The University of Indiana has announced that Head Coach Mike Woodson will be stepping down at the end of the current season. Woodson has been with the Hoosiers since 2021, leading the team to the NCAA tournament in both of his first two seasons. However, this season has posed challenges, as the Hoosiers currently hold a 14-9 overall record and a 5-7 standing in the Big Ten Conference. They have struggled recently, losing six out of their last seven games. Throughout his tenure at Indiana, Woodson has compiled a coaching record of 77 wins and 49 losses.
As a player, Woodson was a member of the Indiana Hoosiers from 1976 to 1980, where he became the sixth all-time scorer in the program’s history, finishing his college career with 2,061 points. He was drafted 12th overall in the 1980 NBA Draft and played in the NBA from 1980 to 1991, averaging 14 points over nearly 800 games. After his playing career, Woodson served as an assistant coach before becoming the Head Coach of both the Atlanta Hawks and the New York Knicks.
