Hoosierfanyuh Posted March 18 Posted March 18 An average coach should thrive with our NIL, woody was a bad coach. Let’s see what he can do FWHoosier84 and NVFalcons1990 1 1
AH1971 Posted March 18 Posted March 18 How many “insiders” mentioned DeVries name once in the last 6-8 weeks? lol SlammySammy, Alford Bailey, FWA-EVV and 4 others 4 3
Popular Post WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 18 Popular Post Posted March 18 If this is True. Dolson had no real plan in place. Or he got shot down by everyone. No way he Waits on DeVries until tournament is over if he was in tournament. This is the most ultimate of settle hires. But it adds up. ronzo4IU, 323SGrant, brandct and 13 others 15 1

Then he rattles off 6 straight years winning at least 21 games every year at Drake. Turns around a West Virginia team that was 9-23 last year in his first year! This guy can flat out coach and could be locked in for the next 20 years. Or could be fired in 4

HinnyHoosier Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Just now, brandct said: I would take McCollum over him. McCollum in one year has had a better record then he ever did at Drake. Drake was never down before McCollum got there because.... NVFalcons1990 and JaybobHoosier 2
pumpfake Posted March 18 Posted March 18 If true: Sounds like it could be Dolson had his list and whiffed. The search firm came up with DD and that's what we got. Meh. CSP, WayneFleekHoosier and SlammySammy 2 1
str8baller Posted March 18 Posted March 18 1 minute ago, Uspshoosier said: Did they deal with injuries to a top player? I get it. I’m fine with the hire. His record isn’t go do much for most. Yes, IU was without Reneau , our leading scorer, for a stretch. Yes IU beat MSU on the road and Purdue at home…equal to any wins WVU had. I think the turn around he did shows a promising young coach. But he’ll need to step it up big time at IU. Just like Archie needed to but failed to do. It is what it is. I really like his kid as a player and hope he comes
Popular Post VFury Posted March 18 Popular Post Posted March 18 The reaction to this hire is exactly why i was so against the people pushing the Stevens delusion. We just pulled a sitting power 5 head coach who had no reason to leave his current job to come to IU and people don't like it. Unreal Hovadipo, Hoosier82, woodenshoemanHoosierfan and 21 others 22 2
Alford Bailey Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Fun day on the board. Lots of good interactions discussing the legitimate candidates. And maybe (if Trilly is correct) we hired a coach. Jeff Flabjohns, JaybobHoosier and lillurk 3
Papacap Posted March 18 Posted March 18 DeVries may work out. I think the initial reaction by some, including me, is: that’s the best IU could do with a top salary and NIL? I don’t think it will matter as long as he wins but it’s not like he has a strong track record in a power conference. In the end, it’s more of a realization that maybe it’s true that top coaches just don’t want to coach at IU. So we take the best of the middle of the pack and hope they break out. And he may. I’ll support him 100%. Juwan Moye and pumpfake 2
IU_FanClub Posted March 18 Posted March 18 If this is real I am over the moon excited. DeVries is a damn good ball coach and exactly what this program needs! skhoosier2, jonz44, NVFalcons1990 and 2 others 5
Pagoda Posted March 18 Posted March 18 This is just per Trilly? He could be right, but nothing from Thamel or Osterman yet? Juwan Moye, go iu bb, Hoosier Guy and 4 others 7

Fwiw 10-10 on a team that had to put together quickly and without its best player.....pretty damn good. Stuhoo, JaybobHoosier, NVFalcons1990 and 3 others 5 1

jonz44 Posted March 18 Posted March 18 could have had Dusty May, settled on Devries. Ouch. Thanks again Woody.I don't think we'll regret that in the long run. Sent from my SM-S901U using BtownBanners mobile app NVFalcons1990 1
