Early in his tenure, Mike Woodson’s personality is driving Indiana’s culture

In between recruiting calls, film sessions and staff meetings, Mike Woodson cleared some space in his busy schedule to spend time on the golf course. In past years, it has been a way for him to connect with his former IU teammates. In fact, just last weekend, he hit the links.

“Well, when you’re watching Tiger Woods you’re basically watching me. You know, I’m below scratch player. Should have been on the PGA TOUR probably.”

Woodson pauses.

Then, his stoic expression turns into a smile. He leans back in his chair and laughs.

“No, I’m an awful player,” Woodson says.
