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.**

1. Wade

2. McDermott 

3. McCollum 

4-366. Anyone but Brownell

367. Brownell

6,856. Turgeon

I agree with order here.  But I suggest that Brownell is too high.  Minimum 667.

Good point.  Lets move Brownell down to 998.

Heck ya. I’m pretty new here and have mainly been a Peegs guy to this point.  @IUFB and @ap2345 are my two favorite posters over there.

Several people seem to think it will be then...but not confirmed...

Would be weird to announce a new coach on Monday when the candidates we are hearing about are preparing for a tournament game (and likely IU). 

Unless it is someone currently not coaching…

 

I do think no matter what that Dolson will wait until our season is finished out of respect for the current team and staff. They can wait until the season is done and not take attention away from the guys still playing.

Because he’s a man of the people.
 

Did I contact my Greenwood realtor friend today about this? Yes I did. Did he do any digging on our behalves? No he did not.

More like ex-friend.

Railroaded???????

Coming from a guy who would accept Wade at IU, I have to say calling Wade ‘railroaded’ is waaayyyyy off target.

Perhaps “made an example of” triggers you less? 

[IvanRenkosillegitimatechild]

Not sure if anyone posted this but IF IU actually considered Wade then only the first two bullet points would apply. Stuff his assistants could very easily do. I would totally be down with Wade if he’s Vetted and IU is satisfied with his answers to the hard questions 

[AZ Hoosier]

Only about 1300 posts to catch the FMW thread… we can do this!!!!

I think it's to get some stuff in order before portal opens (march 24th) (obviously only if they aren't coaching in tourney)

He didn’t cooperate with the NCAA because he was being railroaded while guys like Bill Self and Sean Miller got off Scot-free

Bill self literally had an assistant coach on audio offering Zion’s dad a coaching job and a house if Zion committed and not only didn’t he get fired he kept coaching for Kansas

It’s just weird multiple people have said March 17th but that date literally only works if someone is currently not in the NCAA Tournament

And Sean Miller was caught on the same FBI wire tap talking to the same FBI subject (Christian Dawkins) facilitating payments to DeAndre Ayton. But since Will Wade was a mid-30’s, up and comer at a non-basketball school…the NCAA had to bury somebody.

Exactly. Could you imagine being a Drake, Clemson, Creighton, or McNeese State fan excited to find out on Sunday where your team is headed for the tournament and 24 hours later hear your coach is bailing once you lose?

Announcements like that happen after teams are eliminated.
