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.

Dolson has been at this for over a month. 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.

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

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.

What else do you think he would say ... 

"We wanted Brad Stevens. In fact, we thought we had him in the bag. But at the last minute, he changed his mind. So with that, I'd like to introduce to you Darian Devries, our new basketball coach."

Was our guy BS?

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.

Dolson is a moron.  Got hoodwinked in 2021.  Got hoodwinked in 2025.

I think it's far more likely that Dolson has a great PR firm who convinced a bunch of sheep that all problems within IUbb were not his fault and he would ride in, smite the enemy within and bring a savior.

Now you can see the emperor is really a big part of the problem instead

Already talked myself into liking DvD so if it’s someone that would be seen as better than him (not BM) I’ll be elated

To repeat, DvD makes absolutely no sense as an abbreviation. Look at his name again.

So did we hire DD? I’m generally a very negative/hard to please fan, but this would get my stamp of approval.

Still not a huge fan of Dolson if true that he let his foot off the gas because he thought Brad was locked in, but DD is a legit hire so props to Scott if this happens. 

Thamel just reported it.  It's done.

Not convinced until we get Rabby’s soft bread crumb chatter tidbits with shreds of morsel sprinkle whispers.  
 

Announcement could be today, sometime before the tourney or right after the beginning of the tourney and wouldn’t be surprised if it’s tomorrow or during the tourney.  

To summarize……

At some undetermined time  there will be an announcement.
