People who think the smoke screen theory is real believe both parties want less smoke until the right timing. Give Goodman that statement to squash it. Then when the timing is right, Goodman gets to break the news which would massively boost his profile IMO. Again I don’t buy the theory but there is a straightforward enough answer. Can buy that from the Goodman angle but boy....the hoops in this obstacle course. To each their own. Speculation is fun for awhile. I'm nearing the point of just wanting this to all be over.

Home Jersey Posted February 21 Posted February 21 5 minutes ago, rcbowla said: As @WayneFleekHoosier has been saying this all sure seems to point to Dusty. The extension still looming, the buyout, the ties and the comments at the presser. The most intriguing of those comments was when he said he hasn't even talked about the job "besides with family" or something very close to that. So haven't talked about it except with the most important people in his life. I'm at about 90% certain it'll be May and I'm cool with that. I hope you are right… I feel 90% certain it will be “the field” as of now. But Dusty would be the coup of a lifetime.

I’m just using the Beard avatar because I think it is hilarious, Beard with Lucille is funny as hell! I will be changing it as soon as a final decision on the coaching search is made! But I will say this, if Dolson would pick Beard, I know it won’t happen, I would support the choice. But because of the way that choice would divide the fanbase, I hope he chooses someone less polarizing. Home Jersey 1

MonteMarcaccini Posted February 21 Posted February 21 9 minutes ago, Willson said: Not making a prediction, but anyone think the timing of the Marquette game announcement was unusual and early, before we have a coach? Aside from multiple game series and mte, non conference scheduling seems to be relationship based. Eiu, ualr, Kennesaw st are some examples. Fyi, Marquette was butlers opponent in bs final game as a college coach. Marquette s coach, shaka is close with bs, going back their a10 days and before. Bs would even go to vcu games while he was the Celtics coach. No idea if its bs, but how cool would it be for his 1st iu game to be against shaka. Thought I read it was a MTE with these two as the headliners, with an earlier game at home opponent TBD. Probably needed to confirm the venue and logistics.

Popular Post Iu1973 Posted February 21 Popular Post Posted February 21 Indiana needs to inquire about Todd Golden from Florida. He is only 39 and his teams play hard on both offense and defense.

Rick Pitino on what Indiana should do. https://x.com/cbbcontent/status/1892970607240675427?s=46&t=NZjaaKtv7JVi03edCEfdbQ Interesting take - I agree Beard would be an incredible coach. That said, I get all the feedback on his personal issues. However, people can change and can rebound. We're not a perfect species. Maybe get the guy some help in his personal life (which he'd have to be willing to do) and make the role specific to his engagement/commitment to whatever the agreed to criteria is. I mean, we don't want someone who prays too much. We don't want someone who doesn't pray enough....we're a pretty selective bunch. Hate to tell you, but Brad Stevens spoke at length about his faith at my church. Should he no longer a candidate? Many say Woodson is complete lush and I have first hand stories about that part of his life....he just hasn't been caught. I can't defend Beard's domestic abuse, but know that most abusers were abused themselves and need help. OGIUAndy and MikeRoberts 2

Golfman25 Posted February 21 Posted February 21 51 minutes ago, rcbowla said: Rabjohns made a good point in his video. Why would Stevens set his buddy Goodman up to look like a fool? Tell him something that is false and then let Goodman's credibility take a hit for it? Doesn't make sense Because it wasn’t false. Words mean things. He was no longer a candidate — he had accepted the job. :) And Goodman helped his buddy throw smoke to keep it quite until announcement time. :) Hoosier Guy, Chris007 and J34 3
