we're in the bottom of the 9th inning, down 5-4 with runners in scoring position on 2nd and 3rd.  We need a double and both runners to score.  Who are you choosing to win with the at bat @Chris007 @IUwins0708 @ap2345 @JerryYeagley23 @RoadToZion 

 

Respond with your best guess/gut feel

I have no clue.  Thought it was McCollum

[Ron Mexico]

No to Brownell and Buzzkill.  I could live with DeVries but please tell us someone bigger/more competent is in the works.

Dakich thinks it’s Devries.  That would be strange to meet with Iowa and then less than 24 hours later you have accepted and signed to be the Indiana coach.  Hard to believe.  

Was it confirmed he met with Iowa yesterday or was that just internet rumor?

Seems like we’re all just waiting on a media leak, thinking realistically the presser wouldn’t be until tomorrow

Rabby: 

Good morning, everyone.

Nothing concrete at this hour (7 a.m.) but a lot of smoke that something could happen in the next couple days, and I don't think something happening today is completely off the table.

Always love the insightful insider, "it could happen in the next couple days or it couldn't and it may or may not even be today. Keep checking back with me for more subscription worthy info."

Raby claims he has confirmation there was NO meeting in Iowa.  Doesn't mean there wasn't a meeting at a neutral site but DeVries was not at Iowa.

I wouldn't classify him as less competent. Not sexy? Sure, for the time being.

Sorry for another message, but I'm at Disney. My wife was getting mad at me about to get on a ride and had to rush on my post. After reading the message again, it sounds like the flight is leaving tomorrow. I will share more details if I find out.

Sounds like someone is tripping balls after getting off the Alice in Wonderland ride.

[croneleoni]

What flight and to where?

I asked him, but he didn't know. He doesn'twant to ask just in case of getting his friend in trouble. My brother-in-law's guess is tomorrow morning is the flight. I'm assuming there aren't a lot of flights that come in and out from there. It should be easy to track.

There may not have been a meeting but he did talk to the Iowa AD.

I agree. But if Devries asked them about NIL and they told him they were still at a million, which they supposedly were last year, I imagine that would shut it down pretty quick.

The flights people tracked suggested they met in Chicago.

Dan is a terrible source.  He doesn’t have good contacts, he doesn’t check facts, and he has no problem repeating rumors and lying.

Sounds like he’d fit right in….

[94Hoosier]

If it’s DeVries in my opinion it’s a good hire.  Not a great hire.  And certainly not a grand slam. 
 

he will be a huge improvement over what we had the last four years though.

To be fair, most hires would be better for Indiana than Woodson.

Of course it's Turgeon, right?
