Until the next coaching search all. It was a fun one. ✌️

I think we should all be real on that one. There is no long leash at IU. It certainly won’t start now with a coach that won’t have the level of backing the last 4 had when they started.

Really? He had 3 years at SFA where his lowest win total in a year was 28 wins. He was phenomenal before he got to Illinois. One year at Ok St. with 20 wins. I am not sure that’s the best example to prop up DeVries.

Dude we have won 23+ games 7 times in 32 years. I am sorry, but Brad Stevens doesn’t instantly have me saying things like this at IU.

Since the turn of the century, IU as a team has won 23+ games SIX times. Don’t do it to yourself man.

Depends on who you are the next 4 years will feel. Might be an apt description.

No, Purdue and Illinois haven’t won crap. But neither has IU at a level far worse than them. Spend the amount of time and money some of us have, then and only then can you tell us how to fan.

Same man. I think most agree that know me that I am the most blinders on supporter of most any coach we have had since Knight. I think this is the one after sitting through 4 years of Woody that made me realize the amount of money I spend on going to games annually is dumb and over.

Not for me. But, that saves me 12-15 in person games until they prove something.

I shouldn’t have eaten that Stromboli. Hopefully the worst mistake I make today.

Meh, Zach is too kind to be her.

Today feels very agent driven for how quiet it has been to this point.

“Breaking News: IU has hired Doug Gottlieb as Head Coach. He is bringing along with him Chris Beard as GM.”

That’s a lot of assumptions for how our fans have historically acted or in general of an open ended situation. They would not look at that Elite 8. They would ask what you did in those other 4 years because the Elite 8 is expected.

IU fans out here doing God’s work, while everyone in the great state of Massachusetts is making sure he is still alive.

Right! I swear to god all of these people are using my wife as a source with how confused they are. You would have thought she was sitting in the front seat with them explaining why the map on your phone is wrong.

Yes and no to me. Once you win here, you are expected to stay on that same trajectory. Or close to peak levels year after year. Most places if you made an elite 8 run every 5 years, you write your own check. That would get you fired here.

Hell yes!!! Everything I ever strived for in life. Our Meth is better than your Meth, West Virginia!!!!

That’s what KathywithaC says. But KathywithaK said KathywasaB and they get to duke it out to get our timelines right. I figure Dolson is like that fat girl being the bodyguard of the 7.5 at the bar. Sooner or later she will eat her snickers and get distracted. When that happens? We will overpay our next sacrificial lamb.

Maybe I will be the last man at the party, but the DD stuff still feels very agent driven.

Oh damn, I just had half of the board having flashbacks. This round of counciling is on me…
