Magisterium Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 8 hours ago, Its Always Sunny at IU said: No coach is leaving a good situation for a job that right now is a lateral move. Those schools have money too. I'm starting to feel Mike Lewis once UCLA loses. That way Dolson can say we were waiting on him all along. I believe the reports of Matta and Holtman have some truth which means there's no grand plan and Dolson is having associates cold call coaches hoping someone says yes. I have always been ok with Fife, but am starting to warm up to Lewis big time given his expertise of running a good offense. my point about Oats (& by extension Muss) was exactly that: both schools could've matched any IU offer, so it would've taken some other factor(s) to persuade them to make the move to Bloomington

Dude is on fire about IU and what it ought to be. Frankly, no, I don’t think he would. If you think the Indiana name resonates with kids born between 2003-2005, then you’re wrong. It doesn’t. Nba experience and one of the B1G’s best coaches in the last quarter century does though. edit: I’d be ecstatic for Lewis to join the staff and potentially replace Woody down the road. Love Lewis.

I'm not saying Woodson isn't a good coach but what do you think makes him a good coach? I don't follow the NBA at all anymore. Haven't really in 10-15 years. All I know of Woodson is that he was a great player at IU. Don't really know anything about his coaching style or personality.

He improved the Hawks each year he was coach and too them to the playoffs. He’s the last Knicks coach to get them to the playoffs. I’m not saying he’s Phil Jackson. But you don’t spend that long in the NBA if you aren’t a good coach. Schreckbagger, HoosierHoopster and Crazy about IU 3

I definitely would like to see Hunter retained because of his recruiting connections to the east coast. A number of our outstanding offers under Archie were a result of Hunter's connections.

Period. Gimme Lewis. Gimme that D-2 guy... No freaking way. Pull over, your slow lane is over there. FYI, you may still get Lewis or a Fife on staff. Let it play out.

BleedCubbieBlue Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 I am very disappointed with this hire but at least we got a guy who really wants to be here. I hope that is enough to return us to glory, but I am skeptical. ALASKA HOOSIER 1

Loaded Chicken Sandwich Posted March 28, 2021 Posted March 28, 2021 If we are going to have a coach who has regional recruiting connections, need someone who knows the south.

But I'm certainly not opposed to letting Hunter go if you get somebody better at recruiting to replace him. He just seems like he has plenty of influence on the east coast, which definitely cant hurt

Or do we pay our assistants that poorly? I truly don’t know but it’s going to be important with Woody.
