You know it's coming. We followed Miller up by saying "hold my beer" and hiring someone off the WTF list.

A lot of folks have the “we can’t do worse than Woodson” mentality right now. That’s the same mentality we had after firing little Archie and look where it got us. 

On the bright side, this hire will be a confirmation hire. Hire yet another dud and it’s the final confirmation for the fanbase that the administration doesn’t give two craps about men’s basketball.

I still think Scott has a good chance to get this hire right.

I’ve got to admit likely losing a good coach who is one of our own to UM is triggering some of my PTSD developed over the past 25 years.

Just hire Beard and get this show on the road. He’d probably leave Oxford and be in Bloomington by sunrise. (Drunk, possibly, but he’d probably still coach the team better Sunday than Woodson will). 

The coaching better than Woodson is more than a probably.  But I don’t see it happening…..and I think it will be awhile before you see him move to a job much higher caliber than ole miss.

I hope you’re right. Every sign leading up to this indicates you are, except a tweet from Jeff Goodman. We need you to be right. Lol

He’s not right lol. Without reading qanon tea leaves, the reality is Dolson has struck out on his top two options. The bright side is we won’t be hiring a coach for at least another month, so we aren’t in scramble mode yet. But this idea that Dolson has some master plan that he’s executing is obviously a load of nonsense.

I thought that after Miller. I didn't expect them to be so stupid as to hire Woodson; anyone with two functioning brain cells could tell that was an awful hire.

IU has given no reason to make us believe they'll get this one right.

I already knew this was happening I tried to tell everyone earlier. Good thing Dolson had a plan.

At the minimum, IU is in the position of starting the search early and with NIL that few can beat.

Yup, IU hired me, I haven’t played basketball since 3rd grade, but I’m well rested!

Ok could agravate it. Still his post was not correct. He could just have the condition. Nobody on here knows exactly how much he drinks. I don't care to argue over it cause in my book Nobody can say. He clearly drinks and gets intoxicated but how much and how often?

Won’t stop them, but if you notice the media is too smart to throw around such accusations, because defamation suits can be very expensive. I have said that for the sake of unity of fanbase I hope we can find a coach most of us can rally behind, it is obvious that would not be Chris Beard, 10 years from now we shall see if those people were right, or wrong like they have been with many others!

If you don’t know I can’t tell you 

[steubenhoosier]

Human nature to gravitate to the worst case scenario.

Dolson does have his guy.. 

Indiana ties

Plenty of coaching years ahead of him 

Coached in both college and the NBA

No skeletons in his closet that I’m aware of 

Lawrence Frank, c’mon down!
