CrossboneIU22

I’m good with anyone 1-10 and I like the order too for the most part. I’d probably switch 8 & 10 though but that’s just me. Gets past 10, I’ll be very unhappy except for Collins. I wouldn’t be overly joyed with him but wouldn’t hate it either.

C’mon Chris. Isn’t it so obvious?! There is no noise because the process hasn’t started yet. Kathy’s intel has told us that the process won’t start until the season has officially ended. Therefore, no soft chatter to be heard and hence the reason that Dolson isn’t talking to anyone yet. He doesn’t want to get fired by Quinn for starting the process before IU allows him too.

I don’t know if the Mods have a way to disprove my theory but I would love for them to if possible, and I hope that I am wrong too. I’d love for Issac and BehindTheBench to be accurate. My theory though is that Kathy came in trying to tell us about the process but was being really smug about it. She got on people’s nerves and rubbed them the wrong way which caused people to get upset and tune her out, regardless of whether or not what she said was reality or not. She got very butt hurt about that do decided to sarcastically come in as with a blaze of glory under the name Issac (another board member screen name reference like Kathy) pronouncing Stevens to IU to mess with us all. It was believable at first until the Friday that the info started coming in real time and fast and furious. The info about the negotiation of the contract, needing and getting board approval all within an hour or so. This is when I made the list about starting to feel duped and things getting weird. He/She started to get heat again and realized that the gig may be up but still tried to through out believable feelers but less and less people were holding on to his word. He decided to lay low for a few days, periodically trying to drop nuggets to see if they would hit as other insiders dropped nuggets of info. Finally, he decided to give up that persona and try a new one with BehindTheBench. Another screen name that portrays a closeness to the program or “insider”. The posting styles are eerily similar too. Again, trying to see if he can real people in so maybe at a later date they can come out and say that we are all so gullible and out of touch with reality as revenge for the treatment she got as Kathy. Again, I hope my Theory is all asinine and Kathy, Isaac, and BehindTheBench are not all the same person and do know what they are talking about, but as of now, these are my thoughts. Can we just hire a coach already. Now, back to the drinking portion of the thread. But for the record, I am violating my own schedule by not drinking right now even though I may be spitting out incoherent content. Good night Ya’ll!!

10 business days puts this about Thursday, March 6th.

Yes, something along those lines. Just gotta come back in about an hour with some slurred speech and incoherent talk about fishing with Calhoun and him telling you Dean Smith would be our next Coach. Thanks for staying on schedule!!

RE: News Thread - We do but its buried about 5 pages deep on this board and hasn't even reached the 2nd page yet because there really is no credible news out there. (just kidding for those who might actually go looking for this fictional thread)

Google Hooters about 10 times and go to their website, facebook, twitter/X, and Insta pages and then it might be a wish granted. Might have to bing it too. LOL

Is Isaac and Kathy, actually the same person?

Just making a light hearted jab at the pace of this thread. It was not a personal jab at you.

This is so 20 pages ago, lol

Pretty sure the ads are personal to the user logged in ………….

Again, not going to bog down this Candidate News thread by posting the Poll result details here, but did want to post the final overall results and links to the threads where I do provide the details and some of my personal analysis of the data. I believe understanding the perception we all have of the potential candidates is important to add to the discussion points in this thread. But most importantly, it should show everyone that, just because you believe something to be true, doesn't mean others do, which is ok and doesn't make you right and them wrong or you wrong and them right. Only time can truly answer that question. We are all different and have different view points. In the end, we are mostly all Indiana Hoosier fans, minus the trolls, and want our team to compete and win national championships. There are many paths to get there, not just one, but once we do, we can all really unite as one, finally! Final Approval Ratings Poll 1 https://btownbanners.com/topic/14831-potential-coaches-approval-rating-poll-closes-thursday-at-midnight/ Poll 2 https://btownbanners.com/topic/14842-potential-coaches-approval-rating-part-2-poll-closes-sunday-at-midnight/

Results from the 2nd poll: Donovan is the clear leader from this bunch but less universal that I thought he would be at 81.5% Golden is the only other candidate from this pool above 50% at 73.3% The choice that would unite the fan base the most is Steve Alford at 9.6% approval, which means everyone would be united in hating the hire. Even re-hiring Crean (13.0%) or hiring Callipari (16.4%) were both more approved of than Alford (9.6%). The most divisive out of this group includes: Mark Byington (47.9%) and Rick Pitino (46.6%) hovering just under the 50% mark. Raw Data Ranking List (Just the 2nd batch of coaches) Overall Ranking between both polls:
