Last day of the month let's go. Let's get the Brad train up and running this morning. 

assuming from @JerryYeagley23quietness that no news is good news eh?

Fact: Mark Turgeon rode on a black bear to get to the arena before big games. 

[Stuhoo 85,464]

 

All of this silence may have a perfectly straightforward explanation:

• We have started the coaching search in earnest.
• We have retained a search firm.
• We are speaking with agents/representatives/candidates. 
• In doing so, there are invariably numerous people at IU that will need access to this information: lawyers, athletic department staff, IT people, and more.
• Therefore, there has been an official need to have people sign an attestation that if they are in the information loop, they will keep that information confidential, under penalty of employment loss or civil action should they violate the agreed-upon confidentiality.

That would be the appropriate, professional way to proceed. That does not exclude any candidate, but it also does not signify any candidate.

Where this falls is the lack of agent chatter. Agents talk way too much.

And that's why the most valuable sources of chatter might not be from the IU side of things.

Amirite, @BGleas?

Career passer rating of 90 in that time period is perfectly good, thanks for the recognition.

With that said I think we will end up with a good coach...though it doesn't take much to find an improvement over Woodson...

And it is so sad that the bar has sunk this low that we'd hire Red Klotz if he were still alive because he'd be a better coach.

I have 30 pages to catch up on and I don’t think I have it in me this time. I’m going to jump a head. I’m assuming 1555 to 1585 is more of the same fun stuff with really no new info.  If there is would someone please be a gem and give me the cliff notes?

McCollum.  I have said that for over a month.  He was contacted early on.  I know someone there.  There were multiple discussions.  We did talk to him about his wants and needs.  I don’t know anything on the IU side though.
