No, the decision is based off of protecting whatever goodwill is left in your product.  That isn't an emotional decision on the part of the decision maker.  I think any chance of violence is infinitesimally small and isn't more than any other large event gathering.  People booing the team every game, chanting for the coach to be fired, doing mass walkouts, etc. are things you don't want to have to try and sell as a decision maker.  That is hurting thr brand I have a fiduciary responsibility to protect as one of those decision makers.

Emotional responses aren't devoid of logic.  The two are not mutually exclusive.

Was struck by how tired and lethargic he looked in last night’s press conference. He’s always been pretty stoic, but he needed a blood pressure check last night.

1,000,000% agree. It was striking how docile he was.

One of the reasons I’m thinking it might soon be a mutual decision that his coaching tenure is officially over mid-season.

A while back I posted about the possibility of Woodson having mental health issues and Kathy you made a comment like "you're warm".. sooooo..is that part of the issue? Is IU keeping something hush hush since Woody is a "legend"?

I don’t believe he’s ever been on anyone’s list, including Dolson’s. He’s a nice guy and I know he’s reached out to IU previously, but several things would need to change if he were to be considered if / when we have an opening at the end of the season.

Here we go. The thread is vibrant today. Let the games begin!!!

20 years as a fan. This is the all-time low right?

Woodson’s results feel like rock bottom, but the bizarre online contingent scolding fans may be even more concerning. I don’t think that goes away when Woodson does… hopefully there’s just less to bicker about when we field a competitive team again.

Right, we spend more time attacking each other than talking about the current state of the program. 

It's just Ckatchy. The rest of us are pretty united and mostly rational here. There's really only one contrarian.

Look at the bright side in 40 years your opinion will matter!

“Rational”? Lol. Curious as to what makes me a “contrarian” on this? Neither you nor anyone has been able to communicate that.

No, but it appears you may be slightly autistic (genuine observation, I myself am probably on the spectrum) or a GPT bot.

From the article: 

In the 2008-09 season, when Tom Crean put his first IU team together with pipe cleaners, Gorilla glue and a string of guys no other Big Ten program wanted, Indiana lost 17 of 18 conference games. Precisely two of those losses were by 25 or more points — one on Jan. 10, the other on Feb. 7.

An excellent article.  A little emotional, but excellent nonetheless.

You know someone who has donated at least $10M to IU? That’s a small list, but great. And yeah, Tracy was a potential roadblock, to say the least, but she was far from the only one. What reasons did your friend give you for why it wasn’t done, as well as why BS spoke about the job publicly in the manner he did? 

I don’t my dad does.  Brad was willing to take the job but Tracy and the kids weren’t ready to move yet.  And Brad was happy in Boston.  It’s not like he was miserable or anything and willing to fight his family but coaching at IU has been a dream of his.  
 

This is where Whitten could come in handy.  Send her to Boston and stroke that massive ego Tracy apparently has.  Give her what she wants.  Let her be the queen of Bloomington for the next 20 years or whatever.

So, Scott Drew is our target?   I guess he might be a better option than me.

I just got to say that whenever we finally fire retire woodson kathy with a c is close enough she goes with him lol

This doesn’t hit the way you think it does Katch. 
I completed medical school at IU

I’m autistic because I think IU will keep Woodson through the end of the season? Thanks for that purely unemotional diagnosis.

The Dan Dakich tweet that was taken down was a Retweet. Boy is it bad and not even a screenshot I can post because of all the language.
