I said a week but was only trying to estimate when our season would end, assuming we received a tournament bid. As for what you’ve heard, it’s accurate. When it got hot after the Iowa and Illinois games, he wanted SD to publicly support him by saying he was coming back next year. Dolson told him that any evaluation of his performance was a post-season issue, and Woodson didn’t like that. He sought help from others and was told that we weren’t going to do what he wanted. I think he saw the writing on the wall and realized he wouldn’t survive. I’m not privy to every last detail and discussion, but that’s how it unfolded. The discomfort in certain circles at IU (and from some very prominent alumni and friends) is palpable. He was and is extremely well thought of by a number of people, and no one wanted things to end this way. He’s been connected to IU for nearly 50 years, and that’s helped him build a number enduring relationships. Unfortunately, there were a few people who were concerned that his hiring would someday result in a less than happy departure, so they’ve proved to be prophetic.

It used to be a no-no, but I’ve been told there are exceptions to that “rule”. I believe the period is outside of the quotation marks when the quote captures a phrase. My grammar post was directed toward 007 Chris as a joke, and he seemed to receive it as such. I realize why so many attacked me over it, however.

It’s why it didn’t happen. We knew there wasn’t any advantage to an early termination. It gave us nothing in terms of the next coach.

They’re a sure sign.

No, he wasn’t. He probably would’ve been in the next week, but he wasn’t then.

What question haven’t I answered? I don’t post everything I know, but I haven’t dodged any questions.

I realize plenty don’t want to address the truth of what happened, but that’s what happened. And he didn’t forgo anything.

I said none of this . . . You’re reading someone’s fictitious musings. You’re often late to the Party.

He was also involved in the last two dismissals, as well as Woodson’s deal. Very directly involved.

I told you “the fanbase was the problem”? When did I ever say that?

You’d probably be shocked by what people in academia / universities say about many consultants and some of the perspectives and attitudes they exhibit.

About posts on an IU basketball forum? That’s up to you. I certainly don’t understand why anyone would be surprised or upset that we have yet to name a new coach.

I decide where we dine, so no issue exists. Ever.

I responded to a post wondering if today was a good day to monitor FlightAware (I said it was not). Anything else I’ve stated has been factual, as well. Lastly, anyone who gets pissed off on a Friday because of what someone posts on an IU basketball forum needs to examine their priorities.

Spellcheck is a specific piece of software, which is why I capitalized it. Unfortunately, you weren’t able to utilize it to correct the grammatical errors in your reply.

“Grammarly” is great, even though Spellcheck (ironically) says otherwise.

So much misunderstanding in one post.

It’s “you’re” . . . Remember, I reside in academia.

Yes, I told you.

It may take a few days after that last game, but this is the correct time frame.

I told you exactly what happened with Woodson, and why, and I’ve insulted no one.

I assume this is a tongue in cheek response.

It’s not because they have busy schedules.

I wasn’t proven wrong at all. Woodson made a power play that changed the game for IU.

Not what I said, implied or suggested. We aren’t talking directly with active coaches yet. To their representatives either directly or through an intermediary? Yes. There’s a distinction in there. No need for me to try and explain it further.
