I think Fred Glass is trying to create a true Hoosier Hysteria with this coach search.

I am SO relieved Crean is gone but I'm SO anxious we get our guy.

I still think it's just a matter of timing and not repeated no's.

I remain optimistic FG gets a big fish.

I just hope he using the right bait for Donovan.

Ummm, guys... DC is a fantastic, world class place to live and raise a family, especially with lots of money. And bball head coaches make lots and lots and lots of money. Have you guys been to Bethesda, Arlington or Chevy Chase?

 

There's a reason that NBA cities like NYC and LA get free agents instead of Milwaukee and OKC, and cost of living is irrelevant.

 

IU is a better basketball job than Gtown, but it's not because of D.C.

 

We have Mother Bears. Your argument is invalid.

Heard a rumor that the reason Btowninsider went dark on 247 was because his mom caught him staying up too late and his grades were slipping. Can't believe that nobody on 247 could figure out that he was 12. Nobody from New Albany is that connected to Btown@

I can think of somebody pretty darn connected from NA :farting_smiley:

The Cook Hall legacy court is co-named after the family.

I tend to agree with previous posts that if we don't know by the middle of next week, it's got to be someone still coaching. There's too much of an urgency to start recruiting and get everything settled down for it to be something else.

Donovan obviously the dream pick, but I feel like getting Bennett and convincing Fife to come here as assistant would be the best possible outcome. Bennett's playstyle with Fife will make the old people happy. While all the wins they'll be getting will make everyone else happy. If he can get elite guys final fours and maybe championships will come. Bo Ryan has a similar playstyle, only had elite players for 1 year and he won big ten regular season, tournament, and went to national championship game.

This is actually well put. Once Ryan got Dekker and some high 3 star low 4 star even type kids his program took off. Bennett just got a very good class last year but you cant go off of 1 year to judge him off that. If he was getting a few high stars sprinkled with a 5 star then he would be great here. Fife at his side is a sure thing to make coaching a strength against pretty much anyone we would face. Michael Porter put UVA in his top 4 too after backing out from UW. Obviously he is going to Mizzou but telling he added them to his list.

Wouldn't this be a kick in the stonesImageUploadedByBtownBanners1490320662.183148.thumb.jpg.ba3f432995deeb22ba2b231ef7b7a2ed.jpg

Gotlieb said that a week ago. Not happening. If they were only willing to get a coach for 2.5 million 4 is probably the highest they would go now. UCLA makes a lot of money and has the UA deal coming next year but 4 years ago Alford was the highest guy they really went after. Something about them doesnt attract the coaching guys that should be interested.

Is that still moving to a new building?

 

Yeah I think so. I just checked out their Twitter and it looks like they're building the new one now.

If it's done in time for Billy's visit to Btown Fred can slip him the contract papers while he's sidetracked by a nice banana split.

Yea I would doubt that it happens. Things will get interesting the next 2 days. One of Mack and S. Miller will be available after tonight with Alford possibly tomorrow (Let's hope he leads them to a W over pUKe)

Earl Watson is a name that is thrown around right now IF Alford left. If people think UCLA can wait till Watson is done why cant we be patient and wait an extra week for Billy D?
