Fire Coach Woodson Thread

[rcbowla 7,136]

Don't F*** on Dolson Yet!  He has one chance to hire a BB coach to fix this mess!  I think the admin did a good job on the FB coach hire. Let's let Dolson get his own BB hire in place and see where we go?!

This is his hire

I think it is time for the fans who are done with Woodson to make their voices heard. Not just on message boards and social media but to the actual decision makers. Like my Political Science Professor said, if you don't vote then you have no right to complain about what is happening. So get out their and join me in emailing the administration and let your voice he heard. I haven't emailed Dolson since the PSU game and probably won't until the season ends.

You've come a long way Scott

I didn't watch but the program is in such disarray that a home loss to Northwestern is not only unsurprising but expected.

I only saw the last sx minutes so I almost got to see us get over the hump. The armond hill magic almost worked.

Yeah I don’t get the people saying it’s not a talent issue. We have probably one of the worst backcourt rotations among power conference teams. It’s horrible. And that, just like in-game coaching, falls on Mike Woodson. 

"We have talent, we just need to try harder!" --has been a coping mechanism going back to the Archie years.

Unfortunately I believe a blank check, not emails, is what is going to push the envelope here. If I’m a donor with the kind of money to buyout Woodson, not sure I’m signing that check until I get some reassurance leadership at the top is in place.

A blank check will help, but so will a landslide of emails to both Dolson and the BoT.

That's a lie bad coaches tell themselves when they cannot get over the hump.

Ware, Reneau, Mbagko and to an extent Galloway equates to talent. It is definitely front court heavy but it's talent. I'd also argue guys like Gunn, Banks and Cupps would be better in different schemes or under different coaches. CMW is just a failure in evaluating a roster and scheme. He was a good player and apparently a good interior recruiter (probably not him) but can't coach himself out of a Spiderman sleeping bag. As much as people talk trash our assistants have done much more than our HC. At least they gave him "some talent".

The problem is the fan base is so strong and supportive of the basketball program that I believe this all falls on deaf ears because no matter what, the Indiana faithful will always pack Assembly Hall. The University knows this.

I say to the administration, grow a pair and do what OSU did to Holman and fire Mike Woodson now!  Maybe it will be addition by subtraction

I'm hoping if we lose at home to Nebraska on Wednesday then Woodson announces his retirement by the end of the week. 

It's not happening, but all I have is hope right now.

Wade and Reneau are good players, though Reneau’s defense can be pretty bad. Galloway would be a good bench player averaging 20 mpg as your 3rd or 4th best guard. He’s nowhere near good enough to be a34 mpg guy like he is on this team. Mgbako is a bad defender, bad athlete, and is shooting 38% from the field. Had he stayed at Duke, he probably wouldn’t even be in their rotation. I don’t think any of Cupps, Gunn, or Banks have demonstrated anything to suggest they’d be contributors this year under a better coach. This team would be a bubble team even with a good coach. They just don’t have the horses.

I emailed the AD after we lost in the NIT in 2017 and a few days later he was fired. Not saying that was why but it doesn't hurt.

He fired Allan after I emailed him after the Purdue game. I have emailed him twice after the first Purdue game and the PSU game

I can see your point and won't give much pushback. However, I do think there's plenty of talent here to make the tournament this year with a better staff.

The IU athletic clown show does a solid job with their “unseen” influence either through loyalist or useful idiots too. The athletic department would be in a much better place if they put in the work upfront as they do trying to clean shits up.
