Trish Posted February 7 Posted February 7 We’re so BACK! I’ve been crying for a coaching search ever seen Dolson announced Woodson was the new head coach. What a complete waste of four years for this Indiana program. Nonetheless, here we are. These are the candidates I think you have to pursue. 1. Stevens 2. Wright 3. May 4. Pearl 5. Beard Beard, with his history, I just don’t buy it. Yes, he’s a hell of a coach. But I just don’t know if Indiana wants that risk. They got rid of Kevin Wilson quickly for even lesser circumstances. I don’t think we can take a shot of an up and coming coach, that’s just to risky at this point. It needs be a proven winner. Obviously Brad and Jay are “longshots”, but you have to make them so no with your best offer. At the end of the day, I think Brad finally comes home and the basketball program is finally saved.

Hoosier987 Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Stevens, May, Pearl, Beard, Drew. Anyone of these and we’re cooking. There’s not time to mess around anymore. Get a damn coach and win!

I just don't think Wright is a realistic candidate based on his own words, that said, if we are doing pure wish list and including him, my list is adjusted (I also do not think Pearl is in there this time after last year but I will include it): 1. Jay 1A. Brad 1B. Few 2. Pearl 3. Drew Field. I am not rehashing the reasons and I do not think he will be considered, but I will say this for Beard: if an extremely thorough vetting process comes back clear (it wont), and he has very strict moral clauses I could squint and see it i guess. I do not have to agree morally with a hire to root for my alma mater. I rooted for them every game despite knowing every win was bad for the FMW train. That said, if any of the Number 1s actually get hired, I am gonna be insufferable as a MF around other CBB fans lol Iufan93, moyemayhem and thebigweave 3

I know that there are some posters that will argue and say that IU isn’t a top job, but I think that with our NIL budget we can attract legit coaches that can win here.

I think he’s a good coach but he’s also from Texas making 4.5 million a year already so I’m not sure why he’d leave No on Buzz Williams. Good coach, but too quirky. Very much like Crean in that respect.
