I think he evaluated hustle type of players well that worked at Dayton.  He needed players that could put up with his **** and type of style.  Same applies for Shaka who couldn’t get it to work at Texas.  

Then why didn't his IU teams play with hustle?

Dusty May /UM constantly giving up big leads are a concern.

I haven't watched enough DM to have strong opinion, but after Stevens, if you get 8-10 yrs of Mark Few that would be hard to say no.

Nah bro.  Archie is the worst coach in IU history.  

Archie didn't have nil. Woodson is worse.

Why is Shaka killing it at Marquette but not Texas?  Some coaches just do better at those lower levels and that’s fine.  They just can’t get the best talent to do what they want.  That’s fine.

You guys aren’t even close since you’re talking “in history.” There are guys back in the early days with winning percentages in the 20 and 30 percent range

Recency bias has you guys blinded.  But honestly who cares.  Two turds in a bowl

The Zora Clevenger Era was particularly embarrassing. 

But Old Fart can probably tell you more about that.

We aren’t!  I’m really only 12.  But you do know I was kidding, just giving you a hard time!

The way Raftery and Spiro were talking about Woody, you could just about tell it was forced on him.  Scott May, Downing, and company showing up to practice to support.  Talking about how hard it was on Woody.  That doesn’t seem like the vibe when someone retires voluntarily.  Or maybe it’s a health issue, but then he doesn’t want to talk about the retirement, like he doesn’t know what to say or can’t say.

[Brass Cannon 25,127]

Please change the title to (actually fired). It’s simply not fair to Tom Crean, Mike Davis and of course Knight who did immensely more for this program to have been fired. While this nobody gets to say retired.

Read the Doyel article. He was forced out.

Health issue? Malignant Ego?

That's proves to me he thought he was untouchable even with his crap record. Hard to feel sorry for a guy who gave half an effort to the job. Arrogance and laziness are not a good combo.

To me, it was just the university firing a basketball legend a nice way.  Being forced out means you were actually fired.  What kills me is in his own delusional mind, he thinks he was doing a good job.

You my friend are giving him too much credit, it was less than 20% of the job, IMO.
