I've seen a couple people say that Dayton fans are pissed they're losing their coach -- which is a good sign. I've also seen comments from Ohio State fans who are pissed because they were hoping to get him in Columbus once Matta called it quits. 

They were convinced that Ohio State was some kind of special job. You'd be second fiddle to Meyer not matter what, and it isn't like they're going to commit the resources to the basketball program like we will.

Looks like he hasn't signed, so no. And if he has signed, he would need Dayton to release him from his LOI if he wanted to come to IU.

It said he was 2016 so he was at Dayton this past year

I'm torn between giving him a chance and pulling my hair out. I really had my hopes up for Donovan. Archie had been talked about but never was a reality for me. He's not the worst but imo certainly not the best. I just hope we didn't rush into this decision. Most especially I hope that we didn't miss out on Billy and end up seeing him on the sidelines at UofL. I guess we just have to hope for the best.

This is the exact scenario I've been posting about for a couple days. Someone here were so hell bent to believe that Donavon was the hire, they are having a huge letdown. Therefore , they can't understand this hire.

The world doesn't work the way you're suggesting.  It's a theory.  It's the way liberal politicians sell things.  This is how it SHOULD be, so therefore it's correct.   No program; and especially IU is going to offer a coach a 3 year deal.  That's just dumb.  Sorry, but it is.  Tom Crean had 3 years left on his deal; and was reaching a point of either cut him or extend him.  A 3 year deal simply is not the way of the world.   I'm not sure others are the ones who don't understand.

Oh I understand completely just I don't agree with you all means I'm an idiot right?


PULL THE TRIGGER!!!!

Dude, you're just so far off base with this whole years of the contract deal. No coach can come in and recruit on a three year contract. He'd be set up to fail from the start.

My stance is disappointment because of expectations. Archie COULD be very good for us. If he can recruit anything like his brother I'll be ecstatic about our chances.

 

Like rebel said, I was just hoping our resources and status could get us our top target (I bet glass was too).

Glass said Archie was on his short list from the beginning, meaning he was not our top choice, clearly.

 

I'm excited to see IU under different direction than Crean but I just hoped we would making a statement hire with much less uncertainty.

 

His first recruiting cycle and season will be telling.

Yeah though i never thought sean muller would happen and marshall sounds like a jerk from alot of posts. Donovan seemed great but a pipe dream mostly.

Yep....I thought one of those guys would have taken the job and about 7m a year. Either that didn't sway them, or IU didn't offer that. I'm glad it's Archie instead of Mack, Holtman, or Bennett.

There's also the people who see an underwhelming resume akin to our last coach and can't understand the hire. Don't lump all us Archie skeptics together.
