Had a lot of work to do today and then the first post I see is talking about hiring Brad Brownell. God help us all.

I cannot imagine a world where given the other options Dolson hitches his career to a Brownell hire. What other Brads are there lol

Brad Underwood

That would be almost as hilarious as the Eric Gordon flip.

If you had a choice between Brad Brownell or Beard with baggage, I can't imagine you don't take Beard with baggage...

I'd give BB being our next coach, the same percentage as the asteroid hitting the earth by 2032.

2%

2% is way too big a chance.

I'd be rooting for the asteroid if Brad Brownell was our coach.

Guys, the Beard stuff shouldn’t need to be explained this much. Everyone knows that he is a great coach. There is so much more involved. Our NIL resources are a huge advantage. You take a huge risk in losing big donors when you try to hire a polarizing (bad guy) like Beard. Make no mistake, you do the things he’s done and you’re a bad guy. This isn’t the Bob Knight era anymore. Doesn’t matter if you like it or not, our resources will be what makes this job more attractive than the last 2 times around. Keep the donors happy, win, keep the money flowing. There are plenty of other coaches that can win besides Beard. It’s a public university. They just aren’t going to take the chance because they don’t have to.

That's the way you hire Beard...float out names of terrible hires and act like you are going to hire them, and then BOOM! Beard is the saving grace hire that everyone can "live with" in regards to the baggage he brings.

Well if this first one happens I hope the second one does too.

If they end up hiring Brad brownell, then it was risk they should’ve taken

That would be the opposite of making a splash. Gross. 

Exactly. I would rather give a pile of cash to someone like McCollum than touch Brownell.

Also that, which just literally popped in my head. Why would he even be talking with Goodman about this?

I thought that too.  There are more well named sports reporters that he is personally friends with, and it sure as heck not him!

You’re gonna need GCF in this situation.

[Hornsby 3,015]

Nope. Lots of people wont support him due to the specific transgressions he was accused of

Maybe but I bet the arena would still be packed.

He didn't. It was a Celtics source I belive. Source was told "I'm not a candidate"

That’s even weirder

It's a good thing we established you are just a troll, otherwise I would be very worried right now. 

Replacing Woodson with Brownell would be very much in line with the last quarter century of IUBB. Then doing this again in 4 years because they never learn.
