I’m not sure they have a choice with how much of a disaster Wednesday night turned into for them. 

And if they don't that might be the final indication that it's over.

Sisley visiting Purdue this weekend after Painter visited him this week…. Meanwhile Woodson is preparing for the game of the year vs Mighty Terps. It will be our best game yet.

Chris is dead serious. He loves the Stangs more than he loves coach searches.

That is true. Probably only because we only get coaching searches every 3-4 years LOL

we're not much in the sports realm (though the varsity girls are pretty good, and mostly sophomores....bright future there), but our marching band took home state 2 years in a row now.....so there's that!

Saw Brody play in the 2000 state finals against LCC. Dude was within range the minute he crossed the half court line

I went to Bloomington North when they won the last single class title in 1997 and watched the finals in person. That was a helluva team.

Wait...are you talking about 3rd times the charm for Pearl,  or for iubhounds2 getting over the hump for his poo?

No, 3rd times a charm for getting hopes up for a big name just to be let down. Donovan then Stevens.

I actually liked Dave and coached junior high for him. He ran a great offense. We both drink about the same I just choose not to drive after drinking.

Love that red turf! I spent a couple years in Ellettsville and loved it. I miss it almost daily.

Interesting read. 

However, I'm not sure getting cranky about going 0-5 against Penn State, Nebraska and Northwestern; taking 19- and 20-point losses to Purdue that could've easily been worse; feigning surprise that JHS left and being unprepared for it; leaving a scholarship open; yet another year of no consistent 3-point threats; and having just one player signed for the next class -- among many other legitimate gripes -- is overreacting!

Heck of nice guy  who had problems . Kids love him. Was awesome to my godsons who almost transfered to Rockville instead of Clay City  to play for him .

Current Ellettsville resident and two kids at Edgewood and a BIL a middle school teacher/coach. I’ll buy everyone around of fried mushrooms from Pizza Pantry if Woodson is gone be end of March lol

When did we start rooting for Kentucky?

Haha, I got that analogy thinking about my Kentucky relatives.  It's been tough being around them at family get togethers the last few years, but all I have to do to change the conversation is bring up "The Wat Shot". That gets them riled up every time, still haven't gotten over that, LOL

I agree. But talking about it 24/7 might be. Some folks need to get out of the house.

This is how you pad the page count numbers when there isn't really anything new to discuss.

Woodson needs to go!
