Of course he wouldn't. But it would let him know that he's not going to get jerked around by IU in the same way Bruce Pearl allegedly did last offseason where you get to the point of talking numbers but then don't make a change (supposedly). May is a bad example of this because he is probably going to milk IU for a nice raise at Michigan anyway. But a guy like DeVries, Wade, etc...

Lol if you think Bruce Pearl was being jerked around by IU last year. The only way you seriously believe that is if you believe everything you read on this board....which proves my point. 

If anything, Bruce Pearl was jerking Auburn around (at the expense of IU) to pander for the new basketball practice facility that he's asked for now for the last several years.

I didn't put enough conditions around that statement for you between allegedly and (supposedly) ?

It's an illustration ...

IMO, attacking other posters because they have a differing viewpoint makes no sense to me. I'm not talking about having a robust debate with them is perfectly fine, but to me, personal attacks are unbecoming and disrespectful.
I want Woody gone now and agree with the reasoning posters like Home Jersey and others have given for doing it now. I really thought it might happen this week, especially after seeing the photo of Dolson giving Woodson the daggers.

She may be trolling. But her position that IU is slow to make decisions is true. And the smoke that a decision may be made before the season’s end is just smoke so far. That doesn’t mean it can’t happen. But while she may be trolling, she’s been correct. We will see if that changes. 

IUs fired 5 coaches in my lifetime. Only 2/5 have been at the conclusion of the season. Her silly narrative doesn’t even conform to historical fact.

Crowd didn't seem horrible during the game vs Maryland until the last few seconds. Still don't see how it shows they are not serious of basketball if you don't fire him mid season. Also how many college coaches get fired mid season in the first place especially one with a winning record.

The crowd was starting to get restless when we went down 10. We played good enough to keep it pretty calm. Till the end when all hell broke loose and woodson screwed everything up. Could you imagine if that wasn't the end and woodson Had to remain out there longer?

Maybe you can block people who don’t want to read it?  He’s been posting the same thing on HSN as well.  All while posting over there that Chris Beard is an alcoholic while not knowing anything about it.  Wild.

I actually posted 3 different articles over there talking about Beard and his drinking problems

Message boards are all about rumors and small bits of info, some true and some false, posters have to figure it out.  And fans will discuss what they think and want to happen.

If that’s not your thing, the IndyStar or Herald-Times would be a better fit.

I never said I know anything that happens inside the program just like everyone else on here. It is not my fault that some on here are so gullible to believe everything that is said on message boards

Today Dakich spent the first hour of his show ranting about how much IU is paying assistants and others connected to the program. Hunter and Rosemond are making $500K each and Randy Wittman is making $130K as a consultant. DD says it is money laundering! He also doubled down on Ballo telling Woody to F off and he might be reading this forum because he said people on message boards saying he doesn't know what he is talking about are full of it!

Dan Dakich F off you blowhard. I hope he reads this lol.

And they should have been fired even sooner. Davis and Miller for sure stayed too long. Crean maybe deserved his last year but it was obvious where the program was going. And now we have Woodson. Her narrative may be silly. But until Woodson is fired before the end of the season, she’s correct. Even if it’s trolling.

Actually there is a picture floating around here.  It looks like Renue came to the corner to set a screen for Rice to come off a curl around the free throw line.  Rice didn’t take it.   But there were no second options cause everyone else was standing around.  

I didn’t see that.  I watched the game but don’t remember because that last play was so chaotic.

One was fired for violating a zero tolerance policy. One resigned and coached out the end of the season while the other resigned amidst level 1 infractions. Which leaves Archie and Crean who were both fired at the end of the season. Woodson, who hasn't violated a zero tolerance policy nor been charged with level 1 infractions, is going to coach out the remainder of the season until he is inevitably fired. Seems pretty par for the course.

Since the dawn of time

Not in college it wasn't. Like I have said I have watched a lot of der games and there wasn't a formal handshake line and most of the time the teams left the court right away. RMK might go over to a senior player who played their last game vs IU and talked to him.

Chris Holtmann last year. 
 

Mike Davis. Aren’t you an IU fan?

Holtmann's record was eerily similar to Woodson's, at least percentage wise

Holtmann @ tOSU:
137–86 (.614)    67–65 (.508)

Woodson @ IU
 77–47 (.621)    36–34 (.514)

We’ve been completely unserious from the moment Mike Woodson was hired to coach basketball. Nothing about the “process” has anything to do with winning basketball games. It’s about appeasing two program legends. Full stop. No one is saying he has to be fired right now, simply make the retirement announcement and let him finish the year. He probably gets cheered on senior night. Instead, we are supposed to believe this administration is fine with the optics of angry or empty Assembly Hall for the rest of the season? Don’t hire unqualified program legends in the first place. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. 

That would be the best outcome. We all agree that Woodson needs to go and we need a new start for the program.
