He could recruit successfully in Indiana (especially the southern half), but I don't see how he'd have any chops out of state.  Part of our problem recently has been woeful out of state recruiting.

we have woeful out of state recruiting because we suck.  Gotta win first.  Then the recruits will line up.

""Sigh...Woodson and Lewis are starting to sound good to me."

Maybe this is Dolson's plan. You swing and missed on Stevens.  Everyone is now upset.  Trot out ridiculous names like Cheaney and Woodson so that when you announce Beard or Drew as the next coach everyone breaths a giant sigh of relief and is elated.  I really think that's what's happening.  Pure genius on Dolson's part.

Can we just hire Beilein already?

Seems like he's the choice if all tournament coaches have no interest. 

Crazy how we are paying $10 million dollars for Archie to vacation for a year while coaches *potentially* turn us down and we’re hiring someone with zero head coaching experience.

Way more potential than the old farts of Woodson and Alford. Has learned from arguably a better coach than most of the names I’ve seen on here. NBA connections, smart as hell, has respect of the best players of the world. 
 

 

I hope this is a joke.  I don't think I'd ever watch another IU game.

Rabjohns didn't say much that we didn't already know. One interesting tidbit was some schools are afraid of getting Chris Beard because Texas may want him. Says Texas would throw money at him. That being said, even he the "IU insider" said he has zero clue on what is going on. So take whatever anyone says with a grain of salt. I truly think nobody knows what is going on behind the scenes.

Sums up my thoughts.  I would even go so far to say the push for Stevens may have been dead from the start but Dolson had to feign a real attempt to appease the fan base.

Rabby Highlights on JMV

1. Not surprising that Franklin is in the portal to explore his options. 
2. Transfers will be crazy with guys looking and moving around.

3. Dolson has talked to former players about who they want. 
4. Dolson has given some former players consideration. 
5. Woodson has interest and is getting some consideration plus he knows how to relate to players. Rabby said he’s a good coach in basketball terms but the question is recruiting which is what already know. He would have to put together a phenomenal staff. 
6. Rabby said he has no clue who they will hire. 
7. There is some interest from IU in Woodson, Cheaney, Matta, possibly interested in Moser and Muss. He doesn’t know if IU will even talk to Fife or Lewis but they might. Altman is interested. He’s not sure if Beard will get called because everyone thinks Texas will do anything to get him when Shaka is eventually fired. 

8. Physicals don’t happen for coaches so the Matta report is crap but IU is or was interested. 
9. Scott is running the show on this search which we already knew. 

Basically Rabby isn’t saying much whether he knows something or not and Dolson has talked to a LOT of people.

Not for me.

I’m keeping my expectations very high despite the lackluster options being laid out in front of me.  
 

Thad Matta was a lucky dodge.  I’m hoping for lucky dodges for Woodson, B-Line, Cheaney, and quite a few others.
