IU is going to get a very good coach this cycle I sure want to believe that... and understand the big picture here... but man, faith is weak after the last 8 years of crap... HoosierFan1994 1

Popular Post IU Prof Posted February 22 Popular Post Posted February 22 I'm convinced that the appeal of Beard for some people has nothing to do with coaching (because his record isn't that good). It's about the perception that he is an alpha, along with some kind of cultural/social signaling about not caring about the DV incident and his other baggage.

Beard has been to the national championship and the elite 8 in separate seasons at Texas tech. He also won a conference title there. but we’re comparing him to Chris Collins because their record vs quad 1 is similar record vs quad 1 is appearing more and more overblown by the post MikeRoberts, RoadRage, CSP and 1 other 4

I have no reason why just my gut feeling I'm curious to see how he does at Creighton without his son at the start. Doug was probably the best player on College Basketball for a few years. I'd say it would be a meh hire. He did a nice job taking Creighton from the MVC to the Big East. Again, he did have Doug but still impressive. SlammySammy 1

Happy to have you. Boy I wish I had a good answer for you. I’m scratching my head really. Trying to make sense of the Dusty extension and timing/details, Woody out on a recruiting trip for a kid who is coming to IU regardless…it’s been a weird day. There was a solid 5 days or so after the Goodman tweet that I hadn’t really heard anything that gave me a reason to close that door mentally. last couple days sounded like maybe the door was closed. But some of what is occurring really does not make a lot sense to me. Things not adding up. Not really sure what to think. I will say I refuse to believe this search is anything but Dolson and Co.’s A game, as this process has been underway for months and months. So that’s part of why this is pretty confusing to me so far (granted it’s still early). Chris007, Papacap, thebigweave and 4 others 6 1

This place would be basically nothing but charred embers if it happened, and it won’t, but they could do far, far worse than Chris Collins. How many Northwestern games have you watched in which you felt like the guy got straight up out-coached? Not sure I’ve ever seen 1. Uspshoosier, thebigweave, J34 and 2 others 5

Lol I haven’t said that one time. I’m arguing that he’s a better coach than Cronin and that’s all I’ve said
