They wanted to do whatever it took to get rid of bad basketball (Archie). They were probably as sick as we are the last 4 years and wanted things to change that badly.

Yeah after all this, to me he's more likely to go to the Pacers than to Bloomington

Have you seen his record as a coach? Player = Great; Coach = below average

Either way that HAD to happen whether we had a coach or not. For these donors, 10 mil is a drop in the bucket. $10 million to get rid of the headache? Problem solved

Beard - He's a Texas guy and his family are all from Texas. Sources say that his dream job is the Texas job if it opens up. Musselman - Sources say he wants to get back in the NBA, so we will constantly have that hanging over. Oates - His buyout is atrocious Bennett - Declined a pay raise and is happy at UVA To me that leaves Drew, Matta and Beilein unless you want to take your shot at another mid major???

Then Beard is not the guy!! He's a Texas guy and his family are all from Texas. Sources say that his dream job is the Texas job if it opens up. So if he's the hire, he will probably leave once Smart gets canned down the road or moves on.

Exactly, hence the need for my 'worried' emoji. Lol

Where's the "worried" emoji when you need one?? :)

Agree, his handle here is ISP if in fact it is him

Definitely Five Finger Death Punch!!!

Yeah it was exciting, but wasn't like in '87.....!!!

Me too, I was 15 in 1987!!

Someone's gotta leak somewhere

Cheaney as well....

Yeah a Google search says he got a 3 year extension, but don't show any specifics.

3.67 mil....6 year/22,000,000

3.6667 mil for 2021

I took it as the other type of husband things......like chores LOL

I say we just wait for Chris.....remember he said he had to do "husband" things and would be for like an hour?

Why does it feel like this has gone sideways compared to 40-45 mins ago

Damn do I feel old, I graduated high school in 1990 but got to grow up when IU dominated the 80's. I was a freshman when Smart hit the shot to win it all and graduated the same year Damon Bailey graduated. Got to see all the greats in college like Bird, Magic, Jordan, Ewing, Olajuwan, Barkley, Penny Hardaway, Mullin, Worthy, etc. So I was very lucky, I feel for you younger guys, all you've known is mediocrity. Hopefully all this changes when Brad becomes king of Indiana!!!

Still great material.....think I watched this 10 times like police listening to a crime scene.

I'm a huge Celtics fan and want this to happen!! Bird was my hero growing up as a teenager in the late 80's, back when IU was also the kings of college basketball!!!! Let's get back to those glory days when Kirkwood Street is vibing!

Can't say it any better, if your thinking Beilien......then to me Matta is the better option if we go down that far. Barring he is healthy now, hell he's only 53 years old and same pedigree as Beilein.

Freaking Newbies:)
