In no real order. Just make one of the following say no just like that punk that turned us down (minus Beilein. I think he'd take the job in a second)

Donovan (yes, ******* call him, who cares)

Beilein (just took me 2 minutes to spell his name. I hate it but he wins)

Jay Wright (yep - call him)

Bennett (yep - call him)

Few (do it, Scott)

If all these fail - Musselman - he had his team READY TO GO in the 2nd half today. We haven't had a coach like that since Knight. 

.

.

.

.Bennett would not come to IU after they fired his sister several years ago....forget that guy.

.

Beard - I don't think the hype is real with him but whatever. He's got juice.

Yeah, I think my 47 years of following IU basketball would be over if that happened - for multiple reasons (not the least of which is he is one of the ones most responsible for starting this whole sh*tshow by threatening to leave if we didn't hire Davis).

yes ur correct he is one of the ones who started this IU BB mess with others holding IU BB hostage so they would hire Davis......how did that work out ?

I have a feeling that the next IU coach could quite possibly be someone that no one is talking about. Dolson is a smart guy. We have to trust him. I have faith that he will hire the right guy.

We have no choice but to trust him.  I thought the firing was the right move.  I will be happy with anyone but Beilein or Matta.

I’d take Woodson over Fife any day of the week. Fife is terrible.

Terrible?!?  Energy and charisma and took on an impossible job with IPFW and has now studied under a master for years.  He may not be the right guy but he’s far from terrible.

FWIW. I would greatly prefer Beard (duh) or Oats or a 38 year old next superstar. 

But disparaging Woody and his bona fides is not cool.

I think he’d have been a good candidate...15 years ago.

I’m with you on Beard or Oats or someone else younger (not Fife!). My preference is getting someone that can be here for the long haul.

So, many on here want another ...

Mike Davis

Kelvin Sampson

Tom Crean

Archie Miller

Instead of an Indiana guy.
How’d that workout.

Btw- have you seen Justin Smith at Arkansas?
Court is the same size.
Rim is the same height.
What changed?

And Steve Alford isn’t a Tom Crean or Archie Miller? There’s a reason he’s not coaching at UCLA or Iowa any longer. It’s been pretty clear that’s who you think the hire should be. And take away the phone call thing Kelvin Sampson would be a fantastic hire, that dude can coach ball

[WayneFleekHoosier 46,737]

Oooooffffff. Things are falling off the cliff in this coach search. And nothing has even happened. Lol.

How do we know Fife is terrible? 
 

I think we could do a lot worse. 
 

He is not my first choice but if Dolson decides he is the guy that is fine by me.

Bc he wasn’t able to win at a much smaller program with absolutely zero pressure. Archie had an exponentially better resume than fife. You think he can out recruit and out coach the guys in this league? I don’t.

Terrible hire. That’s what I meant. And I stand by that take. Fife would be an epic disaster at Indiana. Worse than Archie Miller.

“Indiana guy” is a sure fire way fo end up with another bad coach. I couldn’t care less what state someone is from or where they went to college. I care if they know how to coach. There aren’t any successful “Indiana guy” coaches out there.
