I’m actually somewhat surprised it’s considered quite so outlandish to explore Turgeon. Does no one realize Mark was co-B1G champ right before covid wrecked all of his momentum?

That was not that long ago.

Okay, you had your fun. Now you are just trolling.

No kidding. I think a Tom Crean 2.0 update could hold it's own against some of these candidates, taking into account learning from one's own mistakes.

Uh...I know you're kidding, but didn't Georgia prove that Crean didn't learn from his mistakes? 

His time there was an ever-loving disaster...

Not an option. Not an option for IU to hire a 72 year old, and not an option for Rick to want to leave St. John’s at this point in his life.

But his 42 year old kid is a helluva coach. A coach that as an overmatched 34 year old was nevertheless B1G Coach of the year, and as a now still very young coach has his team at 22-4 in a tough conference.

The New Mexico(Pitino)-Utah St(Calhoun) game yesterday was a pleasure to watch. Those are very well-coached teams.

So let’s talk Rick Pitino.

I love this board. LOL

And I was trying to decide between an old .gif, a strippers .gif or a bathroom sex .gif. 

It's so challenging with Pitino.

No, like I said, connection is via a mark connection specifically. 
 

And look everyone, I know mark may not excite a lot of the base the way others might. But he’s an accomplished college coach and those aren’t easy to find, and again there’s some feeling it’s a good fit from an intangibles perspective.

Look guys I don’t blame you a second for the initial reaction and take no offense at your skepticism. And I will say it’s not like I’m in the room for these convos or that mark or the IU AD or anyone directly involved in these conversations has told me this stuff firsthand. Just thought it’d be of interest that this is what I’ve been told by being indirectly connected to this specific direction of the process.  And if you take a breath and think about it from a 90,000 foot view, it actually does make some sense in my opinion. 

Even with my LASIK surgery, I’ll admit that from 90,000 feet away Mark Turgeon and Brad Stevens are pretty indistinguishable.

TheDMV has to be bobknightsghost just trying to prove a point that he can get anyone to believe anything by just coming on here and stating something as fact.

I will say there must be something in the water... there's been a tremendous influx of trolls, whackos and other ne'er-do-wells roaming the halls of BTB these days...

Tom Crean, who most definitely would know:

”The number one requirement for (being the head coach at) a place like Indiana is that you better have been (figuratively) punched in the mouth many times in your life… and I’m not talking about dealing with a three game losing streak.”

Yup. There are a bunch of really good coaches for whom this ain’t the job. Your self-belief and vision for your program better be utterly bullet-proof.
