Wally Sczerbiak just called Woodson a great coach. He is clueless

Didn’t he play the NBA against Woodson?

First, you guys are hilarious. Reading the pages I missed on a long travel day is great.  I guess I missed the chance to drop the bomb that coaches were informed yesterday that Woody is being ret

First thing's first, congrats to the IU women on the 4-seed and hosting opportunity. Tough draw, but they call it madness for a reason. Secondly, love you guys and this community, but goodness you're

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.

By the way, Stuhoo is bent over and ready!  Lol

You misunderstood!

I am not rooting for a bad loss so that we can hear the chants.

But IF we are getting smashed I am perfectly happy with the fire MW chants.

Since we lost to NW Woodson went back to no media sessions the day before the game. Poor guy just needs everyone to cut him some slack.

Is there any word on the color of his shirt while making this decision?

We’re being told optics is important and the timing to be right. Sadly optics does matter.

however, he has obligations in his contract that I believe he is not fulfilling. That not only seems to be cause for termination but also without pay/buyout.

34,776. How many pages did Archie and CTC get? 

Miller had like 87. I don't remember what Crean's was but I don't think those two had this many pages combined.

One thing we haven’t really talked about is how interesting things get at the end of the season if UNC is also looking for a coach. They’re sort of in a similar situation to us. Feels like they’d have first pick over us in the blue blood pecking order. 

One of my employees is a UNC grad and seems to think the general consensus is the FF in year one/ACC title last season buys him one more season but the seat will be nuclear. Unless they completely implode, in which case all bets are off plus he was literally ACC coach of the year last season. If they canned him this season it would almost be a Tom Crean type situation with a smaller sample size and arguably more success. I don't think we have to worry about them being open at the same time.

Here's my prediction. 

If IU loses to Maryland tomorrow, Woodson will be gone mid-season.

If IU wins, he'll be fired at the end of the year.

Tomorrow's game seems like a pivotal one that'll determine whether he's gone now or later

Tough decisions.  Idk what to do.  Watch or not watch.  Root for us to win, or hope we look like we did against Illinois.  If the latter happens, it’s Black Monday I would think.

Does it really matter?  He is gone at the end of the season anyways.  Fire him now might give us some hope as fans to finish the season the right way.  Let’s just do the totally cool thing and Fire Mike Woodson now and let Tom Crean finish the season.

Yea.  Lose tomorrow and it could start a particularly nasty losing streak.  Win and the win/loss record continues to look good enough to keep going.

Feels like he rode fifth year guys Bacot and Love from the previous administration. Now that he’s working on his own the results are starting to show some cracks in his coaching abilities. The risks of hiring former players continues to rear its ugly head.

I think you are right here, but I have to look at it from our perspective. If Woody had ridden TJD to a FF and also had a SS with B1G 1st place finish, we would not even be conjecturing about him not getting a fifth year. Because of that (and what I hear from people down here) I think Hubie is safe for another season. I know several UNC folks that can see the writing on the wall that he probably is not going to work out, but they are probably hamstrung in a way we are not from a performance perspective. If we ran Woody off with Hubie's record, we would deserve the "true fan" treatment lol

Hubert also to his benefit spent a bunch of time as Roy's assistant beforehand. Its not like he waltzed into the job straight from the ESPN set.
