IUFAN1976

That’s 8 years we’ll never get back!!!

Think about this, If NIL and the transfer portal hadn’t come when it did, Woodson wouldn’t have a complete team at all.

Nice post and very spot on. You captured the jest of his entire 4 years. The biggest problem that I see is #2. Coming from the NBA he never had a system nor did he try to develop one. He could have used Matta and Fife in that regard but he knew best and just wanted to recruit the highest ranked players as possible either in the portal or high school and he thought he was a good enough coach to get them to play together and develop them. Well breaking news, he sucks as a coach with no system.

I think we all are looking forward to a fresh start. He’s made us the laughing stock of the B10 and CBB but his delusional a** doesn’t see it, he’s done his job! lol! As I was watching the game with a friend at Chili’s today, I seen the same old sh*t in the first half, but the 2nd half this team played with fire and actually MW made some odd adjustments and I was thinking to myself, why didnt your stubborn a** do this much earlier. I found myself sort of interested in them actually trying to win. Now every lose just justifies MW leaving but I actually want them to win for the players and university. It was the first time this year I’ve felt like that and it must be because MW is finally leaving and I do want them to win! GO HOOSIERS!!!!

Sounds like a win-win situation!

I read this from TheDailyHoosier pertaining to the Illinois game and to me, it sounds like he’s blaming the fans: Play-by-play man Bill Raftery said that night “got to the soul” of Woodson. The Hoosiers fell behind by 30 points in the first half against Illinois and IU suffered their second-worst loss ever inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. “All hell broke loose, and we just haven’t been the same,” Woodson said.

I’m good with it! It’s not going to be a Mike Davis fiasco

You know that, I know that, heck everyone on this board knows that but his delusional a** doesn’t know that. He still thinks they are going to go on a run! Heck he thinks he’s doing a good job coaching! And he damn sure thinks he was untouchable and would be here as long as Mike Woodson wanted him to be here!

They’ve been doing that all year! That’s why they didn’t want a change, their freedom and carefree attitude could go away. If they really cared about Woodson as much as they say, maybe they should have played harder every game and practice harder too. Maybe they would have won a few more games and had a lesser deficit in the ones they lost

He obviously thinks it is successful just barely getting into the tournament and it would keep him employed, lol

I know. I think the university crap their pants on this one too. They handled it with kid gloves but MW spit in their faces. They should have just ripped the bandaid off, and sh*tcan him 2-3 weeks ago. Heck, maybe they should have done it after the Bahamas. The heck with his feelings, he obviously doesn’t care about the university, only himself

I agree with you on that. Delusional fits him! He got treated the exact same way he treated Fife and Matta. What comes around goes around.

You my friend are giving him too much credit, it was less than 20% of the job, IMO.

To me, it was just the university firing a basketball legend a nice way. Being forced out means you were actually fired. What kills me is in his own delusional mind, he thinks he was doing a good job.

Taste great, no less filling, no taste great, no less filling!

We aren’t! I’m really only 12. But you do know I was kidding, just giving you a hard time!

We aren’t talking about your era!

He’s worse than Archie. If Archie had 6 million to buy any player he wanted, I bet he would finish higher than 12th in the B10 and with Michigan State, UCLA, and Turdue games coming up, we will go lower than 12th.

Woodson is the worst coach in the B10 and IU history and it ain’t close.

He’s finally admitting he sucks!

Yes, good managers know how to delegate so they could play more golf and work less hours and still look good at work because they have capable people making him look good, but he does suck at that!

Exactly!!! Adding people to your staff that has different strengths as you and other team members is how you get better and improve! What I think it was, besides his over-sized ego, was he would have gotten found out sooner his lack of basketball knowledge and coaching abilities he has.

Thanks! It did work. Everything spot on! This whole thing spiraled out of control when he ignored Matta and fired Fife. Woodson thought he was the smartest guy in the room and had all the answers. Now I am not saying this would have worked even with Fife or Matta, but Woodson was never willing to give it a chance and now here we are. Woodson is an idiot!

That didn’t work. Dang it. I want to read that darn article but I don’t want to pay for a subscription, this sucks

Well said! It’s almost over but it was still very ugly nonetheless!
