Scott didn’t want to ruffle any feathers, so he brought Woodson back for year four. The yes man did what they put him in the role to do, and the guy we could’ve gotten is now sitting alone in first place 70% of the way through the conference season. cybergates 1

Exactly!!! Iufan93 1

In year 1 at a football school he is closing in on winning the Big Ten when he had 0 expectations this year. He has already laid a foundation for success. He is contemplating leaving after winning a Big Ten title and coming home to a blender of a situation where he is now the most scrutinized employee in the state of Indiana with a fan base starving for success. If it doesnt work out immediately people will be calling for his head in no time. cybergates 1

Michigan don’t want to pay their basketball coach as much as what we will offer Plus, as has been mentioned, there are a few institutional things (admissions, NIL) that make the IU program more competitive than UM. Hopefully, that plus Dusty's roots here makes this an appealing jump.

I still think DM could be our next head coach; however, the fishbowl of the IU basketball program is, could pose another issue. Iufan93 and JPCIVOP 2
