When Woodson was hired…I didn't love it when I first heard he would be the next IU coach.
I then found out it wasnt a Woodson hire, it was a Woodson Package…and I loved the hire.
That package included Thad Matta to make sure all of the differences in college and NBA were taken care of and made aware.
That package included Dane Fife, a coach-in-waiting of sorts, to ride out the transition of Woodson’s short term and be the next IU face to lead IU basketball. Stealing Fife back from Izzo and keeping him from MichSt seemed ideal.
The Package fell apart quickly…and Woodson has fallen on his face.
