Fire Coach Woodson Thread

The only one that feels that way to me is Dusty, because he’s the current mid-major rocket ride guy, but with truly unique IU flavor.

Drew, Pearl, Oats, etc? Their names come up quite literally every year.

Musselman could be a hot name again next year.  Bad year for Arkansas but that hasn’t been the norm.

Yes. The NCAA has zero power to stop them. Even if they tried, the schools and states would lawyer up and sue the NCAA. Virginia and Tennessee already did. There is no governing body so it’s chaos. And there truly is no cap. So even though IU may have upped their NIL by 33%, the entirety across the board may have gone up 20%. So it’s not the increase everyone might think it is. 

Maybe the Big Ten basketball should split into three divisions next year based on NIL dollars spent. The six top spending teams would be one division, then the middle 6, then the bottom 6 NIL spenders.  You would play a true round robin within your division and then play 8 games against the other Big Ten teams.  This would reward teams on coaching and player development and just not your ability to buy players. It'll never happen, but it would be fairer.

Well if you're not a huge fan of building a roster through the portal you may want us to stay away.

I don't know the answer to this personally but I'm guessing there was some us against the world type message going on. I do know they got big fat raises the day before so that shaped their speeches some. 

I usually see Leal in the summer and I plan to ask him about it. It seemed out of character for him to me. 

That’s why I didn’t take what Leal said that harsh.  It was out of character and the ‘chill out’ line to me was about the anger that got directed to the players.  There are fair and unfair attacks and IMO he was talking about the unfair ones.  I do think there are some IU fans that were offended by Leal’s comments that he wasn’t really referring to.  It was literally like a thirty second speech and every word gets analyzed in it because it was vague.

Drew, Pearl, Oates and now Muss mentioned in the same post. We have officially gotten the band back together!

We're all just kidding. Don't want @BGleas to come smack us down. 

We know I have a better chance of hitting Mega Millions tomorrow than Stevens becoming our coach. But we can dream

If that happens and woody is still head coach on Sunday I am going to seriously start to question your loyalty to the movement lmao remember nothing screams “sound financial decision” like throwing money at the Indiana University Athletic Department.

Guys there is realistically no chance Woody is let go even if he loses tonight. Im sorry but it's time to give that dream up.

Dolson and Woody will meet and say program expectations are higher, remind him that the fanbase expects him to be able to retain top in state players, and say we have all the NIL in the world, do something with it. 

Next year will be do or die for Woody. Juwan made a S16 and E8 and couldn't survive two down years. Woody has done less. At a program like IU with higher expectations, I expect one bad year and one mediocre year will not save Woody.

If it's true that QB doesn't like Dusty, it doesn't matter that he could potentially go elsewhere because we wouldn't hire him anyway. My hope for right now is that Dolson has at least used back channels to reach out to Dusty. IU should get some sense of whether he would leave a P5 job for us.

It's pure copium at this point.  Outside of Woodson going full RMK and putting Dolson in a chokehold at the end of year meeting, I think we're cooked. 

So there is still a chance.  :)

If I won, I’d be sitting down with Scott and say, I have 20 million that can go to IU basketball as soon as Woodson is fired. If not, Cigs gets it.
