    Welcome Coach Miller

    Kind of like the story about Phil Jackson asking MJ, "who's open?" I haven't watched OKC play a lot this year but when I have and I've seen some of the shots he takes? " Who's open Russ?" comes to mind. Dude is shooting low 40 %s overall and low 30s on threes.

    I thought it stood for f**k football! Which are my sentiments. Now I'm disappointed man!

    I pretty much agree with that. Even Smith isn't a make or break recruit though imo. I feel like if we are going to compete With the big boys though (UK, UNC, Duke, etc) we need to start With better recruiting. You need a coach who can maximize that talent as well but it starts With talent. While we've had talent At times last 6 years we haven't had the depth of talent and in my opinion not near the coaching needed.

    I'm not so sure That's a bad thing. None of their recruits are "program makers". I think a really good coach (aka Donovan) could take what's remaining and have a pretty competitive team next year. At worst, leave the scholarships open and give himself plenty open spots to recruits to.

    Marshall vs Miller? Marshall 1 Miller 0.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    Donovan is my first choice (Stevens isn't happening in my opinion), after that I like Marshall.

    He's my choice.

    I'm watching this WSU vs Dayton game and seeing some really weird stuff! A couple of minutes ago? This guy didn't even have the ball and he ran along the baseline and then he kinda like curled around, and there was a guy there that he ran real close to and it kind of blocked his defender and then there was another teammate there that like did the same thing! It looked cool! We should do it and call it something like a double screen! But why do they move without the ball? And they seem to really want to stay with their man on defense! Weird! They try and Deny their man from getting the ball also! They don't do that little weave thing at the top of the key though? That's weird! Thought everyone did that!

    I believe if the playoffs started right now OKC would be up against GS or SA. I don't see the second round happening. And they ain't replacing Durant in the off-season. That's one reason I really think he is a legitimate candidate. OKC is not now what they were when he took the job and more than likely never Will be.

    Just win baby! Lol seriously, RMK could be a real Jackhole at times but...he won, and won BIG throughout most of his career at Indiana. Winning covers a lot of faults.

    That is interesting. Wonder how Matt Roth felt...Mo Creek...Ron Patterson...

    Dakich likes to push buttons. If he's saying that it's just to agitate people. He's kind of fun to listen to but tbh, I'm not sure what he's done that makes him and others think his opinion is worth valuing? He was not a great player at Indiana. A middling coach at Bowling Green (at best). He seems to have the opinion that if you haven't personally played or coached them you're not worth listening to. Well, if you did it but were mediocre are you worth listening to? It's just the " 'ol boy network" thing.

    Is he gone yet? 1-800-gouhaul. Unless he changes his ways I'm not sure he'd see the court much there. If you don't wanna be here then don't stay.

    To me, this is it right here a nutshell. Good/great coaches don't have this inconsistency.

    Do you really think that Glass would fire a guy who won the B1G, has been to a final four, and is owed 4 million bucks...to hire an assistant off someone's bench who in his only head coaching experience at a small college had a very mediocre record? I loved Fife when he played for Indiana but I just don't see that happening.

    I always thought Davis was in over his head but I always liked him. The time he said, "I hate Kentucky" all I thought was...ME TOO!!!

    I've been hoping for a while that this is the scenario playing out. If the buyout is the issue then just retain him until July 1st with no position and hire someone competent. I've had the sinking feeling all along that for whatever reason Glass won't let him go. Some people fear change so much they accept mediocrity because it MIGHT get worse. For those wondering what fans Will do of no change is made? Not a lot we can do. I'll just find other things to occupy my time and interest. I'm told old to care about a team that the administration doesn't value highly. You care and they don't? You're going to be very frustrated!

    A friend and I we're talking about possible landing spots for Crean the other day. He mentioned NC State. I told him, "can you imagine what it would be like if he had to Coach against UNC, Duke, and Virginia twice a year? It'd be total carnage!!!" I guess you could throw Ga Tech in there now as well lol.

    I'd like to see him stand up...stand up, start walking...leave...however it happens. Have a feeling I'm gonna be disappointed.

    That game was the first time I really felt that sick feeling in my stomach and dropped my head when folks brought up, "Hey, you're an IU fan aren't you? Wth we're they thinking cutting down the nets after that???" and All I could think was, "there is no way in hell Knight would have done that!" And watching Matta and his players smirk as the game ended? Idk who I wanted to punch in the throat more? Matta or Crean!!!

    Good luck with that! I'm so cooled off I'm frigid! I think many have become apathetic. Who wants to settle for slightly above average? I'm to old to settle for "maybe someday". What Glass seems to be willing to settle for is pathetic.
