Just now, IUc2016 said:

FIRST off, this was absolutely the right decision. No doubt about it. 

However, I feel for Archie, the staff, and their families. yes they made a lot of money, but they have to be disappointed that this didn't work out. They brought absolutely zero off the court issues and recruited top character kids. Really wish it would have worked out. Good luck Archie at your next job, I really do hope it works out for you.

LAST: Dolson, get it right. I am tired of watching IU be in the news for losing and firing coaches. The Administration owes the fans a whole lot for sticking with this dreadful program for all its mishaps and embarrassments. So dammit, get it right. 

Extremely well put. It seems the entire organization during his tenure was filled with solid people - both coaches and players. Best of luck to them.

And we don't have to look at a picture of Archie picking his nose anymore!

Hey, I'm as pleased as you all are with the news, but keep in mind this is only half the equation.  And while we're in a state of euphoria for the moment, it could be shortlived if Dolson doesn't make the right hire.

Only the first step.  We need to compete the transaction before we all start the real celebration.  And I hate celebrating a man getting fired, but it was time.

[JudahRMK]

Bout time they get serious

[mamasa]

Truly hope that fans don't act like a**holes toward Archie. It just wasn't the right fit. 

[JSHoosier]

Don't want to see a person fired, but this was deserved.  Now please for the love of all that is good, GET THIS HIRE RIGHT.

I will indeed say that when we first got Archie I was pretty pumped and thought that all he needed was IU’s resources and he’d do well, but definitely turned out to be wrong. I wish him the best, but this job was too much for him and he couldn’t figure it out. He’ll be successful at a school with much less expectations than we desire here at IU.  Glad to see us being serious and getting rid of him though. 

[Bobman1]

Honestly it feels kind of terrible cheering on somebody’s termination, especially a guy who is a good dude through and through, but it’s hard not to feel a sense of excitement or hope again about IU hoops today.

The easy decision was made.  Now the difficult decision in hiring a winner. 
 

Good luck to Archie. Seemed like a good guy and family. He’ll land on his feet somewhere.

The correct decision here. Hope everything works out well for CAM and IU.

Time for the avatar change

Lets also acknowledge. 12 other people were fired today as well. 
 

Best of luck to our former staff.

I am not very bright so it will take me a couple years to realize it was a bad hire anyway so I am happy
