I don’t need to do anything. People want to complain but don’t want to hear it when there are ways to improve the situation.

Lots of jokes here about running for the BOT.

If you can improve the status quo great. If you aren’t up to the task of running for the position, then find a way to help instead of tearing things down.

The snarky jokes and comments come across as defensive… like the only option is to criticize 

 

Do you own a mirror, sir?

You all have to stop engaging.

Let’s get back to talking about a new coach!!

Agreed. I've written 4 or 5 responses to that guy, but deleted them before posting them...

EDIT: Putting him on my ignore list (a list of ONE, btw) has removed any temptation to reply.

Queen had a mother who wanted him to stay close to home.

At least stay accurate with the facts 

Hey dreaded hump, Willard coaches Maryland, and he landed Queen, in my math book that makes Willard +1 in recruiting over Woodson, no matter how he landed him, he still won the recruiting battle.  How is that for facts Mr Hump?

There's no better feeling than winning. Dealing your opponent the deathblow, then standing over his lifeless body as the world around you leaps to their feet, falling all over each other to get a taste of your hero's … well the rest is NSFW

I’m one those fans too!  Started watching with my father when I was about 8 or 9.  I remember watching George, the 1975 and 1976 team but I never attended the school. I got my undergraduate at Ball State and my Masters at Eastern Michigan but don’t follow their basketball programs as closely but will root for them in the NCAA tournament, unless they play IU.

Growing up in rural Indiana I knew a lot of huge IU fans who never attended IU. They grew up watching IU as a family and it continued their whole life. From the first time I remember I was watching IU basketball and will until the day I die. My degree is from Indiana University even though I didn't go to Bloomington.

So if you are IUFAN 1976, did you graduate then? If so, I would hope at your age you’d find something better to do than call someone Mr. Hump.

In "news" (using that word loosely) actually related to this thread...

Trilly just chimed in. Nothing groundbreaking, but echoing what Chris said that Dolson is working on it. He also said that if the right people get on board, BP is "in line" to be the guy.

I am thrilled that IU won on the road in the Big Ten.  Period.

Mike Woodson was one hell of a ball player at IU.

He has given his all to coach at IU and to help.

I am not happy about the losses.  I'm sure that he is not either.

Wow... hard pressed to agree that Woodson has given "his all to coach at IU"... maybe cigars, wine and golf... but not coaching...

Solid player for IU forty years ago... but not coaching material.

Good advice!  That was my last post pertaining to Mr Hump!

As your campaign gets off the ground, allow me to remind you to give your constituents what they want. *Clears throat* FIRE MIKE WOODSON.

I forgot about them.  I wonder if we could lump Geronimo in that and make it +4.  Not sure if he counts though, lol

I remember when Xavier got injured...again and again.

I remember when Yogi Ferrel got injured...bell rung...

I remember when Khristian Lander... Eric Gordon...Landon Turner...Scott May...

I blame the IU Medical Center for all of the IU losses.

    I suppose that now I will have to run for Doctor...
