I just checked Dane's twitter feed from the saved link I have, and 24 min ago he said "Thanks for saying hello", and nothing before that until you get to the thread for "Thankful for Hoosier Nation".

I'm no tech geek, but on the surface it appears as someone is using a fraudulent acct for Dane.

It was his verified account. He went and deleted the tweets.  I saw them before they were all deleted.

Yeah seems like Dane was trying to straddle the fence between fandoms and that’s basically impossible so there’s the results 

[Hovadipo]

Thought he had something, clearly didn’t, and deleted it. Shizz happens.

For coaches, assistants, players, etc. -- it seems very little good ever comes from banter with fans. It's just something you're never gonna win. Unless you're paying them a compliment or something, it's best to just avoid altogether. And even then ...

On the topic, we do need a better, more unified/organized and recognized student section. Dane has a good point there. Everyone knows the Izzone.  No one knows the Crimson Guard or whatever we call ours.  
 

I didn’t mind the tweets myself, because you can still have love for both groups.  I’m not the jealous type.  And I can be honest with myself/ourselves.  
 

Really no big deal, ultimately Dane taking the job speaks to his truest feelings. It’s pretty obvious.

I actually found myself agreeing with the Hoosier Hysterics when I saw the exchange. Such an odd thanksgiving, lol.

I read it here from someone and don't remember who but "The Woodshed" seems like a good one

Went to the Jackson State game. The bleachers on the end where the opponents shoot in the 1st half, was nothing but old people who sat and stayed quite the whole game. The opposite end were students, whicha was just super odd during free throws. I think the walls are a big factor in the student sections awkwardness. There has to be an engineer somewhere that can essentially get rid of the walls. Would probably even add some seats.

Not sure, but when kids are in school, I think those are filled with students. Seem to remember TV shots showing them behind backboard

Either way, lots of old people who just want to sit down like they're at home. It's pretty annoying.

After the Great Depression (a.k.a. the Archie Miller era), I'm kind of impressed they still go to games at all. I know young people who don't even watch the games any more.

At least they're there. Could've been empty seats if some of us Old Farts didn't care enough to show up.

No, us old guys don't chant "BS" or "Let's go Brandon" or anything else. We just appreciate good basketball, because we lived a couple of decades worth of excellent BBall.

Sure... But just having people sitting and watching TV doesn't really help the atmosphere. And I've been to two games so far and have been incredibly disappointed in the lack of Let's Go Brandon chants. 

[Hovadipo]

Only warning to stop the politics. Thanks. 

[DWB]

What politics ?? Isn't Childress first name Brandon?  (lol)

Sorry. didn't mean to upset the apple cart

Just a different crowd with students on break. Can’t expect a grayer and more seasoned crowd to replicate a student section, but that’s why they play schools like Jackson State for those games.

I love this.  This...this is why Woodson is a good coach and one of the zillion reasons Archie was garbage.
