Either we have an incompetent administration or a completely neutered one. Either way we’re in trouble.

As long as he’s done at the end of the season, I’d rather IU not fire him mid season. He deserves all these boos he has coming his way.

I actually agree with never been got Scott on this. We shouldn’t just take it as a given that Woodson is gone next year. IU cares about optics more than anything else. They will care about the optics of firing an alum who made 3 tournaments in 4 years. It shouldn’t matter. Anyone with a pulse can see the issues over the past four years. But the IU administration will care. That’s why I’m so adamant that it’s vital we miss the tournament this year.

Yeah I don’t particularly care for any of the players on this roster. Maybe my hatred of Woodson has poisoned my feelings toward them, but I’m perfectly fine with an entirely new team next season. Clear house entirely.

Bob Knight’s approach wouldn’t work in 2025. It didn’t really work in the 90s. But my ideal coach would be a lot closer to Bob Knight than he’d be to Mike Woodson.

Gee, I wonder what’s different between the games in November/December and the games in January-March…

Did he delete the tweets? I don’t see anything doxxing-related on his account.

SDB is “Scott Dolsons Burner,” a very irritating and abrasive pro-Woodson Twitter account. “Doxxed” means to have one’s true identity revealed. Apparently Xavier Johnson was the guy behind the account.

When Rice referred to Woodson as a grandpa it was a sign of how this season would go.

Imagine having Mike Woodson as your landlord. “I know it’s 10 degrees outside, but it’s not my job to fix your heat.”

100%. In absolutely no way was hiring a 63 year old semi-retired Mike Woodson in the best interest of the IU basketball program. It was an atrocious decision then and hasn’t gotten any better four years later. I at least thought he’d be motivated to work hard at the job because he was an “IU guy,” but he’s shown he couldn’t care less. I reallyyy hope we only have two more months of this crap.

There’s not much they can do. But they aren’t on staff for their great coaching prowess, which is what you need when your coach is as bad as Mike Woodson. So IU is really just paying them a few hundred thousand each to watch Mike Woodson embarrass himself on game day.

Recruiters who never land any recruits. What a great gig.

He doesn’t love IU. He just love what IU does for him. No one who loves IU would handle their coaching tenure the way he has.

Huge win for the tank. Time to fire up the boos in the Hall and send Mike Woodson packing.

He gets paid millions of dollars to barely work and have his ego stroked every day. Zero chance he voluntarily gives that up.

No but it’s the same administration that hired Woodson, raised his salary $1 million/year, and then brought him back for a fourth season.

I didn’t root for wins in those games for this exact reason, so I’m not really the target demographic for this question. But this is why I hate the “true fans wouldn’t root for losses” take we’ve seen from certain people. A Mike Woodson led basketball team is a miserable experience. We all seem to want him gone after this season. Losing games is the way we get rid of him. It’s as simple as that.

Maybe as lead sommelier.

Why would I want B to happen when it decreases the likelihood of A happening? He got a million dollar raise for making the tournament. Two years later he’s going to get fired for making it? The IU administration has given us zero reason to trust it to do the right thing. From hiring Woodson in the first place, giving him a fat raise for making the tournament, and then bringing him back for a fourth season. The administration has made the wrong move every step of the way. Why believe it’ll be any different now? The team needs to bottom out to leave no doubt of a change.

This game sucks. I enjoy a notre dame beat down as much as the next game, but I didn’t want the last CFB game for the next 7 months to be a blowout.

Could just be me, but it hasn’t felt like there’s been much buzz for the championship. I kept forgetting that it was on tonight. It’s been almost two months since the regular season ended, and we’re now deep into the NFL playoffs.

I mean yeah they do it for school, etc., but I can’t remember the last time I sent an email to a friend. I don’t think I even know some of their email addresses. In any event, based on what was shared on here, I feel pretty confident that I’ve guessed what happened.

Are college kids even sending emails these days?

I mean, the athletic director wanting to move on but not being able to doesn’t inspire confidence.
