Ex-Hoosier Woodson
signs with Knicks
NEW YORK (AP) - Mike Woodson, who started during four seasons of
college ball under Bobby Knight at Indiana, signed a multiyear contract with the
New York Knicks Wednesday as the club's top pick in the National Basketball
Association draft.
Woodson, a 6-foot-5, 200-pounder, reportedly will receive $125,000 a year for
three years, although Knicks' officials refused to reveal terms of the contract.
Woodson averaged 19.8 points per game in his college career and earned the
respect of Knight, who is known asa tough taskmaster.
"Michael is a great offensive player, one of the best I've ever seen," said
Knight. "He has worked tremendously hard to be a complete ballplayer and has
improved himself every year."
Woodson, who led the 1979 U.S. gold-medal winning team at the Pan Am
Games with 18.3 points per game, says he's completely recovered from a herniated
disc in his back that limited his play to 14 games last season.
"My back is fine," said the 22-year-old Woodson. "I haven't seen the back
surgeon for two months. I took a full exam here two days agoand everything was
OK."
The Knicks will use Woodson as either a small forward or big guard,'and he
says either position is fine with him. "At Indiana, I played defensive guard and of-
fensive forward, so I'm confortable at either position," Woodson said.
