Why are we not talking about the guy that has us in this position? Maybe our coaches aren't up to par but maybe it is the guy that has names the last 4 coaches that is the problem.
Dolson last chance
- Thread starter IU_JD
- Start date
What’s wrong with you?
This will be Dolson’s first basketball hire. Woodson was hired by Quinn Buckner.
Okay my bad...but leads to a bigger issue. I was a die hard... graduated in 01.... program is so in the whole that I can no longer take the time to care when I am drinking
Dolson hasn’t been our AD for 24 years. But to your point, Woody was a terrible choice. In my opinion, Dolson anticipated Woody would face challenges, which is why he brought in Fife and Matta as part of the hire. Still, he should have known better.
Listening to everyone’s coaching wishlist makes me question how realistic the options are. Last year, two fellow blue-blood programs, Kentucky and Louisville, ended up hiring mid-major coaches after seemingly missing out on more established candidates. IU has also struck out in its last several coaching searches. Yet, fans remain optimistic that top-tier coaches are eager to come here. It makes me wonder how many of these coaches will feign interest in the IU job just to leverage our interest into a pay raise at their current school.
Great point
I am not Kurt, he sucks
I am a long time lueker who is drinking on a Friday night after IU is looking for a new coach
Honestly that is funny...but I am just a difficult lurker drinking and posting...not the old db he have listened to for years
I think you should call, and then possibly email, Scott Dolson immediately. Let him have it... Be sure to tell him that you've been a lurker for 25 years.

Not a bad thing. At least you’re honest and commenting on this board because you want what the rest of do… for IU to dominate
100% really want to get this right ...for the first time in 20years (2 decades)!
"My Bad?" You're just an effing idiot! Delete your ill-advised and uninformed post and prove that you're not an idiot.
You all are 100% correct, but if you knew how important IU basketball used to be to me...you would be sad that I am so far removed. Win or lose was my attitude towards life....now a blowout at WI is normal to me. If I let my 20 year old self hear that ...I cry, but now it is normal
Fair...but not happening.
Imagine graduating in 2001...and living the next 25 years through this shit storm. Remember, you would have actually been Al be for the good times.
I actually emailed Dolson at the beginning of the season when I knew things were going south. Like some I suggested he go the Cignetti route again for the next basketball coach. At that time I brought up Derrick Clark’s name. A Muncie Indiana guy that is an assistant at Loyola Marymount. He was a Division II head coach at Metro State University in Denver with a 173-50 record. But after further research, he has been arrested for a couple DUI’s. Assuming that’s why he is no longer a head coach. Once again, great coaches out there that have had a human hiccup.
