Time to quit dicking around!

I must have that idiot blocked

BA47591 is the handle. Frequently posts that "Pete Yonkman wants to bring Pearl in".

Only two more months left of this nightmare. Then we can talk about something positive for Indiana basketball.

Currently, the key to an enjoyable basketball season is a long football season.😁😭

He was responding to my post which was referencing the guy who's always talking about Pete Yonkman. He's gone so far as to say that Yonkman is essentially "IU's basketball GM".

lol. I wonder where he gets his Pete Yonkman info from. It seems to be a bit much.

Arkansas plays in Rupp February 1st. That will be one helluva interesting game for just the crowd reaction alone.

I have a hard time understanding why Arky hired him.

Story I have read is that he is a friend of John Tyson who made funding commitments to the University if Calipari was hired.

It's rarely good when donors get involved with coach hiring/firing decisions. They are not good at it. The rule applies to all schools, not just IU.

In what universe would Chris Beard leave Ole Miss for this shitshow….move along to another realistic candidate

I think he might. 8 years working with RMK.

I don't doubt that he'd give IU a listen. Thing is, no way Pam Whitten lets that happen. Not wanting to start the did he or didn't he debate. Pam wouldn't like the look. Texas didn't like the look.

Yea. As much as I want the AD selecting the coach, one thing Pam and the trustees should be reviewing is headline/reputation risk to the university. That is an important part of their jobs. I’m not debating Beard either.

I'm guessing Dolson is in the drivers seat now after doing an amazing job with FB (literally worth tens of millions of dollars to IU) and from what I can tell he wanted to move on from Woody last year (good call!). He has delivered great results as AD. I don't know who he hires, but I think there is a good chance he is left along to make the decision (no more trustee and donor input -- they don't know anything about hiring coaches) and he gets it right. Go Scott go.

Too late we lost Dusty May. I honestly think he would’ve been the perfect coach for IU at this time. He would’ve cleaned up in recruiting this state and he coaches a style that top players would love to play in. Huge, huge loss.

Last year....late in the season when the team was bubble-icious and sliding......Woodson told everybody that he was coming back this season...and that was that. Lets see if he comes out with that kind of statement again this year. If he does....he will be back in 26. It seems that what he says goes.

I’m not positive, but I’ve got a bad feeling.
