Maybe, you could be right.  I'm not in world of people who influence IUBB.

But he got his wish in '21, it clearly hasn't worked, I'm not sure how much anyone will listen to him now.

I get it and I agree but I am in the area where he isn’t gone until he’s actually been shown the door.  He thinks he’s got this entitlement because he’s played here over 40 years ago!  He thinks he’s owed this!  He’s going out kicking and screaming and it will make it a very bad look for the University, firing a legend player and one of their own.  So you see how this isn’t a guarantee.  It ain’t over with until Matha the Mop Lady sings!

You exactly know what I am talking about!  Parasite is a bit mild to describe him!

If he gets fired he is going to make it very ugly. He only cares about himself. He will dare dolson yo fire him cause Woodson thinks he won't imo. He thinks it should be his job until Mike woodson says it's time to retire

I’m fine with bball getting a lot of NIL for the new coach.  The new coach, Scott, and donors do need some better procedures in place to avoid doing stuff like paying Leal $400K.  He’s worth half that and the remaining $200K needs to be saved or go elsewhere (other bball players or FB).

This is going to sound mean and I think Leal is a good teammate but on court production doesn't warrant $200k to me....then again, if I was being honest, all these guys getting paid what they are is a f'ing joke given the results.

Yea you're right.  2ppg should be more like $50K, most of that because he is hopefully a good teammate and locker room leader...

It is IUBB, I agree the worst move is always a possibility.

I still think it’s a big IF that we get a new coach.  We all know it needs done but the fact that Woodson doesn’t report to Dolson, which mind blowing in my opinion, creates the biggest obstacle and complication in this entire situation 

Where did this narrative start that he doesn’t report to Dolson?  It’s expressly stated in his contract in Section 2.03 that he reports to the Director of Athletics.

That narrative started about 1,000 pages back by someone who works in the athletic department.  Take it up with them.

Does Quinn Buckner in his mind take responsibility and appoint HimSelf as IU men’s head basketball coach????

Woodson knows he's protected by people above Dolson.

Scholarship is all he deserves if that since he gotten for 5 years now. I know a lot of people like Leal and all but I’m not a fan. Hopefully he will be able to sell Woodson’s house in March for him for the last bit of money he will get from Woody and the university.

100%.

If he's actually worth $400K then he should have no problem earning that somewhere else.

We all know that would never happen. 

Ultimately I couldn't care less, good for him for getting life changing money at such a young age. 

From a fan's perspective though, it does not seem like a wise allocation of finite resources.
