That sort of makes sense with the timing of Woodson's "retirement" announcement. Dolson wanted to make a change this spring, has had that deal pretty much buttoned up, and wanted to cut off the possiblilty of a late-season run giving Woodson an argument for another year.
So, who will it be?

- Start date
Zeke has no problem lobbing all sorts of unproven accusations. The ends justify the means, in her eyes. Never once acknowledged that self-defense was even a possibility, despite the woman saying so.So now it’s plural? Where’s the info that he “beat” even one woman?
Beard speaks at Ole Miss, skips arrest questions
Ole Miss on Tuesday introduced the Rebels' new men's basketball coach Chris Beard, who repeatedly declined to discuss specifics regarding his December domestic violence arrest that led to his eventual firing as coach of the Texas Longhorns.www.espn.com
true. i have high cap 17 rnd mags and can probably pull off 10 rounds in under 3 seconds. But that might just piss him off.
anything larger and the recoil might knock me out of my kayak.
Assuming it's not legal to go gator plinking, even in self defense...even in FL.....I'll have to read up on the rules.
But if my life is on the line, I'd rather deal with a CPO than a gator. But just barely.
yeah I noticed that yrs ago...salt water fish have 2X the muscle.
I went on a charter deal with my boss a few yrs back around the islands /backwaters near St Pete, and had a 30" snook on....felt like a 30 lbs fish, the force it applied was. startling. Screaming drag, I did all I could just to hold on.
Domestic violence, understandably, hits people differently. Doesn't matter why or how, it just does. Its one of the reasons why I'll be surprised if he's the choice. Of any "issue" someone could have, that's one of the most difficult ones for all parties involved to move past.
The other main reason, that's tied to the initial one I mentioned, is it cuts Beard's margin for errors and mistakes down to basically nothing. He'd be starting his tenure at IU, basically, with a zero tolerance policy hanging over him. So...while a coach with a "clean" slate can absorb certain controversies, issues, transgressions, and move past them. Beard will never be able to do that.
For me, its MUCH less about the morality questions...but that's just me, DV hasn't been a big part of my personal story. But I do still have PTSD from the Sampson dumpster fire. And of all the coaches being opined about, Beard has the highest likelihood of burning the house down again. I'm wary of that.
From what I understand, you can hunt alligators at designated times but not with firearms.
Just think, as concerned as you are, how concerned Scott Dolson would be, since his job would be on the line. All I've ever said is if you bow to the pressure and rule him out without doing background checks on him, you're not doing your job. But, if he hires him, I'm confident he'll have done the necessary vetting and talked with Beard to be sure he's convinced there would be nothing similar that would derail him. If he does that, I don't think you have any more to worry about with CB than anyone else. I've also always said, don't hone in on one candidate and talk to several so if he also does that and determines Otz or McCasland or whoever is a better candidate, I'm happy for that.
Not a hunter. Just want to legally protect myself if worst case scenario ever happened Seen too many monster movies.
I believe us Hoosiers need to come to terms with the fact that this is now a business. Back in the 80's, 90's and, even 00's it was still collegiate athletics. If we want a good product on the court, then beard is the answer. He has proven at 3 power 4 conference teams he can do a fantastic job. This is an absolute no brainer. It's a home run hire right in front of us.
I agree I think he'd do well here. It's that pesky baggage that keeps getting in the way.
Beard is a winner who would do well at IU ... and, imo, he'd be a good coaching fit. I don't think anyone can argue otherwise. However, even if the DV incident never occurred, maybe Dolson has someone better in mind (or already in the bag). Again, CB is a solid coach, but so are others; it's not like he's the only one high up on the coaching ladder.
