So if we are down to 4 according to some (excluding Stevens for this conversation, and for some odd reason feel compelled to leave off Turgeon as well…..)  McDermott, Wade, McCollum, and Brownell, what is everyone’s preference here? They all bring something different, so I would be curious on what posters are thinking would be best for IU out of the group I listed. 
 

**I’m not saying it’s actually down to those 4, but after today, just going off of some generalizations.**

Wade, McDermott, McCollum…….Brownell

CurryHicks breaking news was Virginia related. (Shaka Smart potentially interested in Virginia)

He must have Trilly discord.  That was discussed last night or the night before over there

No way this is true right… is this the kicking and screaming game right?

100% false. Woodson ain’t steppin down. He was fired.

Does anybody have Dolson’s cell number? I going to put my 401(k) on PatKnight. I’m hoping to get him to cooperate.

If this actually happened. One one think the university would of had a press release saying the stalking and threats were being investigated and turned over to the Police. The university would of condemned that type of behavior. 

I actually have no idea if they would do that. But it sounds good. IU employees chime in!!

Yep... would be a police matter... and would not affect his employment status... is he quitting to stay home and guard them? LOL

He was convinced to step down. a proxy firing, but he did technically do it himself

Yeah, I call BS... Dolson should have burned it to the ground... kicked his butt out in February so he could tend to these "threats". 

You gotta take it easy with "calling BS" around here my guy

I can’t imagine him making the statement ‘maybe I’m stepping down too soon’ in those circumstances.

True.  But nobody has said Marquettes  after him like they did Virginia.

Christian Watford continues to campaign for Wade to IU on Twitter. Posted about it again today. Disappointed in Christian. He’s of the generation who should absolutely know better.

If choosing between the 4 I would take Will Wade because I think he would take the most advantage of our resources and handle the NIL landscape best.  McDermott is a good Xs and Os guy and McCollum is high risk high reward.  I want no part of Brownell and if he is hired would have to think we missed on several other candidates

Oh so he is not getting his buy out paid out in full immediately?

It's got 1,600 views right now so I'm not sweating it. Posting it on this board probably doubled the views lol. 

People are gonna spout off stupid **** like this about rival schools all the time... a troll in Louisville? Shocking

The media has been dragging the whole Woodson farewell tour, which I didn't realize he qualifies for...

I assume serious people who this would have any relevance toward would easily confirm it's BS and be unphased.

They need to announce a coach ASAP, its getting torturous 

What seems most telling is he says ‘rumors’ and not ‘a source’.

Think they came to an agreement there. He wanted to just quit and be done at the time but they worked something out
