Fact. But also better overall and in conference. Consider that part equal, record-wise.

But the turmoil of the Indiana program and the job that goes with it is the primary perception that most people have about Indiana basketball. Poorly managed, dramatic, and rabid. It's completely reasonable we would be competing for up and coming coaches with Iowa, particularly when the candidate in question has roots in Iowa City. It's not unfathomable that we are not exactly the cream of the crop compared to the rest of the conference in terms of desirability. The only thing setting us apart anymore is the money.

And no, I will not employ the Randy Savage cream gif here.

That's how most people would describe Fran too.

Breakthrough S16 or higher appearances don't always translate well.   I.e., Archie Miller.

Oh you’re preaching to the choir here, I was just reverse-engineering why some folks are much higher on BM than DD

UPDATE (MARCH 18): With DeVries out of the picture at Iowa, the Hawkeyes will go full speed at McCollum. He was at the Iowa high school basketball state tournament last weekend recruiting.

The buyout is another consequence of Woodson getting a fourth year. We could have hired DD from Drake. Instead we pay five million in NIL and a five million buyout now for a lost season. Incredible.  

Well if you didn’t know we were about to pay $90 million for Brad Stevens so I think we’ll be alright…

He'll be a better hire than Sampson because he's just as good at the X's and O's and (to my knowledge) doesn't have a drug problem in his locker room.

Oh good grief.  Not even remotely comparable.  And Sampson was the exact same age was DD when we hired him.

I would think that if Thamel is saying he’s “not a candidate at Iowa”, that would lean more towards an extension?
Because if Thamel knows he’s not going to Iowa because he’s going to IU, wouldn’t he just break “Devries to IU”?
Yes...or he would say that he is a strong candidate for IU...

I feel like I'm missing something here, but why does Kory Barnett hate IU so much? I understand Tom Ostrom and Chester Frazier...

I would think Chester Frazier gets a serious look at the WVU head job. They all seem to like him a lot.
