    Welcome Coach Miller

    Is anyone else kinda like "what happens if Ohio St. opens up?" with Archie? Does he ride IU until Thad checks out and then Bolt? I know I know it's way too soon for those thoughts but it was my one concern hiring him knowing we were all hoping for a guy that would have lingering success here for the foreseeable future.
  2. Have they released what time presser is?

    I'm a tad old school. While I don't think it is absolutely necessary for our next coach to be an "Indiana" guy there r big advantages. I mean look at how the outsiders look at Indiana fans. They think we r ridiculous. U hafta understand how important bball is in Indiana to fully grasp this position. There is where the "double check +" comes into play from fred. We r a different breed in Indiana when it comes to bball. Understanding that is a factor. And no I don't want Alford. I'm just speaking in general terms.

    It really is a shame that Brad is so happy in Boston. This in any other situation would be so perfect for him to take over. Big pay raise. The opportunity to coach a dream job for him and be the one to truly bring IU back. Us fans would have an elite coach from Indiana. Just such a perfect scenario. Just wish it could all fall into place. What a bummer.

    Rest assured, he'll be bringing that 80's haircut with him!

    But in the meantime, Kentuckys jerseys suck! Straight checkers on the sides.

    Well hope he doesn't come to IU because according to media, we r the most entitled fans in the history of sports. Nevermind we r the only school with at least 5 banners that never gets anywhere these days. But yet we should be good with making the tournament every other year. If Duke, UNC, Kentucky etc started missing the tournament don't they think THEIR fans may be a bit upset? Winners expect to win. That's why they are winners. Losers settle. Hoosier fans are winners so the media should move on and forget about us ever settling for being ok looking like sh*t.

    I know some of us don't like Bennetts offense but at least with him as a coach, we will actually get to witness basketball plays being ran. We may not get out coached every game either. I'm all for Billy but Bennett at IU doesn't hurt my feelings as I enjoy fundamental bball vs turnover after turnover.

    I don't care about the football hire. IU is a bball school and Fred knows that. This is his 1st chance to make a huge splash with a hire and I think the part of Fred that is a huge IU fan will sew up a great hire. Like I said, I personally think it's already done. Just when to let it out.

    Exactly. His demeanor in that presser gave alot away to ME. I may be alone in that aspect but...

    True. And if u read what Tom and his extended family have said, maybe fred and Tom were never as close as everyone suspected.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    I just keep saying there is no way Fred doesn't have his guy already. It's just timing now. Said it before as have other posters, Fred doesn't fire his "buddy" Crean without a plan in place. It's just all timing.

    You wanna know who is coming? Watch for the guy that gets most defense when asked about it. Majority of the human race will get a bit testy when trying to cover something up. Especially as the time nears. My opinion.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    Crean is like me with women. Talks a big game but then can't perform when it counts. ;) I don't doubt his 2017 recruits really bought into his talk. Not surprising to me about asking for release.

    Ahhhhh, the national media guys. A lot of whom can voice their opinion because the were once bball coaches and ended up sucking so they are on tv now. I think I'll pass on their "recommendations" as to who takes over our coaching spot.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    Guys think about it. No way Fred was gonna fire Tom (whom most say he was super close to) without KNOWING who is guy was already. And he dang sure wasn't gonna fire his buddy to make some janky a$$ lateral move. It's done. Whoever it is. It's done.

    "You hired Billy D? Welp that's the 2nd IU coach I'm not setting up a series with!"

    Boy we've went from hanging from the janitors sack to stabbing him in the back. Haha

    I'm telling u guys, it's gonna be a BIG name. He isn't jacking around with this hire. I'm excited!

    Welcome Coach Miller

    I said this in the most iconic thread of all time already but I'll say it again...after doubting Fred on firing Crean, I'm not doubting him on the hire. Dude wants to be remembered for bringing in the savior. It's gonna be a BIG name. Guaranteed.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    "Hey, I just let Lonzo run the show!"

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    These media people think because we aren't ok with a bipolar bball program that wins BIG one yr and flat sucks the next that we are TOO harsh. Let me ask the media THIS....If we are soooooo not relevant in 2017 like we were in 1987, why the hell are u wasting ur time talking about us?! Get on somewhere!

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    After reading all these nation guys calling Donovan a "pipe dream" for us, I'm not buying it. I doubted Glass when it came to firing Crean and he proved me wrong. I fully trust he is gonna do EXACTLY THAT. Bring in someone that the media guys think is a pipe dream. He is on a mission with this task. Bank on it!
