Respectfully, I don’t think Rabjohns knows much with this search. Based on who is in and who is out (from Rabjohns)…it’s sounds like it’s Brownell…now I do think Brownell has a chance but slim

Rabby is ridiculous 

I don't disagree with either of you. Just sharing what he's saying.

I'm just passing on what he's saying. Earlier he said, "IU/search firm is vetting Beard. It may go nowhere. It may go nowhere, but the chances are no longer zero. It maybe just 1%. But it's no longer zero."

 Now he says that it already happened and that it was Thursday. In response to someone asking about the Coaching Search tweet that was shared, he said, "They are way behind. IU looking into Beard was Thursday. Looked into, moved on."

Feel free to take it up with him.

If he was at the game yesterday speaking with donors he knew it was vetted, yesterday.  If he came out today with “it is being vetted” he is really out of the loop.

Lol, no offense, but there’s nothing indicating the coaching search is unraveling out of control. There’s no indication of anything concerning the coaching search. Tweets and massage bard postings aren’t indications. I believe there are VERY  FEW people who know what stage the search is in or who’s contacted IU or who IU  has contacted. We shall eventually see who’s hired  and the only sure thing is some will be happy, some neutral, and some hating the hire.

That was exactly the point of my post...

I think this may be the one leak from Dolson’s side to prepare the fan base for a McCollum/Brownell.
”Hey we took a look at Beard but we just can’t pull the trigger given his past”

Lol no

If Goodman is right then I really want it to be Beard. I just think if he got the IU job he’d make sure not to screw it up doing something stupid. He’d make us a tough hard working team again. Still holding out hope that Goodmans take is just false, but if no Stevens, Drew, or Otz, then I’d rather have Beard.

The mccollum love because he won at d2 still is baffling given our need to win big right away. I kind of wish cig never happened it really seems to have convinced some McCullough is a sure thing

That is the problem thinking we have to win big early. Do you want a quick fix or have long term stability.

If Goodman is right, and we aren't getting a top tier candidate, it might make sense to circle back on an idea someone floated last week...Greg Gard.

1) Goodman is connected and credible.

2) His info today is extremely informative. Because the process of elimination is valuable!

McCollum, Brownell, Collins, McCasland, McDermott, Murray, Devries, Wade.

That’s eight.

Call me delusional all you want if you like, but I’m on the other side of the fence when it comes to Goodman.  We will soon find out. 

[JustWinBaby 2,008]

Guys obviously Goodman knew we needed to get to 2k pages before the Brad Stevens announcement, that’s why he tweeted what he did. Everyone just relax.

Breaking my visual only approach …apologies for the last GIF. Didn’t even think about the F bomb. Sorry mods.

Scott was good and kept it close to the vest. This isn’t floating anything to soften blows. This has been done for a bit.

Guys, I think getting lost in the Beard details is TJO not being a candidate.  Beard was always getting vetted.  Long shot from the jump, but TJO man.  I would be unhappy if it’s a hard no already.  That’s who I was realistically hoping for.  

[WoodywithaL 179]

I’d like to confirm I just had a major leak and I have also not been ruled out as a candidate.

Based on the last few hours, I wouldn’t trust Goodman or anything he says right now. Because he’s not close to the situation and doesn’t know.

I appreciate the advice.  I will take it under consideration.

That was the biggest takeaway for me too. I wanted to believe the smoke from earlier this week. 

(And before anyone says it again, I believe Goodman. Sue me for believing the national guy even if I don’t like him)

Agreed. Although I'm hoping that the rumors that Dolson "had his man" were right, but that that guy was Few (I've ruled Brad out at this point...just think there'd be more smoke from non IU insiders at this point if he was effectively committed to taking the job).

Hire Chris Collins and get a potential back court of 

KJ Windham (Indy native rising freshman) 

Nick Martinelli 

Potentially Luke Goode .
