General Coach Candidate News

I personally am a big fan of Nate Oats but I am confused by a lot of the talk on here around him. Am I missing something I was under the impression that there was no way we would get him?

To those of us worried what the national media says about the desirability of the IU job...

 

Agree with what Stuhoo said earlier: perception is part of the reality. People fear this job. The pressure of high expectations from administration, fans, players, students, and media in a place that is absolutely craving a return to success is no small feat to withstand. There are many programs out there notably more successful than IU has been in the last two decades, but I guarantee you the media would take IU back in a heartbeat once we start finding success. They’ll never say it now, but they won’t be able to write their headlines fast enough when the time comes. Some of those others that have been relatively successful won’t get a second thought when they fall off. Just look at how much they love to talk about us now.

More than likely not, but who really knows.

He has a big buyout and said he was not interested when this all started, but that doesn't usually mean much. Not sure if the increase in "chatter" is being driven by anything other than fan speculation though.

Greg Gard, Painter, Brian Dutcher, and Kevin Ollie that i can think off the top of my head 

Yea... Kevin Ollie didn't work out... Got em a title... But them tossed the entire program into a ditch like a dead body.

This really is just one big game of nobody knows what the hell is going on huh lol. I'm waiting for the day there's an announcement and it's just a complete mystery candidate haha

There's always money in the banana stand

Dolson has gone out of his way to make sure people know he's not playing around and neither are the boosters. 

• he made it a point to mention it only took 2 phone calls to raise the cash
• he basically said he's working with a blank check for the new coach
• he (possibly) leaked a $7M per year offer to Stevens

And just like that we start hearing names like Beard, Drew, and Matta possibly interested. 

This isn't just about restoring Indiana basketball. This is about Indiana University athletics flexing muscle period. It's why he locked up Allen.

We all have a lot of pride in our Hoosiers. Imagine how much Dolson has? Imagine how ticked off he was when the conference decided to change the rules at the last minute to keep IU out of the football conference championship?

This is an opportunity for Dolson and Co. to pull one over on Alabama, Arkansas, the national media, you name it.

He's the one sitting at the table with the fat stack of chips. Not a top job? Scott Dolson scoffs at the notion!!!

Absolutely... But we shouldn't strive for a Kevin Ollie. He was god awful. Couldn't coach and couldn't recruit.
