Fire Coach Woodson Thread

You don’t just quit coaching completely. He’s coming home once Woody gets shown the door next spring. Or should I say, when Woody “retires”. 

Timing is really rough for currently employed nba guys. The season doesn’t end until June and nobody is walking away from the defending champs before the season is over.

Yeah, guys usually don't go from NBA coaching to college unless they get fired. College teams are looking for coaches right about when the NBA playoffs are starting. And in most cases, NBA coaches aren't going to leave for a college job because NBA coaches consider college basketball to be a step down.

I know we keep in touch with him.

I doubt he ever comes here.  And I don’t blame him, our bball program is a mess.

It’s not really a mess. It’s problems could be fixed quickly with a real coach

"At some point." So when he was at Butler? That would make sense. Now or in the recent past? That wouldn't make sense.

It wasn’t a past tense conversation

Stevens could leave his job whenever he wants

I wouldn’t be opposed to Stevens but his decision to leave college for the nba and then his decision to leave coaching for a management role tells me he isn’t sold on being a college coach and we need someone that is all in, 100%, willlijg to go to work in the dark and come home in the dark like Cig

Celtics have assistant GM’s. They are currently for sale as well. Maybe it’s a good time to get out before you get a new boss again. 

 

LET ME DREAM!

Much easier than he could if he were currently coaching.

Does it help if I mention that he beat Miami by 11 with 4 former D2 transfers starting? 

I’m sorry, no.

Might want to take a look at the young up and coming coach at RIU. Got his team off to a great 8-0 start this year.

Miami won't even know what hit them.

God I want Dusty. I’m so impressed by what he’s done this year. Shame Michigan is smarter than us

Chris Beard treating Louisville like the mediocre team they are on their home floor. What a joke. That was an all time type loss from our beloved Hoosiers. SSAH was far from full tonight. The squad might want to get it together and try to flip this season around.

We need a swear jar kind of thing where if you mention Brad or Stevens, etc., you have to throw a buck in the jar to help defray the expense of the mod summer blowout.

We would lose every mod to alcohol poisoning after our next coach search.  People are already poised to start tracking flights and looking into horse farms

Sold! That’s amazing ball movement, player position awareness,  team connectivity, and willingnesss to work! Seems like we haven’t had a play half this coordinated in 25+ years. The coaching cred jumps out of the TV!!

This will sound like blasphemy, but BS hasn’t coached college basketball since 2013, and he hasn’t coached basketball at all since 2021. Are we sure he’d be a grand slam at this point? Would he really want the daily grind? 

As much as a part of me would love to have Stevens, he's not as much of a grand slam as he once was. He's been out of coaching, especially college, for a while.

He'd be a far better option than Woodson (dangerously low bar) though. Getting him a GM type role to oversee NIL etc could help him out.

It's a shame -- we have easier transfer rules than UM and more NIL.  He would have fit in very well here too.  He could end up being another big "what if" in the history of IUBB.
