You forgot Norman Dale.

Death threats are never ok.

What did Cashy really even say here? Indiana is talking to many people, doing due diligence. Active coaches are in communication through agents or other reps. Duh. This is every coaching hire everywhere in college basketball, college football, NBA, NFL, etc. Cashy has offered nothing here at Btown Banners but judgement of the fans and a big, wet blanket.

She told me the fanbase was the problem. Since she uses "Spellcheck" (and maybe Grammarly) she must be the most intelligent among us.

That sounds like you. Do you have mirrors at home?

I am going to run every one of your comments through a grammar checker next week Ms. Dunning-Krueger. Oh man, this was dead easy. I didn't even need to write a script.

gimme a link to it. I searched for a specific software product named that before I posted.

For less than 10k, you can probably change the entire sentiment of the board with strategically created users and posts. Internet forums are pretty easy to manipulate, not that any company I have ever been a part of has done that.

Spellcheck is not a proper noun. It is a common noun. I am in academia, and it's vitally important to me plus this formal message board that you correct yourself next time.

Again for everyone out there, this is Kathy's insight summed up today by PitV AI: "You all don't understand, there is a process. We are contacting agents and representatives. There will be a new coach at the end of the season. None of you know that very particular information that I have unique insight on."

Me too, but Pope and Kelsey were less than inspiring hires and have worked out well, so I'll hold out some hope. Plus, I really am tired of hearing how amazing things are every off-season. If Dolson believes BB can win games in Btown, I'll be right with him (until maybe I am not a few years in.)

Kathy is back on her BS. You forgot the rest of the sentence.

Changes I made, but mostly we're aligned.

It's how teenagers talk when they think they are smart plus Dunning-Krueger.

I am adamant that we don't need an inspiring hire. Inspiring or not, the coach has to win games (and not embarrass the university off the court.) We don't need to win the press conference or off-season. We need a basketball coach that will win games.

It's like the Beard RMK connection being talked about. It doesn't matter, tons of coaches have RMK connections and most of them wouldn't be successful at Indiana. These are not good criteria for hiring coaches.

I think there's an argument for Brownell. He's had high success the past two seasons in the NIL/transfer portal era while some coaches have quit (Wright, Bennett) or struggled a bit (Self, Drew.) He's from Indiana and has some recruiting connections and relationships already because of that. He could be a unique fit of right guy, right place, right time. A little Mark Pope. I'm not saying his argument to be the Indiana coach is the best one, but you can squint and see it being successful.

Cashy coming in here acting like an insider with specific information: You all don't understand, there is a process. We are contacting agents and representatives. There will be a new coach at the end of the season. None of you know that very particular information that I have unique insight on. Are you effing kidding me dude?

Cashy was steadfast that process was about firing Mike Woodson and he would not be fired during the season, not hiring a new coach. KathwithaC doesn't know a damn thing and is just an antagonistic fake insider. Cashy loves to sound above us all and tries to encourage professionalism and then immediately insults people. I believe Cashy as much as I believe any random Purdue jockstrap. Woodson sucks, Cashy can't face it or admit it, and that's kind of it. Everything else is Cashy acting like a spoiled teenager who thinks they know everything.

So many people were 100% sure.

McCollum isn’t going to excite many people, me included. He’s a wait and see hire, but I’m kind of wait and see with anyone. We’ve been down this road before. So many off-season banners are hanging in Assembly Hall. D2 championships mean absolutely nothing to me as an Indiana fan, but if Dolson and whoever he is getting advice from think McCollum can get it done, I’ll be on board… until the Fire Ben McCollum thread pops up.

This years team only beat the 26th ranked team. No way we could have beaten a ranked team like Illinois, right?

I do know that Pike has a fairly large buyout through the next few seasons. I know that he is very supported within the university administration. I know the university is much more focused on replacing their athletic director, since their current AD is interim, and their university president as well as capital projects. I know that I don't need to currently live in NJ to understand all of that.

Yeah I wouldn't be exactly excited, but we have done worse and can do worse. I can see a Mark Pope type transition with him.

But that's in your opinion, what counts is the opinion of the Rutgers administration.
