Mike Woodson is destroying an Indiana institution. IU basketball needs an intervention.

Yeah. The guys who depend on “getting into the room” to make a living are typically a little more measured in their critiques. Good on this guy for voicing “just an op-ed.” I’m shocked someone at the Star gave it the go-ahead. What’s next, a Woody/Buckner 3-part hit piece on CNN?
RMK was a strong personality, and he was the sheriff that could keep the boosters at bay.
IU in turmoil will provide clicks and views. Probably why Dakich got back into local radio a few months ago.

Why? Make your case, state your reasons.
Brand and Knight had much more in common about how they felt collegiate athletics should operate than they did difference. Knight just couldn't stay out of his own way and finally had someone with balls big enough to challenge him, especially since Knight allowed his own program to go to shit (comparatively).

Despicable treatment of Knight? You've got to be kidding. He did what he wanted and by his rules for almost 30 years. Most universities would have canned him long before it actually happened. It was time.
How about no chance. Purdue didn't fire Keady despite many of the same firey tantrums yet no real success and a three cheat to boot.
Bill Benner and Robin Miller weren’t huge fans back in the day either.
Bullshit!
I knew Bob Collins when he was Sports Editor at the Star. What an entertaining writer and a better story teller.
Did Keady have a warrant out for his arrest? Did Keady throw a flower pot at a secretary? Did Keady choke a player? Did Keady throw a chair cross court during a game? The list is endless. Yes, IU sacrificed integrity for wins. Not judging it but it is a fact.
Not sad but when IU is dead last and Purdue is in first place and IU on the front page and Purdue on the back? Sorry but it's obvious.
Nothing like piling on, know wonder Leal said what he did. They just might as well say they hate the coach. The true fan's comment was very interesting. The players will become galvanized with me against them.Doesn't mince words!

No let them talk, Woodson should keep his mouth shut. People and posters already think he is arrogant keep quiet about the locker room and his recruiting. We have a whole state of IU coaches who think they could do better.
Integrity? How many wins did RMK vacate? @choptalk
ZING!
yeah RMK's relationship with AD Doninger soured. I always thought that was the genesis of this particular comment from Knight.
Was Doninger the AD when Knight was fired? I don’t know much about the ADs pre-Greenspan. But at the time it was all Myles Brand vs Knight, and then there was coach committee that decided to keep Davis. I never knew what the AD was doing…
If I recall correctly, there was a player group that demanded one of the assistants be named head coach. If demand wasn't met several threatened to walk. Fife was among the most vocal.
Oh that’s silly. The university didn’t hire Brand to fire Knight.
