    Mike Woodson and His Coaching Staff

    Maybe this one has been quiet because Woodson is leading the effort. I don't really understand how it all works. I am sure that Dolson has to sign off on the hire, but he doesn't necessarily have to lead the process. Any idea if Fife was someone that CMW was targeting or if he was identified by Dolson and CMW gave the thumbs up?

    Do you happen to know if he was ever in consideration for the head coaching job at IU?

    Do you have any idea if CMW is talking to any NBA guys? I love the fact that we have Hunter and Fife, but I would have to think that Woody wants another guy on the bench that he has more of a relationship with.

    Arizona fans have cannibalized that program. They have unrealistic expectations of winning without cheating. Jay Bilas told me so.

    I am just not used to so many good things happening for IU basketball. It is a bit overwhelming. Dolson and CMW are effing killing it.

    It has been a long time since I have been this excited about Indiana basketball. I can't wait to see a team go out on the floor, play loose, and have fun. IU did not look like they were having fun last year, they looked like a team that had just been sentenced to a labor camp at the same time they were being punched in the dick and someone was kicking their puppy.

    Thanks for the exhaustive insight

    So do we think the TJD tweet is in reference to XJ, Keion, Franklin, Race, or an assistant coach?

    I was wondering the same thing. Does anyone know if they were given a deadline?

    He got someone from Bloomington to help him with the big words.

    That was actually a terrible joke on my part. Michael Lewis wrote the book "Moneyball".

    So do we think this is being held up because Michael Lewis is playing "Moneyball"? *rimshot*
  15. He is the lead recruiter for Jalen Washington, so that can't hurt.

    Indy Restaurant Recommendations?

    Mama Carolla's is a great dinner spot near Broad Ripple, not far from downtown.
  17. Like most people on this board, I was disappointed at first with this hire. The more I think about it, the more I like it. He is one of the only coaches we could have got that can actually say to a player, "I know what it takes to get to the NBA, and if you are willing to put in the work, we can make it happen." I think that will really motivate players to improve and put in the work to up their game.
  18. Ask and ye shall receive. I already started one.

    I am very disappointed with this hire but at least we got a guy who really wants to be here. I hope that is enough to return us to glory, but I am skeptical.

    What in the actual **** are we doing? Why wouldn’t you wait until after the tournament? Why would something this terrible take so long to complete?

    Candidate Thread: Brad Stevens (Boston Celtics)

    I found some more prophecies from Nostradamus. Believe not the words of the son of Zion, for his words are obfuscations. He will pledge allegiance to patriots and claim to be one with the whole of the masses. He will profess devotion to brown elixirs and claim how his steed may swerve and sway. Believe not his prevarications for his blood is still crimson, his loyalty still lies with the empire that flies the five flags. He shall return to fly five more, and return glory to the empire.

    Candidate Thread: Brad Stevens (Boston Celtics)

    I just found this prophecy from Nostradamus that I think explains everything: After a great fire destroys the mythical arch, which is foundation of the empire flying five Crimson flags, two days short of a fortnight the prodigal son of Zion shall return home to rebuild the empire, and fly in short haste five flags more. It seems pretty obvious to me that this means that 12 days after Archie is fired, IU will hire Brad Stevens (who is from Zionsville), and give us five more National Championships.

    I learned something interesting living in Texas. The Texas legislature issued the University of Texas millions of acres of land under land grants in the 1870s. A lot of the land was in west Texas, a location that no one in their right mind would want to live. In the early 1900s oil was discovered on this land. That land now compromises a large swath of the Permian Basin, one of the most productive oil basins in the world. I believe the current lease rates for University land are around ~$20,000 per acre and 25% of hydrocarbons recovered. So yeah, they are printing money.

    The Celtics use Laurence Hanscom Field in Bedford, MA.
