go iu bb Posted February 6 Posted February 6 16 minutes ago, Hoosierfanyuh said: Wouldn’t matter if we already have someone else lined up. It's surprising how many think that IU will have the next coach lined up when it's announced that Woodson will not be the coach next year. I very much doubt that they will. If it's not Stevens, everyone else will be busy coaching with games left in the season. Don't they need permission from the schools to interview the coach? They might have something tentative in place, but I don't see them doing formal negotiations and job offer while Woodson is still publicly the coach. Can you imagine if that leaked? It would look terrible both for IU and the guy agreeing to a job while coaching in-season at another school. We've been through plenty of coaching changes and have seen at plenty of other schools to know how it goes. They're not going to say, "Woodson is retiring at the end of the year at which point X will take over as IU's Head Coach of the future." Even speculation about the IU job being open at the end of the year will likely result in questions for several coaches, especially May. hper50, kottke and moyemayhem 3
HinnyHoosier Posted February 6 Posted February 6 "Why is Woodson still coaching?" "How does Woodson still have a job?" Those are the types of questions Dolson & Co have been wanting the media to fixate on while they find the next guy. For the sake of minimizing distractions and getting the deal done, he's protecting himself and the successor by not protecting Woodson.

I’m guessing he wanted to get past trade deadline. by guessing - I obviously mean hoping and praying.

To be fair, I don't think they would announce it that way even if they had a deal done unless it were to be a hire from within.
