I've been off forums for a few years now...... Well bc IU hoops has been off for a few years now.
I'm sure Michigan regrets their decision now, but when they wanted Harbaugh they basically took their A team and a dump truck full of money and wouldn't leave until they got their man. IU needs to do this now with Stevens. Just go get him for F#$%'s sake.
Bennett has been more consistent in the ACC and getting to the Tourney vs CTC. I just don't think you can win an actual NCAA championship with his offense. You need great guards who can score at will. My guess is he'd consistently get us there then exit early - much like he's done at UVA.
Would never happen but I'd be curious to see jay bilas as a bball coach. Reminds me of how they pulled Purdue Person vermeil back out of broadcasting and he lead the rams to a super bowl win.
I'd take him but I just don't see him leaving Arizona. Maybe less pressure there? Thank crean for making it easier to step into the job bc it was a crap storm from Sampson?
I don't get Bennett. I like the defensive mind set but I think he swings too far in this direction and I think it'll be hard to win a NCAA title with this mentality. He's never won a title. He had 2 ACC titles in 8 years. Three sweet 16's, one elite 8. Him and Alford are way low on my wish list.
What's more time consuming? Coaching in the NBA or college? I heard that Stevens said he likes having more time to spend with his family with his current gig vs his college coaching days.
Can IU realistically wait for donvan's season to end? If OKC makes say the 2nd round, that's into May right? The roster is over the scholarship limit - that needs to be dealt with. Don't want too many recruits or current players to jump ship bc then ur talking a longer rebuild.
