I don't think I've ever posted before, but this has me furious! My husband and I have season tickets to the women's games. I mentioned to him not long ago that I thought it was strange that we've never seen Woody at one of the games. I guess I know why now...This attitude alone should disqualify him. Is it jealousy?? Because Teri Moren is doing a much better job of building a program than he is. 

I definitely think that has something to do with it. His ego can't handle that she is not only building a better program but is a better coach.

IF Woodson gets a GM for the basketball program maybe this could actually work.  I'm sure high level college athletics are messy to navigate with NIL and transfer portal, which is a full time job itself.  If he can get the players he needs to run the system he wants then maybe...?  I'm trying to find the positive here.  

If he thinks it'll keep from from actually having to recruit himself then it won't.

Woodson has the exact same recruiting strategy as calipari. All the people who ripped on kentuckys one and dones here we are. Difference is calipari is a way better recruiter than woodson.

The GM role is one that programs are going to in football. So athletic departments are moving in that direction. So it will depend on the person hired.  Now that the NCAA has suspended any/all NIL investigations, the GM can work with collectives and then directly talk to the players about the total compensation. So I’m assuming it’s going to be more scouting prospects and working finances. 

The role itself isn't a bad idea, using it to keep himself from doing the recruiting work is.

Gotta keep that golf schedule.

Coach Moren is the rare bright spot and even now I fear that this administration is too stupid to give her more resources to take the next step.

But don't worry because you won't believe how bad football is. :-)

I’m just waiting for Kenny Payne to get fired and then hired by Woody. That’s rock bottom for me. Watch him be the “GM”. I would almost laugh if it wasn’t so possible.

I don't understand why we can't expect a coach to actually do his job?

[IUHoosier5 1,369]

People who are afraid to do the right thing because it would hurt others’ feelings shouldn’t be in positions to make decisions. Plain and simple.

Coming to this board and reading messages from "sources" is all part of the draw and fun. Even if they do not prove to be true. 

And I get it, rumors are just rumors, some prove to be true and others false. However, something is very odd in this whole situation. Where did all the smoke come from? 

What is with the weird timing of last night's press release? Why did they not name a specific source?

And most of all, how could anybody in leadership look at this program and think it's going in the right direction? Do they not understand the college game? Do they not understand that no other program would have hired Woodson in a million years?

Being 39 years old, I've experienced more turbulence from this program than good, but like all of you, I'm hanging in there. But I'm reaching my breaking point. Why should I be so passionate about a program in which the leadership is ok with mediocrity? It's absolutely infuriating.

What do you expect from a guy that refers to himself in the third person?  Mike Woodson feels that work is beneath Mike Woodson.

[IUHoosier5 1,369]

The incompetence demonstrated FOR YEARS by this university is somehow getting worse. This is karmic.

I nearly fell out of my chair when I read that farce of showing up to sectionals a day after getting killed in the media was the first time Woody had watched Mullins in person.

Yep, and our next hire will be Michael Lewis or somebody like that. May will be long gone by next spring.

Indiana would have 7 banners if Kelvin Sampson was the current head coach.

All I can figure is trilly is blowing smoke about a mass exodus and most guys are coming back.

Because they don't care about the program. Woodson never should've had the job, but that's who they wanted so now we're stuck with him.

In short, I think the smoke was like this. One person thinks his buddy is doing great and should get a 4th year when someone he didn't respect got 4 years. Someone else wanted to have a discussion about it. After talking they compromised that you could put out feelers for the next coach. After doing so the person who put out feelers talked to everyone else and realized there were not enough votes or everyone felt the head coach was doing amazing. So they put out the announcement yesterday.
