General Coach Candidate News

[Loaded Chicken Sandwich 9,003]

I will throw out what my priorities would be if I were Dolson. And I'd go down the line and kick the tires of these guys in order.

1. Brad Stevens

2. Nate Oats

3. Chris Beard

4. Dusty May

5. Greg McDermott

6. Shaka Smart

7. Buzz Williams

8. Ben McCollum

I may have missed someone I like but this is a good list for me and I don't think it would make it past 3 without a done deal and if it did, it wouldn't make it past 4.

Seems like there are a few posters who need to get different sources or admit it’s a troll…6month ban for misinformation

Meaning if extended or not extended he is not coming to IU?

“Michigan is trying to sign May to a new contract. If there is a new contract, that’s not an automatic “No” to IU. The key piece to examine is the buyout.”

[Truthhurts 157]

McCollum is the guy who’d get me the most amped. I’m probably in the minority on that, but if they go get him, check back with me in 2 years on how you feel about the hire.

Ok so Steven’s off the table…..May not coming……Beard not a candidate…..sigh…here we go again..

 

”we have our guy”. Oh this should be rich

Brad F’n Stevens give him $15m/yr.  Turn that down.  We are Hoosiers!

I like May and McDermott

Dusty big time and I do think McDermott has proven himself well at Creighton — I can’t bring myself to call him old since he’s just a few years older than me….

I have PTSD from Archie about hiring the “up and comer”

Vegas taking odds on the coaching search?

If the rumor that Few reached out to IU is true he has to rocket to the top of the board.

So if they end up being right, a 6 month ban for those that are drilling them right now?

Just got off the phone. This sounds like a smokescreen. Still anticipate stevens signing after this weekend

Doubtful.  Actual media people who cover IU are finding out he is a clear “no.”

[Scotty R 2,799]

The only sliver of hope when it comes to Stevens would be that he didn't really say anything about the IU job. Also Nic Daban was more blunt about the Alabama job and still took it.

Saying that I would be happy with most of the candidates mentioned on her and only be disappointed if it got down to the Moser or Brownell types of coaches

Darian DeVries and Mark Byington have to be ahead in line, they are proving they can win in a power conference.

Well, at least baseball started today
