Me either. Can we please just hire someone normal who’s a good coach. The over the top religious stuff is as bad as Crean and his whacko stuff.

Peegs board guy that supposedly has sources. Said earlier he’s moving on from Brad and focusing on May and Drew.

You saw the IUFB post I’m guessing?

You don’t have a clue if it did or not. You’re just speculating. You don’t know anymore than the people you accuse of not knowing anything.

Everyone knows who the number 1 target is. Him admitting that isn’t a big shock.

It is? Same love that was in the air early Friday?

Stevens isn’t quoted mentioning IU or its job. And never said the words being attributed to him. He was quoted as saying he enjoys working for the Celtics. Goodman is spinning the rest.

So where did the Breaking Bad story come from. That sounds awfully made up to not be true. Who could come up with an idea like that to pass along unless it happened?

If Steven’s said he’s not a candidate then that would be the most important words that Steven’s would say regarding the job. But Steven’s wasn’t quoted as saying that. He said he was happy working with the Celtics. None of that has anything to do with the IU job. To me that means the door is still very much open and that was put out as a way to quiet everything down.

Correct. I never heard Steven’s deny anything. He wasn’t even quoted as denying anything.

I watched them get beat at Tennessee by 30 with UT 2 best starters out.

I’m a know nothing who just reads things here. But to me it all comes down to what guys life goals are. He’s done achieved the top goal at Boston and checked that off the list. So now it just comes down to does he wanna stay there and be contempt trying to achieve the same thing over and over or does he want to try and achieve something else. With family and Indiana and a son at Notre Dame then ya maybe giving it a shot at IU is something he’s ready to try.

What makes Fife a home run assistant hire? Asking because I truly don’t know. Other than the fact he went to IU.

Adult Diaper bags? Larry Brown is 80.

If you have an IU degree you’re qualified by IU standards.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve seen talk of us getting home run assistants. Can’t get a home run coach so what makes people think we are getting home run assistants to prop up an average to bad head coaching hire?

The reason we aren’t a blue blood is because we refuse to be one. When you pay $3.5mill a year for a coach you get an average coach. If you want to be mentioned with UK, Duke, UNC and Kansas you have to spend money like they doing. IU is too cheap and stupid to do that. They keep spending money to fire bad coaches instead of spending money to hire a good one. People say this coach or that coach would never come here and that’s partially true. For $3.5mill they won’t. Try spending some money on these guys and you’ll get a different set of ears listening. This is more of the same. Only this time they are going to experiment by hiring 2 guys to try and make one good coach. Hopefully when this experiment is over we dont have to hear the hire an IU guy garbage anymore.

Same here. Don’t know what Indiana guy has to do with anything. Knight came from Ohio State and West Point. He wasn’t and Indiana guy. I’ll trade an Indiana guy for a coach who wins all day long.

Give IU fans long enough and they will talk themselves into it being good enough.

You ever seen the movie “Titantic”? Same ending.

Funny watching everyone talking themselves into this being a good hire. Happens every time IU hires a coach.

Good luck getting rid of a former player and Knight guy when it doesn’t work out. We are stuck with him.

Exactly. How many other college coaching jobs has his name ever been up for?

Can we find a spot for Beilein too. Then we can have all the old guys no one wants on the staff.
