I will say after talking to some people this morning there was a meeting that took place with Dolson and the team to discuss some fan's behavior. As I always tell my wife every fanbase has some idiots as fans and were no different at IU. That's all I know

Dolson to team….”Listen fellas, you want the booing to stop? Start winning! I shouldn’t have to have this conversation again!”

I would crack my **** up if they threatened to kick people out for it or just asked people to be nice and not boo.  I would hope the fans would let them have it.

Oh, please please please try to start removing fans for booing....students will have a field day with that one! The refs will be stopping the game every 5 minutes for disruptions in the stands...terrible idea....

Sounds like  Dolson getting them prepared for the Michigan game. It's going to be a hoot .

Almost zero good college basketball players ever become good college basketball coaches.

Superstars... probably not a high percentage, but I would venture to guess A LOT of good college basketball coaches were college basketball players. Painter, Bob Knight, Jay Wright, Mark Pope, Billy Donovan, Scheyer, and Coach K... just off the top of my head.

Maybe Woodson is demanding the Roy WiIlliams treatment, where any negative outburst or opposing team apparel is grounds for immediate physical removal from the stadium.

I believe there is a small subsection of the fanbase that is taking it too far. I believe a meeting like that is probably necessary. However, I have some doubt whether the meeting was to address the actual, serious issue in whole or to deflect some blame of failure to the fanbase. I have no inside knowledge here, just vibes as the kids say.

Yep. I could see Woodson's defenders try to use some wingnut's actions try to shut down any dissenters. It won't work, but I could see them take this course of action. 

But, this is exactly the kind of thing that people on this board have alluded to - things are going to get worse if they allow Woodson to keep coaching and he keeps showing his basic incompetence. 

I want to emphasize that I think it's absolutely wrong that any fans step over the line and make threats. But, the fans are absolutely frustrated and letting him continue to coach is going to increase frustration. 

This is on IU...

It's also on those individuals, not the fanbase.

I’d suspect an email to season ticket holders and students about supporting the team before the Michigan game.

Or explaining that when the Purdue fans are cheering you on that means you’re actually doing something wrong.

People were booing pregame as soon as video of Woodson came up on jumbo screen.  The Board of Trustees forget Indiana fans & alumni know terrible basketball when they see it. And we’re seeing it.

I would not boo players but again when you are paying these guys six million bucks they are no longer amateurs and yes their feelings may get hurt. This could all be avoided by canning the king but they will keep him and let it get way worse.

Well, they’d have to remove Woodson for wearing ties with the opposing team’s colors, so go for it.

He’s got his tie for the UM game.

I wonder how that went…

“Our coach, who we should have never hired and definitely should have fired last year, but didn’t, is being booed at home. How can we fix it, and how did this happen?”

We are completely unserious.

[Papacap 593]

Blaming fans for booing is like a person on my 600 pound life blaming the food. 

[Home Jersey 9,225]

Let’s face it

Indiana only hired Woodson because of Quinn Buckner, Scott Ferguson, the Simons and Cooks.

Indiana only retained Woodson last offseason because of Quinn Buckner’s influence + the big money from his pals.

Indiana hasn’t fired him yet because of Quinn Buckner and those same rich friends. 

They’d bring him back next year if they possibly could, but Mike screwed the golden goose he was gifted. IUBB is being held hostage.

The lady that checks my tix/seats is ready for the king to go too, so I think I will be safe if I were to boo anymore, lmao!!!

I do not believe that the record is what is keeping Woodson around. 

I'm not sure why that resulted in crying reactions. This statement probably wasn't interpreted correctly lol
