Dayton or the crown seem likely, anyone know if we can somehow get out of the crown since we’re getting a new coach?

Efff it let the walk ons play . Dallas James gonna show us what we’ve been missing all season (I know he’s not technically a walk on )

You can't opt out of Crown.  Could be stuck with Woodson for a few more weeks since that tournament doesn't start until 3/31

Read some actual reporting on the crown yesterday and apparently no one knows. Like Villanova or somebody is trying to figure out if they’re contractually obligated to go even if they fire their coach and have no players lol

Trilly just said the names he’s hearing other than McCollum are Brownell and Collins. 
 

Collins is intriguing…

NO

NO

He’s not my top pick but he is the best coach in NW history, does lots with less.

Ok, now that the game is over....time to click some of the saucy ads

We definitely need a “feast for our eyeballs” after watching that trash. 

[Hoosierfanyuh 6,905]

The crown would be a sabotage for our program lol.

Not even in my top 10, but certainly looks better than Brownell.

I will definitely be in the minority here, but realistic coaching options it would be McCollum then Collins.  Unless we can pull off McDermott.  He would probably be my top realistic if they didn’t feel comfortable with Beard.

The crown takes the cake of bad ideas.  Apparently they tried to do it in 24 and cancelled it.

I think we are all defeated at this point.....we went from shooting for the sky to digging in the dirt for candidates

He would be my A list of coaches. Not my top choice but I would be very happy. I vote for Collin’s

 Things are fine currently 

Question for you, Chris, AP and others with connections... how does this play out if we're out of the dance? Do we have to play in that Crown thing? How does that impact moving forward with a coach, the portal, etc? From where I sit, the timing will be tricky and critical.

I would much rather have Brownell than Collins. Brad has an elite 8 and a top 10 team in the past 2 seasons. He is at least trending up. Collins has never done either and is treading water at Northwestern with a tournament appearance every 3-5 seasons. He looked completely cooked a few years ago and brought on an assistant that completely changed their defense. That concerns me if he doesn't have that assistant.
