Scotty R

Because he is an alumni and his season is over. That same day they showed numerous former UNC players at their game on Saturday

Brad Stevens went from working at Lilly to Butler to the Celtics. To me that is a bigger leap than what McCollum would have to do.

No one really knows anything so take it with a grain of salt

Not me I would take him above most of the candidates besides Stevens and a couple of others.

There is an article on ESPN.com but I could only read a little bit of it because it is behind a paywall. The main thing was where are all the big time coaches. It was talking about why Indiana other big time programs are having trouble getting top tier coaches to come to their schools. Also said if Texas and Villanova comes open they probably will have the same problem.

Why would you be unhappy to say this because this would be a very good hire. If all the realistic candidates he would be on the top of my list

I am a very happy and content person and I am not negative. Just because I don't believe the rumors about Stevens does not make me a miserable person

My mistake on typing it was DD

Typo DD

Meant DD

Take it for what is worth DD said he talked to someone in college basketball and said that a deal is done. They are just waiting to announce it after season. He didn't say who the coach was going to be but did say it wasn't Brownell. DD said Dr. Ronk is the one pushing for Brownell and he even pushed for him after Sampson was fired.

How is that unlike every poster on here

The more I read and hear about McCollum I say sign him up and let him do his job. On the basketball court he will be better than most of the candidates on here. If we have all of this money put it towards getting the best staff available and administrators to do the portal. If college basketball is becoming like professional sports then build a pro organization.

From everything that has been said about Dolson on how he is keeping everything quiet and no one is talking then where does these rumors come from. A lot of them are probably coming from agents who has agendas and getting their clients raises. If Dolson is keeping this quiet then most rumors are probably bogus.

I wouldn't call Wade a big fish

What did I say that was wrong. I didn't bash anyone but I feel they are just playing with your emotions

Man I was off if here for two hours and can't catch up. So RTZ is backing off of that everything is dead They probably just want to keep the clicks coming for the website

All I have to say is how many coaches, administrators and presidents have we had the last 25 years. It is always their fault and most of it is their fault but I think the fans need to look at themselves and see we can do a better job of supporting the players and coaches.

The last few years I stayed part of the problem in our coaching searches are because of the fan base. Our fan base is great but also can be a hindrance as well. I see posters say certain candidates can't handle the demands and stress of this job. My question what makes our job more demanding and stressful than other top jobs. On the court basketball is basketball no matter where you are at. So the only thing that could make it more demanding is the off the court stuff and isn't part of that is the fan base high expectations and wanting the coach to be out there in the public eye. I am not saying it is the only problem but we need to look at ourselves in the mirror and see that we might be a small part of the problem getting better coaches to come here That plus that top coaches don't leave their current jobs

RabJohn's was just on 107.5 here in Indy 1) He was asked about Stevens and he said that a couple of donors he talked to said that Stevens was a silent verbal. He said he totally don't believe and don't see that happening. 2) He was asked if he was given a choice of McCollum and Brownell or the field and he said right now he would say McCollum or Brownell over the field. He would put that at 55/45

I wouldn't think anything will be done until after our last game or our new coach last game.

So what time is this bombshell supposed to drop

Why couldn't McCollum replicate what Kelsey did at UL. It isn't like Kelsey had all of this recruiting connections being at mid major program

That Woody is coming back for a 5th season? LOL

Why do you have to be such a tool
