This should go without saying obviously, but there will be no press conference tomorrow. I’ll be able to take the lid off a bit later in the week. But will say this, anybody providing details right no

I’ve had several PM’s so wanted to drop a quick line to the broader board. Love this group and fully intend to continue to contribute to the community, Im not going anywhere. (Sorry to a few of you) B

So I couldn’t get much from him unfortunately. But, to me that’s a good thing. There’s been pretty much zero chatter, nor leaks for a month about coaches. He said it doesn’t matter that the season is

Man that's refreshing after listening to Woodson talk basketball. The man also is just aware, and while it's certain he does his homework on opponents it sounds like he's specifically aware of the situation at Indiana.

Disclaimer: I'm not a Cronin shill. Not an anyone shill, really. Just pro-guys that can run a disciplined, hard-nosed and intelligent basketball program.

I'm in the minority but I'd take him. He's proven he knows how to coach kids to win, but seems like one of those guys still waiting for a big break and under the current college basketball landscape IU is primed to be that program that can help elevate him.

People say hire a coach for their future, not their past. But the best predictor of future behavior (success, in this instance) is past behavior. He's not the sexiest hire largely because of his personality but two of the most successful coaches we've experienced at IU haven't exactly been sweeties themselves. It's not a beauty contest anyway. It's about finding who can consistently put your program in a position to win. He's one of those.

I gotta say, his honesty is very refreshing.  That interview definitely shifts how I would think about him as an option. Love his view on the 1 day turnaround games being prep for the NCAA tournament. It’s also great that he views the season as prep for the NCAA tournament. The B1G needs more coaches that think and recruit that way, rather than building rugby teams and counting on terrible home court refereeing advantages.

If it keeps signing you out try clearing your search history and then log back in.  That has worked for me in the past

Unless Dusty doesn't let them lock him up. If IU is a dream job for him there's not much more they could offer financially compared to IU to make him turn it down. It all depends on him.

The question I would love to have an answer to is: Would Dusty have signed with Michigan if his buyout was $10M, because either he demanded that or Michigan just didn’t push for a high buyout?

Am coming more onboard with Cronin with more digging; think UCLA has a very poor level of support compared to what IU would offer. If it gets past May, think they could do worse. Cincinnati hasn't been the same since he's left.

Yes. It keeps giving me hope that Brad Stevens will be the next head coach, so something is off somewhere.

I would be shocked if IU doesn’t get May if they pursue.  I don’t care that he has only been at UM for a year or that they will try to lock him up.  The key point is that they didn’t lock him up to begin with.  I can’t believe that UM didn’t protect themselves more when he was hired.  
 

For a good comparison, look at Roy Williams.  He had Kansas rolling, and left for UNC after another alumni Matt Daugherty stunk as a coach.  Sound familiar?  When asked why he took the UNC job, “There's several factors [for my decision] -- my roots, my dream and my family.”

6 B1G road wins for Michigan. Not bad for a 1st year coach in the conference.   

Used the NIL very well also. Brought Goldin with him and added the stud point from Auburn and big from Yale to mix with talent he already had. COY honors probably doesn’t bode well for us.
