Look at it this way, we're not getting news today so that means we're pass the IU guys, Thad, John talk. 

 

Not necessarily

That’s some awesome sauce from Trayce.

Hopefully he is talking to the guys and not just saying it on Twitter.

We do need to get this show on the road soon though.  Yeah, the transfer market is there to be taken advantage of this year, problem is, all but 16 teams are done playing this year and anyone with a coach is already reaching out to guys.  We're a ship adrift at sea at the moment. 

Yes, patience, we want the right guy.  But I don't want to lose 2 or 3 years to rebuild because we sat around too long.  At this point, whomever the hire is better be someone from a list where they have not been completely available for weeks.  Like if it is truly a player being looked at, f-ing hire him already.  If we are waiting on someone, I hope we have some real assurances of interest.  Every day that ticks by puts the next guy at a disadvantage to every other coach who is already in place.

Don’t we want transfer players that are good enough to ply for those Sweet 16?  Those players are waiting to see what their options are

If it's Calbert, I'd imagine we know in the next 3-4 days if not sooner. Why wait?  Same for Woodson and Beilein - what are they waiting for?

I'm still guessing Beard. Don't believe Scott didn't reach out - unless there's something we don't know about him, that would be absolutely nuts to not send out a feeler. 

We also know the players have no idea either or they wouldn't be mentioning potentially coming back and TJD would have made a decision. You'd think if Scott knew who he was hiring, the players would be one of the first to find out.

Maybe those guys are fallback options?  Still chance we have to “fallback”??

The main Rivals writer for IU believes the job goes to one of Beilein, Woodson, or Cheney. I'm not sure how connected he is though.

That list is so depressing that it just may be right.

That and 3 bucks will get you a good cup of coffee.

DD said on his show today that he knows of a situation in which one of the coaches that fans keep bringing up offered an Indiana Mr Basketball $50,000 dollars to come to his school. Not sure what coach or Mr basketball so anyone else have any ideas. 
 

PS: we don’t need all the DD’s full of crap comments
