The NCAA is equal parts incompetent and corrupt, bit I'm sorry if a politician has enough time for this them they shouldn't have their job.

 

You're saying they shouldn't have time. I'm saying I want Mike Braun behind a microphone by day's end!

All - Please read and act accordingly:

Do not throw personal insults at people you disagree with, and if someone does so? Expect the mods to handle the situation. So if it happens, do not repost the offending post with an equally offending response.

1. First step for off-rules posts? Hidden.
2. Second step? Official warning point plus direct message from mods.
3. Finally? Banned.

This process is designed to keep the board relatively readable and on-topic.

Examples?

• Acceptable: "Your post is terrible because..."
• Unacceptable: "You smell like dead fish and type funny and suck and I haaaaate you!"

Thanks - the mods.

And there is the risk.  I think a lot of people expect a Dusty May style turn around.  Dusty at least had D1 experience and a FF4 run.  

It's scary the amount of people who seem convinced he would kill it here because he won at d2 and they are impressed the way he talks about x and o's. The fishbowl could swallow him up in two seconds and I'd love to hear the excuses at that point.

That’s why I think Dolson actually had Matta ready to go and QB overruled him.   
 
Anyway, sounds like QB is out of the picture on this one.  

Why even have an AD is they cannot do their own job.

Yeah, that'd be malpractice to not have an idea. You could be right, McCollum could have a dream of being a Hawkeye legend, but then again you'd think Btown boy Dusty May would have the same dream. 

I'm still 5% in the camp that Dusty is coming to IU at seasons end - because that's what I want to believe. I also believe that Brad Steven is IU's next head coach. 

Cast a wide net as the wiseman says 

May accepting the revised contract at Michigan made me think IU already had their guy.  
 

The other side of that is the argument that Mays family is still around town.  And if didnt end well at IU for May, a lot of lives could be affected.

What if I said someone smelled like a fish, but the fish is not dead?

I’d say it’s going to be a lot longer till we find out. Unfortunately the names media has been throwing out lately are probably some of the ones we are targeting.   It sucks, unless we find a diamond in the rough.

No way they take Devries over the golden boy. That's beyond dumb.

Personally I do not think it is fair to group RTZ and Chris with Isaac.  They are clearly not the same.  Everyone needs to take a deep breath around here.  This thing still has some flight time left before we come to some clarity.  

It is a shame so many posters on this board, many regulars along with some newbies have taken to attack and demean @Chris007, @RoadToZion, @JerryYeagley23 .  "oh we dont like being trolled" "dont tell us stuff that might not turn out to be true" ...If you have been paying attention Chris has said so many times that if he were to guess if it were BS it would be less than 50%.  Even yesterday he was questioning how "homerun" was defined.  RTZ has not changed his position yet nor has JY.  The RTZ comment it is dead, then the undertaker plus Tony,Toni...post on the bunt could mean they pivoted to a different big hire.  

The thing is, anyone better than a risinig star as a coach would be on par with what our peers have done over the last decade.  Have they suggested it is a bigger fish, sure.  Is it still possible, sure.  Could it be a swing and a miss, sure, but so many of you get personal with the attacks on people on here that are our community/friends.

who is golden boy? 

[iu eyedoc]

Listening to Fife on Dakich for 2 minutes.

Dackich: Did you get some ice cream?

Fife: Yeah the one with peanut butter in it. I heard your weight loss commercial.

 

Fife: I haven't watched Florida. I can't name a player on their team. I like Duke but not as much as others. Who's that player on their team?

Dakich:Cooper Cupp.

Fife: Uhhh.

 

 

Really?

Comparing Archie’s resume prior to IU vs McCollums, which one do you like better?

I do too, but my money is on Collins!

Saw an article where Collins was pissed about the way they were treated in Indy during the tournament as they had no air conitioning in the hotel.His demeanor seems to be changing in regards to his job.

I say if not McCollum, come on down to btown, we have air conditioning and other resources you'll never have in Evanston.

BM isn’t my favorite candidate either but you have 0 evidence he won’t work out until he actually coaches.
