They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[Hornsby]

That troll AH was on here a few weeks back clowning May for his late-game management. 
Meanwhile he’s got UM ranked and with the highest NET of any team in the B1G…the latter which I imagine Woody has never done for us. 
We messed up massively not grabbing May. 

Of course we did, but that's the iu way. Instead we are stuck with a king

Mike Woodson, the current Indiana University basketball coach, has recently stated that "there shouldn't be anything floating around about my job, I've done my job," essentially asserting that he believes he has fulfilled his responsibilities as coach despite recent struggles with the team; this is often summarized as "I did my job" when referring to his coaching performance.

Yea, I have come around to believing there is essentially no way this isn't his last season (all hail @Stuhoo for the steadfast leadership on that front lol), but anyone thinking he resigns is living in fantasyland. Mike Woodson is not resigning, and almost certainly is not getting fired midseason (and personally I see no real advantage to midseason). He will be gone after we lose in the BTT. Still would not be surprised if it is an ugly divorce, but hopefully he retires and we all move on.

Advantage to mid-season is a chance to salvage the season. Gives the world notice and us time to select the right coach. No chance of hurting any current players progress because no player is currently playing well

I’ve completely stopped watching IU basketball and won’t support the program for as long as Mike Woodson is the coach. He’s so pathetic and the fact we’ve had to put up with him for 4 years shows how unserious we are. I can’t wait for him to get fired. I am looking forward to the next hire and having someone new at the helm. Who would be our realistic candidates? Micah Shrewsberry, Mick Cronin, Chris Mack? Who else

It will be ugly unless they pay him an absolute fortune to leave. He is just doing his job in his mind. By the way the this team is so much better without MR crew sure is quiet today

This will be interesting. If Indiana is sputtering and Michigan is rolling coming into this game the chatter will be much louder not just about Woody being fired but about IU needing to specifically pursue May.

if that comes to fruition, I could see Woody playing hooky that day

Why? Mike Woodson is doing Mike Woodson’s job

[Hornsby]

Looking at the michigan schedule they could easily be 10- 1 when they come to play the king.

I still have it bookmarked from last time. AD’s are much better at hiding it these days.

May as well, we've already seen him get ejected while getting curb stomped by Nebraska so he could get out of dodge.

Not like this team would be hurt much without him "coaching".

So you’re saying he might have a case of the Mike Davis Flu?

Also gives a chance to pull an Ohio. This season does not need salvaging, it needs surviving. While I agree on the fundamental picture it paints about getting serious about BBall again, I just do not think the upside outweighs the downside. If Calbert took over and won a decent clip and changed how we look and got us into to the tournament there would be a large contingent of people that would want him to get the full time job-- Let me preface with I would take a chance on Cal over Woody for the record, but what IU needs is for Dolson to be able to conduct a full coaching search without a bunch of noise about the interim guy. Cal winning a few games and getting the HC job because of it would be classic IU behavior, and I do not wanna risk it.

It won’t do any good. Dolson knows we track that and will be slick about the flights

Yea you can pay to have your tail number hidden on flightaware and flightradar or just fly VFR until out of airspace and pick of IFR later. It is still fun watch for KBOS or KBED as a destination from Btown though lol

Then how are we suppose to have fun then. 

[Banksyrules]

I wonder if Dolson has already taken flights.  I mean it’s pretty obvious at this point that Woodson is gone.

I listened to Assembly Call while going on a long walk today. As a public service, for those of you that don’t have the time to listen to the 1+ hour podcast, I will provide a detailed summary:

-embarrassing performance and number of blowouts

-no fight and poor effort

-out coached 

-change is needed

-we suck

And we’ve been saying all of these things right here for the last 3+ years (Shreck, steuben, AH and NGW/Tyme excluded). The Assembly Call ain’t wrong.

This list sucks. I hope we can do better than this.

Pearle and May are both better options in my opinion and both would listen to a pitch from IU

[Hoosierfanyuh]

My favorite part is watching tyme and SDB trying to justify a 20+ point loss every time it’s happens hahaha

[JSHoosier]

IUWBB, with a good coach, rolls into Iowa and gets a win.

IUBB, with Woodson who isn't, quits then rolls over and craps themselves.

In his mind he is 13-4 and just doing his job. Nothing is certain when you have friends in very high places
