Well, at least nobody has submitted Michael Lewis for consideration....

He comes after we strike out on John Groce.

Wooden isn't doing much these days and he's used to paying players.

I would guess we talk to his agent first to make sure there is interest. Once we have done that, discuss some numbers, after that we better notify Michigan we are coming for their guy. Just how I'm guessing it works

But you have told this chat Stevens in the one. So why are you entertaining the May talk still?

Are you his agent? Or are you Mark? Either way I understand. I'm just kidding welcome to the board

Neither of course, but one degree of separation to Mark.

Everybody needs to calm down and touch snow.

Let's get this on record since I have said it repeatedly on here. I think Stevens is the first choice. I think there are talks or have been talks there. I think we can do that right now because May is still playing. We have more time to work with Stevens. If Dusty is the guy I think I would be the happiest person. I was on this board for months last year saying hire him. From what I have been told from people here at the university, donors, and others, Scott thinks he has a shot this time. What I say here has no bearing on any of that. I'm just sharing what I hear is going on. Sometimes it's correct and sometimes it's not. I think we are in a good position with Brad, but Dolson might already have a deal done for Dusty. To me either is a win-win.

I can tell you at a minimum there’s no deal for anyone right now.

This board is adding a new character every day lol. Color me intrigued by our new friend with a connection to Turgeon. There is definitely not a deal with anyone at the moment IMO

Unless you are scott dolson or Whitten there is absolutely no way you can definitely say that

I appreciate your post. What can you tell me about the maximum? If you feel you need to DM me to tell me everything you know go for it, I'm happy to share my side.

I do know there’s no deal as of yet.

True not definitively but you can say that with a reasonable degree of certainty IMO. Theres no way you have a deal with anyone actively coaching another team right now. That takes 99% of candidates off the table, unless we are getting either the white whale or Mark Turgeon. Which I’d assume are both close to 0 as of now. There could a “deal” as in an understanding of mutual interest but most likely not any kind of actual agreement on a contract. IMO.

I suppose that’s sort of true but it would also make for a very weird scenario where they’re talking to at least one prospective hire despite having a deal in place? Doesn’t make much sense right?

Do you have someone specific in mind to do the beheading or can Hoosier Connect use it for a fundraiser?

Then they can call it Hoosier Disconnect.
