[biteoftheapple]

This is the best bio I could locate for Schilling.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Interesting reading.  I'm certainly not enamored with several of the names on the list, but it does make good food for thought and will certainly bring a lot of new discussion to btb.

Kenny Johnson lol.  

I would think Miller is in no hurry to fill the spot unless there's a deadline I don't know of?

I am not enamored either. No way Kenny Johnson is being looked at. Jason Delaney could be a good fit for his in-state connections but that is what they said about Schilling too. Hard time of the year to find an assistant. 

[RaceToTheTop]

I think the list being 13 guys that 'could' be considered is different than a list of 13 that 'are;.  It's fun food for thought but not really likely to be accurate on the actual people being considered.  And a list that lists Kenny Johnson and Dane Fife as potential hires isn't accurate.  As they mention in the same article giving him as a possibility, his next job will be as a head coach.

[Stuhoo]

I would think that this late in the year Kuwik would be a real possibility.

 

[MikeRoberts]

Why do people keep suggesting it’s slim pickings this late in the year as if a coach couldn’t leave another program?

March, July, December... why does it matter?

I’ve heard that Kuwik was like an Offensive Coordinator for Archie at Dayton. Maybe he’s the guy we need.


We need to replace Bruiser Flint too. I really dont think he does anything.

He’s in charge of the front court which I can’t exactly say is a huge problem at the moment. Considering how little help it got from the perimeter

Jim Shannon does a solid job but I wouldn’t call him a good “X and O” guy.

Well #1. Your biased. #2. That is not from me, but an article several years ago quoting numerous HC's around the state. I would say their qualifications  outweigh yours lol.

[rebelhoosier848891]

Heard Bob Knight may be moving back to Bloomington. Maybe there’s a reason —lol. Can you imagine the Board meltdown/explosion if Archie picked Bob as the next assistant!  Epic.  (I THINK I am joking by the way)

Sadly I don’t think he is qualified anymore. He’s a shell of what he used to be

Just watching his manner of walking and his eyes during the last publicized visit, I agree. I recently lost my mother who had Alzheimer's. He appeared to have the same look.

IU needs a first rate recruiter with the ability to bring in players from outside the state.  We haven't signed a player outside of Indiana in two years. This team needs an upgrade in talent and it can't come from within the state alone.

If Ostrom can't do this, why is he on the staff?  Indiana needs a guy who understands and can sell what Indiana is.  Don't care if it's an IU guy or not, but it cannot be a Dayton retread or some guy the Miller's have known for a while.  This needs to be a smart hire...and if it were ME, I'd do everything I could to pry Michael Lewis back to Indiana, but that's one man's opinion.

Arkansas fans told me they were glad Ostrom left. Drexel fans told me they are glad Flint left. It seems to me that these guys might not be too good.

Ostrom was a key recruiter for the last team to repeat as champions and helped Arkansas land a top 10 recruiting class. And has landed us 2 straight Mr Basketballs

Flint was a head coach. Not uncommon a guy is a bad head coach but a great assistant.
