Yeah, body part splits are not done at the collegiate level. Hell, they shouldn't even be done at the high school level but many small high schools don't have access to appropriate coaching. Strength training and conditioning are still done in season but to maintain the muscle that was added in the off-season. 

small high school here, thankful our head football coach was the real deal in the weight room, we didn't split body parts. Lifted 6 times a week in the offseason though... tough tough program. 

14-15yr olds that are HS FR playing JV/FR football are a little different than the needs of D1 basketball players in a 40-game season, but yes, generally, I agree.

He can still tweet out little misleading "teasers" that get people to subscribe for disappointing information. 

Blows my mind anyone would pay for that site anymore. It lost it's usefulness 5 years ago or more

I dont get the brad bronwell love. Take away last year plus this year and he is unimpressive.
If you take out this year his conference record is 128-126. Barely .500. Right now just sounds like a flavor of the month guy

His record has improved as the ACC has gotten steadily awful.

In your opinion how long do you think it actually takes him to decide vs when it gets leaked compared to the two week timeline? 

Good questions that I'm not sure I know the answer to. I think he already has a good idea already what he wants to do. How long before it gets leaked after signing the paperwork? My guess is not long

Which makes it even more ridiculous that he took the word of guys within the program with major character flaws and went with the hit piece on a now former assistant coach a few years ago. But that's another story...

He took a gamble on which side to go with.  Woody was coming off his first year where he got IU back to tourney so it was still unknown about Woodys future.  Fife was just an assistant.  Rabbys job depends on access. I’m guessing most in his spot would go with the school and head coach to keep his  access flowing.    Fast forward 2 years and he does a hit piece on the head coach as well thinking he would be gone after last year.    He chose wrong and has said he has talked  and had dinner with Fife and talked it out

Not sure I don’t pay monthly.  One time a year and I absolutely use the vip for other sites insiders opinion especially when IU gets back into high school recruiting.   Always nice to see a different perspective

It is just not that impressive if you look at his overall time in clemson. Cronin to me is much more impressive if stevens says no

The piece of info that gives me hope is Scott is looking at adding a GM. That is something that we probably need anyway with NIL and the portal but it sounds like a request from say....an NBA guy. 

What if Brad wants to be the GM?  :)

I'm coming around to this as well....sure he hasn't been around D1 that long....but you don't win 4 National Championships at D2 without knowing what you're doing.  He has moved up on my list as well...

Just listened to Fran Fracilla on the radio and they were talking about McCollum 

 

 He said McCollum reminded him of a young John Beilein with how they play and the path they have taken in their coaching career

Agree. It isn't even close

[HoosierCoop 4,067]

Honest question (and there may be but slipped my mind):

Name a (or multiple) former IU players that would be considered "A-list" or "successful"?

The former IU player coach project should be buried at this point.

But isn't fife considered a legend? He went to a championship game. Something Woodson never did. I mean they treat Woodson with kid gloves at iu cause he is a legend we are told Yet fife could be discarded and trashed by rabjohns. I guess there is a double standard.

At 10m/year, he can have any many job titles as he wants.

Armond Hill’s Napping Chair (all rights reserved)

The reason the retirement announcement took so long was negotiating custody of the napping chair.  As no one was able to get Armond out of it, it's going with him.

Yep. I know he talked it out with Dane but I've never seen any time of public retraction. Instead, he alienated Fife to about half the fanbase.
