After reading all these nation guys calling Donovan a "pipe dream" for us, I'm not buying it.  I doubted Glass when it came to firing Crean and he proved me wrong.  I fully trust he is gonna do EXACTLY THAT.  Bring in someone that the media guys think is a pipe dream.  He is on a mission with this task.  Bank on it!


I think him being such a fan of IU basketball really helps. He now has a chance to decide the fate of his favorite team.

Sure there are rumors of him being able to hire Donovan or Stevens years ago, we will never know. Tom Crean had his chances the past five years and Fred gave him time. This was the final straw. From beating two #1's to this. It was time.

Stevens
Donovan
White
Holtmann
Archie
Collins

Let's be honest Billy, Steve or anyone else that says they don't have any interest besides maybe Stevens is more than likely lying. How many times do we here coaches at things like they did and a week later they are coaching someplace else. Let's be honest almost everyone in the coaching world has a price. If you are willing to pay it then you have your new coach.

I heard from a kid a couple years ago that was being recruited by several power 5 schools including IU that the rumor was that in Stevens initial contract with the Celtics he had an opt out clause just for Indiana because it was his dream job at the time. Just curious if anyone else had ever heard this?

I'm worried it's going to be Dane. I mentioned this a month ago, maybe in 20 years. Not right now.

Let him prove himself

Do you really think that Glass would fire a guy who won the B1G, has been to a final four, and is owed 4 million bucks...to hire an assistant off someone's bench who in his only head coaching experience at a small college had a very mediocre record? I loved Fife when he played for Indiana but I just don't see that happening.

Tea leaves and hand writing on the wall point to Steve Alford. Interesting comments by him in the Star. Also, interesting to note that the Star reports his mention of Faith/God and the espn-pc report does not. Just sayin'......

"While im here" why say that if you have no interest in leaving OKC


Because most coaches realize that their hiring starts the countdown to when they are let go. Very few get lifetime jobs.

I think people are reading way too much into what he said, or did not say.

That is true but in the extension Brad got this offseason, it was removed all together.
