With golf and cigars and wine Woodson's schedule is pretty packed. How could he possibly fit games AND recruiting into that?

That sounds like adequate cause to me.

How did I not know that was an option when I was there?

Yes. So was billiards when I was at IU.

That's different how? He already only listens to himself.

This is IU, we'd probably just end up with Rosemond or someone.

Well that'd be real mature.

Meanwhile we'll get one of Woodson's friends and continue to wallow. Maybe nepotism will strike again and we'll end up with Isiah Thomas in a GM role, because he did so well as coach and executive.

To think there were actually some on this board that thought it was a good hire.

Woodson once got overlooked for a job he never should've had, him and his friends got their feelings hurt. That kind of injustice simply could not be allowed to stand. Did you think IUBB was serious? After the last 25 years?

He looks thrilled the women's coach is sitting next to him.

The 1on1 has to come to Mike Woodson.

Are you sure you want the answer to that? If you ask a question you don't want to know the answer to then prepare for an answer you don't want to hear.

Pretty sure he knows Buckner's name. "Yo Quinn, Mike Woodson's about to get fired. Little help?"

Woodson called him Tim.

I guess I should give IU some credit, they're run so poorly it almost makes congress look functional. Which is an achievement on it's own.

The mediocre NBA coach was/is a friend. Pure, unadulterated nepotism is all it is.

I'm not sure he knows how to identify players and build the roster. He never had to, a GM always did that in the NBA.

And his buddy has his back.

I'd be rooting for Yale ready to call Pearl. What they're doing so just so stupid it's mind boggling; I know they weren't serious when they hired Woodson but they're somehow even more unserious than I thought.

5 NCAA championships 22 B1G titles 46 All-Americans 1 administration that always manages to somehow get even dumber

Them someone he trusts had better tell him how to assemble a roster or that the game is perimeter oriented today.

Gotta protect his friend. His friend predictably sucks at the job he was given but that's irrelevant. Pure nepotism.

If he won't retire and it's known the expectations won't be met, and the ones Jerry listed 100% won't, then there's no reason to give him another year. I doubt the pool of potential coaches would be any better if they have a year to see how much of a mess Woodson can make. They might actually be dumber than I thought. This is basically telling he's fired effective a year from now. Forget recruiting HS kids, of course he'd have to be on the road to do that.
