I’m not caught up on all of this but Isiah lives in White Plains also right.

How come no one has floated his name as a prospect? Every other living IU player has been.

Once it is all said and done, I myself would like to hear more on the whole situation. Won’t ask for anything, but willing to listen to anything you share.

If even half of the things that seem to be true... are true... I would honestly like to see a movie about this ordeal. Could be a ton of exaggeration. Could be an actually true amazing story.

I don’t see the issue, Joash.

You know Rivals will tweet about him being a strong candidate just as soon as they get the spelling of his first name correct (could be a while).

Please not Woodson. I don’t think the fan base will rally around him. I could see this going very poorly.

Gotta go Lewis there.  

Might be able to get both

Reminds me of the movie about the Cleveland Browns screwing everything up on draft day and then everything turning out great in the end.

Both?

[Iubravos 327]

I think we get Mussel. He's attainable and the best option. Get it done, Dolson. 

[ap2345 7,563]

My guess is that it’ll be Woodson.

Would be a hard sell..Would need the best assistants money can buy

It’s spelled muscle. Typical Isayah fan.

I’d be ecstatic. He checks all my boxes. 
 

Successful at more than one school. Didn’t need a once in the generation talent and knows how to build through transfers.  And unlike Crean and Archie in their combined 30+ years of coaching, Musselman has actually won a conference tourney.

That’s what Rabby said today on JMV. He said he knew of several that he would have at IU in a second, because they were so good at getting top recruits.

ND Kendrick tweeted for everyone to relax earlier today. I don’t think he knows either. I did the other day. I think that was the Matta story.

I don't see any scenario where we can pry him away from the Walton/WalMart money in Arkansas...

This has been the first search I've followed pretty closely. In 2017 I didn't pay attention as much for some reason. I went back and looked today (on spring break) at the last three searches for IU. I noticed one trend...the guy they hired really wasn't mentioned until the end. In 2006 I think Few, Beilein, Calipari, Alford, and Wittman were mentioned way before Sampson. In 2008 I think it was Tony Bennett until he turned it down. Crean's name popped up out of nowhere the day or two before he was announced. In 2017 Archie's named popped up but many felt it was Alford with Bennett and Billy Donovan as long shots. So honestly who knows. The search is fun, it's exciting but we can't believe anything anyone says. I enjoy discussing candidates and debating their resumes but we can't take every single tweet as the gospel. Even Rabjohns said he has zero clue what;s going on. IF it's Beilein, Woodson, or some assistant like Calbert, I feel either a) they would've already been hired or b) they will be at anytime in the next day or so. If this position is still vacant going into the weekend I feel as if they are talking to Beard or waiting for someone like Musselman, Moser, or Altman to finish the tournament. I find it impossible to believe that someone donated all that money to get Mike Woodson or Calbert Cheaney.
