Popular Post Walking Boot of Doom Posted March 25, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 25, 2017 boot, i respect you greatly. please tell me why miller is the man for iu? hes's been on my top 10...but....He was below Stevens, Donovan, and Bennett for me. Those were the proven guys who I believe cashed the check Fred wrote when he fired Crean. Out of the group of young guns that have a lot of potential, I actually preferred Mike White over Archie.Things I like about Archie:1) AdjD increased every year since he arrived in Dayton, till this year it regressed slightly from 9 to I believe 412) Young and exciting with potential. Unlike Crean, I don't think we've seen his ceiling, and he has time to learn.3) Comes from a basketball coaching family and played PG at the collegiate level, so he has a strong background and lifetime of exposure. Things I don't like:1) Worried by the AdjO regression while at Dayton. Inconsistent at best, and never put together an elite offense. 2) Potential also equals risk, and nothing he's done before promises any kind of future results. Would have preferred one of the sure fire guys listed above. Overall, I'm excited. This is a positive step forward from a toxic situation with Crean. With Deron and Devonte hopefully back next year, plus any combination of the rest of the team returning, I believe we have a talented team that will do what their new coach has always done: exceed expectations.

GloryDays Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 What I like in this hire the most is the youth.Give him some time and he will get us where we need to be.I really think he's a better coach then his brother.Let him prove themself and not go crazy with extensions until your sure Fred.Welcome aboard Archie! thebigweave 1 Quote
rebelhoosier848891 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 After the initial shock and honestly some disappointment--I have dug into some info on Miller and I am warming up to the hire. High offensive output like Crean but much more emphasis on defense. I think Alber and others had us believing it was Donovan and it takes a while for that to wear off. We almost all agreed it was time to give someone new a chance after Crean and a Miller hire would have been much more popular before all the Donavan hysteria started. Let's give Miller a chance Hoosier Nation. Miller's a good coach and a Hoosier now and will have my support to get us back to greatness. Let's get to work...Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners pumpfake, ALASKA HOOSIER, Milldawg12 and 1 other 4 Quote

I'd believe it too. Quote
