The definition of insanity

[HoosierJimbo89]

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. How many times does the AD have to watch this crap before they do something about it? Woody plays outdated basketball, his teams are sloppy and undisciplined, there's a lack of passion and urgency, the guard play stinks, and we don't and can't shoot. That may be the worst basketball performance I've ever seen at IU, and management's performance is even worse.

Curt Cignetti turned the football program around in one year, and his roster is 5-6 times bigger. For God's sake, make a management decision and get a new coach in here. The right guy can immediately turn this around.

Lol. Phil Jackson. He’s probably drooling, anyway.

What's the buyout for CMW?

You will have to wait until after the season for your coaching change ... it might feel like it but this is not the NBA.

Neither. I pull for Indiana in hoops but Notre Dame football.

Happy Thanksgiving

Don't know what the total is but the contract was restructured so he received a $1Mil lump sum per year until the balance is paid.

$8.4M is the total right now, but paid out slowly as you noted.

Chump change ... Dolson has that ready now.

Those guys are all mere mortals. Go for a wizard or a warlock.

Honest question... how does a guy who has proven not much get into a situation where his buy out is still 8.4M after 4 years? Crazy.

For whatever reason it’s market for coaches across bball and fball to have a large chunk of their comp guaranteed. I find it pretty annoying.

In theory it helps prevent a wealthy school from poaching a good coach. The downside is it also makes it more costly to fire a bad coach.

I think these buyouts should have a performance compoent. If the coach is winning, buyout stays high. If the coach is losing, buyout drops. Coaches would not agree to that however.

And coaches do deserve some time to rebuild a program if that is what they are walking into. But today with the transfer portal and NIL that does not need to be more than two or three years tops. Cig and others have shown that.

Didn’t we offer Stevens, like, a billion dollars and he said no? He ain’t coming. Would love to be wrong
