Players, coaches and fans want to wait another 3 weeks to watch, play or coach a team that they probably couldn't wait to be done with? I'm sure the ratings will be stellar. Starting at center for Indiana is 6' 5" Jordan Rayford. And at PG is some guy named Craig that IU found at the upstairs pub last night. We should send the intramural champions. rcbowla, thebigweave, Indynorthsider and 3 others 3 3

coonhounds Posted March 13 Posted March 13 This hire better be brad cause I fear almost anyone else we hire will be bad. I am officially doom and gloom until I see a reason not to be. We need a splash hire for instant juice. A reason to pack the hall for hoosier hysteria.

Popular Post Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 13 Popular Post Posted March 13 27 minutes ago, PartyintheVillas said: If Brownell took Indiana to the elite 8 last year and had them in the top 10 this year, how would you feel? I'm not saying I would be doing cartwheels for BB, I definitely would not, but if we're comparing Brownell, Collins, etc. You don't have to squint to see the case for Brownell the past 2 seasons. Which Brownell is the real Brownell? The guy who went to the tournament 3 times in his first 13 seasons and teetered on and off the hot seat, or the guy from the past two seasons? How much has he benefited from the ACC becoming a weak conference? Sure Clemson isn’t a basketball Mecca, but it’s not Siberia, and it doesn’t have Northwestern’s Ivy League admission standards. His results have been very mediocre and outside of the past two seasons hasn’t shown an ability to elevate a program. I’d much rather take a flier on Collins or a risk on McCollum than go with Brownell. thebigweave, SlammySammy, go iu bb and 5 others 7 1

Home Jersey Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Would be hilarious for so much thought and care going into making Woody’s exit as graceful as possible, only for them to be forced to play in the Crown tournament basically a month after the season is over. And consequently end up announcing the next coach before he is actually off the sidelines lol. Don’t see how that tournament can possibly take place logistically but I’m sure people much smarter than me figured it out…. go iu bb 1

I love this but ready for it to be over. #1. You need fewer friends. #2. If a deal has been done since ~March 1, it has to be a current non-coach. Contracts can be discussed, but an actual contract couldn’t be “done” while a coach is still under contract with another school. #3. How was Shaka interviewed last week if May and Drew couldn’t get interviews earlier because of a done deal? #4. May’s extension has always led me to believe something was already baked in for the IU job. maxwell, JustWinBaby, FWA-EVV and 1 other 4

Old Friend Posted March 13 Posted March 13 4 hours ago, AH1971 said: Wade and Cignetti actually have very similar demeanors and levels of arrogance and cockiness to them. I love coaches with this kind of attitude. There's a ton of people (outside IU of course) who don't care for Curt Cignetti because of this. Watch the documentary. Not at all the same. Cignetti's arrogant. Wade's an a$$hole. Doctor Jones, Ryno6284, Rusty Shackleford and 3 others 6
