8bucks Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Fife is interesting though. Not that he is ready but he does work for Izzo, Creans former boss. Just an interesting dynamic. It also makes this more believable because who would include Fife in that list if they were just making this up. Quote
HooHooHoo22 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 This is just making me sick to my stomach. I can't imagine watching another season with Crean Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER and Maynard 2 Quote

Mile said that he thinks Fife was included because IU is looking at him as a potential coach on down the road and doesn't want to burn any bridges with him later. Not saying that's the reason but that was his thoughts anyway. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

Mile's source may have just informed him of the guys that had shown some interest. I know Stevens was included and he said no but he is included at the top of every list. Quote

Trish Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 I just saw on 247 that mile posted some updated info: Reach outs to : Stevens. Still not giving up, despite his telling us no Donovan. Don't want to say where it stands for fear of upsetting the apple cart. Sean and Archie. Further down the list. Dane. Personally, don't understand this,unless it is a stop gap, unless IU fails with the one's above. No reach outs to : Alford, Mack, or Marshall. And one other I can't remember the name of. He said that things went well with Donovan when they reached out but his sources have gone quiet recently on that front. He said they could be trying to keep it quiet until the season is over and don't want any leaks.We couldn't have picked a worst year to start a head coaching search. Lets flash back Stevens last year at Butler.. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Danny Bridges. Not sure if you have to be Facebook friends with him to see it, but I'm obviously not and there were plenty of other posts visible. I added him on messenger and asked him about it. All he would tell me about sources is he didnt need a source and that he may have jumped the gun on a 1000 dollar bet but that he will gladly admit if he is wrong which said he isnt. Said that IU hasnt reached out to anyone btw. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

IUHAHN81 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 If Fred doesn't care enough about IU being more than it is now and sticks with Tom Crean, I'm gonna crap in a pair of underwear and send them to his office. Let's get real, we will be lucky to win ONE more game this yr. Which means a sub .500 winning % overall. This **** is embarrassing. ALASKA HOOSIER and Happydaze 2 Quote

If we don't get Stevens this time and need a coach in the future... I could absolutely envision Stevens coaching at IU one day. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

If I reach out to Billie Jo a few towns over and ask her what she thinks about my friend Ian did Ian actually reach out to Billie Jo? Idk I kinda felt creepy enough messaging him tp begin with lol but I had to see if it had legs. I couldnt stand the thought of another crean year. Still could happen but seems like he likes starting drama. If Hutch commented on his post he has to have some connections just dont know how good. I sent him a message back but he isnt responding again so maybe someone else try or we just wait till we hear something more concrete. If it were true I would have kept the post up to gloat when it became true. Most people would. That makes me discredit the post entirely. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
