I’d love for you to be right. However, I don’t think the athletic department would go into the effort to create these false narratives. If it was done, Dolson could legitimately not do a think until it was ready to be announced.
I’d put my money on McCollum with all of the smoke surrounding him.

But what has Dolson done? Answered a question about someone he interviewed?

I think if Rabby is saying there’s a ton of smoke behind McCollum then that’s likely the case. He doesn’t gamble much with this stuff.

An update on would-be hires of weeks past:

Happy enough that it doesn't seem to be Drew.

McDermott isn't looking too good.

Otz got got.

Buzz too.

Beard pulled out a win.

Schertz's squad looked good.

So did the Pitinos.

Lot of action this time of year!

Rabby: I will follow up with this: I'm not gonna get over my skis just yet. I think things are moving along the path, but I don't think anything is set in stone at this point in time.

176 characters saying nothing 

Does the IU Media School have a class in vague nonsense?

Ya know , on the other hand….Iowa gig would look much better to a guy like McCollum IF he wanted to hit the ground running with a serviceable roster of returning players and hot recruits coming in. That would be the easiest way for him to move up. I wonder if the DeVries talk is just a smokescreen for bringing in BM?  Just my thoughts.

That is total garbage about McCollum needing coordinators. He has been a HC for 15 years and basketball isn't that hard so if you can coach you can do it at any level. Also John Beilein hired an assistant to take over his defense because their defense wasn't good. So if a great coach like that hires a coordinator so to me that isn't a bad thing.

What he would need some help with is the NIL and the portal which is why you need to hire a GM. I would say that no matter who the coach is because it is to much work for the HC.

However, Rabby has to start gambling at some point. He's got to show his subscribers that he "knows" something. With how quite things have been in this search, he's probably feeling the heat.

Yup. Done a good bit of research.

In this day and age? You can’t teach a great recruiter how to coach. But if you find a great coach that doesn’t know how to recruit? You can buy that coach a roster.

I’m not sure I agree with that.

Which path is that? McCollum?

If we go mid major and lose out on McC to Iowa I will enjoy the meltdown. Hell, who am I kidding…I will participate too

Fran will be dismissed from the program tonight if not tomorrow. 
Ben McCollum will be the #1 candidate. 

Goodman will tweet it to rub it in the face of IU fans...guaranteed.

 

It was a nothing burger from Ben’s agent to Goodman to get Iowa to make a move ASAP.

Still think an out of left field candidate is totally possible. 

It’s not over, we’re just getting started.

So I guess the UK job is no longer attractive since they got turned down by top coaches and settled for Pope who.had never won a tournament game.

That's why I am admitting that I don't understand the current college basketball landscape. I'm admitting it's a trend that I don't understand. But I do believe what I said as far as what it communicates to me as a fan and the program I follow.

To me these coaches can get paid anywhere and why mess with happiness and winning if you are winning where you are at.
