RaceToTheTop Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 At least Archie can use the excuse of "we would have won the NCAA tournament if only we hadn't gotten there" for his lack of post season success.

They'll get some money from hosting the tourney but not sure it's going to be enough to make up for the massive loss. That being said, they did just upgrade Coach Allen, so, what do I know about finances? :) mamasa, Class of '66 Old Fart, Chris007 and 2 others 5

No one wants Steve Aflord We all want Brad Stevens We've eliminated a lot of candidates such as Oats, Beard, and Bennett due to them eliminating us lol Right now it appears to be Scott Drew, Dane Fife, Thad Matta, or John Belien.

It likely is not costing the school a thing. Reports/rumors are that boosters have already ponied up. And that's simply the way things they are right now with big time college sports like FB and BB. So in short, if the money is there, there's really no reason to stand pat. I wouldn't call it political capital either. Boosters boost. That's what they do. It depends on the dynamics between the admin/BOT and the boosters. So long as the boosters don't run the show, or feel like they are entitled to run the show, it's not an issue. It does give them input though, and I think that's fair. And to be honest, boosters can be better than the BOT/AD at identifying the right guy to "win". ADs and the BOT can play favorites or be incestuous about who they pick. On the other hand boosters can turn a blind eye to red flags. All in all, having the right mix can bring good balance to the decision. Well, that's one take on it. Think whatever you want, brother. Southside 1

Welcome to the board. It's the usual names Matta, Beilien, Drew, Musselman, some guy named Stevens, Fife, Mack, amongst others.

Trish Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 Bottom line is this. We want a Power 5 coach with great experience. We don't want a mid-major guy after this experience with Archie. If we're going the IU connections route, it appears to be Dane Fife as the favor amongst the board. Mr. Hoosier Pride 1

I would be completely stoked by the right young coach. Would FAR prefer over someone in his late 50's or 60's who will always be known for his successes at another school. thebigweave and lillurk 2
