Ha!  I heard he clubbed the seal first to tenderize it. 

I heard he clubbed it and bit it’s head off while wearing seal boots.

Bozich coming in hot with the commentary 

Rick has offically stopped giving a **** about what Mike Woodson thinks.  This is his 2nd tweet attacking Woodson in the last couple days.

Just watched Dusty May’s introductory press conference. IU is getting ready to find out just how badly they screwed up by letting politics trump competence. About done with IU unless they can figure how who they want to be. Or, maybe they already have…

That was hard to watch. Of course working for RMK came up.

Not sure if I should share this or not but the feedback IU is getting from the portal so far, from kids who should be a layup for IU is not going well. When a player's camp tells you that you need to change your offense and pay them a lot of money to get them it's not good. 

We might really have to get kids from the Hyper to field a team. It’s going to be miserable. If I was hearing this I would FIRE WOODY.

Didn't see it -- but I wouldn't get too worked up over a presser introducing a coach.

That was why i suggested, hoped, that Dolson got a list of targets from MW so he can track the needed results vs the actual results.

I prefer you keep posting what you hear. In this ever evolving world, things can change at the blink of an eye, drop of a hat, etc. You post what you hear. Whether people take as gospel on them. It’s called rumors or “what I’ve heard” Everyone thinks Trilly is gospel. He got Dusty May wrong (as did everyone) but that happens. Rabby is very careful and still gets things wrong too. It is what it is. Unless you hear it directly from the decision makers mouth, it could he wrong. Either way, I love when anyone posts what they hear. Do I put more weight into something specific posters say, yes. But will I ever hold any one accountable for saying what they are currently hearing. No. So thank you Chris and thank you to everyone who posts what they hear and everyone that keeps this board going and severely depletes my ability to ever stay on task at work. Now…back to the game.

I heard IU hired Brad “FING” Stevens and then I woke up.

Even with the pay differential, do kids really care these days?  It's all about work-life balance these days.  We have all had crappy jobs that overpaid us -- and we where still miserable.  Basketball is supposed to be fun.  I'd go where the fun is, even though it may mean a "pay cut."

Heck no it’s only for a few years make hay while the sun is shining. If Leal gets paid what he got paid last year even without next year pay bump why take 80 to 90% less to play for a mid major.

Yeah the local media and Woody have an unsalvageable relationship it appears.  It's really a shame to see it.  Woody certainly hasn't helped himself with the media.  Either local or national.

Lord. Print this and hand deliver it to Dolson, Chris.

I believe that Woodson pays more for blind loyalty than for actual ability.

Wood have to be.

I'm not sure why people are getting worked up about the accuracy of what people have heard and reported.  This is the cable news generation.  I don't care how accurate the report is as long as it agrees with the narrative that I want to hear.

If you think that is the trigger, then you don’t get it. 

[Coach Robby 214]

I know we're shopping in the portal right now...but man, that quote from @Chris007 about having a terrible offense for guards...

I'm honestly worried we'll get a few from the portal or whatever, have an increased NIL payroll, and roll out the same @$$ **** we rolled out this year, MINUS Ware...

Can you imagine our record this season if we didn't get Ware and/or Mgbacko? And MM inquired to us. Basically fell in Woody's lap.

I don't mean to sound so negative, we are A LONG WAY from being competitive regularly on a national spectrum

I would have photoshopped it, and I wanted too, but my skills are at a zero and don’t even know where to begin.

Oh, I get it. But about 95% of coaches win the presser. 

He could be the next John Beilein -- or the next Archie Miller. Nobody knows for sure. Most everybody says the right thing at introductory pressers.
