Pure guess:

Brad: 10%

Dusty: 45%

Field: 45%

I would say:

Brad: 40%

Dusty: 30%

Field: 30%

Beard: 0%

[LamarCheeks 20,138]

Right now, I'm seeing votes for Field and Miscellaneous. 

Haven't heard of either!

I hope comes. I don't think he will though.

What i find hilarious though,  is people telling posters they can't post their opinions if it is something they disagree with, while posting their opinions. Any opinion posted in this thread that goes against the group think, both poster and post get attacked.

. I disagree wholeheartedly with AH about Will Wade and a lot of other things he has posted about. He has the right to give his opi ion as anyone. Kathy gets attacked because because she said nothing will officially begin until the end of the season. It isn't what the group think believes so attack her. Personally the process should have officially started last year.

In the end, we should allow all opinions without the attacks either way.  But then again, that is the way this Country has been as a whole the last 20 years, so no surprise. 

Cashy talks down to everyone, that's why she's not popular here. Plenty of people have posted similar things to her with a much more casual but respectful tone. She/he is not the only person with possible inside information that can talk in extremely general terms to sound correct.

Beard is out because he is too toxic per some on this board. So the choices are stevens or woodsoon for a 5th year? Do we know if stevens ever had a speeding ticket? That would disqualify him without a doubt. And if he drinks that another massive strike.

I'm out on the mid-season firing, though warranted. From a PR perspective & out of respect for Woodson, he needs to be forced to announce retirement before Sunday. As awful as he's been he's still a Hoosier great who does not deserve what's coming for him Sunday. The only way to avoid it or tamper the crowd is through announced retirement. Do the right thing IU

This is how bad decisions get made. The program sucks in its current state, and the fans are so desperate to get away from the epic crapshow that they would be willing to take jumps to places that they would never go if they were allowed to fully contemplate their actions.

When one is in the level of pain (emotional or spiritual) this great, they will grab an anything within reach to alleviate said pain. 

Chris Beard is not the answer.

My friends call me Mister Integrity but I say F!@K it I'm all in.

Buy him a rubber doll to punch on and name her Sally.

I'm joking kind of.

[Hornsby 2,762]

Wade has a Sweet 16, so it's not like he's never had any March success. And he comes with considerably less baggage.
I get why some would view Beard as a better coach, but if he's a non-starter, then I don't get why there's not more enthusiasm for Wade in the non-Stevens category. He strikes me as a better bet than McCollum, for instance.

Beard is toxic i am told.. So is pitino Jr because he is related to Rick. We are pure as the driven snow at iu.

People respond in kind, most of the time. All for sharing opinions and talking about disagreements - that doesn’t have to be a combative thing. Shouldn’t be when it comes to basketball on a message board lol. IMO people aren’t taking issue with the difference of opinion but the framing of the opinions and harsh tone it’s delivered in. You catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Pretty clear to me which posters are open to a nuanced discussion vs. feel a need to be inflexible about their views and antagonize. I don’t blame people for responding to that. Couldn’t agree more with your last sentence.

I want Woodson in til the bitter end hearing the boos. He created this mess and he should not get the easy way out.

Brad probably received a few bucks in tips from that job at Applebees that he didn’t report on his 1040.  Likely an automatic disqualifier for our administration.

What an absurd post, even for you. 

Woodson won't get year 5 no matter how much you'd love that.

I'm not even going to bother addressing the rest of the absurdity.

If you are really analogizing a speeding ticket to beating the crap out of your fiance, then you really ought to take a long look in the mirror and reevaluate how important being associated with a winning basketball team is to your life. Your moral compass is horribly misaligned.

And even if you think that those who object to a candidate that was fired from his previous job -- uncontested -- for beating his fiance are too prudish, the fact that so many Hoosier fans do hold this view ought to disqualify Beard alone, because it shows hiring him would be horribly, and unnecessarily, divisive to the fan base.

It's not. I'm not interjecting myself into any more Stevens circle jerk talk. When Woodson is let go and this board wants to get serious about realistic candidates I'll gladly partake.

Beard is a more proven coach but with a past that makes him nearly unhirable. Will Wade did what every other successful coach has done (except he got caught) and since he was at a non-basketball school like LSU, they made an example out of him. Wade is 10 years younger, very advanced in working the portal, and is an elite recruiter.

One is a backup quarterback for the Steelers. The other the men’s basketball coach at USC.

And put up with Knight for years,why?

Because he won.When that eroded he was gone.We seem a little self righteous as a fan base and I'm including myself in that statement.

[Chris007 48,832]

I think Beard is in play, but he is not ahead of Stevens or May. I think there are a couple of other people ahead of him, also. I think tomorrow will be interesting for many different reasons. I have no inside information about tomorrow just seems like a lot is going on. Hopefully for everyone involved this nightmare is over soon.
