He's never seen a double team he didn't think he could work through. 

How much of that is what Woodson is telling him to get the ball and score when he's in the paint or at the rim? To me it looks like he's been coached to do that.

One thing I read last night from Rabby that is another reason for change is agents are getting programs to overpay because the demand is so big. Plus if it's a program on shakey ground like IU they're asking for an additional 50K to go to that kind of program. Plus they're asking for a lot more upfront money. I just don't think we want Woodson making those kind of decisions for us.

In fairness, his coach has never seen a hump that he didn't think he could work through.

In case some aren't clear on Buckner's term on the BoT.  He was appointed by the Governor and his term expires in July 2025.  At that time, our current governor will be the ex-governor and the new governor may have other ideas than re-appointing QB.

It's not going to happen but Alford would be better than Woodson so that would be an improvement. That said he won't be the HC at IU

6. Don’t believe the rumor that this is Dolson positioning himself publicly in an internal battle with QB. To be kind, that’s misinformed. To be accurate, it’s nonsense to those who know those two.

Thats all for now.

Welcome to the board, nice post. On this point, do you think Dolson and QB see eye to eye and are working together? How do you interpret all the noise in the media being generated recently about Woody's contract and players potentially leaving. Just BAU?

People are getting way ahead of themselves. Some reality:

1. Buckner has great influence, but he’s not solely pulling the levers here, at least not in the way he did when he forced Glass’s hand on Crean;

2. Dolson is in charge, but he understands that situations like this require internal vetting and consensus before anything happens. This is a group sport;

3. There are some very important stakeholders who would need to do an “about face” on Pearl for him to be hired;

4. If he remains, Woody will shake up his staff;

5. The player defection possibility is very real, as is the Woodying;

6. Don’t believe the rumor that this is Dolson positioning himself publicly in an internal battle with QB. To be kind, that’s misinformed. To be accurate, it’s nonsense to those who know those two.

Dang, I love the first post. Might as well come out with the guns blazing. Can't wait for post #2

That very well could be true.

He would've put his head down and tried to bull his way to the basket and either a) got trapped and turned the ball over; or b) gotten an offensive foul. 

So true. 

HOWEVER, that play on Sunday where X threw it ahead to him and he was triple teamed under the basket, but still scored with the foul. That was pretty impressive.

Regarding # 6, there was nothing organic about what came out yesterday.  Someone decided to release the hounds and it most certainly was Dolson.

I reported that Sunday during the game. Dolson had a meeting with all the players talking about many different things. Don't have much else on it. They touched on social media, being contacted by agents, and other programs

Did Dolson also meet with some former players?  I thought that I read that somewhere?

No, she made sense. It was also short and concise. Not a 2000-word essay explaining how he was smarter than us.

Yes, at least 10 former players met with him last week saying they are ready to move on.
