They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[Pagoda]

Freddie is playing in Japan right now.  Could he be connected over there and tweeting?  Just thinking out loud.  I don’t know.

Whoever it is, they’re tweeting right now. It’s 3:30 a.m. in Japan. Doesn’t necessarily eliminate him, but that would be serious dedication to hating on the fanbase.

Brian Evans? Tyme= Tom Geyer

[Muskie plays the four]

Wasn't Freddie the one pushing Miro Little ?

No ScottDolsonBurner loves Woodson, Evans can't stand him. 

If Tyme ever played Tom Geyer would be a good choice

Since Woodson is toast, let's start the real chat! What kinda toast is he? Sourdough? Burnt?

Realistic shortlist:

1) Isiah Thomas

2) Randy Wittman

3) Keith Smart

And, of course, you give Steve Alford a call…

I have no idea why Tom Van Arsdale isn’t being brought up. Hoosier legend that should be slotted, in my opinion,  between Thomas and Wittman.

Sorry, there's just no shot I believe this SDB is a former player, the more I read them tweet.

Dang that is some good work. I never pictured Freddie to be a water carrier for the program. I can kind of see it

Crean let him play in a game where he couldn't even remember to put his jersey on, so it would make sense why he'd blame the fans for getting Crean fired.

If we lose tonight, that’s 13-5 and 4-3 in conference.  Doesn’t look like a record that gets someone fired midseason.

I don’t really care.  This season was likely a failure the minute we kept Woody.  It’s unlikely anyone on our staff could materially improve this team.

W: SIUE, EIU, South Carolina, UNCG, Providence, Sam Houston, Miami (Ohio), Minnesota, Chattanooga, Winthrop, Rutgers, Penn St, USC. 1 Neutral site win, 1 away win. 

Against P5 record: 6-4

4 Losses (by points): 28, 16, 17, 25

Winless against probable tournament teams

While at face value the record says not bad, the actual results point to the obvious - why is this guy still employed? Incompetent against real opponents.

Getting credit for the win at Palestra being on the road was the friendliest gift ever given by the overlords at NET Rankings Incorporated

An X account that's a former player carrying water for the administration, but not for the best interest of IU.. Hmm Race Thompson still hanging around? 

Edit: I hate breaking character on here

[monskisprodigy]

So what I can gather from Tyme and SDB is...it's the fans fault for having too high of expectations for the program. It's not all on the coach, and there are problems with the program that the coach can't fix...even a coach that was given $6 million to build a roster, that those same burners were bragging about in the off season...now that it's not working, those deep rooted problems are again the issue. 

To fix it, you have to burn it down to the ground, and then have zero expectations for the new coach or team in order for that coach to be able to be successful? Fan expectations are killing our coaches and keeping top talent from wanting to play here. 

Am I getting that right?

[realTomCrean]

Saw some idiot on X saying it's a "race" issue for fans wanting Woody gone. Wrong! It's a winning issue, effort issue, and result issue. Tom Crean won 2 B1G championships in 4 years and got fired! If Woodson and his paid social media advocates want him to retain his job, then win something against someone worth note. What's his record vs Top 25 teams as IU HC? What's his record v Top 25 teams ATS? Nothing personal, dude just doesn't have the drive to be a successful college coach

Fair. I get it.   That would be my vote, but I’m just a keyboard warrior just sitting in a cubicle. 

Are you using cover sheets on the TPS reports? And by the way mmmm can you come in Sunday?

You forgot, missed free throws are the fans fault as well.

Sam Story posted the Ken Pom projections for the next 8 games and Tyme and SDB are losing it on Twitter. In the grand scheme of things I truly believe those two hate IU basketball. You would not act that way if you really loved the university. Tyme says he played, the only team that dude played on was the YMCA team. I would almost guarantee he was picked last too. 

He wasn’t even picked he was the towel boy.
