Fire (or Force 'Contemplated Retirement') Coach Woodson Thread

[IUHAHN81 2,451]

Hopefully they build the WHITE WHALE a new office. I'm not interested in any leftover Woody juju rubbing off on him! 

[IU Prof 1,088]

Wasn't reporting the Goodman quote on Stevens as a fact, just FYI. Goodman went on to say we should hire Pitino.

Are Kathy and 71 retiring alongside Mike? Feels a little troll-less around here today.

I think Stevens would have better odds than a 72 year old Rick Pitino.

Just seems pointless getting mad at them for not announcing something that might not have anything to announce 

Scott, this is a PR nightmare.  There is no good way to say it or defend it.  This will be used against us for a minute.  It will impact our recruiting negatively as much as Woody has.  It’s ok to admit it.

I know, sorry. I just can't resist the opportunity to let the doofiness go unstated.

As to the bolded above: I rest my case.

I would rather have a bowl of Pinto Beans as coach then pitino

I'll put up nothing, but I'll take your house if we do.  Deal. 

Lol, I took it down cause I already said my peace.  Don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade, but that possibility left 15 years ago.

He was dead on about Woodson from the beginning so he kind of deserves this...

Where’s Kathy and that 1971 fella? 

Still trying to figure out if a coach has ever been fired before seasons end yet.

 

 expect we won’t hear much from them for a while

Indiana is trying to give Woodson the respect of going out the right away as an alum and "retiring", source told @TheFieldOf68. "Everyone is now fine with it," said one source close to the situation. "All the boosters have come to terms with the fact that it's time."

I know the wet dream has been BS since my Scout days, but the best we get is Beard, imo.

I'd be shocked if IU took a chance on Beard.

[Home Jersey 10,138]

I'm feeling pretty dang visceral right now. If Woodson is gonna finish the year, I don't care if he gets booed every time out. 

Whole thing being so messy, IMO, just goes to show who Mike Woodson is... more evidence of what we already know.

So basically what all of us predicted.

Dolson is lucky I'm just a fan on a message board and don't have access to his office, or else I'd be pounding on his door screaming at him to FIRE WOODSON AND DO IT NOW. 

 

Seriously, this is so incredibly lame and what losing programs do.

He just might be an awful human
