I REALLY don't see Bennett happening, but if IU could pull that off I'd be ecstatic.  Guy is a really good coach.

Yes, leaving 2 seasons after winning the NC and without some obvious reason is hard to believe.

Money and IU’s history is much richer than UVA

Right...but to Kendrick it might be.

I might be able to find something out later today. My wife works with one of our players on the team’s sisters. I’ve never tried to ask. I guess that would be considered a source.

I will say Woodson would be the most giffable coach since Crean.

Money I get, but IU's history didn't win a NC 23mos ago.

I'll be happy with Bennet, IU will win a lot more games, I just find it hard to believe he's looking to move on. Same with Drew. Guess we'll see.

MIke Woodson wouldn't even be an Eddie Gaedel at bat...

Knight's teams won in different ways, not always track meets.  He's the best coach ever for a reason.

We could win in multiple ways, but more times than not, the team was very good offensively and put up points.

Mike Woodson would be a strike out let's be serious.

Eddie Gaedel NEVER struck out.

Hot take: Mike Woodson is a tall basketball Eddie Gaedel.

Probably a better chance Stevens leaving Boston then Bennett leaving Virginia

Mike Woodson would be the combination of striking out looking and a fastball to the crotch.

I just want 40 three point attempts a game and to have every player yell "Kobe!" every time they heave one up. Just hire whatever coach that can put this into motion!

More like one of those at bats were you swung and the ball still hit you

Here is what we did scoring wise under Knight along with how the season ended. Now I might be crazy with high standards, but we only missed the tourney once under Knight when we averaged 75+ and won two titles. Now the early 70's were obviously a bit different. I believe we won a share of the Big Ten in 73-74.

My lord, that triple overtime win (can't remember the year)-- that was fantastic! My friend (God rest his soul) gave up and went to bed. Couldn't wait to tell him the next day of our win.. good times

I believe it was 87.

Wisconsin had a great team and we're really starting to be a major pain in the @$$ under another guy named Bennett.

Not real high on Mack coming just because of sanctions at U OF L. I want a winner but I also want them to WANT to be here not because it's their bail out option. 

IF it were him, he would be leaving an area where he has huge ties.

And, FWIW......have to say that if Ohio State and Indiana had offered Bob Knight the job at the same time, he would have been a Buckeye.
