Not sure if that account knows anything, but I don't doubt they're aiming higher it's the pulling it off part I'm skeptical of.

I agree he needs to stay and face the music.

Every person responsible for hiring him does. Every. Single. One.

I had forgotten about this anecdote. Was that in Season on the Brink?

Feinstein may have touched on it now that I think about it.  I first learned about it second hand from a friend of Knight who got a call informing him that he was responsible for raising $100,000 for the Landon Turner Trust Fund.  That was a tidy sum in 1981 – about half the amount Coach Knight was paid by Indiana University in salary that year.

Talk about inflation!  Forty-five years ago $200,000 could get you an NCAA championship.  These days just an invitation to the NIT will run you more than 20 times that much (if you can get boosters to kick in for the NIL).  I suppose coaching in the NIT would cost you extra.

Never thought I’d get here, but I’m on the Beard train. 
 

Only way for it to happen is for Whitten to get out in front and be the one to sell it publicly. Will be plenty of naysayers…until he starts winning. 
 

Big Red can sponsor the post-game show.

I have zero doubts Beard would win here, he can flat coach. I'd possibly be willing to give him a chance if it was demonstrated that his issues were solidly in the past; but I'm not the one doing the background check and I don't know what else there may be, IIRC it's been said there's issues that haven't become public.

IU would never make that call so it's irrelevant.

Buckner might just take an IU funded private jet out of town, again.

But he drinks too much. Lol. Let's hire Michael Lewis. I always thought knight was about second chances. Everyone online says beard.

I didn’t watch a minute of this game.  It looks like I made the right choice.  I’m just so ashamed with what IU basketball has become.  Embarrassing doesn’t even come close as to how to describe this program.  I don’t see how you can allow Woodson to coach another game.  I’ve said it before that Stevens is 1A and Beard is 1B.  That’s my list.  You put the absolute full court press on Stevens.  You make that guy sick with how much you’re on his @$$.  If he says no, go with Beard.  That dude has made Texas Tech and Ole Miss relevant programs.  I reiterate, Texas Tech and Ole Miss!  It’s time to nut up and go get an elite head coach.

It's more than drinking, but if he has a drinking problem a fishbowl like job like IU is probably not a good idea.

Michigan is going to shoot 50 threes against us.

Four years of this defense and MW cannot make the connection to early 2000s NBA and modern basketball. Mike Woodson basketball has been the definition of insanity. Ridiculous. 

Out of the 50 3s attempts 45 of them will be wide open.

Every time Scott sees the pro-Woody donors and trustees, it has to be an extremely satisfying spoken or unspoken "I told you so."

[reconmkd 4,565]

So glad I went to bed at half time. Jesus what a mess. I have seen JV teams run better offense and defense compared to that crap show last night. And the same ol' geriatric response post game, just got figure this out, can't lose any home games, so and so played like crap. How about this, YOU CAN'T COACH WORTH A CRAP!!!!!

Archie and Woody have sucked the joy out of Hoosier hoops. Zero swagger. Zero hope. Just bad basketball. Outmatched on the sidelines every game.

Yes, these two are responsible for sucking the joy out of our IU fandom. They both suck, but Woody is the worst.

[Pagoda 1,311]

I checked in on Tyme, still not tweeting after he deleted all his posts a few days ago.  Maybe he finally came to grips with being 100% wrong.

I stopped watching at halftime. The sooner this sideshow ends the better.
