I don't think either of you are going to win here.  Good news is Kerr is not coming so no worries about that.  Bruce Pearl, maybe but only because his first name begins with a B

I would love Bruce Pearl as the Indiana basketball coach

Sounds reasonable.

Ok, gun to your head... DeVries or McCollum to IU?

If I had my pick I’d go McCollum… I’m just a big fan of his. But DeVries is really good too. I’d be more excited about Ben but would also sleep well at night if it were DeVries… haven’t the foggiest clue who it will actually be though… ready to find out!

It´s not DeVries....would make no sense given timing of announcement....everybody is just scrambling/guessing

What announcement?

Donovan 

I don't think you get a pick Scotty.  You have told us 139 times that big fish do not leave jobs to come to a place like IU.

Bulls are on the road until April 1st

It worked well for Bennett at UVA

I come check this thread maybe once per day.  It's always the same process, I come here hoping to find something insightful but instead leave frustrated after seeing page after page of pointless banter.

Perfect time to quit your job and head elsewhere. Just don't get back on the team plane.

Pack line is the Temu version of Ozempic

I'm on team I have no effing idea, and really I have a ton of respect for Scott Dolson to be able to keep it this close to the vest.

It’s easier to do when the candidates agent is also his wife.

Where Woody was retired. That didn´t happen to hire a flavor of the day IMO

I just have no idea who that would be because I’ve heard Donovan is gonna be back in Chicago again next year

Bulls are in purgatory.  GM doesn’t know whether to rebuild or go all in.  Owner doesn’t care about anything.    Donovan may not want to be part of a rebuild.   I think he wants to win now.  
 

With NIL, college is more like nba than ever.   Plus if they hire a GM.

Pack line is overblown.  WVU had the #7 defense in the country and in year 1 of his tenure.  And he would probably bring guys over who have already proven they can play it effectively.

I DO NOT HAVE ANY INSIDE INFO, but I am a music junkie and PJ Harvey's Stories From the City, Stories from the Sea is not only one of the most compelling albums of the past 50 years, it also contains this BANGER of a song:

 

 

If it’s actually Billy Donovan, Scott Dolson becomes AD of the century with Cignetti and Donovan hires.

This is false. Jerry Reinsdorf really cares about pinching pennies.

[Bowhunter]

So if I nobody knows then how come some are saying announcement' coming?

Donovan might get fired and he knows that so he will resign first
