Soon to RETIRE Coach Woodson Thread

[Hoosierfanyuh 2,997]

Dusty would also have WAY more resources ($, easy admissions) at IU. We wouldn’t have a Roddy Gayle as a starting guard

We have top-5 NIL resources.  So there are probably 10 teams in our ballpark in terms of team payroll.  You can’t dismiss that.  An extra $1-1.5M of payroll is one or two very good to great players, which makes a massive difference. $2M extra payroll is 2-3 very good players.

MD, Tom, and Archie’s under the table “payroll” was tiny and nowhere near top-10.  We just didn’t do much of that, especially after probation.  They couldn’t just throw huge cash offers at players and become a finalist their recruitments.  Yea they still got some five stars, Indiana has some appeal, but it was much harder for them.

Agree MD and Archie were bad.  

I am not dismissing anything "top 5" ok-- others still pay people. 

I am not buying recruiting guys to Indiana was ever hard. 

But it's especially hard when you don't offer/recruit LEGACY RECRUITS THAT TURN INTO MULTI-YEAR BIG EAST CONFERENCE POY..... as big of a joke as Woodson is recruiting-wise, and he is a massive one, Davis has the all-time recruiting blunder. 

So you can say the NIL this and that, that's fine, MD would have still had massive blunders, even with the cash.

Yes, Davis was not a good coach. Let's not forget the Conley f-up that also lost any chance at Oden. 

Forgot about that. Luke Zeller, Oden, and Conley wouldn't even look at us because of MD.

It's Ben McCollum for me, Dusty, Brad S, Tom Crean, followed by the entirety of eligible D1 coaches, then Woodson for another year.

Well if it drops below .593, using your logic, that turd will have smelled better… right?

What are you arguing? 

Are you arguing that MD is considerably better than CMW? 

I was told MD was "the best" out of those 3 and it "wasn't even close".... and I find that to be a complete absurdity. Do you agree or disagree with that? 

[realTomCrean 1,724]

I'd rather go the old IUFB way and hire a MIC current HC before retaining Woody for another year

Maybe he was talking about his participation here?

I mean, if this crapshow gets rid of the Parasite in Chief, can't we call this season a "resounding success"?

Funny how all the Woodites were so eager to puff their chest about their predicted lack of accountability by those that wanted HIM gone, yet  they are the first to run and hide or deny seeing the predictable mess they fervently backed.

Put most of us on this thread before another year of Woodson. Most on this thread are very knowledgeable and would do a better job than him. I understand that's a low bar with his results and behavior but it's wild that it's true. It's also pretty sad. Most of the people in this thread would have IUBB in way better shape than what Woodson does. We would at least perform our coaching duties on and off the court and wouldn't be arrogant and disrespectful to the majority fanbase. It's sad that we understand what is required to be a successful coach and he is clueless.

Not really arguing the point per se, but don’t agree it’s a “complete absurdity” to say MD was the best of AM, MW, and MD. The winning percentage doesn’t tell the whole story. Then again, this entire conversation is like debating who is the tallest midget.

I don't understand how you could pick one of the three.

Woodson IS the worst coach in D1 and there's not even a debate. Only reason his record is that high is because of his weak scheduling decisions to prop himself up. His schedule both on court and in his lounge is full of cupcakes and wine(whining). Let's be real here please.

He is the worst coach in the big ten imo. He has the most resources and most highy ranked players and he still stinks.

Howard set a much higher bar at Michigan than Woodson has ever smelled at IU. A S16, E8 and a regular season B10 title. Woodson wishes he could do just one of those things.

QB would have seen to a lifetime contract for Woody if he had done any of that lol

Kind of sounds like MW too.  Mullins and Harrelson this year and many more last year wouldn’t give MW the time of day or vise versa, because if you want to be recruited by Mike Woodson, you have to go to Mike Woodson, he won’t cone to you!  Lol

It's not going to change "that" much to back up, "Mike Davis was the best and it wasn't close". like cmon lol 

So that turd smelled better? No it didn't. 

Woodson didn't have the benefit of getting BK's players. 

Woodson had a major benefit of having a Miller All American his first two seasons that was more responsible for the Ws than Woody.

I think an extension is an order. With the short amount of years left on his contract, he doesn't have enough time to recruit HS talent. 

Extension should be an automatic word that is banned or blacklisted from this website. At least until Brad arrives next Spring..

It’s such a shame there can even be a debate over MD, Archie, and Woody.  What a trio of disasters.

Rating yourself fourth on your own list is truly selfless work. We never deserved you Tom.

Sure looks that way.

I think Mike was just as bad as the others. Just lived off BK's remnants. We were just as poorly coached from game to game and he didn't recruit Harangody, which is an all-time blunder. 

Woodson's winning percentage at Indiana is better than MD's so it would be kinda crazy to make that "isn't really close argument." .593 vs .623 confirms that. 

Yeah but you are leaving out the payroll that I mentioned.  I think Davis's recruiting would have been better with several million to throw around.  He was in on guys that we lost to the shoe schools back then.
