Dolson had a verbal agreement with Brad, he just couldn’t get him to sign anything. But he also knew that Woody wanted this job.

Obviously irrelevant now, but if that’s true, and of course it’s a complicated situation, and easy for me to say, but that doesn’t speak very highly of Stevens.

No, I see Woodson retiring at 76 with a 0.725% winning percentage and multiple Big Ten Titles!

I hope we don’t settle for Big Ten Chanpionships. Is he going to the final four and a championship game? That’s where Indiana is suppose to be.

Always a chance that brad said he’d agree but give the Celtics a chance to counter

Now we’re hiring a guy who wouldn’t be hired without an IU degree.

This is the part I have issue with.  Would IU have a chance with a 25 yr NBA, 2X NBA HC if he didn't want IU to ties to IU and wanted them to succeed? Who needs who more?

It’s the 5 out offense, find the mismatch, beat your guy off the dribble. 3 point shots or in the paint. The rest are bad shots.

Yep. Not a fan. Good luck to Mr Oats but if it were my money, I wouldn’t have paid ten mil to chase a guy like that either. Not saying he’s not a good coach. Just a preference. 
 

Woodys issue won’t be xs and os but getting the strategy across to 19yr olds.

Come on, the Indiana ties was the main factor. You can’t tell me he’s a candidate without playing here. We can find NBA assistant coaches with similar if not better resumes if we wanted to go that route.

Winning the big ten was the only thing RMK ever talked about according to former players.  With this philosophy he sure did well

Sorry you’re getting bombarded with questions, @Chris007, but what do you think the point of Calbert’s interview was?

He spoke to him, maybe to gauge interest in being an assistant. The athletic board wanted Stevens, Alford, Cheaney. He tried one, interviewed the other and one wasn’t a candidate. Checked all boxes

I find it hard to believe Woody is going to be at some big Xs and Os disadvantage in today’s college game.

I agree and am surprised by those that assume, in spite of all his NBA experience, that he is in dire need of x/o help.

Maybe they are concerned Woody doesn’t know the “4 years to learn” pack line?
