No, it wasn't aimed at you my man or anyone specifically. But after IU wins, I'm going back through the last 24hrs of posts so if you catch a stray, I'm sorry kind of. I'm with you on Calbert being a GOAT 

Don’t think we stand a chance…and I hope you get the opportunity to post this after the game lol

I looked at the btb calendar and next week is our scheduled yearly site maintenance.  We put cold weather air in the tires,  change the oil and filter,  make sure the dipstick fits securely, wash the side mirrors and empty the beer cans and McD bags from the back seat.  All in all it takes about a week. 

Don't forget about the old fries under the seat!

There's always a chance and when there's not, there's luck

We save them until we have several 5-gallon buckets full and then drive them up to West Laffy and scatter them around campus.

This thread is going to be awesome after we lose by 25 tonight and don't have another game for a week.

Unless Woodson coaches the game of his life and we only lose by 10. One can dream I guess.

I give us better odds of winning in Mackey or at Michigan State than I do at winning in Madison. Wisconsin owns us period. Heck I remember them taking us down in the btt when we had zeller and were the number one seed.

I think they beat the year before in the BTT too.

I’m a little inclined to write something pro-Dusty, not because IU should make a change now but because I’ve seen some folks say he’s Not It or he’s just like Arch and I think there are reasons he’s a cut above (and as far as we can tell would meet my criteria above). But idk that the time is right.

The grapevine from Trilly that he wants the job is enough for me right now.

Conditional hypothetical here: Dusty May has a strong showing in the tournament. In this scenario IU has only 1 chance to hire him, so after this year if don’t hire in the offseason we can never have the chance to hire him again…. Do we want to move on the opportunity?

I'll die on the hill that we got screwed out of the #1 overall seed for the NCAAT.

Which game was it when the nobody went for 30 plus on us. Making every three he put up?

In this circumstance then I think you have to try to make it work, yes. Especially in your scenario where he stacks another good tourney run, I think you see if you can work with Woody, Quinn etc. to massage him into retirement or some senior program advisor role or something

Woodson will not step aside and Dolson won’t fire him either.  I guess we are moving on

We need a CHANGE AGENT within a leadership role at IU 

[Home Jersey 7,174]

Just saw this now and started listening. Will post anything that stands out. SIAP. 

EDIT: Kinda weird Dolson is doing this pod with 414 followers on x.com. Early impression is that this is an amateur-ish interview. 17 mins in is where it starts to get a little more interesting. Just a softball interview to get talking points out there. Nothing I consider noteworthy.

100% correct once dolson hired him I knew we were stunk with him for a long time unless he leaves on his own. But why would he? He gets to golf with his buddy Quinn and gets paid a ton. Life is great for woodson.

This thread alone is about coaching candidates since January of 2021 and the threads before this one represent IU trying to find a men’s basketball coach during the 21st century (since about 2000).

Maybe, someday (1st quarter century 2025-2026) IU will find a men’s basketball coach or it’s going to be a long uneventful IU men’s basketball century.

Quarter of the way there. Buckle up
