Off topic, but it’s slow in here & I think this is pretty cool https://x.com/barstoolgruden/status/1899470168331321675?s=61&t=1KiTJ7EYgX-uQgf4Wkb9sg

The real question, is did @BGleas media folks have whispers of this before it dropped?

iPhone, Coach.

Old guy here. How does one post memes& gifs?

He(she?)’s back! Well at least the journey into oblivion will be entertaining…

These people are obviously sadists.

Dude….

What ole-what’s-eez-name is, is just good enough to win 23 games a year, be in the tournament 75% of the time, & occasionally make the Sweet Sixteen. Or that’s what I’m afraid of…

That would be the worst use of a smokescreen ever, in terms of floating the absolute best case out there to ensure massive disappointment with virtually any other hire…

Of course one potential explanation for all of it could be miscalculation & incompetence by the decision makers. Let’s hope they didn’t misread the tea leaves to think they were getting the big fish, or if he was a no one of a few other big fish, only to find they’re settling for some worst case scenario. I hope not, & we’ll see how it ends, but that would just about make sense if everything we’ve been hearing…

This guy was likely just reading this board. I just can’t believe that the people in the know thought they had BS the whole time & it fell through in the eleventh hour. If BS strung them along, told them what he wanted, etc, only to back out at the last minute, I hope no team he’s associated with ever wins a game again. But I just can’t imagine that’s what played out…

McCollum to Iowa, IU winning the Brad Brownell sweepstakes? I kid, sort of…

No retreads please.

Yes, I’d bet any coach we’ve been talking about would have done better with this year’s team than Woody, the question is could they have gotten them all to come to IU?

You new here jackal? Interesting username…especially if referencing modern literature.

So much to like about this & your other posts. The pop culture stuff is fun, keep it up. If you are right & actually know something, you & a few others will be legendary for sticking to your guns & calling the shot. If you know nothing & are trolling, your commitment is legendary. If you know nothing & just want attention, your psychosis is legendary. I

Probably best case at this point, one of those two…

I bet Dolson did. I posted weeks ago, I think he rounded up support & big $$ & thought he’d get his man, thus all of the posts from Jerry, RTZ, Chris, etc. But he missed again & a bunch of the people that were sharing info early on were counting their money still sitting at the table so to speak, & now he’s trying to push Beard because he’s proper screwed. Just conjecture though.

Who are the insiders, & have they proven to have valid inside info? Were you here 4 years ago when the same group of posters was claiming it would be BS? I like reading the rumors & such, but not sure the insiders here have been right at calling any big news, but maybe I’ve just missed it. I’d LOVE to be proven wrong, but I’ll bet dollars to dimes we’re not getting a tier 1 guy….maybe not even tier 2.

You’re sure, huh? Ok. It won’t be Goodman softening the blow, it’ll be IU people leaking to let the outrage pass before the official announcement.

Lol, Goodman won’t be doing the leaking…

If Goodman truly doesn’t have sources that have good info, he’s a real idiot for posting a definitive list of who it won’t be. Chances are, he’s got decent info, & the leaks that start to come out are meant to soften the blow of a disappointing or polarizing hire…

His tournament record is really good, no doubt bolstered by a run to the final game, but 11-5 is really good overall. I agree with you though, I’d like to see a little better regular season & conf win %.

Yep, 1 was a pre-requisite for Beatles. Gass was a gem…
