All of these talking heads say it’s crazy that a president of basketball ops would step down to return to college. You just wait til they find out we convinced two to do it! but actually would love it if Brad was there looking at Flemming or the other guy who hit a million threes for IU next year 8bucks 1

VFury Posted February 22, 2025 Posted February 22, 2025 If Brownell makes a final four this year do we still feel hesitant about wanting him? That would give him a better two year run that pretty much any coach we've hired this century.

Alienating that is plain dumb. 3) piggybacking off #2, when IN kids are winning titles or making national championship game runs at other programs while you’re spinning your wheels at IU with “national “ recruits even the little ol’ grandmas in the stands know it is over for you. I have said it before and will repeat it again hundred more times: the Indiana job is hard. Huge upside, but hard. There’s too many needles to thread. You can’t just be an ol coach off the Div 1 street and automatically win because it’s Indiana. This is pre-NIL mindset. High school and AAU coaches have about 1% the impact and influence today as they had 5 years ago. High school recruiting hardly matters anymore, and for the few guys ready to make an impact in year one, it’s all about the money now - not relationships. WayneFleekHoosier, VFury and lillurk 3

He isn’t going to be the first or even the 5th choice however there are plenty of other crappy routes IU could go. Getting a sitting ACC coach wouldn’t be the end of the world. Give me a lifer and grinder and I will give them a chance to prove me or anyone else wrong Sounds like Crean and his "It's Indiana" schtick... but he burned bridges with Indiana HS and AAU coaches... and recruited guys like Oladipo, Priller, Sheehey, Muniru, Cody, Hanner, Yogi, April, Anonuby, Gelon... he was all over the map... and for every really good recruit that he got, he managed to sign a bust or two... Every coach misses on a recruit or two... but we need a guy who can do better than 50%... and then do the development Uspshoosier and go iu bb 2

Indiana high school recruits decisions should have no bearing on IU basketball. We want a national program not a regional program. I couldn't care less if a recruit is from Indiana or Uranus. Rant over. I would question the athleticism of kids from Uranus. thebigweave and #1fanofafrin 2

Ponduke Posted February 22, 2025 Posted February 22, 2025 Has this guy been discussed yet? He's obviously never done it at the D1 level but still, his record is amazing.
