His Badgers just smoked Cronin's Bruins in the B1GT ... but he seems to have the personality of a door knob ... SlammySammy, tkbbn and RoadRage 2 1

HoosierDaddyK Posted March 14 Posted March 14 4 minutes ago, AZ Hoosier said: So, WQB forced the hire of a former player, long time friend and mediocre NBA coach with no college experience, and there was doubt in the minds of some that it wouldn't end well? C'mon, that is pretty inconceivable ... the odds were incredibly slim that it ended any other way ... and when you factor in the approach that Woodson took to actually doing the job, it left very little doubt that it would end the way that it has. And now we're trying to find a legitimate coach to resolve a 4 year (or 8 year) mess that is the basketball program. I hope there's someone willing and able to do the job... we will hopefully know soon. Agree you didn’t need to be a rocket scientist to see the potential for a mediocre NBA coach to not be super successful in college, but people had been b*tching about “hire an IU guy” since they fired Davis. At least we can finally move past that go iu bb 1

Not one has been successful. Everyone in the world knew it at the time. Everyone of course except the Indiana administration as always. Dumbest people alive. One guy is all it takes for schools to forget all the rest. BYU right now is becoming the blue print for a school like Texas.

I think you might be surprised that many IU fans and friends don’t look at every half of every game and want to fire or extend the coach based on that 20 minutes of play. Most had high hopes for him, especially given all of the previous disappointments, and they’re genuinely sad that it didn’t work out for him and for the University. Not sure why people find that so odd or unbelievable. Rusty Shackleford and Kentuckysucks 1 1

Ron Mexico Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Google AI says the sleeper pick is McCollum. Yesterday it was Otz. Even AI has no clue. It was Pearl yesterday using Bing Copilot. Now it’s back to BM. Shouldn’t be surprising given Goodman’s thank you very little nugget yesterday. Anybody have DeepSeek?

Papacap Posted March 14 Posted March 14 4 minutes ago, JustWinBaby said: Considering that neither is a serious candidate and this is purely hypothetical, Brownell. But for totally different reasons than Beard. Brownell. The vast majority of my IU friends want Beard. No one I know wants Brownell. moyemayhem and FWA-EVV 2

IU Prof Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Don't know if this has already been posted, but Brownell's buyout is over $8 million. I would be shocked if we spent that kind of cash to buy him out. I think you can put that speculation to rest. moyemayhem, IUBtown, sirhoosierlot and 1 other 2 2

Iowa: Devries or McCollum Indiana: May or Stevens Annoying both of those guys are presumed “yes” and Indiana can’t get a guy to come home to lead a storied franchise w/ unlimited resources/support
