Popular Post Home Jersey Posted February 18 Popular Post Posted February 18 It’s February 18 and the earliest we’re likely to hear anything about our new coach officially is probably March 23 after the second round ends, with the portal opening March 24. This entire season has been a dud and with over a month to go, the only real entertainment value IUBB provides right now is sh!tposts on a message board. What’s done is done and we can’t change the past but this is the part of the year where I find the inaction last spring so frustrating. If we made the captain obvious move last offseason we’d probably be 1st in the B10 right now and have all sorts of actual basketball related things to discuss. Instead we have to toil away beating dead horses and hoping we’re pleasantly surprised. IU has conditioned us to expect the worst when it comes to basketball. I so hope this next hire changes that… ALASKA HOOSIER, FWHoosier84, AKHoosier and 8 others 11

I would pay Dolson a crap ton of money, even though I don’t have it, to sit in his office and watch him do it! skhoosier2 and AZ Hoosier 2

JF87 Posted February 20 Posted February 20 I am so glad that Dolson retired Woodson mid-season. The tournament bubble is so weak this year, we could actually squeak in as a 10 or 11 seed. Just like mediocre Mike to take a top 10 roster and barely make the tournament. I was always fearful that Woodson's influential backers would say you can't fire a coach that made the NCAA Tournament 3 of 4 years. I just couldn't take another year with Woodson underperforming with a talented roster. My love for IU basketball was diminishing with each game. skhoosier2 and AZ Hoosier 2

Hearing all of them talk, they think that’s the ultimate goal! Pathetic!

It was McCollum for 29 pages and now his own thread but lately it’s been Cronin! I don’t get into those discussions and they drag on but it did get a little interesting yesterday when Jerry Y posted. I don’t mind joining into those conversations. skhoosier2 1

Did he not know that this was the way we have done it from Ralph Flyold to Fred Glass. I sure as heck that the next coach respects the process. I'm going to vote right now that you sit them down after being hired and let them know this is how IU athletics handles things and get them started in the right direction. We thank you for your service at this fine University It’s probably just his reaction after being told he wouldn’t be coaching the Maryland game, as we were told was happening. Now, back to the process that you keep struggling to get a handle on. I’m just glad to be able to get you back on course when you invariably drive into the ditch. Feel like your own AAA.
