His record is 63-40 not 60-43

Typo.  Thanks for catching although numbers in the post for the breakdown show 63-40

That is over half of his loses, not a good thing.  What that tells me is either his game preparation sucks or he just plain gets out coached.  I think it’s a combination of both!

Woody’s 63-40 record broken down 

18-32 against NET top 50 teams (8-17 against top 25)

17-7 against NET 51-99

28-1 against NET 100 + ( 21-0 NET 150+)

 

He sure beats up on the NET 100+ which could be why he stacked this years nonconference schedule with mostly 100+!  Mediocre Mike will be at his best!

Why doesn’t this thread show up in the section “Topics I’ve Participated In” but the  “Don’t Fire Mike Woodson” thread does?   Not cool and shows favoritism with the Mods!

Nothing to do with the mods and just a glitch in the system. Chill out.

I was just joking, lol!  A little defensive are we?  lol wink wink!

I, for one, am just proud of you all for  bringing your substantive posts to the Fire Mike Woodson thread.

 

Thanks to all

[Hornsby 3,014]

I'm confident we'll see more W's but not holding my breath for anything more than that.

Given the schedule yes. The preseason is cupcake city baby as vitale used to say

I don’t want to speak for everyone, but I think we need a really superior performance from our team the entire year to really jump start this program and to end this thread once in for all, which is what some on here want. 
 
I think no less than 2nd in Battle For Atlantis.  2nd in the B10 conference season,  2nd in the B10 tournament, top 2 seed in the NCAA tournament, and at least an elite 8 appearance.  If that happens, I bet this thread goes away, IMO
 

Ww have been waiting for an elite 8 since 2002 so it would certainly help.

How many of the 43 losses are by double digits?

Those 40 losses are by an average of 12 points. So under Woodson, the average lose is a blowout.

35-39 (47.3%) against NET top 100 teams uninspiring, especially considering that for 2 of those seasons he had an AA player who was also an IU great.

I think they'll be better this year than last (hard not to be) but will still underperform what they should be.

Yes, Jared Jefferies, Tom Coverdale, Jeff Newton, AJ Moye, Dane Fife, and some other sharp shooter named Kyle Hornsby!

That why some have gave him the name Mediocre Mike!

That’s an understatement, and could be worse if we lose our 1st game in Battle 4 Atlantis!

In all seriousness, is that even mediocre?

Gifted the junior and senior seasons of an AA all time great Hoosier, a great 5th and then 6th year senior compliment, and recruiting a lottery pick PG and they were just mediocre.The first all Woody roster was a disaster. Until proven otherwise Woodrow's hump is becoming mediocre. But hey he has only been at this coaching thing for 28 years, so give him time.

Don't think it changes the point much but 35-39 against NET top 100.

You're right. I must have swapped the 17 wins with the 7 loses in my mind. My bad. Still less than a 0.500 record against teams with a pulse.

But accuracy matters so thanks for pointing that out. I fixed it.

When broken down like this "FIRE MIKE WOODSON" he sucks LOL.

Being great against bad teams and pretty bad against anyone with a pulse clearly means keep him; the fact we've had worse just shows how abysmal IU has been at hiring coaches, which just makes Woodson the tallest midget.

Yes, it pretty much shows just how mediocre he really is!
