Coach in waiting really only works if the guy is going to quickly take over.  With Painter it was a one year wait.  A guy in waiting can very easily find another head coaching job if the team is doing well.  And if they aren't, he might not want the job.

Hopkins at Syracuse was a coach in waiting for like 6 years and finally left to take the Washington job.

The most concerning thing to me in that article was the fact that multiple "industry sources" think Marquette is a better job now than Indiana. With all the other bad press we've been getting I'm starting to believe that IU really isn't a super desirable job.

Well their biggest issue is the supposed "fishbowl" that is IU.  I don't want a wuss @$$ coach afraid of the "fishbowl."  You want to be the best, you have to run with the big dogs.

I would too, tbh. Not a top choice, but over the candidates we’ve been discussing lately.

Shaka didn’t succeed at Texas....but I have zero doubt he is going to succeed again.  While I don’t think he’d be hired at IU after just being fired (if he is fired) but we could do worse.

Loyola has a good chance to make the Final Four. If they do, I'd be surprised if Moser leaves for another job. Who was the last coach to make the Final Four and leave for another job the next season? Roy?

IF Moser does lead Loyola to another Final Four, I can get behind IU hiring him. My only point is that if they lost to Illinois we wouldn't be talking about him. That being said if he can get some wins this weekend (beat Oregon State and knock off Houston or Syracuse) that makes him a lot more attractive of a hire. It's hard to make a final four. Making two in four years is pretty good. 

The article said it puts him in the company of Tark and Stevens.

I would honestly take Shaka Smart. But that's just me. 

I'm about to the point I'd take Chaka Kahn..she could coach and do halftime show...

"I feeeel for you"...

So, looking back on ISP’s tweet about the trade deadline....Any ideas on the significance to IUBB? I know it was mentioned about possibly Brad Steven, but it seems so far fetched.
