They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

My own speculation based on no facts:

I think it's more like, Buckner may be giving Dolson the impression that his big donor/BOT, etc. friends will be very displeased with him if Dolson disgraces THE Mike Woodson by removing him from the sidelines mid-season. 

Dolson goes to Woodson yesterday and says announce your retirement at end of season before Michigan game

Woody says this morning he won't be forced to retire, he quits. Dolson says fine and works out the interim plan. 

Then Woodson's camp leaks this, that he is expected to stay at end of season. Backing Dolson into the corner, if he cares about the "stakeholders" Buckner's potentially implying he can wield his influence with. 

I can see that playing out

This is some Machiavellian stuff and I am here for it.

I want him gone now so that nothing can happen the rest of the season that might save him. I think he wants this job and will point to anything to keep it. Just watch, 5 game winning streak just like last year and his camp is lobbying for year 5. Don't give him any chances. Fire his @$$ now and be done with it. Amicable departures are for losers.

There is no doubt Woodson is in denial. In his mind if he doesn’t sign the  retirement papers he can go on a winning streak and save his job. 
Yep

I'd be shocked if IU took a chance on Beard.

I don’t think they would either, but that’s the best coach they can get imo.

Where’s Kathy and that 1971 fella? 

Huh? Pretty sorry I acknowledged he was stepping down at the end of the season 2-3 weeks ago. Did we really learn anything today about his future that we didn’t already know lol?

No chance he’ll be there imo. I’ll be shocked if this ends with him sticking around for the rest of the year. Just need the dust to settle over the next 24 hours. 

There is just no way they can do that to him or the fans.  This was awkward in December.  It was bad in January.  Are they really going to trot him out there for a month to get booed?  Is that the lasting image recruits/transfers will see of IU?  On second blush, that is par for IU.

Do you think they'd still boo him if they know he's retiring at the end of the year? It's that bad in AH this season?

Still trying to figure out if a coach has ever been fired before seasons end yet.

 

 expect we won’t hear much from them for a while

Remember when you said he was going to be removed mid-season for poor performance because of prior precedent (which still to this date hasn’t happened)? 
 

Yeah, me too lol
