I'm done listening to sources lol. They'll probably know the day it happens or maybe even the day before. Way too wishy washy for my liking, which probably means they're adding their own thoughts to each post

Here's what I believe: 

No one knows a damn thing and I need to get back to work. Time for a break from ever changing rumor mill. I mean we hear Geno Auriemma's name last night. I mean, come on.

Here's a question that ran through my head last night: How would you compare Alford at IU versus Painter at PU?  (Both are former players and experienced coaches, with modest success in the NCAA tourney).


Painter does not have all the baggage that Alford will bring. Also, Painter sat under Keady for a number of years and was groomed to be the next PUke coach.

Alford has left a trail of bad ju-ju in his wake. Alford has pretty much groomed himself.

I'd take Painter in a heartbeat over Alford.

Funny how things change in a day. By this time yesterday, there were posters on this board and others coming out of the woodwork with rumors about Billy Donovan being IU's new coach.

Give me Bennett.. His teams play hard nosed basketball and you can tell they are very well coached with a game plan coming into every game. Unlike our most recent regime.

I would take Bennett in a heartbeat but still feel it's Donovan.

0708 did waver on Crean getting canned fwiw

I'm just waiting to see what Mile says...

Hickory too, as he never fully committed to Donovan coming in the first place. 

Mile has been quiet today and Hickory is on vacation.

Mile said Hickory told him he was sitting on something big just a few days ago.

If it helps keep the candle burning, there's a guy on Peegs premium board that swears that Donovan's wife was in Bloomington looking for real estate.  This was posted today at 11:25 AM.  Personally, I remain unconvinced, but I'm just throwing it out there for public consumption.
