Fire Scott Dolson

Cancel the basketball program and shift all resources to football.

I don’t know how Dolson could plausibly sell Brownell to the fanbase, season ticket holders, and donors.

Whiffing on May?
Unless May is a complete scumbag, that extension takes him out of consideration. Not one person with any integrity would leave Michigan for IU after agreeing to that extension. IF May would take the IU job, it would become a shit show very quickly at this point.
 
I know we may not be what we used to be but I don't think we've slipped that far yet. And that's not taking anything away from Brownell, he's a solid coach. But we can do better.
Don’t think we’ve slipped that far? What do you consider far? Being a perennial bubble team, making tournament twice (pending this season) and having one regular B1G season winning record in the last 9 years isn’t falling far on your scorecard? You have lower standards to consider this “not slipping far”.

This hire will tell us.

By that you mean our ability to pull a high quality coach is the barometer of us “slipping”? I get what you are saying, but my point is we have already slipped and slipped far. That dye is cast. No matter who the coach hired is, they have to pull a Dusty. At least with Michigan it was a 2 year slide with Howard. We are on a 9 year run of shit.

At this point I'm still willing to give Dolson the benefit of the doubt. We'll soon see.
 
IF…Brownell is the hire… I actually might beat the “fire Dolson drum” myself. He has immunity from the Cig hire. But not firing Woodson last year, and missing on someone like May because of it, and then not being able to sell someone better than Brownell on the job… real world, you get fired for mistakes and performances THAT bad. And I don’t care if the choice last year wasn’t his. Be a damn leader, stake your job on it. And then if you fail to do that, you better sack up and get someone better than Brownell.
 
Or does SD wait for the conclusion of the NIT or Crown to announce?
How? Portal opens well before that.

If he waits until after Crown, and then announces Brownell… he does deserve to be fired. And I’m normally not that emotional on these sorts of things.
