Fire Coach Woodson Thread

Recommended Posts

It’s not gonna be Dusty May guys. He will be coaching while we are trying to fill 11 scholarships through the transfer portal.  
 
Dolson will have his work cut out for him.  Just not sure who can get a 1 year flip.  We definitely need a coach with some enthusiasm and some general intellect to read and react during a game.  
Brad Steven's or beard or just keep woodson lol

We’re Indiana. After we spend 750k on a search firm we’ll have our pick of warmed over leftovers. We could have Chris Mack, or Brownell or maybe even an Archie Miller.  
 

Championships right around the corner next year.

I don't think it was by a large enough margin, but I think the "We Want Woodson" chants won't go unnoticed at all. 

Prayer for Lighting the Shiva Candle - Ritualwell

If you are so inclined, join me in a prayer to the basketball gods that our calls are answered on Friday evening/Sunday morning with an announcement that he is done at the end of the season (if not sooner... though I don't expect that...) 

Probably a 1% chance but I'll be checking the news at 5pm ish Friday. I'll still hold out hope until about 10AM Sunday.

I don't think he'll want to endure another game like ILL.

And I think he'd like the idea of a "retirement tour" type send off in AH all season.

Is Indiana University going to fire a black coach who just finished top 5 in the league and made the NCAA tournament 3 out of 4 years?  I think you’re insane if you think so.

Now it’s possible he’s just really tired of it all and will retire.  I just can’t see his ego allowing it even if he was tired of it all.  That would give us non true fans the win and he can’t do that.

What do you mean 'just finished top 5'?  You mean three years ago?  I'm sorry, but finishing fifth in the league one time three years ago doesn't buy anyone any time.

In terms of 'is Indiana going to fire a black goach'.....get out of here.  Made the tournament and never advances past the round of 64 with Indiana's NIL money is an epic failure.  Compare his resume to Mike Davis.  Davis went to the tournament four times in six years and had actual tournament success -- championship game and won first round games in two other years.

I mean between your own fans chanting to fire him, booing him 

And opposing student sections chanting they want him to stay... 

You have to hope that it's such a laughing stock they're forced to make a change. 

A man with any sense of shame would take the opportunity to retire and gracefully step away. 

It does make me question his "obvious" love for IU when he just so clearly is not able to get results nor putting in a commensurate amount of work/effort. It's the same mistakes every time. Same lack of preparation. It's old. Hard to watch. 

This pretty much sums up the entire 4-year nightmare. It was a bad idea from the start... and you've nailed where it ends.

I just hope the administration doesn’t rush to judgment on this coaching staff. There is a process the administration has gone through the last 25 years so let’s let that play out. Text I just got from Cathy

“It’s not his fault that NW made 13 3’s.They won’t do that again this season. We battled back when down 14.”

Brad Stevens or any coach with D1 HC experience other than Woody...

Shoot, maybe walk into the gym of some of the best Indiana HS teams and interview their coaches over Woody next year...

The BOT and our fanbase have been on completely different wavelengths for a long time and it probably won't ever change. So infuriating.

If he is on the sideline Sunday, I may actually watch to see how bad it is from the fans.. kinda like a wreck...

Without a doubt the most interesting thing about that game (in the first half anyway) will be how short of a leash the crowd has with Woody / the team before they start with the groans, boos, etc. I think the groans will continue happening pretty early when there is sloppy or bad play... Boos for lack of effort... They probably need to be down 20+ before they start chanting to fire Woody though if I had to bet

Woodson has lost to northwestern 5 straight times. Last time that happened, JFK and Dean Martin weren’t even born. The PGA tour and NHL didn’t exist. Women couldn’t vote and Babe Ruth had never hit a home run yet and we were still 4 years away from the end of WW1.

Can any of that work for “firing with cause”
