I heard Woodson had meetings yesterday about retiring at the end of the year and wasn't happy about it. It was forced. He's doing it now for "Medial" reasons but it's because he's pouting lol 

We all knew Woodson was going to have to be fired or forcibly "retired." 

Dude has no self awareness. I'm sure this was him at the meeting with Dolson:

Not sure letting him go immediately is a good thing. Interim guy could have a little success and IU will hire him.

No. His assistants are worse than he is

Trilly saying "forced retirement"

If it is a forced retirement can he sue IU for age discrimination

I wonder why Dolson wanted this done now...

You can’t officially offer a job to someone UNTIL there’s an opening. <wink>

Anyone have the skills to create an animated IU logo moving over a hump?

Sure - and Indiana University will countersue for incompetence.

 This truly is shaping up to be an absolutely fantastic day.  I can't remember when the board as a whole has been this upbeat.  There's no way we'll ever know the full details of how Dolson and President Whitten got this done but they did.  Going upstream against the president of the BOT who also has a number of high $$ donors in his pocket could just as easily been career enders especially for Scott.  I'm truly optimistic for what our basketball future holds.  GO HOOSIERS!

Does anyone else think that we've seen this movie before?

This is a two-parter... sounds like part one is done... but the real excitement is in the sequel...

Guarded optimism.

lol no.

It’s the most common HR practice there is: “retire or you get fired. Your choice.”

[IUrocker]

Yeah id definitely like to think Dolson wouldn’t want this done now if he didn’t have his guy, so that’s encouraging and obviously exciting.

Is it wrong to get a woody because Woody is being forced out? Asking for a friend.

Any news on how all this smoke started coming from Bloomington this AM?

I mean we have HH hosting a live Twitter Space.. we have Rabajohns offering discounts for Peegs right now.. 

3 can keep a secret if 2 are dead.  No way something like this can be kept totally under wraps especially when rumors have already been flying like flies at a picnic potato salad.

Woody’s attorney: my client has been discriminated against because of his age

Judge: lmao are you sure your client didn’t just suck butt at coaching?

So, will the judge and jury be made to "go to Mike Woodson" or would he be willing to go to them?
