Stevens as GM and Turgeon as HC? Am I crazy?

Any combination that has Turgeon as coach isn't crazy, it's certifiably insane. Please get fitted for a straight jacket at your earliest convenience.

If Brad comes to IU in any capacity around the basketball program....you can give the HC job to anyone you want other than Mike Woodson.

Stu I need you to say the two names. I have been very aware that you have refused to interact, quote, or respond with any message that mentions a certain someone ;)

Sure! Because I have NO idea if I’m correct! I truly have not spoken or interacted with anyone that I believe knows. And the ‘gotta be one of two guys’ is purely my conjecture!

But if we already have our guy I would expect it is Scott Drew or Stevens. And of those two Drew would be the more likely.

So that’s my opinion.

I’m just picking on ya, I have appreciated wholeheartedly your insight on potential candidates. I have just been impressed that since the Goodman tweet you have been very strict about not entertaining the whale, understandably so!

Is there anyone Zeller knows that would justify him being at that high school game? 

Was the game in Nashville?  That's where Cody''s wife records.

I would pick the other guy if I had a guess.

If Sterling is right that IU has their guy, I'd think it's someone that isn't currently coaching. I'd have a hard time seeing a current coach agreeing to terms (or signing) with a new program when they're getting geared up for March; any contact would just be through agents and reps right now I'd think.

I get the chicken salad from time to time. Was that his favorite dessert from there?

But wouldn’t that depend on the definition of “got”?

Do we have enough money in Woodson's couch cushion?

Stevens, if he returns to coaching, is immediately a top five or ten working coach in the English-speaking world.

He’s been excellent in a front office role but in college that’s a much simpler job than in the NBA. If you can here BS and he’s willing to coach, he’s the coach.

It seems strange to me that he’d want to be a GM or similar at the college level.

I'm not Stu, but my guesses are Stevens or Bennett.

Maybe just me but I wouldn't say that unless their was an agreement on terms at the least and I'd be hesitant to do that without a signature.

If it was just that they have a guy they feel good about I wouldn't say they got their guy.

Glad Sterling posted what he did. Whether he’s right or not, his post at least got this thread back on point of discussing the coaching search instead of the people here who feel it necessary to bash Woodson in this thread. Thought there was a separate thread for that and too bad that the mods don’t steer posters who want to continue with the criticism to that thread.

And since it seems any topic is open for conversation here. Today’s game certainly suggests that there are guys on our current roster who are worth keeping for the next regime. Played their hearts out today. People who have made the comment that they are done with the entire team and no one should be kept really need to rethink that opinion

We’re good.  Maybe some of the Mods that do this for free might have had 2 daughters playing in their own basketball tourneys today and might of not had time to check on this thread but thanks for the suggestion.  Looks like the thread is getting along just fine though so…..
