IU Prof Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Best case Oats scenario is he gets bounced in the Final Four. That might be enough to get a big donor to step up to pay the buyout, but not so far (title) that Oats has to stay. lillurk 1

What happens if Alabama wins the damn thing? I don’t see him leaving. Do we circle back around to a Woodson or Beilein at that point? It's almost impossible to get a coach to leave a place where he's happy and winning unless it's a mid-major guy moving up the ladder. I think Oats would crush it at IU, but he has a good situation at Alabama. And I don't think IU will go after a mid-major guy after getting burned by Archie. Dolson did not have a guy lined up because that rarely happens even at schools that have tradition and rich alumni....see recent coaching hires at other places like Texas football. My guess is a former player and announced today or tomorrow. Edited March 25, 2021 by Its Always Sunny at IU kottke 1

If selected, I shall not perform. PS. I have no problem with the AD keeping things quiet. It is a great work that he is doing. It will be Matta, or a coach still in the NCAAT. It is possible it will be Beard or others. Less probable is an IU guy. It will be someone that has had NCAA basketball head coaching experience at a large university. Or an NBA coach with some college coaching experience. Just an opinion. And it will happen within 3 weeks. And it will not be in the ballpark of $7 million per year.

My thinking is that I'm not sure Oats has the name recognition to get a donor to pay out a $12 million buyout right now. But if he takes Alabama to a final four in his second year, then maybe a donor thinks he's worth the investment. If he wins the title, though, it would be hard for him to leave. lillurk and HoosierDYT 2

MikeRoberts Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 there is no public facts that Steven’s ever entertained IU at all. In fact, he has gone on to make this kind of a joke, like there was never any shred of truth to the rumors at all. and then we have bloggers stating we offered Matta, he accepted But failed a health test and Indiana who has been mum, reaches out to refute all that. then we have goodman saying Drew, an Indiana native and one of the hottest coaches in p5 would be interested but IU has not reached out this has been strange to say the least Stuhoo, IUc2016, kottke and 2 others 4 1
