They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[Hornsby]

Tonight shows we're at the point where Dolson needs to save Mike from himself if Mike doesn't already understand what needs doing. 

This was never going to end good. Nba coaches fail in college
Especially ones that aren't good and don't work hard. Tjd saved him for two years but still underperformed. Nobody should be surprised.

I know there have been rumors about Dolson and how he was overruled and this is not his fault.

But no.  This disaster must fall on him and everybody who enabled it.  Fire everybody!

If Dolson was indeed overruled I disagree that he should be fired.

Look I know this isn’t the place for this but what else do you want Goode to say?

It’s a life lesson in attitude to decide to be resilient. They have to think they’re gonna cook eventually despite no signs for a positive future.

 

You can talk about getting back on track without bringing the fans into it.

Woodson needs to rack up the losses on his own record.

This may be the most compelling point for why Woodson will be convinced to retire mid-season, lol. 

Can't risk that .400 and change career winning pct dipping into the .300s.

If he leaves soon he will still be low .600s winning pct in college I think. 

His ego/vanity should not be underestimated IMO

Sure. I think that Goode does own it. He was directly asked about the fans. He can only say “yeah we’re a flaming turdpile” so many ways.

On the other hand CMW is skewered for saying “I gotta get them over the hump” “it’s on me” repeatedly. It’s just so hollow. 
 

Im NOT defending CMW. Not gonna happen. But Goode is still a child. Yes he’s paid. Yes he’s a senior. But they’re still young players. I can’t in good conscience expect the poor guy to come out and say damn I wish I had a real coach.

Really feels that way. I’d still like to think Woody couldn’t be so oblivious to reality that he doesn’t know that toxic doesn’t begin to describe how this will go, but he’s definitely said things that make it seem like he’s delusional before so who knows. 
 

Then again I watched us lose to Auburn by 28 in person last year and that wasn’t even the worst loss that season and we didn’t make a move lol

Dusty, Brad, Chris Beard??? Scott Drew???

I’m ready for Coach search SZN now.

Kenya

Calbert

those are the two realistic choices in order if you ask me. Both would be 100% place holders for the off-season coaching search and one should be in that position by next week if our administration has any sense.

This is beyond sad to watch and everyone, including Woody knows it.

I was about to say…what good does it do keeping Woodson any longer? Tonight proved that point. Tag Calbert with the interim tag

He just needed to say he understands the fans frustration and they are going to work hard to meet expectations. It's not complicated. Don't take a shot at the people who are paying to see a good product

True. Absolutely. But in his defense he was asked “what do you say to the fans”. Context matters a bit here. I dunno.

We lost Dusty when we brought Woody back....he has Michigan at #20 and climbing, they are scoring a lot of points!

I like Goode, I'm glad he came here and I think he was a good get! I feel bad for him....when the players and the fans start exchanging barbs, it's just another reason Woody should go.....now!

Goode cares, is the most vocal guy on the court and plays hard. He has to know he is stuck with a crappy coach and was interviewed after being booed (for good reason) in the stadium that he dreamed of playing.  Has to hurt.

What he said, after a game and atmosphere like tonight, doesn’t bother me at all. 
For years athletes/teams/coaches in many sports have made “its us against the world” types of comments when their backs were against the wall.

Both Goode and Leal clearly said that their performances have been embarrassing and that they absolutely understand why the fans are upset and booed them.

And he picked a terrible answer to the question lol. But it’s whatever. I really don’t care what a six-month Hoosier has to say after the team’s second straight 25 point L. Two more months and we can move past this disastrous tenure.

He basically has an IU buyout in his contract.  He negotiated it so he can watch our offseason unfold.

Wow! Couldn't catch tonights game as I was busy. However, I am excited to see the last 10 pages of comments regarding tonights L. It appears this team has failed, once again. Mike Woodson has failed, once again. The student section has turned on him and the program is DEAD!

Tonight was a huge win for the tank train. We are making our way through the Rust Belt and will be back in Bloomington at the end of March! 

BRAD *********** STEVENS!

[spe317]

Woulda been interesting if they came and said “oh we know they’re not booing us—just Mike Woodson”. A guy can dream, can’t he?

That isn't exactly what others are reporting they heard?

Thanks, I didn't know that.

[go iu bb]

It's not all doom and gloom. The IU football team just landed another transfer today. So we have that going for us.

Also, fire Woodson yesterday.
