Fire Coach Woodson Thread

Recommended Posts

This needs to be restated as Duke and UNC have had 10x the recent success that IU has. Seems there is a formula that works and it isn’t what IU is doing. Hiring by stakeholders/committee etc doesn’t work. We’re the poster child for that

 

Do you think Bubba pushed out Mack Brown without getting the support of his President? Do you think he’d push Hubert out without doing the same thing? If not, then they’re not conducting things any differently than we do.

In all seriousness, who would be retained to provide that level of coaching mid-season? 

All the guys Woodson fired. Lol

Matta, Fife, Howard would probably have these guys playing reasonable basketball and holding them accountable.

Seriously though, just a hungry, respected voice. We might not have that on the staff after watching the huddles. Maybe just let Goode be a player coach. Save 7 million and let Galloway dad and Cupps dad coach them. Seriously.

Sorry... I can't see you being in this thread for any significant time and not be posting in defense of Woodson et al. Just not possible, IMO.

Haven’t posted in defense of Woodson et al. I’ve merely tried to explain how, why and when the powers-that-be do what they do.

Not propping him up in any way. I’ve already said I’d be shocked if he’s retained, and I wouldn’t oppose it unless he has great success this year. People see what they want, not what’s actually there.

Why will you be shocked if he is retained after the season?  Is there a groundswell to replace him when the season is over?

You continue to explain why the fans are so pissed and dumbfounded with the level of stupidity. The fact that you and the rest of the fanbase cannot name one assistant that can earn the players respect and motivate them to play hard is bananas. How the f did we get here? Wait, I know.

I haven’t explained why the fans are so pissed and dumbfounded. I’ve explained how, why and when IU makes decisions related to coaches.

You should tell them they’re morons and that other universities are laughing at them for being so incompetent. Haven’t won anything since 87 and I’m so glad many more are waking up to the reason why.

No one cares the how and why 

Too be honest, I enjoy all of it.

I like saying ‘Fire Woodson’ when he deserves it. I like explaining why he deserves it. I don’t mind reading why it won’t happen. It’s all fair. At this point it’s 3 AM at the poker table and Woodys stack Is getting thin, he’s pushing all it and gambling. Only Woodson believes he will win. The rest of Casino knows he’s about to bust. In the Spring we get CoachSZN and PortalSZN and it’s going to be a glorious 2 months with Dolson aiming for the stars.

Nope. He has posted on rivals IU board with a different handle.

If he hasn’t broken through to a top three finish in the conference and a Sweet Sixteen tournament spot, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see him replaced. If those results aren’t attained, I believe there will be sufficient momentum internally to go in a new direction. Remember, though, that Crean’s ending wasn’t a consensus-based decision. Somebody won that battle, though.

What do you think is the “why”?

If there isn’t sufficient support, do you believe Dolson could, or would even try, to win a similar battle?
