Beard vs May is tough. Dolson and May are very close. I think that’s why it’s gonna be Dusty in the end. Do I think the next real program that Hires Beard with a good Nil system will be a top 10 team going forward? Yes. Do I think Indiana is that with May? Maybe.

This should go without saying obviously, but there will be no press conference tomorrow. I’ll be able to take the lid off a bit later in the week. But will say this, anybody providing details right no

I’ve had several PM’s so wanted to drop a quick line to the broader board. Love this group and fully intend to continue to contribute to the community, Im not going anywhere. (Sorry to a few of you) B

So I couldn’t get much from him unfortunately. But, to me that’s a good thing. There’s been pretty much zero chatter, nor leaks for a month about coaches. He said it doesn’t matter that the season is

If iu wins today are some of your opinions going to change on Dusty? I like Dusty just think it’s a fun talking point.

I also wonder at this point does Woody really want to win this one to prove a point, or does it not really matter that much to him?

They could hire Gates tomorrow and even with an 0-18 conference record on his resume they would still be in better shape than they have been the last 4 years.    Definitely could aim higher however if he actually was hired they would have hired an actual college basketball coach that is well respected and looked at as a very good young coach.   There is a reason he is getting mentioned by national writers.  It’s not just message board posters pushing it.   In my opinion it doesn’t get down to him but if we ended with Gates I would be on board snd ready to roll.   Probably most would turn their nose up at it and make fun of it 

Agree that he would be better than the last four years, but I hope that's not what we are comparing the next hire to.  I mean Woodson wasn't a good hire even though his record was better than Archie's.

I liked Greg McDermott last time and i like him again this time if we strike out on everyone. He’s done a masterful job this year. Only issue is that he’s 60 now but he’d win a lot of games

McDermott was a guy that I really wanted IU to go after when he was at Northern Iowa.  I was shocked that he didn't succeed at Northern Iowa.  Certainly turned it on during his next job, though.

@Chris007 I know that we are all hoping for option 1 and have reasons to be optimistic, but in general how confident are you that Dusty would be a definite yes if it got to him? I know there have been some reports since last year that maybe he wasn’t as locked in for IU as we initially thought, but wondering if you had heard anything suggestive one way or another.

We will know quick if he finally starts one big. But my guess, because Michigan plays two bigs we will too, never mind that their bigs can step outside and the one guy can put it on the deck. It’s a bad matchup for the Ballo/Malik tandem IMO. But I am certain Woody wants to win this game. I’d bet it’s been circled for a while, unless he’s completely disconnected and thinks their coach is named Rusty May.

I don’t want one of these guys that gets lucky every few years and makes it to the tournament….williams needs to show he can dominate his conference first….he can’t even win a conference title..I vote no….even though nobody cares about my vote

Hoping for Dusty to jump ship to a conference opponent after only a year at Michigan feels alot like the NFL crowd that actually believes that an NFL team is going to trade for a sought after HC. Just not real likely folks

I mean Dusty negotiated his buyout to be very easy to do, but go off.

I’m not saying you (or anyone else is wrong about this) but is there any truth to this claim other than folks seeing the buyout as a little low? And it’s not really super low for a guy jumping to P4 from what I can research. I just don’t see anything to support this claim.
