They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

It’s the process that began when Woodson sought a commitment for next year from Dolson from Woodson and others, did not get it, persisted, still didn’t get it, and then decided to move forward by announcing he’d leave at the end of the season. If you believe IU moved on him, you’d be 100% incorrect. And he was never being pushed out before the Maryland game, as was falsely rumored.

So what are you saying?  That Dolson didn't tell him, directly or indirectly, that he would likely be let go at the end of the season, so Woodson just quit? Why would he quit?  He was under contract for next year.

Woodson made it, though a series of his actions. IU didn’t initiate it. They very likely would’ve at the end of the season, but they didn’t a few weeks ago. That was all MW.

Yep the king certainly left on his own. Guys with 6 million dollar rosters and 5-8 records never get fired. That king fully expected another year after his stellar coaching job.

Is there a more overworked word on btb?

P is for Process - KathywithaC's favorite word

R is for regurgitate - She regurgitates it frequently

O is for outlandish - Many of the coaching theories posted on btb 

C is for crap - Mike Woodson's IU coaching 

E is for ego - Mike Woodson's is humongous

S is for Scott D. - Don't let us down Scotty 

S is for Sisley - Through it all he's sticking with IU

Welcome to BTB, post more and lurk less!  Just don’t engage in those pointless arguments that we have no control over!  

Thanks for the welcome!  I like good discussions but like you said we have no control over who is selected so arguing for 20 pages about one’s favorite candidate is pointless. I respect everyone’s POV and for the most part can see the pros to most candidates. I just want someone that can coach, stabilize the program, and get us back to national relevance again by challenging for B1G titles and in the tournament yearly. I’m tired of feeling apathetic about IU basketball.

He messed it up by being really really bad as a coach.

 A couple questions,

1.  Was Woodson not aware of our procedure that we don’t evaluate and make decisions on coaches during the season?

2.  Why didn’t Woodson just quit effective immediately?

I think you feel the same way we all do.

There are about 8.4 million reasons...

I wonder if that really would have cost him anything.  He doesn’t seem to be worried about quitting his media obligations, and that’s a bigger chunk of his salary.

Probably not. He's an @$$, but he's also very protected... Buckner will make sure the Entitled One gets his payola.

Just the level of anger I have with Woodson/ Buckner/ administration ……ugggggggghhhhhh  makes me want to join my local fight club again.
