He has to say that to keep all the cat and card fans in his back yard happy

Josh Pastner openly lobbying for the job on Peacock pregame. Might as well add him to the list

Josh Pastner is the answer to the question "Who would you actually hire Brad Brownell over?"

I would let Pastner be an assistant coach. But that’s about it.

I thought the only reason Pastner ever got hired in the first place was his link to AAU/travel programs. It had nothing to do with any alleged coaching abilities. 

NIL would essentially make Pastner even less revelant in 2025. 

Yikes!

Personally, I would rate them on a scale from one to ten.  I don't know how other people would rate them.  

I have zero desire for Mick Cronin. I’ve had to deal the last 8 years listening to coaches voices/personality I can’t stand. I feel like we can get someone just as good as Cronin but with some actual heart, charisma, and care for his players. I want a coach that players want to run through a wall for and I just don’t see that for Cronin and he’s not someone I see who can have a long sustained success here because of it.

I feel like Cronin's agent is a huge IU fan and likes to post on this board. I have never heard more pumping up of a more mediocre candidate than Cronin....while also being so dismissive of every other candidate as bring "unrealistic". The only people that know if a coach is realistic or not is their respective agents and families.

Yep he’s 15-14 in the NCAA tournament with only one final four appearance. If we are looking for a true homerun hire I just don’t see it.

Glad this is not coming from an IU page. I don’t think it’s true either. https://x.com/HotTakeHuskies/status/1889422846104862995

You believe a UConn dude?  I saw that and then thought troll. 

[Home Jersey 13,268]

Not saying that account doesn't know anything but UConn twitter loves antagonizing IU fans so I would err on the side of that being bait lol

Remember 4 years ago the OSU guy who kept pretending to have all this inside info and that Stevens to IU was a done deal?  Don’t feed the trolls.
