HooHooHoo22 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 If Archie is our new coach, I believe hickory Hoosier was right last night when he posted that the new coach could be Donovan OR Archie. I bet he had info about Archie Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Popular Post Hoosier Guy Posted March 25, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 25, 2017 The search shouldn't have gotten past Stevens, Donovan, Archie or Bennett. If it's true with Archie, he got the best college coach available. Good job Stromboli, Deserthoozier, Milldawg12 and 8 others 11 Quote

NCHoosier Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 This will be a good hire peeps. Give him time. As a recent Dayton resident, people loved him and his family. Very connected in the community and did great things with what they had. With IU's resources he will have us competing soon. Things are looking up! Milldawg12, A.j. Nigh and Deserthoozier 3 Quote

Popular Post Dalton26 Posted March 25, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 25, 2017 Anyone not named Stevens or Donovan was going to upset people so I'm not really that worried about most people's reactions. Give it time and then make your assumptions but to say things like "our elite status is gone" or "we'll be mediocre forever" is just flat out stupidity. I'm baffled by a fan base who defended Crean for years but won't even give Archie 1 day? Give me a break.

Jeff_Boy_Ardee Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 The Donovan effect. I'm pretty sure Archie was pretty high on many people's list until we started hearing Donovan might actually be plausible, now all of a sudden everyone hates Archie?Is he a big name with an amazing track record, no. But he is young has shown some success and knowledge of the game. He has had teams where he's had to adapt and change his play, something we never saw in 9 years. I think he has the potential to do great things. Is he risky, most likely given that he's still at Dayton and doesn't have a resume at big time programs, but we've seen a lot of mid major coaches with similar resumes do great things. Yes we've seen them not do so well either. I have to believe Donovan was contacted and we have it our best try, and if we end up with Archie then he just didn't want to leave the NBA. I'll support Archie, and think he could be great given the better resources, better brand name, more financial resources for staff and recruiting budget. I'd rather have someone like Archie that has shown potential over a short time versus an Alford who has a 20 year resume of mediocre. Deserthoozier, pumpfake, GoIU8 and 1 other 4 Quote
