Yes on the first part. Not guessing either. Woodson could be flying in now either to be interviewed or to announce he is a candidate or nothing at all. 

Thanks Chris!

I’ve said this a few times, but us as IU fans, we need to give any coach that’s hired a chance. Would I be thrilled with a Woodson hire, no, but I would welcome him with open arms and wish him the best of luck to turn this program around. Hope others will be willing to do the same!

So is Mike Woodson supposedly coming in today? Baby boy #2 arrived yesterday afternoon.  Both he and momma are doing great. Safe to say Brad isn’t in his name lol 

New baby name: Michael... but you're gonna call him "Woody"?

 Any chance that a new coach could move IU from Adidas to Nike, Jordan, or Under Armour? 

There’s no chance of this. I know you hate Adidas, but not happening.

Named "Woody?" Becky? (not that there's anything wrong with that). Is he going to grow a Beard?

Congrats! Having 2 is definitely a lot different lol. We have a 4 and 1 1/2 year old boys. Love it but very stressful.

Go IU and hope we get the best coach who will turn it around!

Answering only for myself, I can say "yes we are"...

We are stalking a black SUV at the moment.  We are certifiable.

I was at Assembly hall, look for a big black SUV. It's already over there by now I'm guessing

I need Tom Allen to buy me a car. You see his car? Very nice.

For any up and coming Nate Oats fans, here's the CBS article profiling him from a few weeks back. I specifically like his multiple references to NOT running Bobby Knight motion in today's game ----- looks like somebody growing up in the midwest was paying attention. Anyway great article about how he has used math / analytics / advanced analytical scouting to give his team advantages. 

Don't think he's coming but he would be my clear number 2 ------ and the way he yelled at the LSU bench to "get the **** outta here" after the SEC championship game and his penchant for plaid jackets he does remind me of someone.

Thanks for sharing.  Awesome read.

Audi or something like that

Most coaches drive a black SUV. Dealer partnership when they sign contracts.

I'm having a great time. Haven't looked at actual news since this coaching search started. And today is why I'm here. We have posters at the Bloomington airport and taking pics of SUVs at Cook Hall. Love it.

I could see Dolson in an '86 Cutlass Supreme if he botches this hire.

My thoughts exactly. I won't be thrilled one bit but after the national media guys telling us how great Sampson, Crean, and Miller would be I'll give Mike a chance. He HAS to put together a bad a$$ staff. Miller lied to us. He told us how great his staff would be...lol

Do you have inside info? or why do you say "not happening" UCLA dropped Adidas, then under Armour, and now they are in the S16
