It's also thought by some that McDermott would take the job but there hasn't really been contact between IU and him/his agent.

Problem is that's according to who?  All of this is conjecture.

When two schools with questionable pasts (Kentucky and Louisville) passed on guys like Beard and Wade last year, it tells me something. Neither are coming here. Period.

Wouldn’t Wade’s show cause have been a bigger deal last cycle than this cycle? Could be a reason why neither hired him then. I agree neither is coming here, which is why we’ll likely be right back here 3-4 years from now.

Kentucky and Louisville both passed on him less than 12 months ago... so... that ain't nothing.

They didn't pass they just didn't hire him. There's a difference.

Izzo covered up sexual assault, bo Ryan was banging a young Wisconsin university employee, pitino hired hookers and had tons of other problems, pearl, self,  and coach cal got in trouble for recruiting violations. But god forbid Indiana hire a coach that isn’t a saint 

We hired Sampson.

Edit: And Kevin Wilson.  Well-known drinker.

And that’s why we have been irrelevant. Most coaches have baggage but other schools don’t seem to mind. But for some reason Indiana wants to hire a preacher instead of a ball coach 

Wade knowingly and intentionally broke the NCAA rules. When he got caught, he compounded the problem by lying. This last part is what earned him the show cause, just like Sampson. It really makes one question his morals and ability to make ethical decisions. Yes, what he did is now allowed but what's to say he won't break some other rule which he deems inconvenient?

I wouldn't have a problem with it if IU were to hire him but I can totally understand why they won't.

Just hire beard and let’s win for the next 20 years. Idk what’s so hard about this. Indiana has to act like it’s better than everybody else and that’s why we have sucked this whole century 

Exactly……

We tried it with Kelvin Sampson... how did that turn out?

It's what the peegs crew say about McDermott. It's safe to say that while they don't have the best info, they're certainly more informed than Joe Schmoe on a message board.
