General Coach Candidate News

I think IU fans would like Mark Byington's style of offense. A ton of passing, movement and unselfish play.

He is sick and tired of basketball being the end all be all around here. He says we are a football school now. Love that guy. 

I hope this happens.  Football is king, so much bigger than bball as we know.  We will still have bball, but being good a football transforms IU athletics to a whole other level and everyone will benefit.

Honest question, because I know there have been plenty over the last 25 years: if Dusty wins the Big 10 and has a very successful career at Michigan for the next 10 years, where would you rank “Woody Gets His 4 Years” amongst all time administration blunders?

Right up there with hiring him in the first place.

I didn't go back and read, can someone please get me up to speed on the current status?

Stevens didn’t want to lose his front row tix to the WNBA skillz competition this weekend so he’s not signing the contract until Monday.

Cig is so great.

Offer McCastland 7 years 50 mil and make him  turn it down.

While it may not be true that Cig is lobbying for him, I would absolutely LOVE Byington as the next coach.

He checks all of the boxes for me.

How do you feel about him vs. someone like Schertz or McCollum?

If Dolson wants a personality hire like he made with Cig Cronin fits the bill.

I liked his JMU team last year

Cronins buyout is pretty big though. $16m prior to March, 31st. $10m after that.

Not sure he warrants that but will be curious to watch how it all plays out.

That’s where I am at. I’d be fine with him, I’d just be shocked if someone was willing to pony that for him. Oats I’d understand.

I’d hope we have our sights aimed higher for that much money.

And this is why you take a HUGE grain of salt with everything you hear. Even national reporters getting put in a trash can lol

Back the damn truck up for Oats. I may be happier with an Oats hire than a Stevens hire.

Dusty May

Nate Oats

Bruce Pearl

Would be my 1,2,3
