Indiana coach Mike Woodson is unlikely to be coach of the Hoosiers past this season, according to multiple reports on Thursday.

Talks have reportedly begun about a parting of ways in the wake of Indiana’s four-game losing streak.

Woodson, 66, reportedly is willing to depart after the season but details of the exit are still being worked out.

Woodson would be due $8.4 million if he is terminated without cause following this season, the Indianapolis Star reported.

Woodson owns a 77-49 record in three-plus seasons with Indiana. He guided the Hoosiers to the NCAA Tournament in each of his first two seasons and won a game in both visits.

The Hoosiers started well this season and were 13-3 overall and 4-1 in Big Ten play after an 82-69 home win over Southern California on Jan. 8.

Indiana is 1-6 since during a stretch that includes Tuesday’s 76-64 road loss to then-No. 21 Wisconsin. The lone victory was a 77-76 overtime victory over host Ohio State on Jan. 17.

Woodson played for Bobby Knight at Indiana from 1976-80 and ranks sixth on the school’s career points list with 2,061. He averaged 19.8 points and 5.6 rebounds in 104 games.
