Yeah, just dreaming a bit. He would certainly be a surprise. UF is my second most favorite team so I actually hope we get a great coach not named Golden
Meh.
We know his stance on Stevens is based on a vague quote.
Dusty May being out is obvious to everyone
TJO inexplicably loves Ames Iowa
Drew being officially out is only mildly news worthy.
And that is assuming he isn't just talking out of his a$$, which is highly more likely than not.
All the recent game announcers' sappy homages to him, like he's some sort of historic college BB figure saying goodbye after long successful career, only feed his delusions of grandeur.
He actually thinks a nail biter home win against a bubble team is something to crow about? I'm mystified by how a person can ignore such obvious failure. It saddens me a bit that he makes it hard to root for this team.
It expires this June, stems from an incident in 2017 and amounts to a whopping no off-campus recruiting related activities during this April . Bruce Pearl had a 3 yr show cause for near identical violations. I see no issues if SD's due diligence comes back clean.

Will have made NCAA tourney 7 of 8 years after this season
Great candidate.
Prove me wrong
I think there is going to be a lot of pearl clutching going on here come next week. Not sure why anyone thinks we will hear anything before at least sometime during the NCAA tourney. Does anyone believe the incoming coach (if a current P5 coach) would appreciate having to coach a team in the tournament while his players are distracted and answering questions about his impending departure?
Chris Beard is nothing more than an "In Case of Emergency Break Glass" candidate.
That emergency would mean being rejected by at least 5-7 candidates, IU knowingly upsetting some big money donors, and facing immediate PR issues and a potential future PR nightmare.
In short...not happening.
