Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I honestly just dont know anymore. Any post to me is believable at this point because well we have nothing else to go off and two the AD is Fred Glass so this could be handled several ways. I have no plans on guessing or assuming anything anymore I am just gonna give it some time and see what happens instead of getting my hopes up or vice versa.

He had Allen ready to go and it only took 15 days to hire Yegley no way we started from scratch. Can't remember how long the baseball situation took edit. Looked 9 day gap between baseball coaches.

Personally, I'm not as big on Glass as others on here are. Facilities improved, sure. While I was willing to give Moren a chance with WBB I wasn't enthused with the hire, and I'm willing to give Allen a chance at HC for football but I don't like how that was handled since he was only a DC at this level for 1 season. So no, I wouldn't be surprised if Glass botched it. He had a good opportunity to fire Crean already and didn't do it, presumably because of a buyout he was stupid enough to sign in the first place.

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 There has been some good insider info if Crean and IU part ways mutually. Maybe we should change the name of the thread haha. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Yeah if the Runors are true that we could have had Donovan 2 years ago and we botched that then frankly it shows that Glass belongs at s school like Purdue that just wants decent teams at everything.

If it is in Glass's hands I am truly worried. I dont want a search firm taking the whole thing over but Glass does need to get some help. Maybe Cuban can give some advice....seriously though. He is a very smart man regardless of what his personality gives off. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Tom White 1 Quote
JSHoosier Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 1 hour ago, Hoosier in NC said: Exactly. What if IU goes in this direction and then for some reason Louisville, Kentucky, North Carolina, Duke, etc. need a coach in a year? Nothing to keep BD from choosing one of those programs and leaving IU in a really awkward position. Let's say IU could pull off a Donovan hire. He would have literally every resource at his disposal that they could offer, with an advantage over most of being in the heart of a recruiting hotbed. Bad coaching hires is the only thing keeping IU from being right there with them, and Donovan would be a home run. Napleshoosier, Happydaze and Feathery 3 Quote

I have a gut feeling Glass will try to make a splash with this hire because his job will probably be attached to it. Especially sense Men's basketball is were the majority of the revenue comes from.

AKHoosier Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 10 hours ago, BlueDevil2aHoosier said: My thoughts if what op says is true and Donovan wants to come but wants to wait a year is that you move on. Can't let one guy hold you hostage. You make this supposed move and what if he changes his mind? If you're coming you come now or move the f on. I know he's the 1st or 2nd choice but even with BS you can't let them hold the program hostage. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Exactly. It's not like Donovan or any other coach holds all the cards. We have leverage too. If we have a vacancy, a lot of good coaches would want to come here. The IU job is only going to be open so many times in your coaching career. Sh1t or get off the pot if you want it. BlueDevil 1 Quote

Great point. You'd think that both Glass and search firm would know that Glass' job and their firms reputation rest on the next hire. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
