Card fans were losing their mind when the Pat Kelsey news broke.

Even Kentucky fans were 50/50 on one of their own coming back. Indiana is not unique in this way. Some people should go read the North Carolina boards for awhile. Hell, even Kansas fans are starting to call for the end of Bill Self on their boards.

Yeah exactly everyone should be jumping for joy we hired a mediocre coach.

Your opinion.  Good for you.  :)

Everybody at WVU is upset at losing him.  That should tell you something, because it's not always the case. 

This is very true. I remember Marquette fans being glad that Crean was gone. 

That was the first red flag about him.

Just one guy’s opinion but at the time I was disappointed in both Arch and Woody’s hires, though I could squint and see the vision.

If it’s DDV? I’m actually excited.

Honestly its impossible to compare Arch etch, given the NCAA landscape back then vs now is like talking to someone who is from the 1970's...

 

 

NIL did not exist and honestly I feel Archie would have had a lot more success here if NIL was legal then

Did he pull his good players at WVU out of the portal or did he bring them from Drake?  If the former that is great news.

Other than his son I believe they were not from Drake.

If it's DeVries then the IUBB job isn't as coveted as we think it is. This guy has zero championship experience. Zero. That should be a criteria for this hire. 

He won his conference once and no tournament success.

MVC way down this year. 17/18 players who made all-conference last year either graduated or transferred out. Should have been a two bid league.

Yeah, the MVC got picked clean last offseason. I'm not a McCollum hater by any means, but that league stunk out loud this season.

Let's go!  I am pumped.  IU got a young coach with a lot of upside with proven results.  Get excited!!!

I think Tom Crean would have been really good at Indiana with NIL and the transfer portal, too.

Anyone know about his personality? I just want a normal human after the last three lol

Regular season?  you not adding conference tourney championships?

[Hoosierfanyuh 4,856]

If it’s him, I’m guessing his son and Powell will both be Hoosiers. Both great shooters with B12 experience, let’s keep the party rocking.

At least Archie and Crean had some success in the tournament before they got here.

Hey, @JerryYeagley23, c'mon down and "lift the lid" for us...

[Uspshoosier 52,848]

DeVries will kill it at IU if hired.  Let’s go
