Wasn’t it noted earlier in the thread that it typically takes two business days from the players request for them to officially be in the portal? So we’d find out if anyone is hitting the portal tomorrow in all likelihood, unless they choose to announce it themselves sooner

The schools have to process the portal request within two days. So it can take two days but I don't know how typical that is. I would guess it's actually unusual. There is also nothing stopping players who are entering the portal to make the info public themselves.

I'm not a flight tracking guy, this was just sent to me and figured I'd share it to let those that know what they're looking for decipher

Galen Clavio made a good point that nobody has entered the portal yet.

I was shocked we didn't see any names yesterday and am more surprised there haven't been any names today.

I don't think Dolson gave the players a name but one explanation is that he gave them enough to hold off until it's announced.

Or maybe said, we think you’ll like the new coach. If you don’t want to wait, go into the portal. But your time here is done. And you won’t be able to say you were coached by Jay Wright.

Yup, fair point. Someone mentioned Tucker may have been upset about Rabby’s tweet because of the possibility he was using staying at IU as leverage in NIL negotiations. I think there’s just so many unknowns it’s hard to connect the dots with any real certainty IMO.

Or... others could have done research on DeVries and come up with their own conclusions. Why didn't he play more P5 teams in the regular season? 

His record against P5 teams was 2-7 in his last 5 years. 

B- hire, leadoff single

 

maybe that is the best we can do

Prime Rickey Henderson might be able to leg it into a double....maybe, but it'd be close.

Found the mystery candidate.

If i am devries no way I am taking the iu job. He doesn't have the overall fan support. A year similar to the one he just had will get him so much heat he will be ready to leave bloomington next march. No way I would want that.

No it wont.  Woodson did not have so much heat after year one.

I'm a little surprised he hasn't yet.  I know things went really poorly at Georgia but he's a big name that has had success.  Would think at least a good mid-major would be excited to hire him.  I actually think he does a good job during studio coverage for ESPN.

I said earlier this isn’t happening. Buzz is currently traveling to get ready for the tournament.

Because he knows who it is or because he just likes surprises?

Yup… If you want the limelight, IU is better. If you want to focus on basketball and doing your thing, Iowa is probably the choice for you. If you don’t want the limelight, you shouldn’t be at Indiana… but at a certain point, I think fans might want to consider why our support doesn’t seem to be a draw / positive for coaches… even when we can pay more and have more NIL. I don’t blame the fanbase for the past 25 years but at a certain point perception also becomes reality. We will learn a lot about how coaches think of IU based on who the hire is…

I have thought about this some and it is just speculation, but I wonder if some of it isn’t Bloomington. It has to be about the smallest B1G town. When you’re talking about moving your family they are probably thinking about restaurants, schools, nightlife, shopping , etc…

Bloomington is really small and insular compared to a lot of other places. It takes the right fit. Reportedly Woodys wife spent most of her time in Atlanta.

are you trying to convince us Iowa is a better job than Indiana? 

Not necessarily a better job, but a better program at this juncture.
