With how tight lipped everything has been in regards to the search, seems kind of weird for this to be announced. Feels like a way to placate those people wanting an IU guy by saying we considered one. 

[Iubravos 327]

Brad is not coming!!!

[madmax 442]

Who is the most obvious, non-controversial, at least somewhat plausible candidate that has had the least amount of smoke?

Christopher Michael Beard.

Been saying it and saying it, but my gut says its gonna be him. Probably wrong, but I want to at least try to speak it into fruition.

Good point and makes me think of a HOT TAKE.

An interview was conducted with Cheaney today via zoom in order to pander to the IU alums desperate for a coach with Hoosier ties. The only reason this was done now is because we have an agreement with our next coach who will be announced soon... Christopher Michael Beard!

I mean have to be doing something since three of our targets are still coaching their teams right now.

 

It will heat up next week

I’m about 5 blocks away from Scott. He needs to come talk to me and I’ll tell him my list. 
 

TIM ******** BUCKLEY!

Actually the more that I think about this the more that it makes total sense.

Dolson has already agreed with his next coach to a deal.

Dolson realizes that many alumni and donors want an IU guy despite the fact that no former player really meets the right criteria.

Dolson realizes that he needs to interview an IU guy just so that he can say that he did.

Dolson sets up a Zoom interview with Cheaney knowing that this interview will go nowhere.

Dolson intentionally leaks that this meeting happened so that the fan base can hear about it.

It does make some sense, but if so he has to be really careful using an All-time great Hoosier as a prop.

sounds like (at least) 2 IU guys might be involved--Calbert and Woody

It would go along with what Chris said last night that Calbert was disappointed this wasn't a real interview.

That's fair. And I'm exaggerating a tad with it all... but I mean maybe he was trying to get Cheaney on the new guy's staff? Maybe it wasn't  an interview for HC, but for an AC gig?

Why are they better?

[rcbowla 7,092]

Yes but if a coach has AAU connections with Nike, would he change brands and come to Iu? What I’m saying does having adidas sponsorship hurt our chances at landing a coach because he’s rather got to a nike school ?

Yeah that's what I'm saying. The coach may very well have a preference but the company won't really have any say on who could be hired. I was speaking more to what Sterling had said

I can understand a courtesy interview....frankly CC's resume doesn't merit the HC job.

I don’t trust anyone outside of Lewis or Fire to recruit or coach at Indiana.
