What was the reason that we think Otzelberger is not a good candidate?  I can’t remember if it was a “he won’t come “ or a “we can do better “?

I'm pretty sure they said, there isn't any IU sized shirt that would fit him!

How about the winner of the Miss St vs Ole Miss game ne our next coach.

I've wondered if maybe his family still doesn't want to move and he needs time to convince them. 

I have nothing better to do today, so theory time, but the Celtics (again) probably swooped in at the last second and offered him minority ownership. They did it with the Gm position back in 2021, so minority ownership isn’t out of the question.

IMO, if we "had" to have a former Knight player be the coach 4 years ago, it should have been Alford. But this wasn't about a former Knight player. It was nepotism- plain and simple.

Exactly, and at its best too

There isn’t one, Goodman got a text from BS saying he was happy being in Boston and going to work everyday.

Which, quite frankly seems very strange to me because it seems like BS would do something more classy like address HSN specifically and say something like “I’m very honored that the Indiana fans want me to be their next coach but I am happy in Boston, etc. etc.”,  Instead of some Flippin comment texted to some random sports dude.

I...huh? "I'm happy in Boston." does not equal "I'm not a candidate for the IU job." So people just jumped to that based on Goodman's tweet?

I would say we're in agreement on that.

Plus isn't his wife a former player at Iowa State?  Can't remember which sport, and I think her side of the family are all around that area too.

Here’s the original tweet:

Of course when you read the On3 Article (or any other article) it only mentions that quote and nothing else.

What about getting Tony Bennett (NCAA Champion) to coach and then we hire someone as a GM to manage the NIL part that of the job that he didn't like?

Tony Bennett (433-169) 0.719 win % at Washington State and Virginia......and he's only 55.  Is it true his wife is an IU Grad as well, or is that part false?

To me, sending a text about a subject like this seems unprofessional and it doesn’t sound like something BS would actually do, IMO

It feels like a grenade went off in here yesterday.  Everyone is disoriented from the blast, we’ve got some folks down, some are unaccounted for, no one quite knows what is going on.  It’s going to take time to recover…

No I saw that, but the only thing in quotations is Stevens saying he's happy in Boston. I find it odd the part about not being a candidate isn't in quotations as well. Also find it odd that that's the only part of the text Goodman shared. So we're to just take it on Goodman's word that Stevens specifically said he's not a candidate?

Isn't the word described from WWI, "Shell Shock"?

Also that, which just literally popped in my head. Why would he even be talking with Goodman about this?
