position he can play. If our frontcourt returns, he would need to substantially improve to start over Race.

If Fife did the things he’s accused of doing then Woodson handled it perfectly to let all the people Fife pissed off know that his kind of behavior won’t be tolerated.

I can’t overstate how happy this amount of boiler fail makes me.

Lmao that’s what I picture every Purdue fan looking like.

You absolutely love to see it

Hmmm. Well at least this seems to imply Ya will be sticking around.

Watching the game in Jersey City tonight so it’ll be fun to have a bar full of people to root against Purdue with again.

From selling his IU stuff on Facebook marketplace to IU assistant coach in a year lol.

Imo it’d be Woodson nudging Duncomb to the exit more than it’d be Duncomb wanting to leave IU. But that’s just a guess on my part.

I’ll be disappointed if Wittman is hired as the third assistant coach. I don’t have any particular guy I want as the third, mainly because I don’t pay attention to The Who’s who of assistant coaches. I just want an elite recruiter in the spot.

Enough time to get some head coaching experience until we’re ready for our next coach.

Wasn’t a fan of Rob the player as everyone knows so I’m not disappointed, but had zero issues with Rob the person. He always represented the university well. Hope he finds a good fit.

There’s enough blame to go around. I’m not a Dolson fan and I’m not on the Woody bandwagon yet, but it sounds like Woody didn’t really want him, or at the least wasn’t the one who hired him. @WayneFleekHoosier used the word smug a couple of days ago, and that really describes the vibe that I got from Fife. I’m obviously not around him. Never met the guy. But that’s how he came across in interviews and on social media. He had a few really bizarre social media moments this season. Now we’ve got reports of him ignoring directives from his boss, dumping on NIL in front of top tier talent, and pushing his political views on players, among other things. It’s all so bizarre that it makes him sound like a sleeper agent hired to cause chaos within the program.
