They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[steubenhoosier]

Regardless of what guys bring to the table or contribute on the floor, the anger at Woodson doesn’t need to be redirected to the players.

Imagine your own work place. Are you going to be better off or worse for publicity criticizing the CEO/owner/boss or whatever.

Appreciate the frustration over the situation. Don’t think taking it out on the players is the solution though

I’m sure this is pure copium, but…

If Woodson was really secure in the knowledge that he was coming back, would he feel the need to be so defensive and combative?

 

Yeah I think it’s how he rolls. Think back to the “not getting Kopp 3’s” quote. It’s how his brain is wired. Him vs the world.

I’ve seen some arrogant coaches before, but Woodson is up there with the best of them. Calling out the fans is insane.

What’s the over/under on 20 wins next season

What about the game Woodson said he was awful. Was he great that game. Don’t be a fanboy. My wife is that.

Not a fanboy at all. Whatever that is.

Don’t think it’s the players who need to feel the fan’s displeasure.

Sorry I didn't realize this message board was my workplace. 

I'll take my pink slip any day now boss. Talk to my union rep.

Kind of what I was thinking. Weird to take a dump on the fans like this and expect them to show up and support you next year.

Me seeing how we're all processing our emotions about this season / next season

Your old buddy Charles!  Lol

That is the insanity of the administration at its finest!

[coonhounds]

Imo only! You know your coach is weak when he calls out true fans! Every winner knows you need to win for the fans to unite around you and your team. If you win the vast majority of your fans will support and shower you with praises. The old iu that I grew up on wouldn't except failure. Knight wouldn't cry about fake fans. Woodson is a baby imo. He comes in preaching of returning us to greatness. Crean said he needed fans support but I don't recall Woodson ever saying that. Win just fing win I guess and you won't hear much blowback! Until then back off acting like you're a bad @$$

With 2 players?

Makes zero sense.

 I am not defending Woodson.

The players don’t deserve the criticism.

I haven’t seen the non conference schedule, I assume Woodson will schedule cupcakes to insure the 20 wins happens. 
 

“You can’t fire me, we won 20 games”

So now we’re attacking fans?

My friend; I have a different take:

If this team, which did not quit (ahem, Michigan) when they were 6-10 two weeks ago, wasn’t really salty right now?

I’d question whether they had any spine or cojones. Leal and Gallo are true Hoosiers and they can let loose and be fine by me.

I don't even disagree with you. Just amazing how you still don't get it. 

Nobody hired you to police this board bruh

Players always deserve criticism.

You mean the same players who just took big ole dumps on the fans? They’ve had a very mediocre season. Criticizing coaching is perfectly fine, and so is criticizing player performance.

I’d say we will get 75% of what we get this year

That will help with SOS. Other than that, Woodson will want to schedule the Alabama States, the Eastern Kentucky’s, the Eastern Illinois. 
 

20 wins is indeed a magical number. But not so magical when it’s against a terrible non conference and a mediocre league. Big ten becomes more average next season with the 4 West Coast teams.
