If for whatever reason something happens where we don't sign Brad but sign dusty I would probably respond with a FG post or a TD but missed extra points haha

Na that’s a td with a spike in michigans face

Woody was Knights favorite player and was B1G player of the and a top 5 scorer all time.   
Fife was a hard nose player for IU but probably not legend status.   Head coach is allowed to go whatever he wants when he is in charge and he decided to get rid of Fife right or wrong 

It's perfectly fine that Fife was let go. It was a bad matchup with Woodson and it was pretty obvious from the start it wasn't going to work out with those 2. But the smear campaign was complete bs. I don't blame it all on Woodson. It was an another assistant that was likely the one feeding Rabjohns the bs for his article. There is one guy on that staff that has no morals.

Yesterday was first and goal from the 2. Today 2nd and goal from the 2 (not inside info just a joke how every day that passes without a yes makes me nervous )

If one day is a down it'll be a turnover on downs by Tuesday, excluding the weekend.

That would be the IU process that resulted in Mike Woodson.

Mmm… I wonder who all the pro-Woody burners get their info from…

Fife said in an interview with JMV it was day 2 when he knew this wasn’t going to work for him

Just listened to Fran Fracilla on the radio and they were talking about McCollum 

 

 He said McCollum reminded him of a young John Beilein with how they play and the path they have taken in their coaching career

I had not thought about that but I think it is an outstanding comparison.

 

I really like Ben McCollum and would advocate for him right behind Brad Stevens and Dusty May. I have watched Drake multiple times. To my untrained eye, they appear to have a negligible edge in talent (or are at an athleticism deficit even) on most nights but are VERY clearly better prepared and better coached. The tempo (bottom of the country...dead last) is a very valid concern but the efficiency and precision of his team makes up for that in my mind. I am confident he would be committed on the recruiting trail and would have MUCH better resources than he's ever had but the question would be: is he capable of landing talented enough players to reach the level IU fans will rightfully demand? I want IU to hire Stevens or May so I hope we don't find out but he'll be at a major school quite soon and we'll see one way or the other.

Woodson can do whatever he wants. But it's hard to feel sorry for him now that the shoe is on the other foot regarding negative articles.

First post here! But for those interested in news about coaching changes from NBA to college specifically involving the Celtics…

He was pretty open in his last interview on DD.  He said basically the entire staff was asleep at the wheel and TJD was the only one who cared about anything.

My bet is it's the the same guy who got in a fight with Woody in the locker room

The whole staff got permasnooze from Armond Hill? That would explain a lot.

He said you have to call him but nothing about if he would take it 

My thing is if all of this stuff is happening with Stevens then why has none of the national media caught wind of it. You would think a Rothstein or Goodman would be all over it.

Goodman laughed at the thought of Stevens even listening to IU the last go around.  Months later he reported what pretty much everyone else knew, that IU had offered him 7 years, $70 million.  Goodman is really just an opinion guy, not an insider.

You're wrong.  

Every day, get one more yard. Take on faith, take it to the heart.  The Waiting is the hardest part.  :)

Who is feeling sorry for him?  Seems everyone on here is pretty much in a agreement that he stunk as a head coach and needed to go

I wonder if he considered himself to be asleep at the wheel as well.  It wasn't exactly a secret that he wasn't the most active guy in terms of coaching players during games.  Pretty much separated himself on the bench.

Can we get a defensive penalty on that 1st and goal so we get another shot at 1st down again?!

Tush push unavailable?

They think all IU fans that believe in it are crazy. (Probably true). And especially for Rothstein he looks down on the IU job heavily.
