I don’t know why you’d have hope. He’s coming back. I don’t want to face it, but sooner we face it, sooner we can move on.

First, you guys are hilarious. Reading the pages I missed on a long travel day is great.  I guess I missed the chance to drop the bomb that coaches were informed yesterday that Woody is being ret

First thing's first, congrats to the IU women on the 4-seed and hosting opportunity. Tough draw, but they call it madness for a reason. Secondly, love you guys and this community, but goodness you're

The “compromise” by Dolson to let this go down this way saved us some good cash on the buyout. Lot of litigation today. Make no mistake about it, this was not Woody’s decision to retire.

Yep, and I know I am the Woody guy etc.

We can all have our feelings but way too much is being taken as facts. If it is against Woody, has to be true. 
 

Good call out. I have a feeling what it was but just my gut and would be based on fact.

On this board it was stated that his mom had said there had been 'very little' contact.  That moved on the board to 'almost no' and then to 'none'.  But all of that is really irrelevant when the actual point which was in any version it sounds like a staff with exactly one commit did not make enough contact with that recruit.

Ok, then how can Woodson "recruit" the portal without those funds?

With a bit of luck, it will all come to a head quickly...

I would still love for Woodson to say he was going to retire and let someone else take over. Still give him the buyout over 12 years. And we all move on. It could be a happy ending for everyone and who doesn’t like a happy ending. 

I love happy endings but my wife hasn’t been feeling very generous after the baby.

If the donors truly are pulling the funds for woody.  Then how does keeping him make absolutely any sense when that gives him 0 chance?  He's not gonna win with his stellar Xs and Os man.

As of now this seems to be an unsubstantiated rumor. However, if it were true, they would not just change their minds right away and announce that same week as a "source" said he'd be back.

I want woody gone...but I agree. Kinda hard to believe, because we are being told funds are high in NIL efforts to basically overpay for a team next year.  If the funds arent there that's not possible, unless somehow maybe some funds are pulling out, but a few (or one) whale can single handedly afford 50 million dollars if they wanted too.   Hoping if the funds are being pulled and NIL is lacking, we move on from Woody when the season ends.

You say that... but the last 2-3 days have been like Mr Toad's Wild Ride around here... who's to say that fun couldn't continue...

I'm not giving up hope. I don't care if people think I'm in denial. 

I have not yet heard Scott Dolson say Mike Woodson will coach next year. 

It makes perfect sense that you would have an anonymously sourced "Woodson's back" report to lower the temperature while the final 2 weeks of the season play out.  Things were extremely intense.  We'll be out of the BTT in a week and assuming no NIT there is time to sit down and figure out where the program is going.  If the "he's back" report is 100% legit, there is zero reason Dolson's name wouldn't be attached to it.  We are being fed a lot of BS.  

With all that has gone on, there is no way he's back.  It's impossible.  No sane person keeps him.  Woodson's only pitch is he'll do the impossible -- that which has never been done before.  It's not happening.

It's become more obvious by the year that IU's inept administration just had extremely good luck when they hired Bob Knight in 1971. Given the fact that they've messed up the basketball program so completely since they fired him, apparently RMK's surly and controlling personality is the only thing that kept the basketball program at an elite level for all of those years. 

Now that the administration has taken back control of the program, they've been entirely inept. The sh*tshow of this season is just further proof of that. I never thought that I'd long for the "bad" Knight years of the late 1990s, but here we are...

You are in denial and that's OK. Truth is he's coming back unless someone gets through to him that it's in his best interest not to. That's the gist of it I'm afraid. Even if he does leave our admin will probably hire the 1984 US Women's Gymnastics coach.

Wednesday night: news about Woodson

Thursday night: news about McNeeley

Friday night: women's team with a nuclear meltdown

 

What's going to be the bad news tomorrow night? 

Cathy will tell us Isiah wanted the job when Woodson got it and his feelings were hurt when Dolson made him sit in the lobby.
