Has he paid his penance yet? Can you imagine the things he could do with Woody’s budget?

Pay the man now! Don’t **** this up IU.
He’s winning at Ole Miss. enough said.
Screw that. Hire him. Feelings are why are in the shape we are in now. Hire Beard immediatly.
I actually think Pam would be cool with it. Her bed-wetting detractors, not so much.
Maybe. But hiring a guy that made a mistake and promised not to it again didn't work out. I want a coach with no baggage and there is no need to have ties to what used to be IU basketball.
gator,
I nominated you in a different post for having the best pre season prediction on this board. You deserve an award for stating just before the season started that we would be lucky to win 20 games with Woodson on the bench in spite of a soft schedule. Props.
I didn't say any of those things. There are plenty of coaches that can win at IU without a history of cheating or being arrested. Grow up.
Pete needs to supply the $ and STAY OUT OF THE HIRING PROCESS!!! It is Scott’s job and he is the best at it. I’m so tired of involvement outside of the AD — we’ve had Presidents, Trustees, and donors screwing shit up for 25 years.
Would you have taken Coach K from Duke? You do realize he had baggage too......right? Painter has baggage. I think I'm sufficiently grown up. These aren't saints we are dealing with.....they are egos who are driven to succeed.
The only thing we can do is plan for the future based on what we know currently no matter how much we wish things were different. You deserve props no matter how little you like it.
I'd go after Pearl and have him get the ship righted and then bring in a young talent behind him.
Yonkman. He is CEO of Cook Medical and leads the Hoosiers for Good collective (the collective Cooks donates through.
