  1. You won't.....
  2. But is your liver?
  3. I'm actually anticipating this.
  4. Agreed! The day Billy D becomes IU coach is the same day that I stop worrying about who we are recruiting, who's on our staff, etc. I will have complete faith in him making us elite, in a short amount of time.
  5. This is one of the things I've heard he does. He asks the coaches to add sets and try to adjust their style of play to get the players acclimated to his system.
  6. I've also heard that Crean made some pretty ridiculous requests to schools and coaches.
  7. Prayers for you and your wife. Hopefully you get some good news partner.
  8. I noticed that too.
  9. Stevens won't be coaching at any college for a long time. He has the best job in basketball currently.
  10. Quagmire and myself believe Archie Miller has the coolest win percentage.
  11. I cry myself to sleep at night over losing Guy. He's special and going to be a legend at Virginia. Did anyone watch him play both ends last night? From what I watched, it looked like he was the best player on the court. Really gifted scorer and passer but I didn't know he could that level of defense. Did anyone catch his post game interview? They asked him specifically about his defense and he said "Coach Bennett has us playing defense at least 75% of practice." That may not be an exact quote but nonetheless... I thought this board would have been blowing up over that comment.
  12. It's 100% accurate. Kyrie was all but ours. Also heard his father asked whether said coach would choose Indiana or Duke, if the decision were his, and he said Duke.
  13. Was just going to mention this. Really good center from Indiana died unexpectedly of heart issues. That DEFINITELY impacted their team in many ways. Dude can coach and he's a sleeping giant in terms of recruiting. Comes from a GREAT coaching family, played high level D1 basketball (ACC), and made it further in the tournament at Dayton than Crean did in 9 seasons at Indiana.
  14. Holtmann, Miller, and Collins are 3 guys that I think are the next wave in really good coaches in the NCAA.
  15. I prefer to look at a coach's entire body of work. Fans do this every year. Some guy has an outlier season and the fans start to act like he's the answer. Scott Drew would be an awful hire on many fronts. 100% lateral move.
  16. Great perspective. 2 years ago would have been a difficult time to pull the trigger, the more I think about it. Great core returning with a McD's AA coming in. Had to play it out.
  17. Some people just want to watch the world burn...
  18. Quinn Buckner said on his radio show 2 years ago that he knows for certain that the Donovan camp reached out to IU. Seems to fall in line with the rumors that Indiana and Donovan had conversations and Indiana wasn't willing to pull the trigger. My biggest fear isn't that there won't be a big name coach who will want the job. My biggest fear is that Indiana will refuse to pay a homerun hire what the market requires.
  19. You are either a troll or a pathological liar.
  20. I don't believe a word you're saying. None of it makes sense.
  21. What if the university is trying to discreetly reach out to a handful of candidates? There are uses for these types of avenues.
  22. With mostly Donovan recruited players too.
