Nice deflection.

So the message from moderators is, if you have a concern that doesn’t jive with the majority of, we won’t consider your concerns, just go away.

Understand more every day how this place works 

Don’t go anywhere. I never agreed with your unwavering support of Woodson but appreciate your fandom. Stick around, hopefully good times are ahead!

Zeller went to a basketball game so some leaped to the only reasonable explanation, I.e., that Brad Stevens is our new coach and Cody Zeller was scouting in his capacity as Brad’s soon to be GM.. Lol 

This is my personal head canon and I cannot be persuaded otherwise. lmao

Yeah, but you dropped some other names, too.  I've made my comments about Buzz.  Not one bit interested.  He and platitudes are good friends.

Calhoun is on same level as McCollum and Schertz to me and 3rd on that list

Byington is only okay. Same w DeVries and Murray.  Just "guys."

Gates?  You're more interested in a guy with an overall .570 winning % and who in year 2 at Missouri had a winless conference season over a guy who's won 81% of his games overall and won 24 games this season?

Pitino, Jr. - over who?  He's not even been "good."   His record is very mediocre and we beat him regularly with very average teams.

I like Brownell, too.   Collins is interesting.  I'd love to see what he can do with more and better resources.

I don't see any of these guys as more sure things at IU than McCollum is.  I like Schertz better and I think I'd be happy with Brownell; but Buzz is all Texas and doesn't fit here.  His brand of basketball is solely "be more athletic."  His offense is 100% ball centric and stands around way too much.  Watched them yesterday.

TJ Otz....   I'm not sure on him.  I think he's okay....but I also think we've seen his ceiling.  I'd support him but I question whether or not he can be a 20-year "great" coach.    I think Schertz and McCollum offer that chance more than he does.  The danger I see is fans judging next season because of the precedent set by the football program.

Again, one man's opinion.  I like Schertz.... and the only case against McCollum I've seen is "not enough experience yet."   But....he wins.  Like I said, I'd rather have the next great coach and give him a season or two if his next 20 will be great than watch him succeed elsewhere and have our ceiling be the Sweet 16 once in a while because we missed the timing again and settled for "someone with more experience" even if his record isn't nearly as good.

Got an idea!

Let’s agree that Chris Collins is a real option under consideration (he is), is still surprisingly young, is a really quality guy whose teams play incredibly hard, and who would be guy that might not win the press release, but could be a helluva good choice.

Be honest you and I both know there is very little coaching news because nobody knows anything. You came in here to cause trouble. You still haven't said who you want or think will be next coach?

@JerryYeagley23 @ap2345

any thoughts on the Sterling statement?

Neither have wavered from Stevens....so I'd venture to guess their thoughts are along the lines of "Kent is finally hearing what we're hearing"

Am I close guys?

They've run a quiet search. JT III has finally had the time to recharge his batteries, and is ready to move from the Wizards' front office. NBA connections are valuable...

Give it a rest man. JFC

I’m just struck by how crystal clear May’s recent statement was about not coming to Indiana vs Stevens about how much he loves his co-workers. I liked my co-workers at every job I’ve had. And left them behind when it was time to move on.

Man just give it rest. I truly don’t understand why you’re so worked up over a message board. It’s not about not caring or everyone having to think one way. 90% of your posts are just you complaining. If you want to have a discussion then have it, but stop getting bent out of shape over every post towards you or in response to you.

I’ve not been here long but in my short time @Uspshoosier is one of the chillest dudes here so if you’ve got him memeing you, you’ve probably done something to annoy folks.

You better chill or I’m going to pass you on the board rankings.

I'd like to get back to having fun reading posts about IU basketball....for any of you wanting to police the functioning of the board, please go apply for a job in the athletic compliance office and use your talents for something more important than a free message board.
