And: Scene.

Anyway, any new chatter recently as to where his head (or his dad’s) might be in regards to transfer destination?

If he is going to leave, hope he ends up at ND, Butler, or Ball State.At least with those teams, I could continue to cheer a bit for him.

I saw some mention somewhere (can't remember exactly where) that indicated he might narrow his choices -- whatever they are -- and have some finalists this past week. 

But I haven't seen anything else backing that up, or advancing that. I don't believe he's tweeted anything since his farewell to the pinstripe pants and the Kelly School of  Business.

Apparently going to Arkansas, per Brian Snow. Musselman is a flat out closer with transfers.

Strong choice. Hope he lights up Kentucky for 30.

Agree. I like that system and pace a lot for him.

Do we play Arkansas again or is our contract finished?

I see the news is out, but here it is from Justin himself ...

That’s should be a good change of pace and conference officiating will play better to his game imo.

Didn't think he'd head to the $EC but that conference suits him well.  Wish nothing but the best for him in basketball and life.  Interesting choice of pics...

Good choice in Arkansas. They could be decent and NCAA tourney bound.

Will certainly follow his season this year. Good luck young fella.

Interesting choice for sure. Glad it’s not in conference.

Good move for Justin. Musselman is a good coach--probably better than Archie--and his style of play for his teams is better suited to Justin's strengths. Good luck to him. I'm glad we're not scheduled to play Arkansas again.

Ehhh. Ask many Arkansas fans and you’ll find some bad opinions on Mussleman. He’s a high energy coach similar to Crean, wouldn’t say he’s a better coach than Archie at this point.

Musselman had a decent first year with Arkansas last season (20-12) with not much talent left by his predecessor (better than Archie's first year at IU). He turned Nevada into a winning program before moving to Arkansas. More important for Justin Smith is Musselman's style of play which as I say is a better fit for Justin.  We'll see. I'm rooting for a good year for both IU and Justin.

Sadly, this is probably an upgrade for him.
