They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

[cleeter]

You can either play golf and recruit the portal OR play golf and compete in the NIT - can't do both tho

You can coach Indiana University, not coach and not recruit, get a raise and keep your job. If you don’t believe me. Just watch.

Our program needs to be rebuilt and Mike Woodson has shown that he's not the guy to rebuild it.  No high school recruits, no team identity, no culture, archaic offense, and slow to make adjustments.  No reason to give Woodson another year.

But he’s getting it. So time to face it.

Hopefully it’s because we won’t have a coach.

Mike Woodson saying that he is going to reject an NIT bid is like me saying that I am going to reject a date with Margot Robbie. Neither of us was going to get that invite to begin with.

But the Scott's think he can buy a team of all stars.

Pretty sure we would get one. It’s in the tournament’s best interest for IU to play.

Yeah, the three NIT bracketology sites I saw had IU in the NIT prior to the BTT.  And considering the number of teams that will reject the NIT this year as they have to play the portal game, there really wasn't Indiana wouldn't have been invited.  IU and Mississippi so far have said they will reject bids....there are going to be others.

He looked like he wanted to treat the reporter like a Taco Bell drive thru worker for asking such a dumb question 

Well he had Mgbako in the presser with him. Mack has some Taco Bell experience.

Promise to get everyone the update I committed to last weekend in the next day or two. Wanted to let things shake out from the meeting Tuesday and see how the tourney games went. 

See how the tourney games went.  Hmmm…..

Then don't. Retire. Problem solved. Easy.

Jesus.....this has to make all decision makers face palm. Right? Or are all of us the crazy one's? I don't even know anymore.

Warm the charter plane up first thing in the morning. Get the boys back to Bloomington. The staff has 24 hours to clean out their offices! 

[Jwalk83]

Get this baby cranked up again! Wanker ball has returned. Glad the coach walked out on the team in the last game.

So when should we expect to officially know if Woodson will be the coach for another year or not? Monday? Tuesday?

If they do keep him, I don't think an unnamed source "leaking" that he'll be back is sufficient. The AD will need to at very least release a statement of support and confidence in Woodson. Too much noise around firing him to try to ignore it.

Guys, i love this board and all yall that come along with it. But Woody is back. Face the music.

AD’s don’t have to release a statement saying “we are keeping said coach who is still under contract.” It’s been said he’s staying, he staying. Stop getting hopes up (like me) and putting yourself in this macaron.

Certainly feels that way. Lame duck coach will only stall any rebuild while other programs advance. First time in a while I will not be looking forward to basketball season.

He’s back unless his wife and kids can convince him to step down this weekend.
