Ed Schilling Leaving, Mike Roberts Arriving

Thank you, I can explain why if you need me too

The mods are beyond helpful and got rid of that. You are all good man. You don’t ever need to explain yourself to me. Appreciate what you bring.

Our new assistant coach is Bracey Wright. :)

 

He's bringing the whole  Büyükçekmece Basketbol team with him too!

I just read it on his Twitter feed:

Austin Van Zyl has been offered the position as our new Assistant Coach.

Was that 2002 team your favorite?

Yes, one of them. Was a student then and enjoyed that run to the finals.

Might as well. Player/coach.

Well this team member worked for me in the summers and I can say he's the nicest IU player I've ever met. You probably had a class or two with him or at least saw him around campus. He was very smart. He did not play in any of those games though :-)

That does it. We are modeling after Syracuse.

Why have you been so quiet today??? Have the moving trucks arrived yet?

[mdn82 25,510]

I think player development. He has been credited for getting 3 or 4 players to the NBA in the last so many years. Not bad for a guy at UNCG

Integrity, passion, history of success, buy-in, fit with current coaching staff, in-state connections.

By the way, most recruits and their families are smart; if there's a quality guy on staff they'll notice, and that in and of itself is helpful with recruiting.

Ok I am convinced and on the mike Roberts train. Hope its him

I faxed it in a few minutes ago:)

Now I don’t know what to do with this screen name, I feel like Michael Bolton from Office Space

In all seriousness, you nailed it a while back identifying him as a legit candidate when nobody else was talking about him - nice work

Yeah it’s crazy the educated guesses that come from IU boards. I have been around so many and saw many from other fanbases. I would be willing to bet most fanbases don’t have a clue when put in this situation. I guarantee if this is the route we go Archie consulted the General and all other former bosses. I give the man that. He does what he says and has really went inside out.

Why do you think he talked with RMK about this. I know he played for him but you sound convinced he has and wondered if there were some dots you are connecting that lead to the conclusion and your inside out comment

Underwhelming hire if it’s Mike Roberts . Was expecting someone with major recruiting connections.

He coached under him a season. In these types of things you will reach out to anyone and everyone if you don’t know him personally. I would really be surprised if CAM didn’t.
