Would love this!  He's probably my top 3 dream candidates.

 

McCasland, Oats, Stevens.  Dusty would be right there.  Lloyd would be right there.  TJ would be close.  Beard? only if he becomes more religious.  Drew? only if he becomes less religious. Obviously joking here at the end.  

But if we are gonna spend, lets get one of these guys.  

I would be good with any of these guys, but my fear is it will be someone out of left field again.  Hope I am wrong.  

 

If I keep my expectations low, then I can be happy if we get a big fish this time.

Just got off the line with a friend that's close to CMW. He said both Drew and Stevens are definitely out. Also no Beard due to off court history concerns. He states Greg McDermott is one name that hasn't been floating around that Dolson is focused on.

Just asking. I've never had anyone get in my face with religion.

Great this just reminded me of the indy 500 in like 2002. They had mega phones screaming in our faces that we are all going to burn in hell!

Some people think we've got one locked up. That's kinda what I believe too.  amazingly quiet however.  Some have also hinted our NIL, B1G, revenue sharing, etc is very attractive and might draw an unexpected name.  I've seen this in a couple places.  Also, not gonna be shocked if McCollum ends up at Iowa this year and that is a very interesting one to get an eye on.  

I like upper 40's, lower 50's for my ideal coach.  Most (all) of the coaches I listed fall in that category.

I guarantee you Woody has no clue who Dolson is hiring.

Well that is obvious.  McDermott is 6'8", clearly a big and we know Woody favors the big man whereas both Stevens and Drew are wings/guards.  So I think Woody is putting his own scouting report together on this search.

I guarantee he's very much in the loop. Wouldn't have lied just now I'm confident in that.

Just so I have it correct you just got off the phone with a close friend of Coach Mike Woodson?

I have heard Gregg McDermott being mentioned. I think Trilly mentioned him today. If it gets out to agents then it's probably a smoke screen. Scott is keeping it very close.

I want to make a bet our next coach WON'T be Greg McDermott.   Is he ready to re-negotiate his contract any time soon?

Does this info align or conflict with what you’ve been hearing?

That's a good point that many have stated.

But just saying; there is a potentially viable candidate that I have heard barely a negative word about; TJ Otzelberger.

Caption Contest!

So I live in Eugene Oregon now and have a close friend with coach back in Bloomington. Coach just set me up with seats behind the bench for tonight's game. My friend just now had this conversation with coach.

I believe that what your friend was told (and what you’ve relayed) is what Woody believes.

Whoa interesting! I don't like your info but if it is the truth so be it. Thanks for sharing. Lots of things I would like your friend to ask coach woodson. Nothing about this search but alot about why it took fate and way to long to realize playing 2 bigs at the same time wasn't working. Also please get word not to go back to it again so we can win enough to get on the tournament! Thanks!

I fail to see the humor in this. I'm trying to contribute some info on the subject.
