They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[Hoosierfan2017 22,579]

Lol what a trash statement but if it’s what was needed to rid this program of Mike Woodson then so be it. The 4-year disaster is finally over. Good freaking riddance.

The Woody era is almost over.

But my god is he an insecure little baby. Just leave with your head held high. You failed - admit it, take it like a man and move on. Why keep this up? No one buys any of this garbage.

I say if he wins tomorrow, he's done. He just wants the fans to cheer him off the floor chanting his name perhaps even being carried off by his players. On to the next.

You gotta think if he actually cared about “taking the focus away from him”…he’d step away and let someone else finish the season.

Has Kathy come on to say she told us they don’t make moves mid-season?

Reality ...

nightmare of a hire since Day 1 is finally over.

I remember calling my uncle (who has since passed away) and telling him "well, we hired a former player" .... he quickly shot back "who? Alford?" 

I'll never forget the disgust in his voice when I when I told him it was Woodson....like he couldn't believe we'd even consider him.  I'll have a beverage for him tonight!

Yep but he doesn't. It's all about him.

I can’t stand Mike Woodson.  When he’s gone, I’m good with him never stepping foot in Bloomington ever again.

One last time, for old time's sake...time to let Woody cook.

I don't see the Habsburg's jaw, though, in your Photoshop, so maybe not...

It was weird, but Scott did it.  Good job Scott, I’m sure it was not easy behind the scenes.

Scott is on a roll. Last year he fired our loser football coach and 4 days later introduced our new coach who won AP Coach of the year and got us into the CFB playoffs.  This year he forced out the worse bball coach we've probably ever had.  The letter was extremely well written although he probably threw up in his mouth a few times composing it! I like the fact though that he took the high road and showed class, even though it wasn't earned. Makes IU look good to the outside world and doesn't change things.  Just so so so glad this mess is over.  I can now watch the games without being conflicted on whether to wish us to win or loose.

Anyway, Scott's on a roll, what's his next big move? I'm thinking it really could be the "Masshole" this time, but whoever it is I think will be great... Just my 2 cents...

I defended her several times but ultimately she was wrong. (and by association me as well).

Maybe she can salvage a bit of her credibility by coming on and just admitting she was wrong about how this would play out.

Here you go…

I get a bad feeling this may not go as well as they hope. I hope I am wrong

I would guess if she does come on, she'll say that Woody retired, so he didn't really get "fired during the season." 

So the process was still followed. LOL

He’s still here… this is all nuts. We knew he was gone at the end of the year, this does nothing for us.

he’s still here to start 3 bigs and fumble end of game execution. He needed to be walked out… this is nuts
