They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

Knight had anger issues. He wasn’t an alcoholic women beater. In my experience, yes the stress of the job probably exacerbated Knights issues, but he had enough runway to make it 25yrs before he did something leading up to his dismissal. 
 

Not only is alcoholic woman beater a bigger issue it is probably more likely to be triggered by elevated stressors…which again we have proof of with Beard. He last 1.5 yrs at his dream job before he flipped out. He’s a backwoods small timer coach. He can coach his balls off, but not in prime time.  
 

Even Kentucky knew better than to put him back in that position. 

Ole Miss 98, Kentucky 84.

If your girlfriend punched you during an argument would you beat the piss out of her in retaliation? 

Guessing you're single? And not by choice? 

God bless. You just can't have a convo without being personal can you? Lol 

Embarrassing.

I would have about as much interest as I do now with Woody or Archie or the end of Davis. Just be watching a walking disaster from afar waiting for the inevitable.

Knight was ultimately fired for that. Just like Beard. 
 

And after all of that nobody would hire Knight…except for programs like Texas Tech. 
 

You make the perfect argument against Beard, quite frankly. If Knight couldn’t get rehired at a major program why should the much less successful Beard?

I assume you remember then that many did not want him fired after that happened, because he won a lot. Knight was old when Texas Tech hired him, that's why he never went anywhere else.

Serious question for the holier than thou crowd. If beard is hired will you quit watching and supporting IU out of principle? I would think morally you would have too if what you say holds any water.

It would make it very hard, harder than you supporting this current team and coach. I know my wife would be out 100%.

I promise you that every one that is around the program knows that Beard wants the job. He has done everything possible to let IU know he is interested, other than holding up a hire me sign on the sideline

I’m in the camp of giving second chances. If not Stevens, I want Beard. It’s 1A and 1B and they’re pretty dang close. He can flat out coach and he is more Knight than any.

She snatched his glasses off of his head. He either in a drunken and/or anger rage retaliated by beating her to a pulp to the extent the police were called. There were clear and visible signs of a physical assault...so much that Beard was arrested and slapped with multiple felony charges. He was immediately suspended and then later fired. She recanted her story after the fact stating Beard acted in self-defense and the charges were ultimately dropped.  

Outside of your life being in immediate danger, there is absolutely zero reason to EVER lay your hands on another women. Zero, none, zilch. I don't care that charges were dropped. His reaction was absolutely uncalled for and should never be justified.

Beating her to a pulp. Lol ..  it was wrong, it was a mistake, idk more of the details... beating her to a pulp didn't happen.

The way I see it the moral superiority crowd can have any opinion it wants. But if they are really as superior as they talk they would have to quit watching and supporting iu if beard is hired. They can't have it both ways

I'm checking out for a while. This place is not well today. DM's are open, I'll check them later. 

The way people are acting is probably the reason Beard might not be a good idea. The next coach is supposed to bring us together not divide us further. 

Really strange hill to die on defending Beard in the name of wins.

You defending Beard's actions says a lot more about you than it does me. 

Yeah, embarrassing.

See your reading comprehension is so low you think that's what is happening lol

Yea, if we hire him it's a shitstorm of media mentioning the DV allegations and the university and fans being divided over it.  Just doesn't work for IU.
