Didn’t Goodman also say a week ago with Robbie Hummel that IU wouldn’t fire CAM with a 10 million buyout? 

Yeah. Goodman is a clown.

That screams something big is going on to me or both of those guys just lied to Goodman. Either way could be accurate.

And maybe Goodman's "sources" are nothing more than the barista at his Starbucks.

Gotta say @Chris007 was 100% right in saying Goodman would report the Archie news first.

I knew that would be leaked from the Archie camp and not IU

Shrewsberry coached at Butler and Boston with Stevens

Yes...they were hoping Stevens would follow his lead

He literally called everything right in the last few weeks. That is why I don't understand how people pay $$ on other sites. Also those people are a$$es too. I've always felt everyone on this site is friendly.

If we are talking dream scenarios, how about Stevens with Beilein as a top assistant who can get things rolling while Brad finishes the NBA season out.  Seems like Beilein just wants to work anyway, and it could reduce his recruiting burden.

That scenario would be MF awesome!

I have always appreciated this crowd of folks more. The board layout is much easier layout as well which helps.

I’ll beat the opposite drum. Beilein with our current roster could win immediately. Is he the long term answer? No. But he fixes things immediately. Could even hire him and do a coach in waiting as the associate head coach. Or just have the program in a much better spot for when he retires in 6-7 years. We don’t need a coach for the next 30 years, we just tried that. We need a coach who could win now. Beilein fits that bill. 

This is where I am. He is not my first choice, but I certainly wouldn't be unhappy like Josh was with Archie.

As far as recruiting and transfers go, IU needs to make a decision within a week or two for the next coach.  It will be crucial for any incoming coach to speak with the current players, next years commit(2021), the following years commit(2022) and any transfers that they may bring with them or that they may want.  

Unless it’s Stevens. We wait as long as we have to for him. That’s an order everyone!!!!!!!!!

I 100% believe this is true.  Let me break some more news for you.  Indiana has not yet reached out to Stevens, Matta, Beilein, or any other coach, but I bet that IU has reached out to their agents or representatives.  I don't know if this is just someone being cute with the words they are using, but not reaching out to them is different than not reaching out to their reps.

[woodenshoemanHoosierfan 6,456]

Someone like CAM. So are you interested in Mack? I ask because he's basically Archie but maybe slightly better with a more charismatic personality.

Same type of results. I don't worry about a person's personality et al unless they are slime like Bruce Pearl, Calipari and Rick Pitino

IF Brad wanted to come, I don’t think he’d want to wait until June when the season ends. He’d be missing the chance to build a legitimate team between April and June. I think he’s want to get started right away. I imagine a whole lot of transfers would be interested in playing for Brad Stevens.

Yeah, if you are looking to move on and you are one of those guys, I don't think you are showing your hand to the media.

First thing I noticed about this site. 

[AZ Hoosier 9,053]

Saw this while surfing the net this morning... Smart would be interesting, but not a grand slam hire... maybe not even a home run.

But you can't be upset with Scott if he offers Brad 7 years 50 million and he says no. That is taking his shot and just not getting what we want. 

Agree. That's all I've wanted is for Indiana to at least legitimately go after the big fish and make a real attempt to make the best hire(s).
