Mike Woodson to be next IUBB coach. Thad Matta to be associate AD

[Travis Scott 248]

Woodson has a TON of coaching experience and knows how to deal with varying personalities and games. I feel like he can use various styles unlike our last two coaches. He should be able to game plan well and find matchup advantages as that is what most assistants do in the NBA. With Matta we now have someone with a Knight coaching tree history and The Butler Way. Let’s ******* go!!!

How old is Coach Woodson?

[HinnyHoosier 4,982]

I’m not watching. I’ll look at the box score, but that’s pretty much it. Going to watch IU basketball used to be fun, but all of you feel it. There’s just something wrong with the program.  Yeah he might succeed but why are we always settling  and get gaming chances ?

Don’t worry. We’ll consider taking you back once the weather gets fair.

Come on fellas, I know some of you are good at photoshop.  Let's see them.  We had Masshole Brad Stevens head on Bob Knights body, now put Woody's head on him

Answer: he’s the guy with the whole NBA in his cell phone.

Yeah, no other college head or assistant coach can say that. GMAFB

Lot of talk about the assistants. I'm generally curious if Fife would be willing to leave his Associate HC role at Michigan State to join the staff. I'd love it if he would, but I'm not convinced he wouldn't wait out Izzo.

for Fife to come I would assume 1) he feels he's 2nd in line, not 1st, to replace Izzo and 2) he would get a similar title on Woody's staff

Imagine not even giving a new coach a chance. Shows you how toxic social media is.

This is our fifth coach in 20 years. "Give him a chance" just doesn't move the needle for me anymore.

Michigan State has two associate head coaches -- Dwayne Stephens and Dane Fife.  Stephens has been there like seventeen years and I believe has been an associate head coach for seven more years than Fife.  I think most people believe Stephens is the next coach.

Oh, I knew about the two associate head coaches, but honestly wasn't aware of how long Stephens had been there. Maybe Fife joining is more realistic than I originally thought. Still think it would require a decent pay raise to entice him.

nice list here...

I really would love to know how the coaching search went down. 

You ever seen the movie “Titantic”? Same ending. 

[Banksyrules 4,793]

I will say this. I do like Thad Matta as associate AD. That is a smart hire. And it’s nothing against Coach Woodson, time and time again I defended him in a Knicks blog, it’s just  think we could have done a lot better.

It was actually Rick Bozich.
