They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[HinnyHoosier 5,282]

Woodson finishing out the season with a confirmed resignation/retirement is the least messy way for this to conclude. It's traditional, less volatile, and less speculative. Easily overshadowed in a few weeks. The last thing this administration needs is extra negative attention while trying to close the deal that's being done.

WTF? That’s your takeaway?

Don’t fall for Rabby’s word salad. No chance Woody coaches Saturday. I’ll replace Cig’s face in my profile picture with the face of someone’s choosing if he does. Do your worst. 

Come on, Michael Dean Woodson. 

We're rooting you on, now! LOL

How does it help? What does it accomplish letting him finish. The fan base is done with him. 

I dont think it matters one bit either way.  Just asking how it gives you "  zero faith I have for IU never getting out of their own way for basketball. "

I absolutely don't like him as a coach or a person, but I gain no pleasure by him being fired early.  As long as he is assuredly gone, let him suffer the slings and arrows from the fans to finish the season in Assembly Hall, if that is his choice

Beard is our man. Came within a review of a Natty coaching Texas Tech; something his hero and ours never did there. He’s flawed and made mistakes but keeps winning. Give him a bag and a morals clause and start kicking some @$$.

If we end up with him I’m all in. I also understand the criticism.

Is this good? Or close to an Air Force base?

I love the thought of Stevens but he’s been out of coaching for a while now. Never dealt with NIL or the changing recruiting landscape. I really don’t think he’s as close to a certainty as people think. It’s risky. Beard and pearl are the most sure things there are. Outside of that we have calculated gambles. Let’s hope we get it right. 

He's used to managing multi-year contracts complete with options, clauses, and bonuses in a world where you can barter the players attached to the numbers as human capital. I don't think NIL scares him.

Winning cures all ills unless it’s Sampson and burner phones.

Seriously, I want the man gone right now.  If he finishes the season, to me, means the Admin is giving up on the season.
