I guarantee you Woody has no clue who Dolson is hiring.

Yea.  As mad as Woody is right now, and I know he is being very difficult, Dolson really can’t afford to have him in the loop.  He would tell everyone, he doesn’t care, just like the poster’s friend.  Woody is probably conveying his best guess.

He is going to win tonight at the buzzer with the picket fence.

Alright, boys, this is the last shot we got! We're gonna run the picket fence at 'em! Merle, you're the swingman... Jimmy, you're solo right! Everett, Merle should be open on the other side of that fence! Now, boys, don't get caught watchin' the paint dry!

Some people think we've got one locked up. That's kinda what I believe too.  amazingly quiet however.  Some have also hinted our NIL, B1G, revenue sharing, etc is very attractive and might draw an unexpected name.  I've seen this in a couple places.  Also, not gonna be shocked if McCollum ends up at Iowa this year and that is a very interesting one to get an eye on.  

I like upper 40's, lower 50's for my ideal coach.  Most (all) of the coaches I listed fall in that category.  

Iowa may be a terrible job moving forward. Listening to a Michigan football podcast a few weeks back and they were saying IOWA NIL is in bad shape. They singed a bunch of contracts with players and then people didn’t donate. So 1 guy has been cutting checks to meet all the NIL deals through the end of the school year. Doesn’t sound like the type of situation that’s going to be a good place for any coach. NIL will go to football before basketball there as well.

Does this info align or conflict with what you’ve been hearing? 

I have not heard either is out. Have heard things picked up towards the end of last week and through the weekend. 

I believe Scott B heard this but it would be super surprising that Woodson would know what is going on. He has not made any friends in the building since his retirement. I spoke to one staff member recently who said they had not heard a single name since Feb. 13. But I don't think they are actively asking how the search is going.

So I live in Eugene Oregon now and have a close friend with coach back in Bloomington. Coach just set me up with seats behind the bench for tonight's game. My friend just now had this conversation with coach.

Put up a sign or tell us what you will be wearing. Maybe put something up for btownbanners

Just got off the line with a friend that's close to CMW. He said both Drew and Stevens are definitely out. Also no Beard due to off court history concerns. He states Greg McDermott is one name that hasn't been floating around that Dolson is focused on.

No thanks….we need a home run…..too many past negatives in those stats

Scott_b(ehind the bench).  I prefer the other one personally.  But thanks for the info!

[Chris007]

I want to clarify I like Greg McDermott and would be happy with him as our coach.

Thanks! Was thinking it would be weird for Woodson to just be chatting up a mutual friend back in Btown about a coaching search he’s not really involved in and on bad terms with the AD staff during a “win and in” stretch in the PNW

Which reminds me......I try not to disturb my wife in the morning by being quiet, so I pee on the side of the bowl.

And still she complains that it ruins the taste of her cereal.

Hey Scott. Thanks for sharing. Would be a good hire.

I can't imagine he is talking to anyone since his "retirement" nor are they talking to him. Just his staff.

Also, enjoy the game and sitting behind the bench. I would particularly pay attention to how the staff interacts with the players and each other.
