jumpshot53 Posted February 11 Posted February 11 Connie Chung is married to "which man here is the father of your baby? The lie detector says". Maury Povich...lol. She has no standards. I wonder if the BOT sound like us on this forum, my goodness, I almost feel sorry for them in making a choice, back in the day. They probably just told Quinn to make the decision and went home. I went to a charity golf tournament and the booze was flowing. I'm not sure there are any sober coaches or the people that hang with them around. The country club set loves their cocktails. If I favor a coach, I don't care what other fans and media say, and I don't worry if we will be a laughing stock. Honestly, we can't fall much further in being a joke to others at this point. Saying that we can't do this or that because of the optics is not great, isn't something I worry about. There aren't many schools or coaches that can pass the squeaky clean test. Oh and last point, MIck Cronin may be an a$$, but yelling at his team or throwing them under the bus, is the last thing that team is worried about. My 7th grade coach called us "little M fers" everyday. Not a big deal when your coach goes off on you.

Our president Ehrlich spoke out against him so Knight flew to Arizona State to ink another deal. Students found out, picketed his house, hung him in effigy; and the prez recounted his statement. The rest is history but it’s easy to see how our loser mentality now permeates the entire administration. F Myles Brand who started it. T White 1

Scotty R Posted February 11 Posted February 11 For a coach to be do superior like you said Beard is to Cronin then why do they have pretty much the same winning percentage Cronin 68.4,% Beard 69.1% So with this and the off the court things I would take Cronin. CSP, PartyintheVillas and T White 2 1

Otzelberger and Will Wade are my 1 and 2 but I don't see Otz leaving ISU and I have finally resigned myself to accepting the IU brass won't approach Wade. I would take Oats, Beard, and Scott Drew over Cronin in a heartbeat but they aren't realistic candidates and the Stevens talk is pure nonsense that I won't even entertain. May, Williams, McCollum, etc would feel a lot like settling at this point. Cronin cleaned up Alford's mess quickly, wins on a consistent basis which is the thing I like the most about him, has a hardass-mentality which is needed here, and has ties to the Midwest which will help with recruiting given IU's NIL resources. I’d love Oats. Think he’d come? Scotty R 1

Cronin is a good coach. Beard has made it to the Elite 8 twice in 8 full years of coaching division 1. Cronin has made it once in 21 years. The floor is about the same for both in my opinion. Both would do well. The ceiling is higher with Beard. That being said, I'm not particularly a fan of either being Indiana's head coach. pumpfake 1
Motley's Posted February 11 Posted February 11 6 minutes ago, IUHoosierJoe said: I’d love Oats. Think he’d come? No. His team is ranked #!. They are on pace to probably win the best conference in CBB and be a #1 seed. He was in a FF last year. IU offers nothing that he can't achieve where he is. His new contract will now run through the 2029-30 season. Oats will be paid $5 million the first year of his new deal, athletics director Greg Byrne told the committee, with annual increases to $7.55 million the last year. Oats' previous deal was set to pay him $4.7 million in 2024-25 to $5.5 million in 2028-29. Oats' new salary places him within the top seven coaches in USA Today's database of publicly-available contracts. Oats' buyout under his new deal will be $18 million for the first two years until March 2026, which Byrne said is the highest of any coach in the country based on his research. The buyout then drops to $10 million until March 2027, when it drops to $4 million until March 2028.
