His success at Dayton was overblown, his offense was terrible and got worse every year he was there, and the perception of him was heavily influenced by him being the brother of a successful coach at Arizona. Also had their best season in a long while after he left. Were 29-2 last season. One of those being a 6 point loss to Kansas on a neutral floor. They could have legitimately been in play for a #1 seed.

Not saying it’s right, but IU will have to have a diversity and inclusion committee to “start a conversation” about his possibly racist comments. Articles will be written. Old articles will be drudged up about how IU was racist for treating Mike Davis bad. At best he’s maybe suspended for his first game or something. Go look at what happened to mcdermont this year. At worst it tanks recruiting—that and him being 90 yrs old—and dooms the whole thing before it gets off the ground. Just the world we live in today. And I say this as someone who really likes the guy and did all the way back to his WVU days. Agreed. The SJWs will be out in full force. It's baggage we probably don't need. Unfortunate because he is a good coach.

I'm sure they've also had their share of negotiations in which everything seemed to be going great to only fail in the end for one reason or another.

Went from I’m not believing anything else that’s rumored on Twitter because of Stevens to all of a sudden believing we signed a paraplegic. Dolson is obviously doing his homework, we haven’t hired anyone yet let’s all relax and let it play out before we jump off the cliff.
