One would hope that Buckner, Wittman and his other biggest supporters would tell him in very plain language not to make an even bigger a$$ of himself at senior night by going off on a petty rant.

Surely something was written into separation agreement about badmouthing the fans or the University.  Right?

Hey everyone. First post here. I'm just here for the occasional bangers. I won't be chiming in too much but wanted to say hello to some fellow die hard Hoosier fans. Hoping for a fresh start with a great coach and a renewed, optimistic mindset for all of us moving into next season. Go Hoosiers

I’ve heard it does but you never know when he gets the mic

If Woody does share his grievances, it could be an 8 million dollar mistake.

Wouldn't getting into a physical altercation with your assistant be grounds for being fired? He can complain all he wants, but the truth is we have given him special treatment all around because he was a former player. 

The very fact he even got this job was because of it. Certainly not his resume. This was always my concern with hiring a former player, if it doesn't work out it's hard to separate. But I would have never imagined a former player being so clueless about this job and what it entails and be so selfish on top of it.

I'll be in a crimson Adidas tee that says Indiana Basketball across the chest.

Nope - gotta do that dance Y-M-C-A.

A number of people could have a red Indiana shirt on; has to be something unique.

Also part of why I could see May and his family being hesitant about taking the IU job now … if it doesn’t work out, a handful of lives are upside down.

so what's the word with Candidate 1A right now?.. anything besides mum?...

Still feel good but the resident insider, @Chris007, would know more. Not to put him on the spot or anything lol

Better be ready to cut the mic.

Indiana can't resist doing something stupid.

You weren’t here 4 years ago when I got it wrong. People wanted my home address. :-) but I have not heard of anyone saying no. Also I’m just a guy who shares what he hears not an “insider “

Probably the biggest reason why he should have been fired and told to clean out his office. Letting him have the microphone again is one of the dumbest things we could have possibly done. But we're IU and we like to do dumb things I guess. 

It's part of the process. Woodson disrupted the process by retiring unexpectedly, gotta make sure to follow the rest of the process or Kathy will be angry.

What would this board do if Woody got up and went on a religious rant?

Drew won a national championship at a school with four tournament appearances in its history before he got there. I could not give less of a crap about his religious preferences. Just win, baby. 

You trying to say that Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball?

Might be epic for the fans.. . but epically embarrassing to the university and Woodson...

Last time I was in Uranus, may have been the last. I leaned in the door about 4.27" and when I came out it looked like the wife spilled a small Wendy's frosty in my lap

It’s nice our next coach is on the same channel in the game before us.
