I like Tonsoni he always tells it like it is. Is Jerod Morris on too? He seems like a great guy but he’s always making excuses for the team when things go wrong. He’s definitely a glass half full person when it comes to IUBB. 

Not Tonsoni is only AC guy on. I like all of them for one reason or another. To be fair all of them wanted to move on. And even doubled down on that.

One more question for the laughs. Are IU fans toxic or smart? Because I'm guessing majority of the fans knew Liam was leaving. Most of the fans know that Woodson won’t change… And most of us know by stats that the portal in bulk is not good. I think IU fans personally are one of the smartest fan bases.

They’re fed up after 25 years of pain and suffering. We’re so far removed from ‘blue blood’ status it’s not even funny. But hey, at least we could cure the broken heart Mikey Woodson suffered when Fred Glass wouldn’t come to him for an interview. That’s what’s really important here.

Personally if IU glues a roster together that is Minnesota level of last year… It will be so bad next Fall.

Watching AC. Tonsoni is hosting with X's and Joe's and he is visibly livid right now. He's drinking Gumball Head (solid choice) and Jack Daniel's lol. Tonsoni is so freaking over it all and I love it.

Good show tonight for sure

Jerod came on late and said "I understand why players don't want to come play for Indiana".  Which is brutally honest and a just a huge indictment on this current administration.

Ok just gonna cope post: wonder if this increases the chances Woody just says “I’m out” and retires. Better coaches have done so for similar reasons!

“I can win with any team.” Mike Woodson (this season)

I feel like I’m trapped in the movie idiocracy.

Liam is gone...why are we keeping Woody?

Because Woodson didn't get the job, even though he never should've had it, when they first wanted him too. Now we have to keep him around because we didn't fire Miller when we should have.

The Pacers has been a very good organization since the Simons bought the team. They don't run the every day basketball but they have done a good job of hiring the right people to do those jobs.

Hasn't carried over to IUBB. We're stuck with a guy the Knicks told to take a hike after just 3 years.

Think of this as a positive.  We miss the tournament next season he's gone guaranteed.   The last thing anyone wants is another opening weekend blowout and then a year 5.  Always better to get the bandage off as quickly as possible. 

They kept him to protect his feelings, they'll look for every excuse to bring him back for year 5.

People have organized white out, red out and stripe out, I think for MSU folks who have tickets should consider staying out. An empty arena sends a strong response

I would hope fans show up for senior day or whatever.

Wow! Tonsoni also took very obvious shot at BoT and specifically Buckner. They aren't holding back. Good on them.

[rcbowla]

Then Mike and Bob say f@$% you to people blaming the fans. New respect for AC tonight.

Last question of the night to all you wonderful people.

As of right now… Next 18 months who has a better projected future

Well...without knowing the hires but based off of last 20+ years of athletic decisions? Louisville. Michigan is a close 2nd but doesn't care about basketball like Louisville does. IU is a far, far, far distant 3rd if even that.

New PFP until the situation is rectified.

I will be staying at the Beaumont House this weekend and will be in attendance Sunday, and I will partake in “Fi-re Wood-y” chants if there are any :-)

Not a fan of either but gotta respect it. I personally enjoy Tequila Ocho, Lula or Gran Centenario. Being a Cinco de Mayo baby might make me biased.
