Reads that Chris Beard gets drunk at local bars

Asks for proof

Provided proof

Now states a video of a drunken slurring Chris Beard in a bar, on Christmas Day no less, is not proof that he gets drunk in public.

 

Getting plastered all alone in a bar on Christmas Day. 

I'm guessing that is a pretty good indicator of a drinking problem.

 

 

You don't know my family.  :)

All that truly matters is we won’t have Woodson as our coach next year. We’re upgrading no matter what.

No doubt about it.  Though, I think it’ll be who we all want.

This is an underrated point. I’d be happy with a potato on the sideline at this point if it meant no more WoodyBall. 
 

But hey, there isn’t a fanbase in the country as good at coaching search szn as us, and I think that’s really beautiful. 

As long as that potato can make in-game adjustments I'll consider it a start.

Anything flowing in from Trilly these days? I may have to join during this coaching search.

We have donated a lot of NIL money, I have random things I get told to me. Some true some not. I was told recently that Goode has filled out for another year of eligibility that he was not doing if Woodson was staying. I personally gave $5,000 extra to get Goode here (I am sure he had plenty of money, but they said they needed $5,000 more). So take what you want. I am not an insider nor claim to be. I just have a good circle of friends who are pretty cozy with some high up donors and some of the NIL members.

The floor is yours kind sir....

I wonder who #1 and #2 are. Oh wait the same two we've been saying for months

I'm thinking about entering the portal and going to a different IU message board but I could be swayed to withdraw my name and stay here if you are picking up what I'm putting down.

An analogy, IMO...

Picking out a great coach from the lower ranks is a lot like betting on a penny stock.

For the situation IU is in, we're looking for a blue chip guy to come in and pay dividends right away.

There could be higher upside to buying in early, but we need stability and good yield right away.

...In a different cycle I'd love taking a flyer on McCollum. Don't think it's in the cards this time around though.

Any advice?? LOL

Pretty Weak hot board. Stevens/May/Drew those are the three the tea leaves are swaying per their hot board. Beard is up there but clearly up there for talking points, they do not think he has a shot.

I have a friend who was in Drew wedding party (30 years ago), I will reach out to soon see if he has any interest in the IU job. Last time with Kentucky his wife said absolutely not. They are big into Church etc. and Kentucky did not offer that type of environment that Baylor did and they did not want to move their children... I do not see how Indiana is any different.

How wild would it be if it turned out that KathywithaC turned out to be Chris' wife? 

That would make for some really crazy dinnertime conversations...LOL

She makes fun of me and this place all the time. She said last night why don't you go talk to your buddies who you don't really know. 

[Jeff Flabjohns 2,765]

Goode and Tucker are the only guys with potential eligibility I’d even want back next year. Excited for a completely new roster next season

No I am way to busy, I just pop up on these boards once in awhile. I will DM you if I get any info and you can spread the word. Few years ago I had Trey Kaufmann going to purdue 1 day before Rabs knew- because it was leaked by their AD accidentally. Well I posted it and Rabs banned me after I went off on him. So I refuse to post on peegs anymore.

DM me anytime I will share what I know but you probably have the same info.

Well, most of us have full sets of teeth, which in and of itself makes us better that Kentucky.

I do not get a lot of info. Just have few lines that will randomly get me things. I want to find out some info on Drew. That should just be a few text.

Crean was able to win 2 B1G titles and 3 sweet 16's while he was here. Also, there's a direct comparison between the two, because they both coached Marquette. Williams went farther more consistently in the tournament than Crean did.

Really makes me wonder how Crean would've done in the NIL era with IU's big pockets and maybe like a realllly good personal assistant or two to keep the chaos at a minimum and everything organized well. Wonder if he'll ever coach again??

Sure just DM me with first/last name, SSN, and checking/routing numbers... I'll take care of the rest.

You'll get a statement every month and you won't be able to believe the return

I'm not sold on Tucker. He takes a lot of bad shots. With that said, he's only a freshman and with proper coaching, he might prove himself to be an asset. I'd like Mgbako to stay too. Most coaches would have him play in his natural position - a 4. I think he could have a breakout season with right coaching.

Someone who I am ready to move on - and it may be unpopular - but that's Reneau...I just don't think he plays winning basketball.

Sounds good Bernie info incoming.  Can't wait to see my ROI.
