Archie Miller's staff at Indiana will be Bruiser Flint, Tom Ostrom (Dayton) and Ed Schilling (UCLA),

I think more schools will too. Kid is legit, I think he's a top 50 talent.

How about Orlando Antigua as an assistant? He was the top recruiter for Calipari and just got fired as HC at USF. He clearly knows how to navigate the AAU circuit. Could be a homerun type addition as an assistant. Dont know how dirty he is, but Im all for gling into the frey area of recruiting just dont cross the cheating line.

Getting more on the Groce train tbh. Guy could recruit and him and Archie worked together for 2 years

Not sure who CAM will want on his staff - but that's totally his decision.  I hope he's licking his chops at having the resources and budget for recruiting that he'll now have at his disposal.

Please not Schilling (shiver)!   Sure it would be nice to see a former IU player (my personal preference would be Michael Lewis) on the bench but this is Archie's team and he needs to be comfortable with the people he chooses.   We don't want Archie to have to deal with a Roshown McLeod situation.

Whats the dirt on Shilling?

I've mentioned before that from personal experience his character issues are every bit as bad as Alford's.  They are birds of a feather.

Can we hire the New Albany coach as an assistant?

And we could get Romeo Langford out of the deal.

Regardless of what the dirt is or isn't, I think it is very safe to say that we are not going to be poaching any assistant coaches whom are associated with Steve Alford's staff.

[SteelerHoosier]

I'm sure he'll try to get an IU guy on staff, but won't add one unless they fit. I'm sure he'll find one

[Yogi'sBicep]

Hopefully Elston stays & Lyonel goes :)

[Yogi'sBicep]

My last post made me think about how Archie & Lyonel would get along. 

If its true that Archie is all script, no leeway... Lyonel will

A) get off the bench

B) Tone it down by 95 notches 

C) Find a new university

Travis Steele and Dane Fife are my dream guys as lead assistants. I would take Groce too. I wanna see him get some young grinders and start himself a coaching tree. Thatd be nice.

Jared Jeffries is still on my wish list too. Think he would provide fundamentals and development skills. He made a living in the NBA doing the little things and continued to evolve his game to stick around. Please he is highly respected in a lot of basketball areas and would work the state pretty good. I am very excited to see what our staff and roster will look like in the next few weeks.

I like Fife but I don't see him coming. It doesn't make sense for him imo. He's the same age as miller so he is not going to be taking over for him at IU. He's already with a HOF who will be retiring at some point in the next 5 years or so maybe longer. Fife has a better chance at taking over MSU once Izzo leaves, maybe a Bo Ryan departure type scenario. Just doesn't make sense for him.

Now with Anthony Grant named Dayton head coach. Which dayton assistant do we get?

Jefferies is working in the Denver Nuggets front office and has his own tv show. I don't think he would give that up to be an assistant coach.

This offseason has already been crazy so I guess anything is a possibility though

I asked him on twitter when Crean was first fired and he said anytime IU calls I pick up. Said we will see. I know a lot of NBA teams wanted him as a scout as recently as last offseason so you could be right. He is looking to be a GM one day.

John Groce should be our top priority.
