I brought up the Pearl post game comments about his guards earlier. But he also made a comment that if he’s seriously the candidate would be major shots fired at Woodson and staff imo. He made a comment that he looks for transfers from mid-majors. Not these high D1 washed out guys. I can’t recall exactly how he phrased it but I immediately thought of Ballo, Carlyle, Rice, Goode.

I still just don’t understand the whole rumored NDA/everyone getting told to shut up for a McCollum type name. Seems like Dolson put all his eggs in the Stevens, Donovan, Pearl, or similar level name basket. This is playing out eerily similar to 4 years ago.

Can’t wait for that Teterboro flight to land in Bloomington later today was originally headed to Indy Exec. Now straight to Bloomington edit - Indy exec is still on as well. 2 flights

Did anyone catch Pearl’s post game interview where he said our guards aren’t pu**ies live on ESPN? I don’t care that he’s on the older side I would take him in a heartbeat.

Where are the flights???? lol. I want a press conference tomorrow

Depends who wins. If Clemson, then no

Maybe we’re getting that bunt after all

I don’t even think we’ll land Stevens. Certainly hopeful for a name bigger than Brownell. I’d rather have a younger guy like McCollum or Huss over that. So no. But you and the others are the parents that when their kid has a dream and says they want to be a professional athlete rather than just cheering them on in their little league game you tell them their dream is stupid and they’ll never make it that far.

I’ll never forget the day the program dies when Brownell is hired.

You’re the parent that shoots that down to your kids? Sad. Because it’s a wonderful experience to see their delight.

The worst type of person is the one that throws shade or hate at anyone for believing in something. Who cares if people want to keep their BS dream alive? I can’t think of any aspect of my life where a decent person you’d be so adamant to shoot down someone’s beliefs no matter how extreme or far fetched they might be. And to take the time on a message board. Pretty pathetic.

Especially considering the Celtics have 1 late first round pick and it’ll probably end up going to an international player that they don’t have to bring over immediately bc of their salary issues. And 1 second round pick. That’s a lot of scouting for probably a second round pick.

I can definitely see no reason for the organization to do it. But from the client/agent side. 100%. I’m sure the same thing happens in NBA free agency. Agents telling teams his player is getting interest from so and so to drive up the price. In college coaching they’re doing the same thing whether to get raises or new better paying jobs. It’s quite literally the job of an agent.

I can’t believe I’ve quoted multiple Scotty R post today but I’ve thought this too. Rosters were similarly constructed on each of their FF runs. (Elite guard, second guard to spread floor, strong big). I realize this is what it takes to make a FF run but he hasn’t duplicated it. I do think Beard has an overall hire ceiling and floor but obviously the baggage Crean didn’t have.

I agree to an extent. But couldn’t it be looked like IU is similar to Alabama football as far as resources go. Not the recent success. And DeBoer left UW who he had rolling, in a strong conference but lacked quite the resources that Alabama could offer. It seems to happen more in football then it does in basketball.
