madmax Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 I don’t particularly want Beilein, even if it includes a top assistant as head coach in waiting. I’d be open to Matta if he is physically okay. I want Oats, Musselman, Beard or of course our Great White Buffalo. FWIW, Rick Bozich claims he was told Scott Drew is “extremely unlikely”. Make of that what you will. GaryP 1
Bobman1 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 That actually gives me a lot of hope! We are doing this search at the right time. Tournament may be in Indiana, and we may not be playing, but we will still be the talk of the tournament. I love it!Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appHave been thinking the same this week, any publicity is good publicity I guess?Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 IU should be a top five job, and after the disaster that was the Archie Miller era, any coach who can get us back to the sweet 16 I’ll be seen as a savior. We all want to win titles again, but can expectations are lower than they were after we fired Crean. We have to get back to the tournament first before we can think about titles.

Mr. Hoosier Pride Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Has an NBA coach ever left mid season to take a college job? Curious if this is a possibility. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Who knows.

Trish Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 We want to think Indiana is a top job but we interviewed and hired one guy last time and he was a mid major coach. things have gotten worse. Has the job increased in value over the years? Ehhh...

IMO...The job has never stopped being valued, but perhaps McRobbie's emphasis on academics limited what the AD could do and with him on the way out and Dolson, a true IU guy who "gets it"..well as Dylan sang.. maybe the times they are a changing! .

I heard that part of it was Freddy didn’t like to fly so he didn’t want to travel and interview multiple candidates plus I think he had a search firm involved too which Dolson isn’t doing.
HoosierAloha Posted March 16, 2021 Posted March 16, 2021 Just running through some thoughts here..Brad Stevens left Butler for one of the top spots of all of basketballHe stated he grew up watching Knight and IU was a dream jobIt was rumored he didn’t like recruiting in college, although he shot that downI believe at one point IU reached out to him but he said he wouldn’t talk unless there was an opening007 posted that he was contacted before but wouldn’t “answer the door” but this time “he answered the door and listened”Dolson stated today that they haven’t talked to any potential candidatesA donor gave $10 mil to part ways with Archie (would they need guarantees who the next coach is for that sum of money?)Another donor has agreed to pay for some other costs associated with the coaching changeHas Brad listened to what the plan is and decided he could build something at IU?Has 8 years in the NBA given him enough cred that he can recruit at an extremely high level in college?It’s interesting the words chosen by Dolson when others inside the program have stated otherwise. I truly doubt IU would be able to convince Brad the timing is right but things could fall into place. I’m still thinking it’s Beilein or similar.

Has the job increased in value over the years? Ehhh...Strong disagree.History, facilities, Status, Recruiting Budget, now “lowered” expectations, fans, historical venue. All that stuff is the same which makes us desirable. The biggest attribute is $$$$. Always is, and always has been. Glass didn’t want to crack open the budget. He wanted a winner on a budget. A reasonable budget but not a knock your socks off budget. If we are willing to offer top 3-5 money plus all the other inherit perks, it’s a destination job on the highest order.
