This should go without saying obviously, but there will be no press conference tomorrow. I’ll be able to take the lid off a bit later in the week. But will say this, anybody providing details right no

I’ve had several PM’s so wanted to drop a quick line to the broader board. Love this group and fully intend to continue to contribute to the community, Im not going anywhere. (Sorry to a few of you) B

So I couldn’t get much from him unfortunately. But, to me that’s a good thing. There’s been pretty much zero chatter, nor leaks for a month about coaches. He said it doesn’t matter that the season is

How is he immediately after games?  How is his coaching/communication style?  More so than a presser.  Those are easy if you win and are impossible if you lose here.  He has won no doubt.  Will it translate?  A lot of questions.  But I think once we get past the McDermott/TJO level we were always going to have exponentially more questions.  Even at that level there would be some.  

He told macasland his offense sucked and was easy to guard! That is badass!

Duke hired a coach who has zero head coaching experience.  And they are number one in the nation.  A good coach can coach no matter the experience. A bad coach can’t even with experience. 

Duke funnels in 5 star recruits. It’s not at all comparable to IU.

Sure.  It's fun to read and hope, but they need to stop making comments like, "Dolson has his guy," or "Done deal," or "It's always been Brad."

Brad Stevens will be the next coach at IU.  Done deal.

 

 

 

So I've been told. 

May I kindly ask what you gain from this?

Never said he can’t win, I’m implying Indiana can’t land the big fish because it’s not just “Indiana’ anymore. 

UNC, UK, UL, Nova, UCONN, UCLAx2, Florida and probably Kansas sooner than later would like a word. Established P5 Coaches with zero personal tie to the school aren’t leaving good jobs for other big jobs. It simply isn’t happening now that everyone can pay players. I’m not saying it doesn’t stink to have reality bite us in the face, but this is the market. It doesn’t speak to what IU is or isn’t as a job.

Scheyer has unreal backing from Nike and gets the pick of the litter. He seems like a competent coach with every advantage known to man.

 

Also recruited kids of this caliber and dealt with the egos and things that accompany big recruits with Coach K for years.

 

If we had Dukes advantages I’d be less worried as our coach could virtually hand pick his starting lineup every season.

We need Tiny to go to the Huntington airport and speak with the Millers and ask them who was on their plane from Boston to Indy lol.  I don’t go to that side of town anymore.

You around Huntington?

Neither. Just something that I noticed. I dont know if it was all of them but I'm perceptive enough to know it was a bunch of them. It's all good, everybody has their own opinions. 

 

Yeah, I don't mean it in a malicious way, but I get a kick out of that info after 2021 and now this coaching search.  A small part of me hopes it's BS, but I also don't want to fall for it.  Fool me once, shame on you.  Fool me twice, shame on me.

This is incredibly naive. Jon is benefiting from the instructor Duke has. Coach K didn't walk away from the program. He is overseeing it--helping Jon, making connections to money people, connections to coaches, other influences and recruits.

No I dont believe that it was malicious at all. I dont know who the coach is going to be,  all I know is that whoever it is they probably will be better than Woodson. I was here for the 21 coaching search and I have to say this one has been far more wild and fun. I honestly just saw the post, and did a double take lol. No issues here

We need to get back to basics! We aren't getting Cooper flaggs, so we need an x and o's coach who can get the most out of the Keith smart's and Steve alford's.

So I've been told. 

I'm still holding out for Stevens.  Maybe I'm a fool, but I want to believe.  I'm so tired of Woodson and company just about anyone would make me happy.  Bennett, McDermott, McCasland, Collins, and McCollum would all be guys that have solid systems that could win at IU with our resources.  If Stevens says no, I would be happy with any of these coaches.  I would root for IU if Beard or Wade was hired, but I just don't see either happening.  Please Brad, don't leave us waiting at the altar.  The nation is watching, we can't be a jilted bride again.
