In a single game matchup, where he has a few days to get all jacked up on Diet Coke, clap his hands raw and blow a few gaskets trying to fire up his players? Definitely possible. 

 

Then, they would lose to Penn State or Rutgers. It's what Crean does.

Or Nebraska or IPFW.  The IPFW loss still stings.

And so it begins.

Verbal Commits‏ @VerbalCommits

2018 Versailles (OH)/Ohio State commit F Justin Ahrens is reopening his recruitment.

 

Corey Evans‏ @coreyevans_10  29

Ahrens is the younger brother of Michigan State wing Kyle Ahrens; is one of the top shot making wings in the Midwest

Archie should definitely look into this kid. He isn't overly flashy and probably won't contribute as a freshman, but his shooting is top notch and he is surprisingly athletic - not to mention we have many scholarships so adding a four year player is more than okay. For those interested, his brother plays for MSU, and they consistently train with Luke Kennard

As does the Eastern Washington loss. At least EWU made the tournament that year (correct me if I'm wrong).

I'd repressed that one, until now.  Thanks.

You just know that Matta will at the very least call Archie.

He got fired, correct? If somebody fired me, I sure wouldn't be recommending them to anyone.

[schoosier]

Their AD said it was directly related to recruiting which makes me think Matta not being able to physically do it. Big man U finally dried up and even his confidant Knight couldnt help him. Matta always was classy winning(mostly) and losing and I wish him better health soon. Hope he can get back one day.

Lol.

OSU is in a tough spot. Marta's health has led that program to being pretty devoid of talent. It's gonna require a bit of a rebuild. No coach currently established is gonna want to do that at a football school.  

They are going to have to get an up and comer but honestly all the best up and comers that we're going to leave their school have probably already left. 

Id roll with an interim for a year rather than make a rash decision like hiring Crean.

I've read that Larry Brown is coaching 2017 USA East Coast Team – D1Vision.  I'll bet he'd take the job.  

[Uspshoosier]

My timing for this house sale, well [emoji15]. But we are moving to NKY. Love Xavier! Now, about that house we have to sell... any takers?
@coach Chris Mack.

Fred Hoiberg being mentioned as a 'real' candidate for the OSU job.  I guess this is as opposed to being a 'fake' candidate.

I'd be happy with that. I personally don't think he's an upgrade, wouldn't feel like OSU would be a B1G force to reckon with consistently.

I'm still just waiting for all these "sports" experts to apologize to IU fans for saying how crazy we were to get rid of Crean when he's never brought up as a candidate for any of these other programs that had opening, outside of the "sports" "experts".

[Alford Bailey]

Timing is odd on this one. Makes me think something changed since the end of the season.

Pretty sure Crean is interested and also pretty sure OSU aint that dumb.

They don't want us to be successful. *DJ Khaled voice*

Starting to see rumors that Creighton is prepared for McDermott to leave and that Crean is a leading candidate to replace him at Creighton. Just rumors floating around the World Wide Web, but Creighton could actually be a good fit for him there. Have a good season every now and then, never expected to go on deep runs.
