BTW: I know it's the off-season and threads are naturally gonna get off track a bit, but the new assistant coach thread may be the hottest thing currently being discussed, and therefore... Looks like we already have a couple Dakich topics created to dump all these posts... Dakich (1) Dakich (2) Wow Dakich! Dakich Comments Danny Dakich I HATE DAKICH!!!

biteoftheapple Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Someone mentioned Keith Smart. I am curious if his battle with cancer has been successful. It was over 1 year ago that it was announced. HoosierAloha and MemphisHoosier 2 Quote

Let me summarize for you: we have credible information that Mr. Calbert Cheaney may be a prime candidate. Alford Bailey, JaybobHoosier, thebigweave and 2 others 5 Quote

Let me summarize for you: we have credible information that Mr. Calbert Cheaney may be a prime candidate. Love Calbert. He's my favorite all-time Hoosier. He checks a couple boxes -- is an IU guy, so he gets what it's all about and knows the heritage, what it means to be a Hoosier, etc. I know he's been an assistant before, but I think it still remains to be seen actually how good of a coach he is. And how well can he recruit? If he is the choice, hopefully in due time, he'll check those boxes as well. MikeRoberts 1 Quote
mdn82 Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 I understand your point! Let me summarize for you: we have credible information that Mr. Calbert Cheaney may be a prime candidate. Honestly I love Calbert the player and ambassador. I am not sure how I would feel about him as an assistant. His biggest issue always has been family and the grind of the road. At IU he knows more than most a mediocre approach to that role is no bueno. I personally prefer an assistant that can go out and get who we want within the state and elsewhere. Coaches and parents around here would love Calbert, but would a kid? That’s more rhetorical as we truly don’t know. I am hoping of more of a proven commodity.

WayneFleekHoosier Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 Calbert is good by me in the assistant role. Can he be our Santa? 🧐Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Quote
Stuhoo Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 I’m pretty sure Calbert is the only guy we’re considering who can say to a recruit: ”When I was an NBA assistant coach with Golden State for two years, Steph Curry improved quite a bit.” lillurk, Cheaney40, ElectricBoogaloo and 4 others 7 Quote

My thing is how bad does he want to be great in that role? At what cost? It would be a great story if it happened. I think RMK would probably come back for that. I just worry if that work/home life balance is already a concern.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app MemphisHoosier, thebigweave and JaybobHoosier 3 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app I don't think he is in a mental capacity to really feel as he did before. I don't think he's well, and when people get old, they tend to gravitate to their roots, and his roots are near Bloomington. I really don't think it's any more than that. thebigweave, MoyeNeeded and mdn82 2 1 Quote

His doctor and close friend live here (Rink) plus his other close friends Hammel and Bomba all live here. The ranch he was living on there wasn't anything close by for miles.
