Dana Altman and/or his people has allegedly reached out to IU about the job. 

He’s 62. Is everyone sure now that they want an old guy

I really like Nate Oats. I’d take Musselman too. 

Take a run at both of them, worst case you get a raise for both of them. Let's turn this mother out!

Definitely could do worse than a guy that wins as much as he does. Would’ve liked him more last search when he wasn’t 62. He also relies heavily on transfers if I’m not mistaken.

Just made his 5th sweet 16 at Oregon today. Idk how much he does or doesn’t rely on transfers but this upcoming transfer season would be a great chance for him to remake IU’s roster if he does. He’s 62 but looks younger than Matta, imo. That’s still young enough to get a good 10 years or more from him.

Proven winner you could still get 8-10yrs out of. Not my first choice and skeptical he's actually interested, but I hope Dolson returns the call if he is.

I’d definitely want Altman over Woodson or someone of that nature. He’s won everywhere he’s been.

I’d prefer to get a younger guy, but 62 is still young enough that you can get a decade from him. We’d get 6 years from him before he’d be how old Beilein is right now. He’s won everywhere he’s been. Just read the info a little while ago and thought it was interesting. I hadn’t seen his name really thrown around here before.

Rabjohns, allegedly. But I haven’t found anything to confirm it. Also a tweet from this guy. 15k followers and followed by Rabjohns, Gottlieb, and some other guys. So, basically your garden variety Twitter rumor, lol. But this guy isn’t anonymous at least.

Well I am not concerned about a coaches age since there area 76 year old and a 72 year old in the sweet 16

[ap2345 7,951]

IU called Tony Bennett but nobody knows why.

He has had some stuff that’s happened at Oregon that IU as an institution might not approve of. Similar to what people say about Alford.

Rabby has said it multiple times today. He said they could be but there’s question marks that would need to be cleared up.

Forgot about that incident

[ap2345 7,951]

Rabby said Altman’s people are pushing his name to any IU media people that will listen. I’m thinking he wants a raise.

[WRSMick55 58]

I‘’be decided I am not qualified to be a an Athletic Director. Every candidate has positives and negatives. I think I’m glad to let Dolson make the pick! My head hurts.

[IUHAHN81 2,193]

Great now every Tom, Dick and Harry that wants a raise is using IU as a means to get one! Even if NONE of this is true, it's damn near comical now.
