Tired of the Archie hate.

It was slightly exaggerated but when Archie was hired 2 years ago it was the 4th coach in 17 years which on average means we're hiring a new coach just about every 4 years. People are already looking to run Archie out of town after year 2. Looking for a 5th coach in a 20 year period is in no way a good recipe for establishing a winning culture, let alone sustaining one. My point stands.
News flash: things can't get much worse than current state of the program. We're a bottom half of B1G basketball program currently. How much worse can we get Rutgers?? Even they have beaten us during each of Archie's first 2 years. We're at rock bottom.
 
Right now Indiana at best is 8-10 range in the big ten if guys step up maybe 6 if things go bad we could finish last crazy season ahead.

Oh c'mon everything is great. 2 open scholarships on May 13th. What could be better?

I don’t agree with everything he does, but I’m not sitting around trying to figure out how to get rid of him. I’ve been done with the bashing of him long ago. If some of you are that hell bent on him not being good, then you don’t have to post here and can follow someone else. I’m not happy with the current state of Indiana Basketball but I’ve come to realize the past several months that there is a lot of blame to go around. Including us fans.


Bump, because I think this is funny.
 
Wow.. this reminds me a long time ago when I lived in Hickory we had a Navy veteran who coached our team. Can't remember his last name but Coach Norman they called him. Same thing as what's going on here. People disenchanted. Young boy named Jimmy decided to play only if coach stayed. Wouldn't it be ironic if say, transfer Parker Stewart only decides to play if Coach Archie stays? This very well could be the turning point and shot in the arm your program needs!

I have noticed that as the season has gone on, I have seen a strong inverse relationship in my coming to this site. The more I see the people hating on CAM, the less desire I have to visit here.

I thought it may be due to IU's less than stellar play this year, but in all honesty in other "bad years" I still came here a lot. Even when the CTC issue was playing out, i still came here a lot. i think THIS year I do not want to be here to deal with the constant arguing, name-calling and negativity.

These condtions do not add to the enjoyment I should get from being here. If I am not enjoying the experience than why shoud I be here? So my time spent being here is decreasing significantly.

He is not unobjectively not good and he has made like $10M off of IU already for being not good and not living up to known expectations. He needs to go, the only thing I disagree about is whether this is the right time in terms of a replacement

Oh yeah, reminds me of the time I just got out of Vietnam, started a shrimping boat, joined the A-Team for a while, until I ran cross the country and fell in love with computers

You don't get the POINT! There is no consistent enjoyment of IU Ball till this gets fixed. My enjoyment of bad basketball isn't mitigated by your defense of it.
 
R.I.P. fpeaugh, while we’re at it.
Naw, eff him.


I've been waiting all afternoon to post this because I wanted to be 100% sure. I got a text this morning about it and admittedly I thought it was a rumor at first. I've been waiting to make sure its 100% before posting.
I can say with 100% confidence that Billy and his wife were in Bloomington this morning.
I don't see any scenario where he and his wife come to town and he doesn't take the job. It's happening!!!

I haven’t read on here one time a person say they hate Glass or Archie. Stating someone should get fired doesn’t mean you hate them. Glass seems like a nice guy, but I still think he should be fired and no I still don’t hate him.
Agree. I do not want anything bad to happen to Archie. I just want a more successful coach. I think he will be fired in 2022 or 2023. I just wish it were now to hopefully avoid 2 more years of mediocrity.

So he is subjectively good, is that what you were trying to say?

I think we have more a$$es here now. They think their opinions are facts when they're not and they think other opinions can't be tolerated. It makes the place near worthless a lot of the time. It's not usually enjoyable so I'm not even lurking as much as I used to.

When the team has sucked for 20 years you aren't gonna get the deep dives into the team and stats like that of a winning program. You had posters spend hours daily on really formulating posts and thoughts about this program. People spend less time, less interest, less tolerance. Mix that in with the internet evolving, there ya go. Also about 10 places to talk IU bball now, they all are the same. Program sucks and people are not afraid to tell ya how they think.
 
All you bitches complaining about the environment on this board obviously didn't live through 2000-2001. Makes you sound like a bunch of bitches.

This place could stand a good, stiff dose of WiscHoosier to get it back on an (un)even keel.

just a bunch of bitches radio.

I was “Basil Fawlty,” a miscreant, among the original troublemakers whose misbehavior on THIS VERY FORUM - along with Arrus, clubjockey, IUT, StunnedMonkey, and etecnifibre, among others - necessitated Peegs himself establishing the OTF!

Oh...ok I do remember. That was a good crew. What happened to etecnifibre...always liked his videos?
