I was on there. There has been a lot more than what I posted as well. Go sign up if you want.

Trilly likes to cause stirs and walk things back and twist things a little. Keeps the money flowing. 

Well it's kind of BS you're calling someone out and posting "proof" that really isn't proof.  I don't know what was said, nor do I care, and I am certainly not paying for that crap.

Kind of projecting there.  Nobody except @Ngw7183 really knows what is or has been going thru their head.  The reason for the post was obviously Holtman's firing but doesn't mean IU wasn't looking at things before that.  

I fixed it for you.

Haven't they done that already? That sign's been hanging at Simon-Skjodt Assembly Hall before it was Simon-Skjodt Assembly Hall... 

Figuratively that sign as been there for years. I mean an literal physical sign so the fans knows yeah it sucks but the administration doesn't care so it won't change.

IU has been in communication with people outside the university about IU men’s basketball. Who, what, when, and where are irrelevant. If everyone was happy, this would not happen.

As of right now, the coaches expect they'll be back and they expect the head coach to return.

There's a lot of reasons for this (doesn't mean anyone has to like them). 

But, the vibes aren't nearly as high as they once were. (Duh, no $h!t right?). 

Go Hoosiers. 

Dang a rare CoachSS post. Good to hear from you.

After this season there should be changes with the assistants at the very least. Otherwise the administration should just put up a sign that says "we really do not care".

Would good will that do if the assistants aren't listened to by Woodson anyway?

We did this with every coach we have had since Knight. Then excuse it as passion. All we did was make it harder on ourselves. With portal now, it is even harder. 

Knight never missed being in the AP top 25, at least once, during any season he coached here.  

Including this year, we have not touched the AP top 25, at least once, 10 out of 24 years since.

Fans have every right to be impatient and pissed when they seem the same mediocre to bad management of the program year after year. We were spoiled with a legend, but we should be demanding better than failure, 42% of the time.

At least make the top 25 once every year, that’s not too much to ask.  Woody failed that in year 3.

Since Trillys site is a pay forum(premium content) please don’t post any  screenshots of it.   Forum rules frown upon it.      saying what was  said in your  own words is fine just no screenshots please.   Thanks

That I believe does happen. 

Ngw7183- you seem to have some relationship or at least insight to the current staff or coach Woodson, so I find your posts interesting.  Over the last couple of days, you've mentioned a possible change in assistants and changing our offense for next year. Have you heard that we will be wanting to run more 4 or 5 out?  Are we considering prioritizing the three-point shot more?   Have you heard anything on whether Mgbako will return or go pro?  I believe he and his family's desire was to be one and done?  Based on mock drafts, I assume that Ware is a certainty to go pro?

I have a feeling we're going to reach 500 pages. What is the record for most pages?

I would love to have Pearl as our coach, but I don't know how the AD can sell that. I think it is very easy to sell May. You can go back to Woody's introductory press conference where he said, "we going to bridge the gap between old and new." You can say that it was always the plan for Woody to step aside when we have identified the right candidate to usher in a new era for Indiana basketball. Who better to do that than a young coach who grew up in Indiana, went to IU, and worked under Bob Knight and Mike Davis. That is an easy story to sell that allows Woody and the administration to save face. If they bring in Pearl, I don't know how you sell that as anything other than Woody didn't get the job done and Indiana is willing to eat their own.

We can build a big bronze bridge in front of SSAH, with Woody walking across..Biggie crown on his head…put a huge speed bump in the center of the bridge — ‘the inevitable hump’ and have a statue of Armon sitting in a comfortable chair on the other side—napping of course! 
 

Finally, it seems perfectly reasonable to negotiate the commission for said statue out of Woody’s $12M buyout.

Think @Class of '66 Old Fart eluded to "fire Tom Crean" carrying that honor. It was like 1,200 or something

Well, @Ngw7183 says we have 13 months so let's get going. We have nothing to lose. Lay it all on the line for one year.

I think a few hundred by season's end is a layup. Well on our way!

That thread was started on 1/4/2014 and was 1,065 pages long. If we have to wait 3 years from the start of this thread to IU firing Woodson, the length of this thread will make The Infinite Jest look like See Spot Run.
