General Coach Candidate News

Seth Greensburg says Tony Bennett wouldn’t answer a call.

 

Says Brad Stevens is probably staying with Celtics.

 

Seth is naming random names now for the job.. Zeke.. Alford.. Fife..

 

He says it’s not as good as Job as everyone thinks.

There is a reason why Seth never got hired for another job after VT

Greenberg is still mad we fired his best friend Crean.

Let’s say Beilein is your 3rd or 4th option coach and ends up being your guy.   Day 1 on the job where are you ranking him in terms of coaches in the B1G?   Despite his age in my opinion he moves IU’s coach up to Third at worst and 2nd at the highest in the B1G  

I place him right behind Izzo at 2nd.  I hate typing Painter is right there below them along with Holtman.  Greg Gard rounds out the top 5.  I can’t put Howard that high yet but probably will be soon.

Greenburg said we would hire Alford after Crean

I did say something about Brad not coming on HSN, but if they are offering the money Chris is saying, that’s big change!

How long before we get the Brad Stevens version of "Billy Donovan is in Bloomington" lol

DD giving it to the local bloggers lol

I’m trying to understand why he hasn’t said “yes” yet ( More money, better job security, close to home), and with COVID I would think he’d want more time with family.

I sent you a PM to compare notes but didn't know it was your kid on there. If you can see it you can respond if not that's OK

No one from national media wants Stevens to come to IU because they'd have to eat their own words. Local guys agreeing with them are just not good at their job. I'm optimistic until I have a reason not to be. 

[dwtaylor1055 1,518]

Greenburg also saying if you don't have three guys with legit interest that you feel confident in hiring then you don't make this change and you wait another year.  DD agreed.

So I’m in Ohio today. Would Dolson and Stevens be meeting in Cleveland, Boston , or Somewhere in between?

The Beilein reaction is fascinating. His years at UM he was in any conversation for the best guy in the country. For me, he’d be #1.  And yet we’ve got folks running around talking about him like he’s some kind of geriatric retread scrub. Stop it. Sure, the age is a thing so the plan would have extra moving parts. And the recruiting and long-term culture pieces would have to be part of that. It’s a legit issue. But the 1 indisputable thing is that if Beilein is on the sideline in AH in November, IU will never, ever get out coached. He is a premium guy.

This is what worries me.  I had myself convinced BD was our coach 4 years ago and it's already happened again with BS this time around. 

Didn't someone post a picture of Charlie Brown and Lucy saying "Brad Stevens is answering our calls this time Charlie Brown" right as she's about to yank away this football.  My head tells me that's what will happen again but for now, until it does (or hopefully doesn't) ... Brad is our man!!!!

Greensburg always says how every coach in America is an “outstanding coach.” He reminds me of what Warren Buffet once wrote.  
“If you have been in a poker game for a while, and you still don’t know who the patsy is, you’re the patsy.” 

Greensburg is a sucker
