Welcome Coach Miller

[Stuhoo 80,782]

My Dayton friend says that everything about Dayton is the only thing that held back Archie's recruiting, and that he will kill it at IU.
Hope he's right; makes sense to me.

[Miller'sTheMan 1,652]

Neither Dayton nor Wichita State deserved to go home on the first weekend. Dayton got pretty screwed with their draw.

Also, while we can talk about Archie's last of consistent impressive tourney success, the fact is he's taken a program that was used to going to the tournament every once in a while and taken them to 4 straight NCAA tournaments including an elite 8. (4 tournament appearances over 4 years, Dayton had been rewarded with 4 total appearances over the last 8 years before he got there). That's a solid body of work anyway you slice it. 

I know some people have concerns about his recruiting, but it's a lot easier to attract talented players to IU than it is to Dayton.

Then if he wants to gain any credibility back, he needs to name his source, and make an apology.  In IU circles, he stepped all over himself in a big way.  He probably should have double and triple checked the source, before making the type of claim he made, and then when the info started coming out about Donovan being at practice, should have either gone silent, or given up some kind of proof.  

I've never met Justin, and he could be a really good guy, but as a reporter........ 

You don't name your source. Especially when the source is this individual. Sure fire way to alienate yourself from them.

So...from what i have read so far on here is that most are ok with his defense, but no so impressed with his offense and recruiting.  This means that we will from losing games in the 70s-80s to losing games in the 50s-60s with the same recruits that Crean could pull.  Great...can't wait for that.

In this case, your source made you jump the shark.   It is a tough decision, but one source, or my living?  I guess I would burn the source, or find a new way to make a buck.  

It isn't so much the getting the info wrong, it was steadfast way he kept going, even when it was shown the source was wrong.

Maybe Scoochie could be an IU grad transfer.

At least our SOS might go up since we should be able to get Arizona on the schedule.

Other than the fact that he had a lot of success when he was at Arizona recruiting, but that doesn't count right? He is lauded as a good recruiter by a bunch of analysts.

Keion Brooks!

Keion Brooks!

He should probably watch Henry from Ben Davis as well. He is a junior and I foresee his recruitment picking up his senior year

I love the online community and I love fellow IU fans, but half of what I'm reading on these boards is why I haven't been as active here the last two years. I swear I don't know who took a wizz in your cheerios, but some of the people here need to rethink their outlook. It's one thing to have a conversation about what you think we could do better and another to just be miserable. Stop killing our boards with your negativity it makes it so much more difficult to have conversations on here when half of you sound like eeyore.

It could count...do you know names of who he scored while there?

Let me look, I believe in the assembly call podcast they ran through the list of people he was directly responsible for

If anyone is on scout Snow just came out with a good article detailing his recruiting history. Would be an easy place to get some names.

So far I've yet to hear the first national "expert" bemoan our hire.  Everything I've seen has been a very favorable reaction.  And this from a former Hoosier
