Flight to Dayton this morning. I think it's Archie.

Not a sexy hire. If we hire him, I think that's a bad sign of what everyone thinks of our program.

Yeah I agree, but it seems that the Donovan news seems less and less likely, as well with Steven's.

After Donovan and Steven's I am hoping for Tony Bennett or either of the Miller's. Wouldn't the Bennett and Miller's already have happened by now??

Ugh

Unless they were waiting for a yes or no from Donovan before moving on.
I can't shake the feeling that it could be someone not mentioned.  Parker tries to keep everything quiet and last two hires were out of left field.

Glass knows his job is on the line, he's not going to hire a "no body".

This is terrible. I woke up today to UK making it to the elite 8, and IU still not having a coach.
Going back to sleep and trying this again.

Billly Donovan or Tony Bennett!!!! No one else really sounds that great. Also Mike White will be a good one. I wouldn't mind having him but he probably isn't even on our radar

I would be disappointed.  I'd be willing to give him a chance if he was the 3rd or 4th option but he doesn't do anything for me.  Too small of a track record.

Right now we need proven not potential.

[tyappleg 2,964]

Ugh

Flight is scheduled to come back to Bloomington 9 minutes after landing in Dayton. Almost has to be Archie.

Alford pretty much confirmed Glass reached out to him.

This is getting more worrisome by the day.

Wind is blowing in the Midwest.  Particularly around Dayton...

[Trish 11,505]

If Presser today, it's Archie Miller.

I give it until next Friday for Alford. If we haven't heard a solid rumor or they haven't announced him as the next coach then I have to believe it's Billy. All of the other coaches that are being brought up on this forum have been available and if they haven't made an offer to one of them then they must not be too high on our "want" list. There's only one other coach that IU realistically, in my mind, is/should be looking at, and that's Billy D!

disregard above post....text box was all funky

Anyway....Archie our next coach? That would be very disappointing. Of all the candidates, and after all the lofty talk at the presser last week, Glass is going to hire Archie?? I'm not sure about that.

[Trish 11,505]

Archie was on the west coast on Thursday. One would think he might stay out there for a few days to relax right?

If the hire is Archie then one of you nuts need to kidnap Fred and force him to watch his presser on loop. Now Archie could end up being a dude, but I don't like that gamble right now.

Archie better than Crean..... Barely.

Not impressed.

There are a lot of good coaches.....otherwise they wouldn't be coaching D1 basketball. We don't need a good coach. We need an elite/great coach.
