  1. Assuming not everything in the last two hours is complete BS about BS…what does it say about Stevens that he won’t take this job for ~$9m but would entertain it for $11m? Either you’re up for coaching college again or you’re not. At this point his finances are set for life, so why is an extra $1-2m going to not only change his mind but make him actually be all in with what the job entails for years to come?
  2. Agreed. Archie Miller would have been scooped up by a big name program at that point in his career. If not us, he would’ve landed a top 15 job during the window when we were looking to get rid of Crean.
  3. Me watching this board go at it after pushing the Ben McCollum narrative all these years haha.
  4. Then they can go lose somewhere else!
  5. Virginia has entered the chat on eyeing Ben McCollum.
  6. Ah March 19, 2021…the first time Ben McCollum was introduced to this board - https://btownbanners.com/topic/12834-coaching-candidate-thread-ben-mccollum/
  7. He’s also coaching a roster of burger flippers, not burger boys. This is what coaching adjustments looks like, fellas.
  8. Glad to see you’re finally coming around.
  9. Congrats to Coach McCollum on punching his ticket to the NCAAT after winning the MVC tournament today. 30-3 so far on the season.
  10. You have it backwards. Cig is McCollum Jr.
  11. Watch McCollum go further in this year’s tournament than any IU coach has in >20 years, with four D2 transfers in his starting lineup.
  12. Drake on to the MVC championship.
  13. I’m having a hard time deciding which IUBB team was more undeserving of a tourney bid, this one or the 2014-15 team?
  14. Their causes of death were unveiled today with some unsettling details… https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/gene-hackman-died-of-heart-disease-betsy-arakawa-died-of-hantavirus-medical-examiner-214220628.html
  15. Random thought, if McCollum retired from coaching this season would he make the Basketball Hall of Fame (as a coach)? There are several D2 coaches who have been inducted, Herb Magee and Clarence Gaines, for example. McCollum’s D2 success surpasses both of theirs.
  16. Stranger (dumber?) things have happened in this universe. It would be quintessential IU to fire a championship winning coach the season he won the championship because we didn’t think he’d ever win a championship. Go Hoosiers.
  17. I mean, those who stayed were champions…
  18. He was told to leave while the season was still going on. Woodson also wasn’t technically “fired.”
  19. Mike Woodson about to join Steve Fisher as the only coaches to win a national championship in a season where the team’s head coach was fired. “What a time to be alive!”
  20. Random thought, if McCollum retired from coaching this season would he make the Basketball Hall of Fame (as a coach)? There are several D2 coaches who have been inducted, Herb Magee and Clarence Gaines, for example. McCollum’s D2 success surpasses both of theirs.
  21. I agree that our roster is a mess. We still may win a NC with them this year, but we’re probably looking at a big turnover this offseason.
  22. (Close enough)
