If the resources are so great, why haven't there been decent results over the last 25 years? Shouldn't the resources elevate even a crap coach? Or were the resources nonexistant until this year? Resources = NIL We can legally pay players now. BGleas and JPCIVOP 2

Many of said they'd prefer someone who would be of a long term nature and I just don't see Stevens doing that so as much as I hate using the word,, yes, a bridge hire. AZ Hoosier 1

Just look at the last 4 years we have had a crap coach and he has a chance to make the dance 3 out of 4 years. There is no doubt Collins is a lot better coach than Woodson. With out the resources Woodson record would be a lot worse. theriverpilot and 12345Brad 2

I get it northwestern is hard to win at but the results we would expect from him would be such a big jump from what he currently has done in his career. Him and brownell are the two “candidates” i would struggle to get excited for. Thankfully i don’t think Scott would consider collins go iu bb, Sandman and VFury 3

So why hasn't any other blue blood program snatched Collins up, if he's that close to a sure thing? Uk or Louisville didn't have the resources? VFury 1
JPCIVOP Posted March 1 Posted March 1 3 hours ago, RaceToTheTop said: He was butler’s head coach for 6 years and has now been with Boston for 13. Not sure how that is a guy that leaves quickly. Also think that, in this scenario, he leaves with IU at the top of the college game and as the most attractive job in the country.
Hornsby Posted March 1 Posted March 1 Chances were here again in 3-4 years? I’ve got 50/50.Everyone gets 4 years but I'd say 50%. Missing may last year will bite us probably.Sent from my SM-A146U using Tapatalk

Well, look at Woodson. He's make obvious coaching blunders. He's been incredibly slow to make adjustments. He's a crap recruiter. Yet, NIL basically bought him ample raw talent. IU's resources are the only reason that Woodson isn't 17th in the B1G right now. Woodson is actually a great example of NIL buying a terrible coach the chance to be in contention to make the tourney this year. AZ Hoosier, theriverpilot, BGleas and 1 other 3 1

coonhounds Posted March 1 Posted March 1 The only reason that makes any sense to me why Dolson didn’t scoop up May would be because he must’ve had BS in the pipe line…anything else seems like an epic failure.That is what I believed at first as well. When the Steven's stuff really ramped up I believed it because it is the only thing that made sense. To me dolson had conversations last year and Steven's said he would come if given time. Dolson decided to keep woodson and pass on dusty to wait for Steven's. Now that the Steven's stuff has pretty much been curb stomped into the ground i am realizing this is just another iu epic blunder. I admire the posters who say they aren't worried cause they know we are going to get a great coach. Lol this is iu we are probably not going to hire a great coach! Imo we will probably downgrade again and be trying to debate who was worse.

We understand your pessimistic opinion because of the last 25 years of this program. We are all conditioned to the let downs and disappointment. However, I am one of those you mentioned who believe we are going to get a good coach. The landscape has changed in basketball and this job has never looked more appealing than it is right now. That's why I have hope and I believe there certainly isn't a reason to work yourself up before any announcement have been made. That being said, if we come out on the other side with Darrin Horn or Andy Enfield, I will join you in disappointment. P.S. I think BS is very much in play. thebigweave, Pagoda, woodenshoemanHoosierfan and 5 others 6 2
