Let's revisit the reasons why Dolson forced Woody into retirement mid season if he didn't feel comfy that he had his replacement. Just to shut fans up? Surely it wasn't to give heads up to the all the ADs to negotiate a contract extension with their current coaches. So if he didn't feel good he had someone locked up, im left to assume it was literally done to shut the fan base up with all the boos etc. Right or way off?

I doubt seriously that it was to shut the fanbase up.

The story that's being told around is that Woodson initiated it by asking about his status for year 5, expecting to be re-coronated by Buckner, Ferguson, et al... Dolson is reported to have been willing to wait until the end of the season to have that discussion with Woodson... and that would have bought him more time to stealthily seek out The Entitled King's replacement... 

So, now, it's out and we (the fanbase and BTB) are being ridiculed and trolled on X by any number of members of the bot army.

There was also the issue of a booing fanbase and the impending appearance of candidate #1B (Dusty and UM).

Chris Jans 

(Josh Hubbard gets to come along with him)

I mean, the student section basically names itself with this option, which is a tick for Pro column in my opinion…

JANS’ FANS

 

Please don’t delete me. 
 

Edit: the students behind the basket could all have IU hand fans to wave…..

okay might just delete myself.

If we are crossing coaches off our list after a loss, there's only one possible coach that can't lose which means he can't be crossed off.....and we've come full circle back to BRAD!!!!

Gentlemen.  If it's on the interweb is has to be true.  It's like a law or something.

Random guy on a message board like the rest of us but unlike him, the rest of us are here with honest intentions. He is 100-% here to mess with people and get attention. 

the stuff he has shared has been 100% made up 

There are trolls and then there are people who pretend to be insiders

Are you teaching the class? If so I’m sure there will be a line to get in. No head butts, kicking the students or grabbing of the neck ok General.

Don’t forget the used toilet paper in D Thomas’s locker

No, not you particularly. It’s clearly a battle where they are trying to discredit you and Isaac. It becomes the narrative. And Bob filled about 2 pages today ranting about it.

I’m just ready to talk/think coaches for the next couple weeks.

Bob struggles with reading comprehension because that's exactly all we've been trying to do.

Funny you mentioned that one. Was talking with a friend about the Ben McCollum love around here and the theoretical he brought up was, “If the IU AD had a choice of McCollum and someone like, say,  Chris Jans who’s he hiring?”  Thought about that a fair bit and I’m pretty confident the answer is Jans.

Whatever dude. I never had an issue with you. I came here to talk about legit coaching candidates and call it the trolls. If you have a problem with it, move along.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks

Maybe he stole it from me.   I’ve used that one on here many times

Darn I missed a good battle with Bobby's ghost making a butt of himself again! That stinks. I just keep going over all the coaches you guys mention. To me dusty is a huge gamble and unlikely imo. I can't imagine if he wins the big 10 and leaves for iu and we suck what the fallout of that scenario would be. Not sure I want to. We should have went after him last year! Steven's would have been the only reason to wait but that now looks unlikely unless isaactor can be right lol. Nobody else mentioned is doing alot for me. Maybe giving pitino jr alot of NIL is intriguing I guess

After watching 9 years of IU basketball where they have had only  1 year of being over .500 in conference I think they all are look like an improvement

So it would be huge gamble to hire May because he won the Big Ten and might not be able to replicate that success at IU?
