Soon to RETIRE Coach Woodson Thread

[Golfman25 6,014]

So since Woody decided to "step down" we shouldn't see a transfer of some $8 million, right?

Nah he will have his cake and eat it too.

I hope we find a way to rattle off some wins now. Something to cheer for AND a coaching search? Sign me up.

In other words, please don't boo on Saturday.  LOL.  :)  

Kind of in the vein of "don't thing about green and orange striped caterpillars"...

So, based on the comments from the burner accounts, some insider info here, this reads like Dolaon was telling Woody he gone and then they spent last two days with the bodyguards, whomever convincing Dolson to let him retire at end of the year…..bad move imo….he wins a few games and he says “I’m back! Baby”..?

I get it, some media dudes have "reported" it.  Yet it's 3:00 on a Friday afternoon.  24+ hours after the "reports" broke.  Yet nothing from the University.  Why do you think that is?  

Scott Dolson now

No chance. The delay was to get things in writing.

This is the gist of the note... well written.

"At an appropriate time, Coach Woodson will articulate his feelings (and try not to scream and cry). 

Please don’t boo on Saturday. He was a really good player, remember? 

Coach Woodson helped IU become a national leader in the NIL space and transfer portal. Refute allegations that Woodson is only in this for himself/reiterate he loves IU basketball. List other old playing legends and accomplishments from the 1980s. 

Please clap."

And we though last year's Senior Day was a crapfest... this one will be epic on so many levels.

The “compromise” by Dolson to let this go down this way saved us some good cash on the buyout. Lot of litigation today. Make no mistake about it, this was not Woody’s decision to retire.

He was going to be fired. He can convince himself he is retiring but we all knowhe truth. That's was bs just like the Kool aid press release

I'm satisfied.  Would I rather not see him on the sideline ever again? Sure....Am I ready to move on now that the decision is made? Absolutely.  Shall we move this over to a new "Hire Brad Stevens" thread?

The press release just now screams “Forced out”. Woody not releasing a quote was a dead giveaway of him being fired. 
 

We did it folks! We got rid of the problem!

[SlammySammy 475]

They need to understand that if the fans boo, it’s his fault and his fault alone….he had the good graces of the fan base …but he couldn’t keep it….he decided to ruin his image for younger fans who never seen him play and how good he was….

Is what it is ... at least he's not coming back next year.

I'll probably mainly tune out after tomorrow. Enjoy good CBB and March Madness.

Interest in IUBB will be back when we're in the height of coach search season. Looking forward to better days. 

[SlammySammy 475]

I vote we keep this thread up until we verify he’s turned in the last key to his office….dont trust them 

[bodsbums 182]

Classy statement, over the top for sure. It doesn’t take too many brain cells to figure out this isn’t really how it went down but that’s ok. I’m fIne with letting Woody save face. I know some of you are much more vindictive, but I just don’t have that in me. IU took the high road and I’m glad. 
 

statements like this often end with… “ A nationwide search for the new coach will begin immediately”. That was conspicuously absent in this glazing of Woody

I am happy. Coach SZN and I can feel less weird about wanting us to win. Also, the announcement specifically mentioning the Michigan game is pretty GD funny. They know that's gonna be ugly if we start to lose.

Same trash basketball to end the year.

Woody now can win 4 or 5 of 8 and say if the fans weren’t so mean we could have made the tournament. It was always the mean fans fault.

Whatever, still rooting for a 10 seed in the tournament so the kids get a moment.
