Exactly. How in the world did Woody coach in New York? 

I know, that baffles me.  Maybe when he was younger was like that but at his crotchety old age, he’s gotten thinned skin and less patience

Holy hell we've all been going through this on here for awhile. I personally am entering the anxiety zone. Which I can handle, but at certain point it leads to chronic masturbation instead of meds. Also which I can obviously handle. It's just my coworkers and others who may be put off by this. So, for the sake of others someone please. HEAR SOMETHING!!

Booing is all just part of the hump.  

They are mooing because of the hump!   It just sounds like booing!  Although, it could be some type of mating call!

I have not heard anything like that, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. IUPD has officers who work with the basketball team for home and away games. So if something happened then hopefully they know about it

The ScottDolsonBurner account was asked point blank if there were death threats, why wasn't the media reporting it and why wasn't there police investigation?

The burner account's reply was 'there are IUPD that work with the athletic department'.

To which the matter of reply was 'you literally did not answer any of my questions.'

Thanks, was just curious if you had heard anything. The burners are now piling on Jim Coyle now. Something has them all stirred up and it was kinda simultaneous last night, and I really don't think something like threats would be something that could be kept out of the media. 

 

FWIW, Tyme has now started tweeting replies to the ScottDolsonBurner account.  Would not be surprised if they either work in conjunction or are even the same account.

It should be capped imo. They are already getting free college. It's nothing more than the nba 2.0 now.

Maybe if this was Purdue.

They aren't mooing...they are wooing.  As in Woooooooodson.

Because they are subject to legal decisions.  As much as I dislike the NCAA organization, they didn't want the current landscape.  BUT because of how unreasonable they were, athletes took them to court and ended up with an even bigger piece of the pie than they could have ever imagined.

Unfortunately but there needs to be some structure, salary based performance and a contract.

The concept of NIL was supposed to be pay for endorsements and use of the student's name, image and likeness. What we have is a bastardization of that concept... and it's a free-for-all payment to lure talent to your school. That desperately needs to be fixed... 

But with that said, if a school is paying you 6 figures to play basketball, is it too much to ask that you actually perform? Same goes for the coach... Woodson is paid an obscene amount of money to do what he has yet to do at Indiana University - recruit, develop and coach young men to play basketball well at Indiana University. He's clueless, and entitled and full of himself. He is adamant that he has done his job while clearly underperforming in the recruiting front, grossly lacking in the ability and willingness to develop talent and skills, and absolutely clueless regarding in-game coaching, player substitution and putting his team in a position to win games.

Drizzle, drazzle, druzzle, drome... time for this one to go home.

Exactly. You got guys like galloway making more monety than 99% of workers and we are told we can't boo him. It is totally out of control.

I think that i read a couple of years ago when the NIL was rolling out that IU had arranged graduate students to work with the athletes on financial planning. Maybe the program doesn't exist anymore. Im sure some others here will know the current situation.

[TTT 1,050]

Actually, if high performance is the goal pay accordingly as in pay ((half) starvation NIL)) if there even has to be something like NIL. And slash all these high coaching and related salaries as well….(athletes wanted their share as high coaching and related salaries tv contracts etc paved the way).
In Hollywood there was the $20,000,000 club that certain movie actors belonged to based on their success and popularity to get them.  Not sure what it is currently.  However, Hollywood and movies and tv shows nowadays is (mostly) trash.

I posted last week that she’d be back shortly after we lost to Maryland.  The pattern has become too obvious.  Maybe she works for the basketball team’s social media department or something and is being sent here to calm the fan base down after multiple consecutive losses.  Maybe she knows something, maybe she doesn’t.  But I’d guess by her bland, vague, repetitive answers that what little she knows is Woodson’s side of things.

And she certainly isn't "calm[ing] the fan base down"... her appearance has always shown the opposite effect.

I think she is a joke. Either a troll or a woodson paid shill.

I would add that the revenue sharing is capped. The cap is $20.5M per school for this first year it will be offered. That amount is divided at the discretion of the school as to the amount each sport and athlete receives. Title IX also factors in to that but it's unclear exactly what that means.

As for NIL, there is no way the NCAA could cap or otherwise hinder an athlete's ability to earn money from other sources at this point. You're absolutely right that they did it to themselves by being reactive instead of proactive and tried so hard to maintain the status quo of "amateur" athletes while raking in billions of dollars. As for the schools having any say in NIL matters, it does make sense when you consider that most of a coach's salary comes from basically that so it would be hypocritical of them to say they couldn't do that for the athletes as well. 

What is really needed are binding contracts. I don't see that happening until there is some sort of CBA which itself requires several steps before happening.

Anyways, since we have a bad team despite spending around $6M in NIL, let's fire Mike Woodson and get a competent coach in here.

[Hornsby 2,623]

Here is 750k to play basketball but please don't boo me it will hurt my feelings. They wanted to be paid like the pros so now they get to be treated like the pros. They can't have it both ways.
