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

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

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

Still trying to play sheriff, I see.

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…..

Do we know if Cody has made any other possible scouting trips? 

Guys, he's living in the Nashville area so maybe he was just doing someone a favor by watching Sanderson.

Say what you want about Kent, whom I actually like, he does have some connections.

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

Certifiably!

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.

That post wasn’t worth a response

OK boys.  Play nice.

[Banksyrules 5,344]

I’m in the full belief that it’s Stevens. Just too quiet which makes me believe Scott Dolson did his search long ago. Typically something is leaked. Prior to Hubert Davis being hired, there were multiple hints of who got interviewed etc. Manly because some friends or family of a perspective candidate would talk (out of our control).  

The fact that even trusted people within IU are keeping quiet tells me that there is a specific timing thing that needs to be respected. 

[cleeter 3,024]

Yes.  A few pages back.  Very interesting — as other posters noted could be a GM role for him and he is likely in the loop with our next coach.

That’s where my brain wandered to.

If IU didn’t have a coach, why would Dolson say they are creating a GM role to work with the HC next year.assuming he’d be okay with it (though most probably would be). Why would zellers name be rumored to be in position for that if we didn’t know who HC was. Why would Zeller be at HS game “scouting” Jonathan Sanderson. Do we know someone who might be a candidate for IU HC that also was a person the recruited Zeller? Coincidences? Does Dolson actually have his guy already? Kent thinks so.

Or maybe he’s doing coordinated scouting for a guy who recruited him to Butler which was all set up by a boys trip to the Breaking Bad set. 
 

Let us have this one old fart!

Clearly double standards. For weeks, anyone who posted an opposing opinion on the FMW thread were told that “ this is the FMW thread.” Go post elsewhere. Unfortunately keeping threads to their topics only goes so far.

Thanks. I had no idea his whereabouts since he's inactive for Houston.
