Why don't you just stay there then....for your own peace of mind of course.

I only ask mods to allow fair play and honesty. I don't have feelings.

I don't need to be there. I will always root for whoever is coaching my team. 

The definitions of fair play and honesty, are not giving your opinion, then if someone disagrees with your statement, call for cover. 

BTW- your analogy of murdering someone is a little disturbing, and I know someone who would run to safety, if it came out of others mouths. WayneFleekHoosier stated apples to oranges, you gun to knife? SMDH

Hey all,

Let's get back to the thread topic - we're kinda on-topic but the warning lights are flashing. 

Much appreciated

Well if this true good old Woody might make some noise

Mods I no longer see any use for this thread . Shut it down !  I’m joking, I’m joking !

Lot of crickets in this one...

Is this a New Year’s resolution or what?

Technically he said he would like to do it. Not that he was going to do it. I’d like to get my six pack back but that ain’t going to happen

I think this has become the "undecided but maybe perhaps leaning towards not keeping Mike Woodson" thread.

I just returned from a wonderful Mass. Side note, my Priest looks identical to Pat Kelsey. I made my monthly confession and feel great. So in the spirit of the original intent of this post I'd like to say, Woody wants the same things we do and more so wants to be the person to make that happen. He does however lack the ability to make it happen and goes about his business in a way that is insulting to those of us raised on The Bob Knight show. We were taught every Sunday by a master in his craft what winning, or at least what the pursuit of winning looks like. 

Brothers and sisters, I hope in this holiday season you have peace in your hearts.

Kind of like saying, I would like to utilize the talent effectively.

I don't believe Woodson can do that. At this point in his career, he's too old and stubborn to do so. Either he doesn't know how to effectively and efficiently run smallball OR he probably can't run it consistently. When he's in trouble, he'd revert back to old basketball. I think when he was hired he said he'd put great emphasis on the perimeter game. In his 4th year, we still haven't seen that.

He'd gladly run a small ball scheme... as long as he can play outside-in and use two bigs while doing it... 

After 9+ years coaching in the NBA and 3+ years of (allegedly) coaching in college, he still has no clue what he's doing. He won't accept help or trust those put around him to help him succeed. He's pig-headed, egotistical, incapable of change....

but yeah, he's gonna just wake up tomorrow morning and decide to go "small ball".

If his lips are moving, he's either lying or he's making crap up as he goes...

I just didn’t want this thread to feel lonely.

Thanks for bumping this thread. Some very interesting takes within:

22 wins is absolute worst case scenario ie the “floor”. Would entail a devastating injury or two, Rice/Carlyle not being anywhere near as good as advertised, and/or team never gelling together. 22 wins and a 6/7 seed would be a major disappointment. There’s 8-10 other teams in the country whose “floor” is 22 wins. That’s how good next years team is going to be.

Imagine getting caught up where the absolute worst case scenario is still comfortably making the tournament and still being expected to advance? What is wrong with you people?

The University of Kentucky, the most storied college basketball program in the history of the sport, just ended up with their 5th or 6th candidate after publicly being turned down multiple times because of an irrational fan base who ran off the last coach. If you think Indiana is somehow going to land a cream of the crop coach after running Woodson off in 3 years then there's zero reason to have this discussion.

He just finished second two years ago despite being down two starters for the majority of the conference slate, sweeping the champs in the process. This years roster is 10x more complete than that.

Cal left because of the irrational fan base who cut off his NIL supply making it impossible in this climate of college basketball. And because of that ended up with Mark Pope.

Has AH or Schreckbagger checked in since the B4A pant s***ting?

[coonhounds]

I so wish ah1971 worst case scenario was a thing!

AH posts in the football recruiting thread but hasn’t said a word about iubb since the Louisville game lmao.

I seen some posts in the fire mike woodson thread and couldn't bring myself to post this and argue or start a debate in that great thread. However woodson definitely did a decent job with tjd and ware imo. So saying tjd saved woodson may be true woodson needs some credit I think especially with ware. Jhs also did well under woodson for the most part. Woodson has had a few bright spots early on with special talents. Malik ballo and mcbako is not working out and I feel they are pretty special players with the proper coaching
