Here's something to look at. I should send this to Dolson and let him know how badly Indiana screwed up by not hiring Dusty last year.

After talking to someone in the know, it appears TJ Otzelberger has his eyes on staying in Ames.

Goodman didn’t even get a good quote from Brad regarding the opening. That’s the funny part.

Maybe he has, maybe someone has and it hasn't leaked somehow. Brad has too much respect for coaches to take the spotlight away from a current staff / current team.

Stevens is not going to accept a job where a current head coach is still working.

Natural at this point. Woodson has been fired for two weeks now, fans want to know who is the next coach even though it will be weeks before we find out.

I’ve been to the practice facility and the new arena. It’s significantly better than Assembly Hall. Yes we all love AH, but it’s lacking even after the updates. Indiana’s practice facility is old.

I don’t understand why Scott Drew would leave Baylor for Indiana. Baylor is in a better conference, better facilities, and he’s a legend there. NIL isn’t an issue either at Baylor.

Brad Stevens.

Because Brad Stevens isn't currently a coach.

Yep not good enough then. Stevens, Pearl, or Beard.

Not too strange with the scheduling. Indiana wants to be in big games, on TV, in large crowds when they can. Especially with the new era of college athletics starting this July, Indiana wants to be a national brand. I could see Hulls and Calbert being retained. Everyone else though, I’m not buying it. The GM role is becoming popular in MBB and WBB. It’s basically what Sleepy Armond Hill is. A fancy title for an advisor to the program.

TOM ********* CREAN! @realTomCrean or Brad ******** Stevens

I don’t see Scott leaving Waco. He’s the second Jesus there and that new arena makes Assembly Hall look like the north side Kroger in Bloomington. Bad.

It’s Brad Stevens.

Dolson must love seeing Michigan at 20-5, #12 in the country. While Indiana, with projections to finish 1-2 in the Big Ten and an elite transfer class, is about to miss the dance, again.

If it’s not one of those guys I think we tear down Assembly Hall and build a state of the art football facility. We’re a football school now!

Alright, Dusty May is off the table. Here is the official list of candidates. 1. Stevens 2. Pearl 3. Beard

He was quoted as he only gave advice for the job, not that he was interested in it. He hasn't spent a night in Stillwater unless they've played there. Who can blame him though? Stillwater looks terrible.

Well if it's not Bruce or Beard, let alone Stevens or Billy D, then it's a failure iMO. Hiring a "potential" coach would be disappointing, considering we just wasted the last four years when we could've done potential then.

He's also mormon so he's right at home.

Exactly this. I rather have Jay Wright even so. These two coaches have made their intentions clear, they are done with today’s college basketball.

“I think I was equipped to do the job here the old way,” Bennett said. “That’s who I am, and that’s how it was.” He’s not getting back into D1 high major basketball. Players are about to be paid “officially” here starting next season, he doesn’t want any part of that including the portal.

That’s not good enough at Indiana. Otherwise Crean would be here.

He’s been extremely disappointing since winning the championship in 2019. I find that extremely concerning and the fact that he doesn’t believe in this new era of NIL,transfers, etc,. I don’t see him being a fit at Indiana in 2025-2026. He’s likely done coaching unless he wants to go D2 or D3 which I could see him enjoying more.
