Fire Coach Woodson Thread

I haven't called him any names but in my dealings with him as a player and as an assistant, he was the definition to me of a prick. But each their own. I don't speak about him much because I don't think he will ever have anything to do with the program again. 

So around about way of calling him a prick ;)

Brother... he choked a player..... he should have been fired, with cause, on the spot.

But there was a 0 tolerance policy that Brand put in place after the choking...he knew Knight couldn't live up to it.  So back to being Brand's fault LOL.

So was knight but as long as he won people didn't care. Roy Williams is a slimeball who cheated but they didn't care. He won.

We could have not opened the checkbook and Cig probably goes somewhere else, the AP Coach of the Year is in high demand.  He's not a slam dunk, but he is the best we can do by some margin.  We had to take a calculated risk and lock him up.  If we didn't, just shutdown our football program and we'll move to a smaller conference.

Agreed IU needed to lock him down.  I just hope (fingers cross) that CIG is a long term savior as he was his first year.  If he consistently makes bowls (winning records) during his tenure here then well worth it.

Minnesota should be able to keep players after this year due to the revenue sharing in the Big Ten. All teams will have 20 million to spend on basketball and football.

So basically you are saying we no longer or anyone else for the matter needs donors/booster for NIL coffers.  Revenue sharing gets funneled into NIL coffers and can be paid directly from the universities? 

See this seems to me to be illegal/NCAA violation of how NIL is suppose to be paid.

Reading about you clowns debating over if dane is a nice guy or a prick is fun and all but not important imo. Firing woodson and saving thos program is absolutely top priority before we get humiliated to many more times!
Just a FYI alot of college players that play at a high level are arrogant pricks! This dude coached with Tom izzo for how long? Mike woodson is a arrogant prick! Alot of head coaches are assholes so if fife is a big ******* then maybe he has what it takes to coach at a high level! Look at the legendary coaches for the most part. We're or are they considered nice guys?
Now back to Firing this dude and trying to salvage what is left of a once proud basketball program that now more resembles north western!

Revenue sharing gets paid directly from the university to the athletes, yes. I would count this as a separate payment than NIL but in the end the combinrd amount is what will go to the athletes. Not using one source would be a mistake so both revenue sharing and NIL will be used.

Revenue sharing has a cap. Next year it is $20.5M per university to be split among all sports and athletes as the universities see fit.

Fife couldn't win at IPFW? 

That’s not exactly true. IPFW had just went D1 and were terrible. He helped build them up, they joined a conference and he had two winning seasons before he left. Incredibly tough job and I think I read he was barely making 6 figures. I’m sure his assistants made nothing.  
 

He’s done nothing since that makes me want him at IU, but his stint at Fort Wayne was at least respectable.

He did OK.  He certainly didn’t make any friends there.

I just got a message from Woody's agent.  Apparently Woody and Fife played a game of rock, paper, scissors and Woody won so he gets his thread back.  Let Fife rest in peace.

Ok, but Fife hasn't died.  :)   

 

Oh and Fire Mike Woodson.
