Yeah without a doubt. But you don’t make the change unless you know you can land a great coach. He knows his reputation is on the line. 

A great coach? Sure!

But not necessarily who Treesh will consider to be a great coach.

I totally agree, the players were going to boycott and the AD caved and we got Davis.

Exactly then he made the run with Knights team and talked about leaving for the NBA and got a big extension and raise.

Give me the guy out of the next tier that has the best vision for what college basketball will become over the next 10-15 years.

Beilein has been the best coach in the big ten in the last decade and two years ago was 30-7.  Coach K is 74, Boheim is 76, Pitino is 68 and isn't Bill Beliechick in his late 60's

Completely agree...Belien has been great!

Not so good in Cleveland, took him a long time to get established at UM, and he is not a long term or even a medium term answer.

By the way... the only elder statesman you cited above who’s been worth a crap this year is nasty Pitino.

Yet you want a mid major coach from Cleveland St that is a flash in the pan

Any chance Teri Moren wants to switch over the men’s side? I’m only half kidding. 

[maharkn 1,686]

He would excellent. For real.
The best choices may not be the obvious ones.

He is probably one of the next ones up to take a head coaching job in the NBA. I imagine it would be something that would make an NBA assistant to at least think about it.

I’m good with Beard but I won’t be surprised at this point considering everything I’ve seen in my 35 years of being an IU fan. I thought my student years would be the lowest we could fall with Davis, then Sampson, then the rebuild with Crean. Oh and Dak as a coach as well but the last coaching search and these past four years with Archie have made me not doubt how bad we can screw things up. We seem cursed to be honest

Sometimes I get the impression he thinks any young coach is amazing considering some of the names he throws out.

Don’t love the idea of Fife. Or Boynton.
So there.

Plenty of room on the Ed Cooley bus gents!

j/k 

Beard, and it's a steep drop-off after that.

I don't know who is on the short list at this point but I feel like whoever it is will be a disappointment to a lot of Hoosier fans.

As someone mentioned. 
 

We’re looking at the used cars right now. I have a feeling we’ll hire from the under 10K lot again.

I want a final four. 
 

Not a big ten championship or a sweet 16. So my expectations are pretty high.

“Dane Fife: Final Four Participant” just isn’t striking a cord with me.

Crean won...until he didn't.  Many Hoosier fans have become so cynical/skeptical/irritated by the last 2 decades of basketball that the winning better come quick and consistently.

I'm not sure I understand all the hand wringing around this place. Sure, we didn't get the biggest fish.... but if Dolson was about to pay $7 million a year to Brad Stevens, I'm willing to bet he's going to get someone really good. Smart money would be on Beard.
