    General Coach Candidate News

    My answer on a lot of guys is “would like to do better, we’ll probably do worse.” McCollum is one I’m not thrilled at all about, though. He’s a huge risk that IU shouldn’t have to take.

    To clarify one thing on my end, I don’t think people are just making up rumors. At least not on here. I feel like pushback against “inside information” is often seen as an attack on the people posting it. I don’t think folks are coming onto btownbanners and posting fan fiction. I think they’re told things by people they know, and then they let us in on that information. Sometimes people get bad info. Other times good info becomes bad info because life happens and circumstances change. We’ll see how this all shakes out.

    Well, believing that we were getting Brad Stevens last time and then seeing the “Mike Woodson has been hired as the next IU basketball coach” notification was as big a gut punch as you can get for something like this. If I don’t believe it this time around then the gut punch won’t be as bad.

    Yes, I live my life not believing every rumor I hear from anonymous sources on the internet. It hasn’t hurt me yet. This is an exact repeat of four years ago. If it ends differently and we actually get Brad Stevens? Great! We’ll all be happy. But if it ends the same way, hopefully that’ll be the end to the Stevens rumors and people can finally move on.

    I’ll believe Scott Dolson can hire a great basketball coach when he actually goes out and does it. Everything basketball-related decision during his tenure has been a disaster.

    We “had our guy” last time too and then ended up with Mike Freaking Woodson… I really hope Dolson actually has other guys lined up this time. Otherwise, come on down Coach Randy. We’ll become one last multi-million dollar payday for retirement age former Hoosiers.

    Let’s hope Dolson actually knows what he’s doing this time and doesn’t end up striking out like he did in 2021. Hope he’s not relying on the Stevens prayer again.

    I don’t really like the players either.

    Thanks for the scolding Steub, I’d like another please.

    My faith in the IU administration is so deep in the gutter that I half expect a “just kidding” announcement tomorrow.

    Not in the slightest. But IU should show that it has some semblance of standards and send him home now.

    They “Retired” Coach Woodson Thread

    Woodson skipped the pregame interview. Dude is such a loser. Why is he still the coach?

    Getting chills thinking of Wittman running the show with Isiah in a general manager role. You’re talking decades of NBA experience. Recruits will be lining up out the door for those connections.

    Roy Williams didn’t quit his coaching job and take a non-coaching job during those three years, and he also was a UNC alum. Brad Stevens has no connection to IU, he quit coaching entirely, and he’s turned the job down multiple times. He left the college game over a decade ago and reportedly didn’t like recruiting when he was in it.

    “Inside information” makes a forum fun. I have none of my own, so I enjoy reading what others say. But, like anything else, I try to analyze it based on all the information available. The Brad Stevens stuff has never passed the smell test to me. Nor has the Scott Dolson stuff. Doesn’t mean I’m right, it’s just my opinion.
