Fire Coach Woodson Thread

Why couldn’t we have hired Oats years ago…………

I don’t see another Oats on the come up.  
 

 

No one saw Oats either. That's why he landed at Alabama. 

Oats won't the last good mid-major coach to do well at the high major. 

IU won't hire any of those good coaches, but don't worry. They are out there.

Part of me just feels so bad for Woodson, I mean, opposing teams fans chanting to keep you is very funny but has to hurt the ego. The worst part is, the fan base is so obviously over Woodson that now opposing teams fans are making a joke out of it (and it already is one). That wouldn't happen if it weren't such an obvious thing and I bet in his mind he feels betrayed in a way. That's why he's recluding and not doing his media stuff, etc. The thing is... even if the results were not good, the fans wouldn't have such "visceral" feelings if he at least made it look like he were putting in the maximum effort this entire time to win big like he said he wanted to do. 

But by now the story is already written.

We’ve really hired and held onto a guy who has fans taking the time to create signs prior to a game ironically saying we should extend him. Opposing fans chanting we want him. Thats the current state of Indiana Basketball. This has to end. I didn’t really care before if it happened before the season ended as long as it happened, but this can’t continue. Our program is being clowned by…. Checks Notes….the Northwestern student section. To say nothing of Assembly Hall or B1G teams with an actual hostile environment. He cannot be allowed to finish this season. 

….the bolded is a slap in the face to IU BB and making a joke of this once prestigious program! Dolson has to make it stop!

Fire Woodson now . He has no clue how to run offense. They come out of time outs and the vast majority of times get a terrible shot. The team is finally playing hard but look so lost on offense.

I think we all have been there for awhile.  I think the biggest concern is the home game vs Maryland when a FIRE MIKE WOODSON chant breaks out again!

Collins has really carved out a very nice gig for himself at Northwestern. He’s sort of their Coach K lol. Nightmare match up for Woody head to head.

I believe he is differently one of the top coaches in the BIG. Please don’t bring up his overall record. His players always play hard and stay in games with far less talent. Would love to see him at IU.

Yes I want Woodson gone and it needs to be now..but, I am afraid that the interim coach will go on some kind of "run" and the university would hire him full time. Team has quit on Woodson. Possible, not likely, they could end up with a solid B1G record and win a few tournament games with Rosemond or Hunter. 

Very rarely does hiring an interim coach full time work out. Yes, Michigan in 1989. I don't think Texas and OSU are happy with their full time hires. The Las Vegas Raiders just fired their interim coach that they chose over Harbaugh.

Not going to argue about it but some of us were like foaming at the mouth to watch Nate Oats in a big job. Every time I try to make the case for certain mid-major coaches someone decides that guy doesn’t have the Special High Major Voodoo and tries to argue with me but if you know what you’re looking for you can have a degree of confidence that Oats and May and so on are special before they ever make $1M

I have no worries of that. It’s been stated many times that Dolson doesn’t see any of the assistants as head coaches.

“Archie didn’t work out” — you’re right, but he also never had an elite o or d at Dayton, was coasting on one tournament run, and a recognizable name. Some of us were worried before Indiana State buried us under a barrage of 3s in game 1 of his tenure!
