Fire Coach Woodson Thread

[Hornsby 2,329]

A commitment today doesn’t move the needle one smidge. Year 5 for Woodson would be no different than year 1. We’ve seen the same basketball the last four years, except this year we’re seeing a more expensive product without any improvements. 
 
Fire Mike Woodson! 

Barely anyone is talking about the verbal. That shows the level of interest in the program right now.

A colleague gave an interesting observation to me earlier today…the past two games Mike has worn a tie with the opposing team’s colors. He says Mike knows he’s gone. Take it with a grain of salt, but he ain’t lying about the tie colors. It used to be red and only red until now.

Mike isn’t a true fan.

Maybe he's just a fashion guru and he's wearing ties that match his underwear?

I actually agree with never been got Scott on this. We shouldn’t just take it as a given that Woodson is gone next year.

IU cares about optics more than anything else. They will care about the optics of firing an alum who made 3 tournaments in 4 years. It shouldn’t matter. Anyone with a pulse can see the issues over the past four years. But the IU administration will care. That’s why I’m so adamant that it’s vital we miss the tournament this year. 

Your “never been got Scott” comment has me rolling. Is that a common saying that I’ve never heard before or did you just come up with it? Because the funny thing is my name is Scott as well. And I have never heard it before. If you just came up with it genius.

people concerned that we make the tournament and he stays because of optics?  Short of making the tournament and actually getting a first round win, are the optics of firing a 66 year old coach with elite NIL who has never been to the round of 32 really bad optics?  Cause I don’t see it.  This team was picked to finish second in the conference.

[Hornsby 2,329]

FWIW, most three point shots in general are open shots…..players shouldn’t be taking them if they are well contested.  That said, there is a reason that teams shoot a high percentage when they shoot a lot of them — they are getting mostly open looks.  
 
Northwestern took 27 threes against IU…that’s a season high.  Simply means the defense was giving too many open looks, which sucks.

Yeah but Woodson said he is going to get that fixed. Lol.

No stroke. In fact I think Maryland can stick it to the king Sunday and the boo birds will be out in full force.

Welp…. He’s definitely wearing a purple tie…. Lol

For me?

Anyone that is rooting for Maryland this weekend so that fans boo and Woodson gets fired can kiss my a$$.

The IU powers that be are well aware we need a new coach. But never root against IU.

Anyone who has watched Woodson's teams realizes this. There's a reason that so many guards have amazing games against IU. It's like a game of H-O-R-S-E when they play against the Hoosiers, because they get so many wide open shots. 

The games IU wins typically occur because those guards just miss those wide open looks. It doesn't mean that IU's defense was necessarily great - it just means that the other team didn't shoot well. But they still got good looks...

Spot on but Woodson is a delusional a-hole who thinks the opposing teams missing wide open looks is good defense

He's been to the round of 32. They then proceeded to get destroyed by Miami. Your point stands, though, he hasn't done enough in his 4 seasons or when they've made the tournament that firing him would look bad.
