Checking in here this evening to remind you all that Mike Woodson is not qualified to run the men’s basketball program at Indiana. His dismissal is once again, much encouraged! 

FIRE MIKE WOODSON!

I hope the Purdue students eat Woodson up Friday night.

Wouldn't it be crazy if everyone with info was right? Hear me out in this scenario:
- SD and MW have a meeting after the Illinois game drama and SD asks MW if there is any scenario where he walks away before the end of the season.
- MW replies with a response that includes potentially health issues and/or push back from fans and media gets to be too much.
- SD tells MW that he needs to prepare for that potential midseason departure so he will need to have meetings with the assistant coaches to figure out who would be the interim.
- No timetable is given and firing MW never is discussed, but a plan is put in place if he walks away.
- No one has said that they have heard that he will be fired mid-season, only that a plan is in place if it needs to be executed.

To me, this outlines it to where everyone giving sourced information is telling the truth....can we all just get along now?

Yes, because if you aren’t caught then you don’t have a problem that no one else knows, lol

We’ve been completely unserious from the moment Mike Woodson was hired to coach basketball. Nothing about the “process” has anything to do with winning basketball games. It’s about appeasing two program legends. Full stop. No one is saying he has to be fired right now, simply make the retirement announcement and let him finish the year. He probably gets cheered on senior night. Instead, we are supposed to believe this administration is fine with the optics of angry or empty Assembly Hall for the rest of the season? Don’t hire unqualified program legends in the first place. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. 

I had a horrible thought at work today.  In an effort to keep his job, Woodson announces he is only coaching two more years and hiring Pat Knight as an assistant and the head coach in waiting.

I fear this part may have actually happened.....what if Woodson announces that he is retiring from coaching and next year is his last season, would they still fire him?

They think they are, but internally they are worse than many programs.  Being holier than thou won’t get them any other

And the process is very slow and messy and many people involved don’t know jack about basketball 

And I don’t think they care!

[Hornsby]

All the process does is eliminate good coaches because they got a speeding ticket once. That's how we end up with guys like woodson.

At least I tried to do something besides bitching on a message board about firing Woodson 

Congrats on giving Dolson’s secretary more work.

He didn't earn year 4... on what planet would he get a year 5?

I agree, I'm just saying that it wouldn't surprise me if he tried something like this, thinking that they might be hesitant to say, "no, you are retiring now because you're fired!" It might be the best move he has left if he wants another year?

If you found out you were about to get let go at work then let it be known that you were going to quit in a year do you think they'd still let you go as planned?
