Not legit. I think it's like the LSU situation. There are fans that are grumbling, but there is no way the administration is about to fire a coach that has been that successful and had a great season just 2 short years ago. (Both schools)

It's very legit and it doesn't fully have to do with on the field performance. Apparently there's been a mutiny of sorts amongst the players for how he has treated them.

Yeah, I got the last bit of talk about it on the radio this morning, but I really didn't know it was serious. One or two guys complaining about coaches working them to hard is not the same as a team wide mutiny. I admit that I don't know the situation.

maybe its just me, but I was actually kind of impressed by indiana somewhat, they played some pretty good teams really close this year, and got a few raw deals
