Dean Friedman? When were you at IU?

When they give you a softball, you gotta just smash it over the wall...

I think you might be surprised that many IU fans and friends don’t look at every half of every game and want to fire or extend the coach based on that 20 minutes of play. Most had high hopes for him, especially given all of the previous disappointments, and they’re genuinely sad that it didn’t work out for him and for the University. Not sure why people find that so odd or unbelievable.

because he had it handed to him on a silver platter.  And instead of grinding his way thru and committing 100% to the job, he loafed it.  Then started blaming the fans.  He did it to himself.

Can we get back to some fun rumors.  8 hours of this has been enough. 

Kathy just refusing to deny we're still actively talking to Brad, after dropping hints all afternoon (that we're not in communication with "active coaches"), is perhaps the best rumor I've seen this week.

He has nobody to blame but himself.  

Woodson? Agree. As for hiring him, we went after a long shot that had a very low probability of success, we went to Plan B and, with that in hand, thought we were finished. When he backed away, we were hasty, overly sentimental and willing to talk ourselves into something that proved to be too optimistic.

Care to elaborate on what they are doing different this time to ensure we don't get another woodson or Brownell?

I think that’s quite evident, even as he posts on this board.

There were coaches a 1000000x better than Woodson that we could have landed.  What a bunch of morons.

And somehow landed on plan F and hired a mediocre nba coach with zero college coaching experience. Not exactly a ringing endorsement for coach szn 2k25

I feel like when the board is all doom & gloom that some blast from the past comes to save the day and resurrect the Stevens rumors
