Exactly. FIL compensation (Fan In Limbo).

Why would that delay the firing, i mean retiring?

Agree. Especially with the portal opening. I’m wondering more which coaches leave. Walsh? Hunter?

I wonder if Ohio State going with Diebler could in any way mean that Dusty told them no and could mean something for us at all. Still me clinging to hope I guess.

The fans should get some type of compensation for watching the last 25 years. Some of those teams were sp bad having to watch that tape would probably violate the Geneva Conventions.

Here my thing.

1. I’d wouldn’t put the odds at 0% with how much the fanbase has been turned off.

2. I think May would be the only one with enough internal support if a move were to be made now. (I still strongly believe better options potentially available).

3. The transfer portal timing would be incredibly tricky with getting a coach in the tournament. Who reaches out to potential players? Lots of behind the scenes planning would be necessary for a team needing 7-10 portal players.

4. New coach could bring a certain amount with him. But the transfer portal timing during the first 2 weeks would be tricky.

Because they would want to keep Mike if it doesn’t work out with another coach. We want him to keep working the portal.

Maybe Dusty told them he's going to Louisville.

Watching Auburn play basketball is night and day between watching Indiana play. 
 

Thanks Mike!

I think that’s because Dusty told OSU no and is going to UL

I was wondering about the timing and how that could work against a change.  What date for the portal close?  Wondering if a new staff would have time to both fill a lot of openings and build a staff

I imagine it'd be difficult in today’s game to find guards that want to feed the post the whole time.

I don’t know where to put this, but currently returning from Spring Break (you can still spring break even though you have graduated correct)?

No.  The beach was so crowded yesterday that I declare Spring Break over forever

Watching any Sec team play has been night and day watching any B1G team play and it’s been that way for a couple years now.   Different sport being played

I would put a change at 1%. But if we’re waiting for a Pearl to finish before talking to him then I wouldn’t retire Woodson yet.

That’s unfortunate. I think I just heard Jimmy say Auburn is the only team in the country in the top 10 of both offense and defense metrics. 
 

Wow.

Gotcha, yeah I figured maybe that could be the case as well. So if it’s not Dusty when you say “if our next coach is in the tournament..”, is it fair to still hope there’s someone other than Dusty we could be getting other than it for sure being Woodson coming back?

Wow. 

UConn is 1 in offense and 11 in defense so I would take that one also

I don’t know what it looked like on TV, but in person I knew we were in trouble before warmups were over with no XJ. The athleticism difference was stark. Even with X that probably was a 15pt+ L.

I’m still holding out hope for someone.
