Then had to turning everything into overdrive. I’m sure Jerry will be able to explain it better. If true, that would be a major failure on his part. Of course, when an announcement IS made he'll say "this is the guy we were after all along". Sheesh. Jet812 1
Rusty Shackleford Posted March 18 Posted March 18 So we got Mag and RTZ out here with their proverbial **cks in the wind. I'm rooting for you guys. A turn around to big name at this point would be stunning. Juwan Moye, HoosierRich and Magnanimous 3

And our next coach is…the guy who 48 hours ago got screwed out of the NCAAT by the UNC AD, so he just happens to now be hanging around this week, then flies to Iowa and then gets hired by IU later that afternoon? Talk about some terrible fan fiction. Bm then?

Hopefully that was not the case as Steven’s has had 4 friggin years to ponder being IU’s coach. I’ll be surprised, and disappointed, if he was the guy Scott thought he had only to have him back out. cybergates 1

FrenchConnection Posted March 18 Posted March 18 Just now, TheWatShot said: I guess I'm hesitant to get excited if he's the guy because I feel like I'd have to talk myself into liking him and thinking he'd win here. I talked myself into Kelvin Sampson. I talked myself into Tom Crean. I talked myself into Archie Miller and Mike Woodson. I'm not sure I can keep doing this. Well, Sampson would have won big at IU if the administration had his back. Crean was actually winning, but I guess not enough. Miller was considered a good hire at the time. But yeah, I had to do a lot of talking myself into Woody. At least RMK got to come back to AH at the end of his life, so I guess there is that.

Talk about some terrible fan fiction. are you basing your news on these thoughts? if you follow Chris' timeline, Scott got left at the altar recently....oh, about 48-72 hours ago....that could be entirely correct..... unless you know more, it makes sense Scotty R 1
