Fire Coach Woodson Thread

Can we please just end this disaster already?

The only way to inject some life into this program is to remove the guy who is stepping on its throat.

Everyone wants him gone...well almost everyone, but  I see absolutely no one on this staff that wouldn't make this a bigger clown show.

The best scenario, which won't happen, is for Dolson to have a sit down with  Miserable Mike and to layout that he is gone after the season, and to explain the most gracious way and best way to go about it would be to announce, near the start of the B1G conference play season, that he has set this team on the right path ( an ego saving lie), but he is going to move on to his next phase of life after the season.

 

That allows him to be the (fake) controller of his destiny and also lets prospective hires  have their agents put out feelers and for IU to get a head start on vetting such.

Again, way too much common sense to ever happen unfortunately

Woodson probably would never openly admit it, but I bet he has the philosophy that he does not need to focus on what other teams do.  He is good enough to just do what they do better than whoever it is. Which is really crazy considering the legandary coach he played for was probably the most prepared coach ever to walk the sidelines of a basketball court. 

Does Woodson really even focus on other teams? …he has his assistants like Ya focus/scout the other teams for him…which frankly is scary in itself

The longer he stays, the more damage he causes.  It's such a shame we didn't move on from Woody last year.  It was so obvious.

Instead, we let him waste $6M in NIL, recruit a mediocre portal class, basically whiff on an entire HS recruiting class, and likely deliver another crappy season that further erodes fan interest and the IUBB brand.

If we had hired a new coach, we could be eight months into the road to recovery right now.  The $6M could have been better spent and I'd guess our HS recruiting class would be much better.  Plus we could be winning right now.

It's a shame.  IUBB is still very special and it shouldn't be neglected like this.  It can be so much more for the players, university, and fans.

Not being rude here. Do you think Coach Woodson right now could tell you where all of his players are from? I’m guessing he knows roughly half or maybe 2/3’s. Only shot he has is if they’re born on a fairway or near a clubhouse. 

Hell…does Woodson even know all the players’ names on this current team? At a bare minimum Sleepy Mike probably mispronounces several.

Feed the football program, starve the men's basketball team for a few years.  Get a new money printer started over at Memorial Stadium because as long as we refuse to humor the NIT, we shouldn't bother with this farce.

Starting to feel like this may be the plan. If so, I’m done with IU. So hope this isn’t the case

He can't even focus on HIS OWN team (ok, the Cooks and Simons' team)... but he can count the cheddar and enjoy the perks of being king.

I’m fine with bball getting a lot of NIL for the new coach.  The new coach, Scott, and donors do need some better procedures in place to avoid doing stuff like paying Leal $400K.  He’s worth half that and the remaining $200K needs to be saved or go elsewhere (other bball players or FB).

Finally a signature win. All the “real fans” should be proud!
The king has to be riding high after that big upset win. Now upset Winthrop and we can start talking elite 8 again.
