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

Yeah, to be fair, Painter has had some rough losses to double-digit seeds in the NCAA tournament. 

Of course, IU hasn't been making the tournament, so there's that...

And when we have, it's double digit loses to single digit seeds instead of single digit loses to double digit seeds.

I think we should go all high tech and be the leader in the future of the coaching industry and have some programmers create an AI coach for us. 
 

*. He would work cheap. 
*. No off the court issues. 
*. Wouldn’t have to worry about his Alma mater or the NBA calling. 
*. He’s do all the coach’s shows. 
*. He could coach forever, or at least until an upgrade was created. 
*. Wouldn’t blame the fans. 
*. Could actually get us over the hump. 
 

 

Wouldn't be lazy and could work 247.

Incredible ability to multitask.

A master of analytics.

Always going to be like this during coach search season.    Holtmann best example of this.   Came out of the gate at OSU and most talked about how he was up the road and IU should have got him.  Slowly his stock dropped and he ended up getting let go mid season last year.   Now he is at DePaul.     

Agreed... and the one we got (Archie) crapped the bed...

Looking at this from a different perspective…

I propose a coaching staff made up of posters on this forum. Just hear me out…

HC—none other than Scotty R. He’d resurrect the motion offense. Make sure there were 4 passes before we shoot. Would have us wearing the retro short shorts from the 80’s- only program to do so, and the younger generations would go ape sh!t over them, bringing in tremendous marketing dollars.

Scotty would need a recruiting/portal coordinator. With the tremendous amount of basketball he watches, @Uspshoosier has to be that guy.

No one would ever accuse Scotty of winning the press conference, so @Home Jersey will make sure that the grammar is at least passable 

Finally, gonna need a GM. Someone to keep Scotty on track when his inclination is to go off on everyone and their brother. Probably the most level headed poster here @BGleas is the guy for the job.

 I think this staff would make history. Save Dolson tons of money as well that he could divert to Cig, Moren, baseball, etc.

Sorry I would have to decline the position.  It would cut into my college basketball watching overall and that’s not going happen.

I hear @BGleas isn't interested in returning to the college game after working in the NBA for so long.

No thanks...

Minnesota doesn't care about basketball. They just don't.  Resources have a lot to do with it, and I'll agree it's a coach's job to maximize whatever it is they may be working with, but a green coach is only capable so much at that type of program. In my opinion he jumped into the fire too soon after 1 good season at FIU where ironically he had to 180 the Isaiah Thomas debacle. His first season in the B1G he was 31 years old with 1 year head coaching experience. Those inconsistent years could very well be growing pains. He's 83-45 at NM including a 13-19 first season. Am I saying he's at the top of the list? Nah. Is he a guy who could come to a resourceful program like Indiana and eventually be a top tier coach? Sure. He's seemed to really benefit from the portal since it's inception so I think the landscape only favors him. 

This is not a campaign to go take a chance on RPJ because it's not something we're in position to do, however I do think it will be interesting to follow  his career.

There’s an outstanding thread running on preferred personal characteristics of coaches.

 

Consider matching up those characteristics with the candidates!

WTF

He is messing around.   College basketball report twitter put a tweet about May in the same format.  I’m guessing Ant paid a visit to this board earlier under BMV where he lives if I’m remembering right
