Sounds like you also need a burner.

I don't even talk basketball on there other than complain about the refs.

If Dolson is not doing that yet, then he's just not doing his job. 

Not doing your job will get you a million dollar raise at IU

I'm really upset. I mean I'm bald and look older but no way I look 60. I'm still in my 40's NGW

I'd speculate Tyme is Woodson's burner, but that would require Woody to (1) use technology (2) take a break from Wine-down-Wednesday. It's also not written in the third person so there's no way it's him.

We've figured out it's NGW

Tyme/NGW has to be someone personally invested in Woodson’s success at IU. Who else would be that passionate at this point?

Though the Luke Brown poster was strangely unaffiliated, so anything is possible.

I thought when he was here that NGW was hired by Woodson, his agent, or someone invested in Woodson being IU's coach to go on message boards and social media to talk him up. I still haven't  changed my mind on that.

We should care because when Leal actually plays... We win. People don't want to admit it and seem blind to it, but we won when he's able to play 20-29 minutes. It's just a fact. So far, undefeated in his career when that's the case.

That doesn’t deny the fact Leal is not good enough. If he is getting that many minutes next year just means Woody failed in the portal.

Sure. Which is why I said he should play 20. 5-0 in those games. Meaning 2-7 in the others.

Cherry picker LOL

Our donors may have millions to burn betting on Mike Woodson, but I unfortunately do not lol. 

Bet against him, I won a lot of money this year doing that!

For something to happen now, it would have to be that we had a big name locked up. Pearl had already signed that you would fire Woodson on Wednesday and hire Pearl on Thursday. Or whoever. But as you said at this point you can't fire Woodson and then do a coaching search.

As far as next year don't even put out there that he gets an hour after the last game is played. 

Questions? So he’ll get 4.3 million for coaching next year and what does his buyout go down to next year?

He's absolutely good enough. He's proven it. He might not be some Sportscenter highlight getter or anything but you don't need 5 of those on the floor at once.

I think 7.7 but I'm not totally sure about that.

Yes, UL didn’t want to pay out a high 7-digit buyout for him

So I am too lazy to go look, but the 5 star guy we had on campus this week, wouldn't he be a wing or 3?  It seemed when I glanced over his stuff when it was announced that he would be someone competing with MM's out of position position.  I don't see how we add him without making someone unhappy, unless we plan on making him our 2 guard in which case:

"You would like to see Bryson’s jump shot to become more consistent. He is really good in the mid-range, one to two dribble pull ups from the elbows. An explosive athlete, he is good in transition. He has a great work ethic and is one to continue watching as a five-star."

That doesn't sound like the type of player that is going to move the needle towards "modern basketball".  I know people will say that JHS and TJD in the pick and roll and this kid could play the JHS role in that scenario but I don't know.  I think Woodson has himself in a pickle with his roster.  His 2 best players cause roster problems when trying to build around them.

Woody read he's good in the mid-range and said Kenyon get him on campus. He loves him some mid-range

Or he's doing what I hope he's doing and playing Reneau and MM at their natural positions and getting more athletic out on the perimeter.

You would hope....I just don't have that faith.

Gosh, once Woodson is fired next spring I'm worried the list of candidates won't be that appealing. I mean OSU, Louisville, and even Michigan didn't make too splashy of a hire.

I'm rooting the best for Dusty at Michigan.

"mid-range" as in "long 2-point shots"? That's par for the course. Inside-out it is.
