Didn't quite see a denial in there. Rooting for the Celtics this postseason.

Hah. I HATE NIL and the transfer portal but at least this is entertaining

Not IU guys.....screw em'

Transfer portal season is looking pretty good. Have to give Woodson credit where due. The issue is (and I may be totally wrong since the portal is still a relatively new thing) this isn't a sustainable way to run a program, right? You can't just unload and reload every year. Maybe I'm wrong and this is just the way of college basketball nowadays combined with NIL. Sad, but it is what it is right now.

While I wasn't crazy about Dusty, this is just one more thing to make me feel like we've taken another step in the wrong direction by doing nothing and sticking with someone we know isn't the answer. Everyone else is improving and we're.....well....not. He'll recruit Indiana, have to imagine UM will given him the cash to compete NIL-wise and now we have to play against him in conference. This should have been part of Dolson's consideration - not letting a coach like this enter the B1G unless if it's at IU. Michigan would have gotten a good one no matter what but this is just a kick in the nuts.

I never wanted to admit we aren't a serious program to myself but there's no other conclusion. Get ready for more losses to Penn State and freaking Nebraska

This infuriates me. Why, just why, can't we have an administration with some damn balls? Mike Woodson never deserved this job. I don't care what Archie Miller was given or what the optics are if we fire him now. Archie at least coached in the college arena with some success. All the coaches we could get are going to go elsewhere leaving IU even further behind. All in the name of optics. I'd argue the optics are worse if we keep Mike Woodson. Why can the admin not see this? If the inbreds in Lexington can figure it out, we can too.

I SEC what ya did there

Cal's buyout is like $30 million. He isn't going anywhere.

We suck. We know this. Try to enjoy UK losing to Oakland

not gona be enough bourbon in Kentucky for this

health check, casual gamer reed

SIAP - anyone see the Crean interview on 1070? Basically says the Indiana admin is much more toxic than the fans ever were. Granted this is a man that was fired by that admin but still interesting. https://1075thefan.com/271083/tom-crean-has-a-message-for-indiana-basketball/

oh Steubs....never change

It is open and from what I've read - Alford is a target. Good luck with that, OSU

Winning solves everything in sports. Crean got 9 years and was fired due to his inability to make in-game adjustments and a mediocre record in the NCAA tournament. Archie got 4 years and was fired for the same reason Woody will eventually get canned - program trajectory trending down. Coaches are fired more much less these days but I can't say I disagree with Dusty's assessment of us if this is true. The fans can be brutal. That's because we care and are tired of mediocrity. OSU is a football school first and always will be. The noise will never get loud for the bball coach bc fans over there just don't really care. I guess that's nice for the coach but also depressing. Remove $$$ from the equation and I'd say if he had a choice between IU, OSU, and Louisville - OSU should be last on that list.

Yikes. This man is clueless.

THIS is what upsets me so much. Seeing competent athletic departments do what they knew they had to without hesitation. IU - we hire and KEEP a failed NBA coach with zero college experience purely bc he played here 40 years ago and had his feelings hurt when we hired Archie. It's sickening.

Nebraska wants it. We look like we could care less. Woody - they're shutting Ware down. Do something other than trying to feed him the ball inside. It isn't working. It's leading to turnovers and easy points/threes for Nebraska.

Nebraska is playing like they want to win.....we arent

MR can leave. So incredibly undisciplined.

I'm positive he shouldn't be our head coach much longer

Saw that too. Don't remember where. Anyway, I refuse to believe this one is true. Can you imagine?

Soni nailed it. I'd say that's how most IU "fans" feel right about now
