I like Jake but I believe he might be a day behind.

I don't really get this line of thinking. It's been established that no one knows anything that's going on. Until we actually hire a coach I feel like this is premature. I'm still hoping he's waiting on a tourney coach but it'd look pretty bad if it leaked that we were interviewing say Musselman while his team was still in the tourney. I guess I'm of the opinion that if one of these IU guys or Beilein was who we wanted then we would've hired them already. 

Oh I know it’s totally not rational of me to think this way. It’s just that the combination of our players entering the transfer portal and some of the names being linked to the job has me fearing for the worst. I hope that it’s all smokescreens because of what you said, most of the big names out there are still coaching.

Yeah I’m hoping it’s all smoke screens. 
 

I trusted Scott last Monday. He tried with Brad and I guess it’s not happening. I need to trust him again with hiring a qualified coach.

Lets interview Kyle Hornsby tomorrow. 
 

- He’s an IU grad

- He’s a doctor

- He’s smart

Good enough! 

Loved him when he was with The Range... saw him open for The Grateful Dead a time or two, as well

Hey, why not? 

She just led the Hoosiers to our first Sweet 16 and consistently has been in the Top 20 for the past two seasons and this past season, we've dipped into the Top 10. She's a proven winner, a proven recruiter and has been successful at luring talented transfers. Last season, she handed consensus No. 1 South Carolina its only loss. The Gamecocks only trailed after four quarters all season -- three were against us. You could argue that last season, it was the best victory in IU sports. Plus, she's right down the hall ... 

(If we can have a ridiculous Becky Hammon thread, we can have one for Moren as well. She has several years of college experience on her resume; Hammon has none!)

Still have 2 slots for assistants. Go ahead and bring whomever. 

How many assistant coaches can you have? Serious question.

[Hippopotamo 517]

Dolson has earned the benefit of the doubt. He got rid of Archie without any department funds, and has been extremely professional in this search so far.

Why would she want to take a step down?

 

[Brass Cannon 24,311]

Would be interesting.  Honestly wouldn’t be opposed compared to some of the vanes we are seeing.

It was for sure yesterday, might have been zoom, CC just said he talked to Dolson. I assumed it was phone. 

Apparently the $1M question is was it yesterday AND an follow up today or just s single session... not that it really matters, more of a curiosity... IMO, it's more smoke being generated to hide what's really going on...

[Trish 11,524]

Pending the hire, we might not be seeing Hunter or Miller again. 
 

Or Marshall.

If that's the case, and I don't think it is, I'm checking out for awhile.

We can have additional support staff as well.

 

GA’s 

Player Development Coaches 

there’s too many titles to keep up with. 

[IU Prof 816]

All speculation, but I was just thinking that I'd put the odds at ~80-85% that the next coach is on this list: Beard, Beilein, Drew, Musselman, and Oats.

Let’s just say it’s Keith Smart

who’s his staff?

Same. I can’t do a three year rebuild after the five year rebuild we just finished with. It doesn’t get more underwhelming than that list. Makes me want to barf.
