Dolson has had 12 months to find the guy. If that's the best he can do consider me not impressed.

Trust me, I am with you on that thought. At the end of the day though, if enough of the big names said no, then there is nothing that can be done except to go after someone that fits what you are looking for.

Dolson can do everything in his power, but if no one wants the job what's he supposed to do?

Kidnap them ofcourse

they thrive on negativity.. Because if the team does well they wont show their faces here..

They only show when **** hits the fan

Right on schedule :)

Everyone on the message board appreciates when posters “share what they hear” in good faith and have a discussion… getting upset at people not believing him then threatening to take his ball and go home is just a hilarious way for a grown man to behave. Not troll-ish or manipulative at all. Yeesh

Disagreements are OK; name calling is not.

I once had inside information and I posted it on a message board. It was back when Mike Davis got fired. I was sitting in Panera in Bloomington and two of Davis' assistants were at the table behind me. Davis still had his job, but they were talking about needing to search for jobs. I thought that was interesting and I posted it on Peegs, but nobody believed me. 

I've learned that if your name is Isaac, more people will believe you...you should have been IsaacConnection...

Named after these guys...

Anyway,

If Devries really is the leader for Iowa then that should start to be leaked…maybe Trilly will hear things

Day 38 of the coaching search.........

Let's hope the wait is worth it. And it's not Brad or bust for me. Just give me somebody with some potential and upside that can get our fanbase excited again. 

It's like its own Lent...

Call Chris Beard!

True but also if you are not willing to take a chance on guys like beard or wade nobody has a right to complain in 4 years if we are doing this all over again. Playing it safe is why we do this every four years.

I didn’t say it was, just posing a question to give people something to talk about instead of going after one another. 

And I'm discussing the topic you brought up here. I didn't say that you said it was impressive. 

[Hornsby]

Call Chris Beard!

Bingo.

If you haters don't enjoy the ride, just go somewhere else. I believe I speak for most everyone on this board when I say we very much enjoy the presence of Chris, JY, AP, RTZ, etc. Are they always right, no. Of course not. But part of the magic of this board is the deep love for IUBB and the hope that we will return to greatness. These insiders or whatever you want to call them help to bring us hope that Dolson & company are doing the right things to position us for success. Quit attacking them or go elsewhere.

So what do you guys think about Chris Beard?

Give me Wade, then give me Beard. But that'll never happen. Sadly

I don't disagree with that either. However, KS put an end to the days of IU going after anyone with a past of any kind. Had we never gone after someone like KS back then, there might be some ability to take a chance on someone now. But I think KS took away the ability to do that and not be smeared in the face for taking a chance on someone a second time.

And people call us crazy!

We gonna fight? lol, jk. 
 

I definitely don’t want Brownell and I don’t think a tournament run helps his overall case as a potential IU coach. I think his coaching record speaks for itself, that his recent run isn’t sustainable.
