    they trimmed their property back at that time but was left with the area surrounding the two houses in the yellow circles for a very long time, so one could say they had some sort of lakefront property after the lake was made lol. They sold for some nice gains one could say over the past 10 or 15 years

    I thought I saw someone with creditable information stated that Cig wanted a similar hire to Cig, maybe I misread it or misinterpreted it entirely is a possibility too lol

    Shoot for the moon with Stevens and if it doesn't work, we likely end up with one of the best up and coming coaches on the circuit? I think that's a win/win imo.

    it is higher risk vs reward imo for either option. But Dolson saying he wants a hire similar to the Cig route, that doesn't scream a higher end guy like Drew, Beard, Cronin, etc. Maybe TJ could be included in with McCollum or Wade considering he's only been at Iowa st one season? idk

    The longer the uncertainty or quietness goes on, the more I am inclined to think the next coach will be someone like McCollum or Wade. McCollum has dominated (yes at D2 level and only 1 year at Drake) but man it's been an impressive run. Wade, while he had issues with level 1 violations at LSU, the sport has changed drastically since those issues took place. I think given the resources and open check book that IU has, either one would thrive here at IU.

    I would lean this way as well, but I may be considered a troll for not confidently assuming Stevens will be at IU.

    "we" as in those that don't think Stevens will be the HC at IU.

    so multiple people having the same opinion on say Stevens cannot be considered "we"?

    he won't get me! Are we seriously still on the Stevens to IU train AGAIN? Weren't we due news shortly after the NBA All Star game regarding mister Stevens? We all but certain got a rash of he's not coming and onto the next if I recall. At this rate, IF and I am not certain why I am even considering putting this sentence in but here I am doing so IF Stevens becomes our HC, the expectations will be even higher if he becomes the HC then say any other individual not named Stevens how soon before our intense fan base runs him off if he delivers subpar or results similar to Woody?

    so is SD setting the schedule? Example, the Marquette game in Chicago. Did SD initiate the conversation here and close the conversation?

    so who is the leader in the club house now for the HC gig?
  21. This season was/is my first year having men's basketball full season tickets(finally off of the waitlist). When the time comes to renew(June probably?), what do the payment options look like? I know they'll gladly take all your money in one lump sum payment, however, is there a payment plan option similar to how they have done with the football tickets for the 2025 season? If I recall, when they first released football season tickets late Dec 2024, the total was/could be pro-rated over a course of 10 months. Will something similar be an option for the men's basketball full season tickets? Thanks

    we have been irrelevant for quite some time. if becoming relevant means hiring Cronin(which some think is a boring hire) and we settle for yearly tourney appearances, sprinkling in runs to the sweet 16s and sometimes further, by all means sign me up. We have not had this type of success in quite some time. If you think otherwise, you are blind. Rome was not built overnight. He wins, google him(no shot at Cig here). With how NIL in constructed, when/if he is the coach and he gets IU back to winning(winning cures alot) those kids leaving Indiana to go elsewhere will want to come to IU and play. I am looking at you Mullins here. Yes, I want more banners on the wall. But let's be honest, how many posters here actually saw the last title that IU won? Not me, I was boring in 1990. Get this team back to constant tourney runs, big ten champions, etc and let the rest fall into place.

    better follow UCLA, Clemson, UM and Baylor very closely in March :) My bet is one of these coaches will be at IU with the two teams bolded as my best betting odds to be the next HC at IU.

    agree - check off all of your boxes. Don't just settle for Mick if Brad is truly off of the radar now(honeslty no clue if he is or not). Micks interview Friday was a good one just like Dustys was when UM was here and did his interview. For me, I'd choose between Dusty and Mick. Dusty has the wide potential floor vs ceiling risk/reward maybe. Lower floor based on lack of head coaching experience at higher end D1 schools but was very good at FAU with less resources available and in year 1 is very good at Michigan so a higher ceiling compared to Mick? Mick probably presents a higher floor but lower ceiling if comparing those two.
