Mick Cronin has coached over 700 games. And hasn’t had much tournament success to show for it. I hope we can get someone better.

Who is to say that going to IU isn’t the thing that makes the youngest active coach to get to 500 wins to become an elite coach.  The guy is already considered a top 15 coach in the game today be some outlets.   Cronin wanted no part of the job the last it was open so not sure if anything has change on that front.    Not sure why any sitting B1G and SEC would want to come to a rebuild opportunity of a mid  level B1G team (results wise)if they have it rolling elsewhere.  History tells you IUs coach will come from a level down

If he gets the job, I hope that happens.

Hate Brownwell all you want but maybe hiring a coach that respects the history of IU basketball and knows how important the state of Indiana can be to recruiting might not be a bad thing.   He isn’t going to be the first or even the 5th choice however there are plenty of other crappy routes IU could go.   Getting a sitting ACC coach wouldn’t be the end of the world.   Give me a lifer and grinder and I will give them a chance to prove me or anyone else wrong

The first half of this is what we were told to sell us on the current coach.  Sorry, it's not going to work again.

That’s  cool but unlike the last coach Brownwell has been involved with the college basketball game as a coach for more than 30 years.  They had to sell you on that for Woody because he had 0 years in the college basketball game.

And Brownell has been mediocre for the majority of those 30 years.  He is a flavor of the month hire who hasnt been able to make the tournament in a mostly mediocre ACC conference.  

Nothing will sell me on him.  We will be right back here in 4 years if he is the hire.  

I can be sold on most of the candidates mentioned here; he is not one of them.

So lets say, It is Brad and he's signed pen to paper.... How long until press release / We find out?

 

If he has signed something; It would have already have been leaked.  Nothings getting announced regardless until our season is over.
