Fire Coach Woodson Thread

Recommended Posts

She is not ending speculation of that at all.

She is antagonizing people frustrated by bad basketball through her dripping condescension about processes and stakeholders, lol. 

The people on this board would be in a tizzy and want him removed mid-season regardless of what any posters here write. We have multiple blow out losses under Woodson every year. People didn't even want him to get a 4th year, of course they're going to want him gone before it's over. Coming here to say that's not going to happen isn't a revelation, it's just a reminder to not care too much about IUBB, because they're currently not a serious organization. 

She may be antagonizing but I don’t believe she’s actually wrong. There are two or three handles on here who the majority take their word as gospel and they’ve invented this narrative that Mike Woodson is coaching on a game to game basis. It doesn’t appear that is the case. It deserves to be called out.

Would you include yourself as a person who often doesn't have the slightest idea about what's going on? Just wondering

I knew he wasn’t being fired after the Illinois game, and I knew that there wasn’t and hasn’t been any sort of discussion that carries Woodson’s fate from game to game in the course of the current season. I’ve been clear about where this is headed, and when, and I haven’t wavered.

@ap2345 We need to take our info to DM's since we give so many people bad info. We might as well include @JerryYeagley23too. Then people like Scotty and AH 1925, and Cathy don't have to read it.

Maybe you can block people who don’t want to read it?  He’s been posting the same thing on HSN as well.  All while posting over there that Chris Beard is an alcoholic while not knowing anything about it.  Wild.

I suppose if that's your prerogative, to tell people what information they consume on the internet they should be believed or not, have at it. It's not very effective at making people change their minds. You say it deserves to be called out, fine... I say who the hell cares if guys on a message board want to take another poster's words at face value. Doesn't affect me one bit lol. For the record I also don't think a change will be made until the end of the season, I just don't think it adds any value to the conversation to pop in and act like people are ridiculous for thinking there's a legitimate reason to make a change mid-season simply because of their intimate understanding of this process.

With all this talk about handshake line, didn’t Woody and Underwood call off the handshake line? After the skirmish at the end of the game, I think I saw them go up to each other and turnaround and call the players off. 

When did it become the norm to have the handshake line in college basketball. I have watched a lot of old games and they didn't use to do it. RMK would usually went over to a player he really respected and talked to him but no formal line.

I don't understand the anger at the administration right now because there was never going to fire him mid season. I think to many wanted to believe they had a plan to fire him but to many are to gullible and will believe anything. Let the season play out and if they don't fire him after the season then get pissed at the administration. Why I dislike some of the rumors spread on here is that people take it as gospel and it leads to the mob mentality.
Can't we be pissed they didn't fire him last year? Can we be pissed that he had failed miserably this season so far? I think there is plenty reason to be pissed! I am not waiting to see if they fire him at the end of season before getting pissed. I only have 3 more days to get mentally prepared for the beat down Friday night!

Yep, she is trolling.  I’ll admit she is very good at it.  The reaction here is amazing.

She may be trolling. But her position that IU is slow to make decisions is true. And the smoke that a decision may be made before the season’s end is just smoke so far. That doesn’t mean it can’t happen. But while she may be trolling, she’s been correct. We will see if that changes.

Seriously though, good for Bates.  Seemed like a likeable guy that found a great landing spot.

It goes to show how stupid Woody is. All the talk was Bates wanted more NIL to support his daughter, but Woody wouldn’t give it to him. However, he’ll pay Leal 400K.

Mike Davis wasn't fired and he finished our the year

I forgot. He “resigned” and was allowed to finish out the year. 
 

If you don’t believe that he was fired, my dm’s are always open for amazing investing opportunities. Bridges galore…

They need to do away with it! Pitino has advocated for it and has had his team not participate this season. Every year there are incidents. Shake hands before the game. No one and I mean no one who loses wants to shake hands with the team that just defeated them! Dumb tradition!

I mean all the assistants have spent their life in CBB. I don't think they are world beaters, but I do think they probably understand CBB more and sometimes you just need a reset (See, Diebler, Jake)

Ya coached one game for us at a short handed Minnesota team and barely won the game.

We’ve been completely unserious from the moment Mike Woodson was hired to coach basketball. Nothing about the “process” has anything to do with winning basketball games. It’s about appeasing two program legends. Full stop. No one is saying he has to be fired right now, simply make the retirement announcement and let him finish the year. He probably gets cheered on senior night. Instead, we are supposed to believe this administration is fine with the optics of angry or empty Assembly Hall for the rest of the season? Don’t hire unqualified program legends in the first place. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

You are so thin skinned and can't take being called out but sure fan call out others
