Bowhunter Posted February 10 Posted February 10 If we can’t get Dusty away from Michigan, I’d throw the money at Bruce Pearl. He’s old but a better coach than many others listed.

Bowhunter Posted February 10 Posted February 10 I think when all the dust settles we end up either a Buzz kill or a Cronin. Good coaches but not what we are hoping for. Kentuckysucks and Iufan93 2
VFury Posted February 10 Posted February 10 16 minutes ago, Asha’man said: If he turns it down does the money stay in the pot to get a different top tier coach? Or does the money available lessen? That's the most important question imo. That same offer would unlock a lot of coaches that otherwise would've said no.
TadQueasy Posted February 10 Posted February 10 15 minutes ago, 4iufourever said: I say this with all sincerity. After spending all weekend hitting refresh on this thread, we don't really know anything about who the next coach will be. Some are speculating IU has their guy without actually saying who that guy is. The rest has been banter back and forth about how candidate A, B, or C would or wouldn't fit as the next coach at IU. Yesterday I decided that I wasn't going to stay on here and check-- to have a life. Yet, here I am as my students are busy working on an assignment that I assigned by design to give me free time to check out the newest gossip. I need to get a life. As a fellow teacher, this is just part of the deal. Either you are committed to the process or you aren't. I have 2 months of busy work lined up so I can be checking in here often. So step up your game! Artie86, Chris007, AZ Hoosier and 2 others 2 3

However, if he somehow drags it out and doesn't sign for a while that may lead to some questions too. everything that's been said so far is that if it's Brad, it'll likely drop just prior to March Madness .... a brilliant way to "hijack" the news cycle so to speak... can't remember if that was @Chris007 or @JerryYeagley23 that mentioned that timing...

Yes. And @Chris007 has mentioned too that the timing of the woody announcement highly suggests Stevens. thebigweave, Chris007 and Artie86 3

TadQueasy Posted February 10 Posted February 10 I appreciate that video of Buzz and as I have said before he would be a good hire. But I do not have room in my heart right now for falling in love with another coach. I am committed to Stevens at the moment. I cannot cheat on my man at this time. moyemayhem, Chris007 and Ryno6284 3
