I want them to ask him what doing his job means? As he said he was coming back to win championships. So he hasn’t been doing his job if that’s the actual goal. 

A follow up Q is what real journalist would do. In my estimation they will bow out because woody got aggressive with them. Said it earlier so I’ll say it again, hate when DD is right, but IU blogger boys spines are MIA

As someone who owns 3 businesses built from the ground up, now with over 40 employees - I fully EXPECT my employees to tell me when I'm doing a **** job or making **** decisions. I welcome it. You can't succeed in this life if you can't handle criticism. In fact, we have meetings on Monday and Friday to do this very thing - criticize and brainstorm how the week went and go over the **** decisions I made (I make a lot of them). 

If I ever acted like Mike Woodson and blamed our customers (the way he blames fans), I'd expect to be put out of business within 24 hours. You don't attack those that feed you. You can handle criticism by either:

1) listening and realizing you could be better and adapt

2 ) getting defensive and assigning blame elsewhere

Woodson chooses #2 every single opportunity he gets including tonight during his speech.

Woodson is a punk and Anthony Leal is right behind him. I fully appreciate the players defending their coach (everyone who ever played for him, including Carmelo Anthony, loves Woody) but what has he actually won as a coach? NOTHING. To come after the fans - the man is destroying his legacy. He's now put himself in a position where it's win or **** off and blame someone else for sucking at your job. What a loser. This is why Woody will, IMO, never succeed in a massive way as a coach. 

You sound like a person I would like to work for, because you have self awareness. Self awareness is a heck of a trait.

I know some blogger boys are on here lurking right now and I just pissed you off.. Good, take it out on Woodson - prove me wrong

I hate when people back down if someone shows aggression. Woodson is 65 years old, he isn’t going to physically harm someone over a question. So ask the tough questions. And if he does sue his @$$ and we get a new coach. Everyone wins. lol

I’m a hater of current HC not being fired but I also disagree that is the ceiling. Look at Cal at UK, terrible coach but can buy talent and let the boys go. It works out a few times every decade for him. So if Woody can retain Gallo Taco Reneau and add a future pro guard and Onyenso from UK the pure talent + experience returning can run us to a S16 E8 if lucky. 2c

I'd take Cal's coaching over Woodson's.

Don’t call them blogger boys on Peegs, it’ll get you a “vacation” as they call it there.

Our Ceiling with Mike Woodson is last years round of 32. Maybe a sweet 16 if he stays several years. We will never beat that with him as our coach. That is not good enough. 

 sincerely,

true fan

Sweet 16 in the NIT, right? That's what you mean?

Debatable to me. Cal is Crean w 10x recruiting prowess in my head. IU has a few sets that are tough to start games and BLOB

I don’t know, Tonsoni was almost in tears over the true fan comment. I think that stung deeper especially for the older crowd that’s actually seen elite basketball. Those of us in the 30-40 crowd  are used to terrible basketball and being blamed for it, so to me it’s just old man yelling at clouds. I did have at least one family member over 60 text me he was furious— and he’s been pro-woody since day one. It’s anecdotal so I didn’t share it, but when I finally saw Tonsoni it made more sense.

Problem is Woodson doesn't have the cred Cal does.  It's going to be very difficult for him.

Once again my problem is with the below
 

Dude is an ******* and **** like this is uncalled for. But par for the course for an ******* like DD. There is a reason he was fired from his last job.....

He has been fired from multiple places. ESPN fired him and so did 1070 The Fan.

I made a similar offer the other day then @hoopsta007 undercut my price saying he'd take half.

You're welcome! Again as long as the craziness of this thread stays here we are all good. And BTB members have done a great job (for the most part) of not letting it bleed in to other threads. 

 

[realTomCrean]

All these X accounts playing gotcha because of Woodson speech and a win streak vs the Mid 10. They don’t even believe themselves, but PR must be good for Woody! Give me a break Hoosier Commish

And it’s why some people like me only use and read this one. I’m pretty sure I had one removed and I am guessing it was something I said kinda mean about Woody and I think was probably misunderstood it happens. That said, the moderation doesn’t bother me at all it’s what keeps this from becoming peegs and isn’t overdone to quiet all dissenting voices like others I won’t name and don’t read. You guys are alright.

Thanks for sticking with us! You guys make this forum what it is. A lot of opinions around here and this is the place to share them.
