o$u fired Holtman last yr.......

midseason last year after losing about 7 straight

diebler came in and rattled off 5 straight B1G wins with the same players

finished 7-2 with both losses at the wire

just saying....
Holtman has DePaul undefeated at this point, but hasn’t really played anyone. 1st big game is Dec 4th vs Texas Tech.
Diebler was a risky hire. If he gets it done at OSU while IU struggles, that says a lot about our program.

Idk who would fill in. Maybe Calbert. That might help a little, but probably not much.

I don't care. This season is going nowhere. Wasted $6.5M NIL. All that matters is who the next coach is, and that hire can't happen until the end of the season.

We spent so much more than 99% of schools and have no idea how to use them. What a joke
 
I’d take a good look at the drake coach. Ben McCollum. Younger cig sounds like.

Google him!
He looks like a very bright coach waiting for his chance but I've heard he wants the Iowa job once Fran retires. He wants it for his entire career is the rumor. Ofcourse he would do very well there while we would be stuck with then 68 Mike Woodson.

coaches in all sports get canned all the time , even successful ones. when it stops working......well, you can't fire the the whole team

the buck stops with the coaches, no hard feelings you just have to move on. especially now that college sports have become a business

we need a change.....promote calbert

I'm not saying make him head coach, just inject some life and give the season a chance

Dolson start working on a permanent fix

USI had them on the ropes before missed free throws and giving up a last second three instead of fouling allowing it to go to OT, where DePaul won.
 
IU has to make the move. AH was shitty when we were 4-0. I promise it will be a shit show now. Hell, I’ll lead the charge.
I just saw looking at IU's schedule on ESPN ... tickets for Tuesday are down to $2 and $5 for the home game after that. I guess fans are not too fired up to watch Sam Houston State. I thought they just played football down there. But you are right Cav ... getting boo'd at 4-0, after this weekend, it will be loud and ugly. I still say he opened the can of worms with his idiotic Senior Day speech and half the fanbase are not doing to let him forget it.

They also did not have Quinn and his high priced donor buddies running the show. Quinn will keep woodson as long as he wants and you would never know quinn played on an undefeated team. To him saving his buddies job seems far more important than winning. Plus he has the big pocked donors writing woodson six million dollar checks.

Dolson has NO SAY in this matter quinn 100% is running the show.

An entire balcony was empty for a midday P5 non-con weekend game. I literally can’t remember that ever happening! Tickets on the main were going below face value! The apathy is real.
 
Should have made the change after last season. Oh well, ship has sailed.
I think the UM NIL must not be good. One of the Sleepers guys, Greg, is a UM guy and he's very concerned IU could take May from them. Don't know if that's true, and while I believe May would be a huge upgrade, do a thorough search. Turn over every stone, talk to all the bball people you can and find the guy. Don't care if he's older and this is his last stop, like Pearl, or a wet behind the ears 25 yo coach from Army or some other mid-major. Talk to everyone, find the guy, and hire him, but you need to be as certain as you can, that he's the guy. I think one of our mistakes is we've identified a particular target and focused on him. Thorough search and find The Guy.

PS. as much as I hate hearing the Sleepers guys bag on IU, they have been 100% right. They've been saying all year that this roster should win the B10 by 3 games, but won't win it at all because of Woodson. They call him Sleepy Mike and said he spent the summer on the course. No idea if that's true, but they do have insight into several programs. It sure seems true now.
