I like stories like that since it kills the narrative some push that no one outside of IU knows what's going on so won't understand if Woodson is fired. Firing Woodson now or at the end of the season isn't bad optics. Keeping him another year would be.

That’s what’s funny to me. There are some IU fans who think the outside world thinks we are too impatient with coaches. Not my non-IU friends. They have wondered why IU has put up with this crap. I’m live in Georgia. Zero chance UGA would tolerate anything close to this.

Understandable, from my perspective, I don't want to root for a win nor a win streak. College basketball is simple, you lose and get fired. You win, you'll stick around.

We all want him gone, therefor, we must lose. 

Exactly what I  am thinking the more they lose the more they have to say goodbye at the end of this very long season .I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt year 1&2  ,last year should have been it but here we are with the run it back and "true fan" .I watched B4A  and endured game 1 and turned off game 2 and have  given  up .So now I feel they must lose as many games as they can to make sure that he does not come back ,and goes gently off into the sunset .

Suppose there was a poster who defended Woodson until the middle of this season. Imagine if this post spent the summer banging his chest over the portal "win" and telling us how great Woodson is.

Now suppose this poster was telling everyone that no coaches anyone on this board is talking about would come to IU. If they did, they wouldn't do well. The best IU could do was Pitino Jr who would do a great job here.

I don't know about everyone else, but I wouldn't really place too much confidence in that poster's ability to evaluate coaching prowess. And pretty much no one on this board has any real idea which coaches would or wouldn't agree to coach at IU.

I think it's Woody as much as he post's here. A working man couldn't hold down a job unless his boss was a very good friend.

Wearing my old @$$ out listening to the fool.

UK, UL, and UNC have all fired coaches after 2-3 years. If there were negative takes on those firings, they were few and far between. Hell, Davis at UNC is in year 4 and has a much better record than Woodson but his seat is still hot.

Woody hasn’t beaten a team that was a 4 seed or better in the NCAA tourney since Feb 25 of 2023 

Probably the last time they beat a ranked team as well.  Although while Wisconsin wasn’t ranked at the time IU beat them last year they still was a 5 seeded team in the tourney last year but was fading fast.   IU fans have had a rough couple years.  Promised to be competing for B1G titles and championships but yet coming up on a 2 year cycle where the teams hasn’t beaten a top 4 seeded quality team

What’s he cooking today?  Please don’t say Chicago Deep Dish pizza, that picture made me full just looking at it!
I need to ask ant wright. He is the king of Woodson cooking.

I want this to be clear: I think we have a shot at Brad, but I would still be surprised if he is the coach. I'm not getting my hopes up this time, but I like our chances; I just can't quite get there in my head yet. 

lol!!!!

If UK gave a coach like Woodson year 4 those fans would've burned the whole campus to the ground.
