3 mil evidently. Everyone has money now

Yeah. Rodney Terry just got fired after 3 years with an Elite 8 appearance and making the the tourney every year. Not saying it’s wrong or right to fire someone for those results but coaches have gotten fired even when they make the tourney every year

For this fanbase? At least an Elite 8. Fans haven’t seen one of them since 2002

Until IU makes a deep run in March any coach at IU is going to be under pressure to win and win now and win big. Dark side of coaching at IU. People can say all IU has to do is make the tourney in year X however it’s never going to be enough until a deep run. The minute he makes the tourney in year 1 it will shift to well that don’t count because it’s the first 4 (B1G still gets a unit for a first 4 win and it goes in the record book), Doesn’t count they didn’t beat a power 5 team they got lucky Y team got upset and so on. It is what it is at IU. Coach at IU has to make the tourney in every year he coaches. If not even when some say he won’t have to that’s exactly what will need to happen because of the budget. Plenty of schools will have a budget comparable to IUs. Maybe not as much but enough to compete for the same players. He willingly signed up for the job knowing the expectations. That should relieve some of you to have a coach that isn’t going to hide from expectations

I think these are big time decisions that affect years not just next season for DeVries and he is taking his time to fill the rest out. He is willing to hold out if that’s what it takes. Ostrum wasn’t hired until months after DeVries got the job at West Virginia. Ostrum took another job before he ultimately decided to follow him to West Virginia from Drake

Overton to Auburn

Taco Casita for the win Terre Haute special Wet Plate

Playing juco just ensures he gets an extra year I believe. He played 3 juco and 2 at Troy so he gets an extra year which will be his 6th.

Having an actual college basketball coach run the program you are invested in can be fun. IU was always going to fill the roster. We have no idea how these additions will eventually end up however having a grinder for a coach that is willing to get on a plane to close a deal should be a really good sign to IU fans that he is going to do whatever it takes and bust his butt along with his staff to turn IU around. Building a roster with a plan is music to my ears. Transfer portal rankings are not everything however just looking at the rankings of the IU players and West Virginia players going out compared to what he is trying to bring in and a clear upgrade can be seen from a numbers standpoint. Again that’s not everything but is noticeable. Let DeVries sizzle(cook still sounds better)

Yeah he went to Miss St and Vandy before the IU visit

A couple things first big time recruiting battle for a top transfer recruit. Props to coach Devries and the staff he has for battling and landing this kid. DeVries seems to have a recruiting plan and sticks to it no matter the time table. From the outside and what we had for the last 4 years on the recruiting plan this is a breath of fresh air 2. This was an optics win for IU fans that care about those things. IU has taken it on the chin in these types of recruitments so for their sake I’m glad they got this one 3. DeVries has landed 3 top 40 transfer portal kids in his first 5 weeks on the job without a full staff. Grinder for sure. Some programs didn’t land any top 40 kids and he landed 3 so far (don’t care if one is his kid he still got him). Having said that I personally don’t put much stock in transfer portal rankings. That’s a lot of kids entering to keep tabs on when these guys rank 4 years worth of high school kids as well. But it’s another win for IU fans that care about optics

Kentucky probably stopped recruiting him(sarcasm)

IU bound

Don’t think so but you can try your paramount + password and username in the Peegs login. 247 is owned by CBS so they ran a promotion if you signed up for 247 you got Paramount + for free

Paramount + is awesome and the fact I can go to other sites and see what their insiders are saying is a plus. Just finished Dexter Original Sin the other day. I’m perfectly fine with paying what I pay for my subscription.

Final 2 but UK and Cal wanted him
