Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners I didn't know that either. Calipari's slimy but he knows basketball. Having two top college coaches in his own family that he can turn to is great imo.

Our transition offense under Crean was pretty good, that's what won us games. However, we were limited by it because of our terrible defense and decision making.With Archie as our coach, we should continue to thrive in transition offense even more.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

I'm not sure about his in game decision making or his timeout play calling, haven't watched him enough. I'm a little worried about his offense and his recruiting right now but perhaps that opens up with him being at Indiana now. He needs to get some momentum going this summer.

Bgrimm4 Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I had a good long talk yesterday with a coworker who is originally from Dayton. He follows the the Flyers almost as much as he follows UK. We discussed the possibilities of renewing the UK rivalry, the recruiting Archie has done, and most importantly his basketball IQ. Overall he was pretty upset that Dayton lost him, while also being happy IU landed him. This is coming from a guy, who has found any reason possible, to give me **** for being the only IU fan at work. Like him, I believe the general consensus around the college basketball world, is that they are ready for us to be relevant again. They, like MOST of us, are excited to see Archie make us compete again. Personally, I was a little upset after the announcement like a few others. Although, after spending the entire day reading other coaches opinions, seeing his body of work as a whole, and thinking about where we were just a couple of months ago, I went to bed fairly excited. I firmly believe the only way to go from here is up. That being said, even though I'm going to miss my Belgian Ales, I'm ready to start stocking my fridge with Millers, and enjoying IU basketball again.

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 1) Since Archie is an ex-point guard, I'd love to see him over in Illinois and reel in Mark Smith as his first recruiting coup and send a very loud message. 2) Still haven't heard any reaction from '17 Justin Smith unless I missed it. 3) How many days do we need to hold our breath waiting for possible transfer out annoucements?

He's already reached out to the recruits who backed out when Crean got fired. And I have a gut feeling once the team meets him nobody is going anywhere. waitingon6, Class of '66 Old Fart, theriverpilot and 1 other 4 Quote

Hurryin'Hoosier317 Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 I think that there are some reasons to be positive. Having Knight pretty much ruined our fan base. He is the greatest college coach ever, and because of his character flaws there was never a shot at a smooth transition. Now many of us are left with expectations that no one could meet. If Miller can hold kids accountable for their mistakes on the floor, instill a tough defense and emphasize decision making on offense he will do fine. He is not what glass advertised, but he deserves a fair chance.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using BtownBanners mobile appAgreed 1000%. Archie may not be that "home run" that we were all looking for but he is damn close. At first I was apprehensive of this hire (mostly because my head had been filled with illusions of grandeur thinking that we would get Billy) however most of the mainstream media, commentators and above all Dayton fans have helped me change my opinion. The numbers don't lie, if anything they tell me that he is a good coach. Im willing to give the man a chance, at the very least he is twice if not 3x better than Crean which is good enough for me.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Anyone else surprised Crean hasn't landed anywhere yet? Barely in the gossip mill. Wonder if he can pull off the Georgetown job. He'd take Chuck with him right in his recruiting backyard. Could be a solid match. Really curious to see how Crean's career unfolds.
