He’s not a journalist but he’s also not just making things up. People post lots of obviously meaningless tweets in here and I don’t say anything, you could try that! This one isn’t even meaningless ;)

I’ll give that a thought, but since this is a free message board, I think I’ll post whatever I want to. Thanks for the advice though.

Assuming Brad's out, what's the ideal March run for Dusty at Michigan if we want to land him here? I'd think a final four might persuade him to stay. 2nd round upset loss?

For someone that said he was new to message boards you have picked it up  rather quickly almost like this isn’t you first go around on a message board

Drive by coach suggestion 

Chris Collins 

Currently up 15 over Nebraska with 2 of his starters out for the season 

 

I’m not one of those make my own list type of guys, but if I was, he’d be on it, not number one but somewhere.

Does 22 years make it that much better? Wowza. 

Absolutely laughing you didn't comment on only having 1 or 2 capable title winning teams. 

If you're aiming for a guy that's had much more than that over his career you might be carrying borderline unrealistic expectations because there aren't many of them out there, let alone many of them who are also looking to switch jobs.

Understanding, however, everyone has their own interpretation of 'capable'. Yours may be different than mine and that's alright.

So you think it’s about Stevens, huh?

Considering it was a quote tweet of Jeff Goodmans tweet about Stevens…. I’d say that’s a safe bet

6 B1G road wins for Michigan. Not bad for a 1st year coach in the conference.   

If Woodson could win at home, the three road win games would have been okay.

Loss in the 1st game. Get him to IU ASAP to rebuild the roster.

I posted a question in a similar vein on HSN. Basically I asked, if we hire a sitting college coach would we prefer 

A. A deep March run to build up his profile for future recruits, but we wait longer  

B.  He loses early, but we get him early to start portaling.  With this we potentially hear about his poor performance in March ad nauseum  

I 100% quoted the wrong post on this response.

Why would Cronin even entertain leaving the Blue Blood UCLA for IU?  UCLA has a rich history of athletes and donors and their NIL potential is waiting to explode, with (in my opinion) larger potential than ours. Cronin being a Midwest guy is the only reason I can think of why he would even want to leave but even that is wishful thinking. He has never to my knowledge mentioned being enamored with the IU job like Pearl or Beard. He’s not a former IU or Indiana guy like Stevens, May, or Alford.

it would be very similar to Self leaving  Kansas for IU. I don’t see it even remotely happening.

I guess I would only put Chris Collins on the list because that would mean we'd probably beat Northwestern.

[Alford Bailey 12,739]

Cronin is picking up steam from legit media outlets. Several new articles out today. Obviously doesn’t happen til UCLA’s season is over.

McDermott who someone on here said he needs to stay at the mid major level is currently coaching on FS1 in a sold out Madison Square Garden against Rick Pitino for first place in the Big East 

If nothing else McDermott would make IU fun to watch again.

Early loss.  A deep March run increases the chances of his school ponying up to keep them.
