Thanks a lot Ballo like we need this. If I buy you a beer from the Upstairs Pub will you retract?

You suddenly have the power to get rid of either Greg Doyle or The Hoosier Hysterics which are you picking ?

In a vacuum I think Wade could do amazing things at IU. He could win big. 

The problem is, a faction of the IU fanbase and media would never let it happen. They'd never allow him to do his job without noise and interference from day 1. 

I'm not even necessarily saying that part of the media and fanbase are completely wrong, just saying they'd make Wade's job infinitely more difficult from the jump. 

It would maybe be a no-win situation.

I specifically recall Eric saying he would be shocked if Cronin had any interest in IU. Maybe I’m mistaken but pretty sure not. 

No, that is not correct. He was openly pushing for Cronin.

I think the “IU admin is unique” argument is overplayed from both sides — there are some historic anomalies related to singular leaders we all know (Brand, McRobbie, etc.) but those folks are gone. M

Every admin is unique but other universities are bureaucratic and have a breadth of stakeholders who are only somewhat aligned.

KwaC is not the only person around here w/higher ed experience. Some of us even have experience with multiple institutions ;)

Purdoyle 200% and I can't stand HH (really Eric, Ward is just a prop). Funny enough, that tweet is really a mellow take for his d-bag standards.
HH is a pod you can ignore, Purdoyle in his role is a horsefly that buzzes around you and you always just miss swatting away.

To expand on my answer: Doyel is annoying but ALSO just a classic newspaper sports section columnist. If you banish Doyel he gets replaced with someone very similar. 

HH are uniquely bad and if they weren’t in the IU media ecosystem someone else would probably step into the one beneficial role they’ve played, access interviewing, without all the bad things they’ve brought.

Quick clarification on Eric and Mic.

Initially Eric stated Mic would have interest and thought we could get him.

Recently Eric has stated that Mic isn't even a candidate and despite what we hear at press conferences Mic does like LA.

This should set off a few dominos

[Rusty Shackleford 838]

Fran is OUT. Will it be DeVries or McCollum at Iowa?

[pumpfake 4,499]

It's 2:00 and we haven't had a Tony/i/e ambiguous photo yet.

So, I present to one and all this crytic image for consideration:

 

[ceast11 258]

Now that Fran is officially out at Iowa. Where do they go? Does McCollum pursue relocation to Iowa City? Do we get stuck with Brownell?

Someone give us some good news!!!
