General Coach Candidate News

Quinn Buckner says you all are welcome! Not time to panic. I still think Indiana can hire a very good coach. But dang, it's going to be hard to think that Indiana could have had him a year ago.

Woodson is the gift that just keeps on given.

Seems official

Peegs seems to think he’s staying put.

If May’s camp is working on an extension, MIGHT it be because he received a courteous notification that the IU position if filled, so there’s no reason to hold out any longer?

It really is sad that two people who were legendary players for this program have just about ruined their reputation all because of ego. Going to be really hard for the fans to forgive them if they don't get this hire right.

Will be interesting to see what the buyout number is…

Until we make a shitty hire, I look at this as possible good news.

You never know. I won't panic until we see who IU hires. Indiana STILL can hire a very good coach I have no doubt. It's just frustrating a very good coach who also went to your school was available a year ago. Yet, you stuck with Woodson and now May is at your conference rival.

Mick Cronin is inevitable. Lol.

Maybe Buzz Williams.

Hopefully McDermott or McCasland, if that's possible. 

I don't think Oats, Drew, Beard, Otz, etc. are on the table. 

During the football search, don't think many of us were talking about Cig other than Lebowski. 

Wonder if the basketball hire comes out of left field too. Hopefully in a similarly good way if so. 

I've warmed up to Buzz - not my top choice, but certainly a solid hire

It’s that we lost him to a conference rival that is the most upsetting. He’s gonna be a thorn in the a** for a long, long time.

Easiest answer is that IU screwed up because they refuse to move on from crappy coaches when they should.

History says prepare for a disappointing hire and being back here in 4 years.

Well, fudge!!!  We better get a stud coach or Woodson will be remembered for being a mediocre coach and costing us Dusty!

that's what I'm going with...

[Hoosierfan2017 23,012]

Yeah we’re screwed lol. Dolson’s top two choices are gone. Brad Brownell YOU are an Indiana Hoosier.

I admire the optimists amongst us.

You guys should figure out a way to bottle that up and sell it :) 

I have an extremely hard time finding any sort of positives in this Dusty extension...
