Magnanimous Posted February 10 Posted February 10 35 minutes ago, Stuhoo said: You are gonna die on McCollum hill my friend! :) Address my concern - I don't give a rat's @$$ about style of play because if he's the real deal he will adjust his style of play immediately if and as warranted. This is a guy that is/has never been associated with any P5 program at any time, has only been in any way associated with a D1 program for 23 games, has never played against a ranked team, has never beaten a team in the NET top 40, is at a program with almost zero NIL (that's why he needed to bring a bunch of D2 players in), is coaching at a school with no football has never dealt with major boosters, agents, or media attention has never managed a large staff or organization So let's agree that he is an outstanding on-court technician and off-court culture-setter and motivator. Can't we also agree that Indiana will have innumerable choices of similarly talented on-court technicians, albeit ones with on-court success against the best teams in the nation, and ones who have success in addressing every single bullet point I listed? Those are fair points and is why he should have Thad Matta and Dane Fife on staff for the first year or two to navigate this fishbowl. Home Jersey, Stuhoo, Pagoda and 1 other 4

Completely fair! Wasn’t trying to talk about it exactly so if it came across that way wasn’t my intention. AZ Hoosier 1

McCollum will be insanely successful when a P4 school snatches him up. Would not be surprised to see Iowa 'retire' Fran just to hire him. So Iowa the run and gun team fans would be happy with the slow pace?

GP711 Posted February 10 Posted February 10 fwiw, any Beard smoke that is there is coming from the agent side because beard wants the job. It's a hard no from the athletic department side, he was passed on before het got arrested. OKHOOSIER, Hollywood Mike Miranda, thebigweave and 4 others 7

That’s what happens on a board. The “Fire Mike Woodson” thread has over 2,000 pages. If nothing was posted over and over that thread would be reduced to roughly three pages. :) SlammySammy, CSP and Pagoda 1 2

Some of you guys act like if you’re not watching the tv with the energy of a methed-out lab monkey banging a keyboard, it isn’t really basketball. Wisconsin, Villanova, and Virginia fans got to watch plenty of wins, conf titles, FFs and championships the last decade-plus while IU has been mostly having circular conversations about coaching searches.

Hoosier DaDa Posted February 10 Posted February 10 Hear me out everyone. Dolson needs to hire Will Wade, not as our head coach, but as our headhunter. Will is task with making Brad Stevens “strong a$$ offer” that Stevens can’t refuse. realTomCrean, Stuhoo and Tasmanian Devil 3
