ap2345 Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 That's crazy talk guys. Brad isn't coming ever. He's perfectly content in a job where his subordinates earn 5x what he is. I’ve heard from someone that knows Stevens that he has been frustrated by that in the past. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
IU Scott Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 I was looking at the roster and if we lose those 3 in the portal but keep everyone else then it is a good roster to start with. PG- Lander 2G- ? Hopefully get a great 6'5 shooting guard SF- Hunter PF- TJD C- ? hopefully a 6'10 long and athletic center who can step out and shoot outside Bench RP Leal Galloway Geronimo Brunk Duncomb

I thought it would happen immediately, but it just got delayed about a week. These guys are doing the right thing for themselves and keeping their options open. I'd expect at least a couple of them to be back. In regards to the coaching search taking a while, yeah I was hoping it would be Stevens like everybody else. But after that, who would people want that is available right now? The hot coaching candidates (Oats, Musselman, Moser) are still in the tournament. Beard is interesting too, and it sounds like they've reached out to him now, but IMO there's no reason to rush this if Dolson is actually interested in one of the guys still in the tournament. I don't think any of the players in the portal are going to commit to a school in the next week, and I would guess they're going to want to be back if they're excited about the coach. So yes, Dolson needs to nail the hire, but I don't think he should feel like there's a time crunch. I think the fact that the guys entered the transfer portal this week is evidence that the coaching search has turned. Scott obviously told them something to make them sit tight, but now with the Matta rumors, and possible Woodson, who knows, the kids have gotten antsy. Chris007 1

Other fanbases are taking great pleasure in seeing us sweat this out, and some of them are trying to create as much doubt and confusion as possible to stir the pot. I can honestly say I'm neither anxious nor impatient. I'm also not terribly optimistic either. That's what surviving the Sampson, Crean and Miller searches can do to a guy.... thebigweave 1
ap2345 Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 What do you think of that dude? Is he just a crazy dude?I’m not sure. He’s consistent so he’s either a major troll or he thinks he really knows something. At times there’s things with Stevens and this search that make we wonder if he isn’t still the focus of Dolson. Then I go back to thinking there’s no way. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk HoosierSadaseci, thebigweave, Capt. Crimson and 4 others 6 1

He led the Atlanta Hawks to three postseason appearances, including a 50-win season in 2009-10 and two playoff series victories. Yes, it's true that he hasn't been in the college game; I believe it will be necessary for him to have a young, college game grinder on staff. Otherwise, this would be a guy that would be a pleasure to root for. Would it work? Beats me, but maybe. While there's a lot to be said for an experienced Woody, sometimes an old Woody doesn't work out as well as expected. Everyone wants a successful Woody but doubts remain that this Woody is up to the task. thebigweave 1
woodenshoemanHoosierfan Posted March 24, 2021 Posted March 24, 2021 I have no problem with high expectations. The nauseatingly negative opinions about a coaching search that people know absolutely nothing about yet are childish.ThisSent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk

Way too easy for a leak when 10-12 college-aged kids and social media are involved. I’m thinking Al just wanted to go home for final year. That’s all assuming he goes to UGA (which is close to home) with Crean (who recruited him). That just me assuming/guessing though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
