Uspshoosier Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Just now, PartyintheVillas said: What has he won at the division 1 level that is unprecedented? Beating Kansas St and Vandy on a neutral court. Really good wins for a Program like Drake nothing special just yet. The argument against that would be he hasn’t had an opportunity to play the Elite level teams just yet kottke 1
Crazy about IU Posted February 14 Posted February 14 18 minutes ago, Trish said: There are some rumblings on the other site that Dolson was seen earlier this week getting one extra scoop of Ice Cream at Jiffy Treat. We have our guy. That is a sure tell I bet you are a excellent poker player.
WRSMick55 Posted February 14 Posted February 14 7 minutes ago, Trish said: I don't see a new coach announcement before the season ends. I really don't think Brad Stevens would approve of that while the team is in season. I don’t see why the university couldn’t make an announcement something like “ we have hired coach X effective at the conclusion of the current season whenever that occurs. Hopefully, after a long run to the NCAA championship.” There are advantages to IU and the new coach in making the announcement asap. And certainly would close the door to Woodson IU career. Then again, can see them wait until the season is officially complete. Trish 1

Stuhoo Posted February 14 Posted February 14 Interesting AI pull for the most successful men's D2 basketball coaches ever: Ben McCollum Led Northwest Missouri State to four national championships, including three in a row in 2021, 2022, and 2023. McCollum is also a NABC Coach of the Year award winner. Arad McCutchan Coached Evansville to multiple NCAA DII titles, including back-to-back titles in 1964 and 1965. Jim Crutchfield Has won 86.4% of his games, the highest winning percentage of any coach with at least 10 seasons of experience at any level in NCAA history. Larry Gipson, who won NABC Coach of the Year in 1982–83 and 2002–03 Ray Harper, who won NABC Coach of the Year in 1998–99, 2000–01, and 2007–08 _________________________________________________________________________________________ So the question is - how did McCutchan, Crutchfield, Gipson, and Harper do as high-major D1 coaches?

Hornsby Posted February 14 Posted February 14 I will give Dolson this. At least he isn’t shopping from the Archie Miller or Mike Woodson bargain barrel this time it seems. Feels like my Bears going after Ben Johnson after paying Eberflus half for 3 years. I want to believe. No insight to how hands off certain outspoken individuals are behind the scenes. Been trying to get a feel on that as much as anything. That will tell us how much freedom Dolson has and what the decision will look like. I don't think he ever shopped the Mike wodson barrel. It's pretty common. knowledge now the king was forced on him. Every single podcast I see now admits it was all quinnSent from my SM-A146U using Tapatalk mdn82 and Woodsonshump 2
