Agree.  And all the nasty DMs are stupid and out of line.

That said, none of these death threats are real.  It’s not like any college coach or player has ever needed security or ever faced an assassination attempt.  It’s just dumb people, some of who may not even be IU fans, typing nasty stuff into their phone. This all gets blown out of proportion.

Again, unless that means we've been talking to non-active coaches,  and perhaps have a verbal deal in place with one...

Which would not be Shaka smart

It goes far beyond alleged death threats. Woodson, his players, and his Twitter burners have been spinning the blame the fanbase narrative for over a year. And if you’re getting crappy DMs from fans then just turn off your DMs. It’s absolutely nothing unique to IU fans.

You’d probably be shocked by what people in academia / universities say about many consultants and some of the perspectives and attitudes they exhibit.

I'm a consultant and my wife is in academia. 

Both groups live in their own bubbles and have some very weird perspectives on what they perceive as the "real world".

Alright boys and girls we’ve got a flight tracking update:

The plane from Bloomington has arrived in Teterboro. 
 

Two more planes are scheduled to leave Teterboro soon heading for Bedford.

Woodson views himself as a perpetual victim and has instilled that mindset in his team. We need to completely clean house with the program. 

Why do these guys even have their social media DMs open on their accounts??

Agree on that. A very mansplain-ish tone lol

This little exchange doesn't really instil a lot of confidence.  Bozich, although calling out the poster's hyperbole, is still indirectly admitting a decent portion of the fan base wouldn't be thrilled with the Brownell hire.

I think if Bozich is right, it's because lots of people don't know enough about Brownell. The die-hard fans, who actually know his resume? I think the number would be higher than 75%.

absolutely wild. Truly an ignorant decision on their part....

Actually... we play like DMs bother us. You know what, it all makes sense.

Someone falsely identifying themselves on the internet to get attention? That's just crazy talk :)

She told me the fanbase was the problem. Since she uses "Spellcheck" (and maybe Grammarly) she must be the most intelligent among us.

I told you “the fanbase was the problem”? When did I ever say that?

Nobody should receive death threats over a basketball game no matter how much money they do or don't make.

Common sense.

Bedford, MA

I think that's what is being referenced here.
