I'm told his daughter is more likely to go to Notre Dame than come to IU. But she is ok living in Indiana. 

Fine choice for IUBB's HC daughter

I think it came down to the football game, we lost so they're out. LOL I have no idea really was just told she is probably following her brother

I expect a Tweet from Goodman, Davis, etc any day now confirming that Dusty has signed a new deal with UM with a $15-20M buyout.  It’s coming.

Nevermind that Kentucky sucks, you suck!  lol!  Way to be a Debbie Downer!!!

I actually feel better about getting May after just 1 year at Michigan rather than him being there longer and establishing roots. His bags still aren’t fully unpacked yet. It’s as easy as he appreciates the opportunity Michigan gave him, he turned them around, but he got an offer he can’t refuse to coach at home. I think the only way Dusty signs an extension with UM is if it’s because Dolson isn’t trying to get him.

Key question, is he renting or does he own?

We have less than a month to get this thread to 2k pages. To spark conversation, we need RTZ, Isaac, Chris, AP to speculate some based on known information. Remember, it's not about how many times you've been wrong, but only about the one time you're right. It's how legends are made. Gentlemen, the task is simple: speak Brad into existence, fall back on Dusty, and if all else fails we will settle for #BringTomHome to see some exciting Hurryin' Hoosier basketball

There, fixed it!

Or we can require each post have no more than 2 letters :) 

Thus a single post will not take 10 posts to convey a message

If ever there was an absolutely perfect match for Indiana University basketball…

It is Dusty May.

He’s 62 and his last two years are well below his historical standard, the chance he’s washed or retiring is wayyyyyyyyyy greater than the chance he’s gonna move to Bloomington and reestablish what he’s got at KU

Maybe his actual coaching is exposed now that he's been forced to play on a level playing field when it comes to "acquiring" talent.

I agree!  Chris knows I’m going to win!

DM will be our next head coach!

I'm not going to speak for the others but I will :-) but I don't think you will see them on here sharing info unless it's Isaac. When we do and then Goodman releases a flimsy statement we get called names, bashed, and everything else. I know AP has been hearing it on the discord, I heard it here every day since last Friday, and RTZ just seems like Jerry staying away till the season gets closer to being over. It's easier to just discuss amongst ourselves. 

I will continue on the coaching candidate posts because I enjoy it but that's about it. If we don't get our top 2 I like McDermott, OTZ, and McCollum. That's about it for me. I could get used to Drew but the church stuff loses me quickly. Cronin is OK, I think he would win but just not my cup of tea.

Must be all about defense becasue their offense is worse than woodsons

OH MY!

I didn’t say that Dusty May would be the next coach; just that he’s the perfect match.

Very different.

Goodman's Tweet will be @The Field of 68 has learned Dusty May not a candidate.

  Dusty May quoted as saying " I like Ann Arbor's  Hola Seoul for the korean fried chicken."

More likely the tweet just says “May not a Candidate for the IU Job” since Dusty said that he is happy at Michigan!

Didn't someone write a nice "A Case for Dusty May" post? With a bunch of bullet points?

I need to find that.... to show my dad why this is a good idea :)

I did! 

The case is even stronger now that he’s leading a good B1G team that was very bad last year. Maybe some of us around here know ball :)
