Not doing this with you man lol. I’ve said my piece. We can see things differently. Not telling you or anyone else what to think. 

I can only go by the information presented by Golden, lawyer, and UF. Have a good day

HE'S NOT LEAVING UF FOR IU!!                  :) 

And his buyout is currently over $14 million - just signed an extension.

whether he's a creeper or not. 

Because it's a better job and in a better conference? Or why not? 

He just left San Fran for Gainsville....

Playing the long game to get his team to play in this tourney instead of the the ncaa tourney.  Crown him

Golden, outside of that probe, should be on our short list of candidates. 

When we get to the point of needing a short list of candidates we can argue over the worthiness of Golden. 

Until then it is all about the fire Woody train!

Good reasons!

1. IU is not a better job than UF.
2. I'm a double Hoosier and my youngest is at UF. The campuses, location, town , and vibe between Gainesville and Btown are remarkably similar.
3. The B1G is not a better conference that the SEC.

I still think he’s 100% gone, but it’s hard not to see some tomfoolery that has @Hornsby so concerned. If you’re really waiting for worse “optics” it is curious what happens if the inverse happens and he rattles off a bunch of really good wins. Feels like a potential two way street. Although I personally think the bar for saving his job is way too high to reach, but the “need” for bad losses to justify it internally does make you wonder.

I wonder if the season could be saved if Kenya took over.. I wonder if Scott has thought of that. This is the best roster of talent since 2016 and they are out of the tournament at this point.

I’ve been to a lot of college campuses and Gainesville is probably #2 behind Btown for me. It’s Btown with tropical weather lol, I nearly went for grad school. It was on the short list. Very cool place.

I would say the B1G is a better conference.  Not any more.  Can B1G get back to the better conference? Sure but they better pump money into it like the SEC did over 10 years ago.    B1G has an image problem and right now the talent in the game is heading other places besides the B1G

I don't think Scott wants the season to be "saved."  I think he wants to rub Woody's, Buckner's, and anyone else involved, nose in this pile of crap.  Make it as bad and as ugly as possible, so they have zero support from anyone and you can tell them to F off.

Because Woodson has lost the locker room and the product on the floor isn’t getting better, I think most of us want to see a change now just to see if it can bring life back to this team and at least make the tournament

This thinks always strike me as quite obviously people making semi-educated guesses and trying to pass it off as inside info.  
 

I can’t even imagine how that internal discussion on something like that would go:  Ok, we’re all in agreement that if we get blown out the next two games, coach goes. If he keeps it to single digits both games, he stays. Single digits in one game? Quinn flips a ceremonial coin. Ok…good meeting everyone. Processes were had.

Makes you wonder if the University has just given up on ever being elite again in basketball? Look at our last 2 hires, neither were ever going to make IU elite again!

Ryan on the postgame basically said that that Woodson thought he was outsmarting Willard at the end and didn't have a backup plan if they didn't switch up on the last possession.  The first 22 minutes or so is of the analyzing of the end of the game.  The guy needs to go!!!

If so, I'd think that either now (with 4 days for the staff to regroup before the next game) or after UCLA (with a 9 day layoff) would make the most sense, logistically. Benefit of now is you still have more runway to salvage something. Benefit of waiting is decreasing the chances of a turnaround that results in pressure to make a Diebler type hire.
