coonhounds Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 For those who want Fife, care to explain your reasoning? Not trying to attack anyone, just honestly curious. I posted this in another thread (may have been this one, not sure with 10 pages being added every day lol) that I don't think anyone would be mentioning him if he didn't play here. Losing record as a D1 coach. Yes he's done well recruiting, but that's for Izzo ultimately. I just see nothing that should put him even close to our radar.His only head coaching experience was with ipfw and they were just becoming a d 1 team and he did a pretty darn good job. He isnt my first choice and is a heck of a risk but if they hired him i would back it 100%.Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app Stuhoo, Milldawg12 and thebigweave 3 Quote

Josh Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 We win out, Crean is getting extended. Someone will want Crean. A school where basketball isn't the main sport. That's what I'm saying! We need somebody to want him. At this point it's clear that IU doesn't, we need a sucker to come along and bite. Let's flash fool's gold at them instead of a fresh turd.FIRE HIM!

There's just not much to go in with his track record either way; he had a losing record overall, but IPFW had a better record each year he was there and that is not an easy place to recruit to. I'd like to see more from him at a mid-major or so. VO5 1 Quote

We all know how the last Izzo assistant turned out for us, you know the one with 609 pages of content on why he should be fired Hoosier_roots and Milldawg12 2 Quote

Especially one that played for one of the best coaches ever? Crean may be one of the few, and he's a guy that didn't play at a high level. Like I said though, I'd prefer to see more of Fife at a mid-major; at this moment I wouldn't want him as head coach. VO5, AZ Hoosier, Tom White and 3 others 6 Quote

Popular Post IUHAHN81 Posted February 28, 2017 Popular Post Posted February 28, 2017 I'm so hyped up on the THOUGHT of Billy D coming that if we land someone else (even a good coach) I'm gonna feel bummed.

Hovadipo Posted February 28, 2017 Posted February 28, 2017 I've been conducting the Archie train since 2013-14...and I'm back to leaning toward him being the top candidate on my list. Just thinking about the possibility of having a guy around here winning games for 20+ years is an amazing thought. As great as Donovan is, we have no idea how long he'd be around. 10-15 years MAX and that's if he doesn't want to move on if another place opens up. I'd be thrilled with either hire, but Archie might be my #1. Donovan and Bennett are 1B and 1C. Maybe Archie could bring my guy Kostas Antetokounmpo along with him.
