Well assuming he’s gone, I wonder how soon it’ll be announced if he is? 

Probably depends on the terms, right? If he wants out and wants to be a candidate elsewhere ASAP you can probably negotiate some horse trades about mitigation, buyout, etc. but that might take more time.

More likely he’s competitive and doesn’t want out but sees what we all see. So you talk about coming to the table but decide the contract stands and separate on the existing terms.

The other timing considerations are your target(s)/interview process/competitors.  Only Beilein and Matta are free now among the most-discussed candidates here; everyone else plays at least next weekend.

All told: within a week? Chris thinks sooner though. Hmmmmmmm

If we’re sticking with someone who can’t beat Purdue & Rutgers because Knight didn’t like someone’s dad than we have bigger problems.

if we stick with someone it'll have nothing to do with "ancient history" from back then, it'll likely have more to do with some folks' fear of what they think would be "bad optics"

Yep, not a long term answer and not my first choice, but would right the ship. What would IU's record have been this year with Beilein?  17-10, at least? Guy can coach. 

think it would almost have to involve some sort of designated "Head Coach in Waiting" arrangement with one of the assistants he hired.

I think a lot of the Archie hate started with the Billy D talks coming here.  People were certain BD was coming, got their hopes up, and no one was going to be good enough.  (Other than Brad Stevens)

He got a chance and has been terrible. Had he been showing some kind of improvement things would be different but he hasn’t and he doesn’t have a Cody Zeller and Yogi Ferrell walking through the door to save him either.

Yeah, can’t wait for Pap to swing by, or for Chris to relay what he hears tomorrow...

Chris and I are grabbing Uptown tomorrow morning and then swinging by Cook Hall. I think we’re helping Archie clean out his office.

The next person who’s going to hear something will be Goodman or someone like that.

For what’s it’s worth, I have on very good authority that after Saturday’s game Landers mom text Archie and told him “you’re nothing but a ******* used car salesman”

 

I did not see this text directly but I know people that were at the same establishment she was and saw it.
