He and Cronin both come from the Bob Huggins coaching tree.  That means tough, hard, physical defense…some really ugly offense.  Shooters?!  Who the hell needs shooters?!

I don't want a one dimensional coach.  Tough defense AND great offense is the key.

Hiring McCollum would be just a massive mistake

He's totally going to come on here and move the goal post before Saturday...

Isaac trying to start a BTB doomsday cult and I am so here for it.

Has IU announced the hiring of Brad Stevens yet?  I'm impatiently waiting.

When Isaac said 3pm did he specify which time zone? EST?

Not yet, we need to cycle through another Chris Beard/Brad Brownell/Mick Cronin debate first.

Apparently Texas 247 people think it’s Drew.

Why do you think their facilities are better?  Gym is newer but only seats 7,000 and the pics of the weight room look ok but IUs was better.  I did not find a practice gym like Cook Hall but they probably have one.  

Facilities - Baylor

I’ve been to the practice facility and the new arena. It’s significantly better than Assembly Hall. Yes we all love AH, but it’s lacking even after the updates. Indiana’s practice facility is old.

He actually might have been a candidate, once upon a time!

Frank might be as close to Bob Knight temperament out there....

Would be very happy with this. 

He's number #2 on my list behind the pipe dream.

Seems odd the UT folks would have the scoop before IU or Baylor...

Cook Hall is old?  People are building basketball practice facilities more often than every 15 years?

I have not heard of any donors pushing Beard. The big-time donors are and have only pushed one person. 

Us small-time donors are pushing for him too.

If it's who I think it is, he is Mike's brother or a close family member.

Unless another wears one, I think it might be Mike Epps.

I know his extended family sit back there a lot and I would not be upset if one wears one too.  Woody has been great to his extended family for years and they are a tight family.  I know some don't like Woody personally and could care less but I know someone well in the family and there are other sides to him as well that I have seen/heard over the years that are true too.  Did not work out for a variety of reasons and it makes all the sense to move on.
