Here I am falling all over the smoke and rumors, but having a great time doing it. It’s the most fun I had as a Hoosier for the past four years. Whoever our next coach might be at least I feel hope again. BannerVille, BtownStrength, Home Jersey and 10 others 13

Reminds me of the RMK platitude: Mental over physical as 3 to 1. But that is not where I am. I want a coach that understands Xs and Os and can get the best out of matchups. And one that is a winner at IU. Not fun to watch, huh? Yeah, I guess defense is not fun to watch. Nor is sharing the ball and passing./s I want winners. Bob Knight's teams must have been not fun to watch. Could have fooled me and I was there when they went undefeated. They refused to lose. Not fun to watch. We need a coach that is a winner. It would be really nice if that coach did not have a lot of, uhm, issues that would possibly hurt the school's image...funding...and scare off recruits. Would be nice if that coach would be able to change and adjust depending on the team makeup and the opponents. In short form, I’d rather have both. CSP 1
TadQueasy Posted February 13 Posted February 13 So can someone share what these Trilly rumors or post was about? ALASKA HOOSIER 1

This thread started back in 2021 before Archie got $hit canned. So it covers two search’s for Brad “FING” Stevens. Let’s hope this one goes better.

JSHoosier Posted February 13 Posted February 13 I can see Dolson feeling the need to try and mend relationships with AAU coaches. It doesn't seem wise to mention any particular coach without them being signed though. rcbowla, T White, JaybobHoosier and 2 others 5

There were two separate things from Trilly: Brad has two weeks to decide and the AAU coaches call. pumpfake, go iu bb, thebigweave and 1 other 4

Understand where you’re coming from, but end of the day in the 5-man game of bball dominant players win. That is, with good coaching. I want to have a really good x’s and o’s coach, only Sampson and RMK fit that bill at IU, but of course the powerhouse programs recruit, land and win with elite players, KU, Duke, etc. don’t try to win with just “mental over physical,” that gets you only do far. Put yourself in the best position to win with the best players. And the RMK reference there is kind of ironic. He had boatloads of top rated players. He wasn’t winning championships with smart non-athlete players, no program does. Get a really good x’s and o’s coach who is a proven winner — and recruits like there’s no tomorrow, builds programs, elite players, and plays modern bball for Christ’a sake. This isn’t the 1970’s, get long, athletic 2-way wings, shooters, speed, and yes, athleticism. Dave from Dayton 1

Lol this is what I think will happen too. We're getting all excited until Brad Stevens is announced as the new assistant commissioner of the NBA or some other position that may or may not exist. Gotta shoot your shot though. Hoosier DaDa, Ryno6284, Home Jersey and 1 other 4
