Archie. Miller. Fired.

If they could get him...man, this place would be rocking. I think there is a better chance in 2021 than in 2017. 

Thats an understatement! I completely agree on the chances being better now. I'd even argue that the timing has never been better.  Fingers crossed!

If we knew we could get Brad, would the announcement of Archie being let go be pushed off until NBA season over or would that not matter and we will still hear about Archie within days? 

This is a good question and one that I have wondered as well.

If you fire him now or in June, his buyout remains the same.  However if you fire him now, you quit paying his salary.  This could save the university almost a million dollars.

Fire him now.

This is the route I think they would go. And quite honestly it would be pretty telling if the position was vacant for awhile. We would all know who they would be getting.

Chris007, do you know if IU even talked to Brad in 2017?  I have heard that Fred Glass kinda zeroed in on Archie from the beginning and we didn't really consider anyone else.  Is that true?

Exactly. I'm not expecting him but like I said if they could get him...this program would be rocking. 
That's how it starts. Next thing you know you start believing we can get him then when the hire comes you are disappointed. Hey I'm all for Brad and I'm all for everyone having hope for it but me personally I'm expecting something else.

Pretty much described 2017. It was Billy D and Brad for me. That Friday when Albers tweeted about Donovan being in Bloomington I thought he was ours. Man did that end his career. I'm expecting someone like Musselman. (I'd take him)

Here's a scenario: AD talks to BS and they come to an agreement to hire him after the Celts season is over.  What, if anything, do you tell CAM?  Keep him in the dark and fire him when there are little or no openings available (and you have to eat the entire buyout), or do you negotiate a decreased buyout and allow him to step down so he can put his name in the ring for any coaching vacancies?

I completely forgot about Albers, LOL!
