Not necessarily at IU, just in general. He wanted the Evansville job but he asked for a little too much. I think he also wanted the IUPUI job or UINDY job but finished 2nd. You have to understand he is a very private person. HoosierKnight 1

IUc2016 Posted March 25, 2021 Author Posted March 25, 2021 I really wish he would have gotten the Evansville job so we have a better idea of what he is as a coach. Even if he would have been mediocre there it is still experience that he could bring to the table. If he knocked it out of the park, well then this is a no brainer. Chris007 1

That would be a great situation IMO. Much better than him just being the head coach.

Alford Bailey Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Has Calbert at least been a top assistant anywhere not just on staff?

Stuhoo Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 I think I come back at times to the things we KNOW are true in this coaching search, and there aren't many: March 21, 2021, 10:59 pm: March 21, 2021, 11:02 pm: About 90 minutes later, at 12:36 am on March 22, 2021: An Evansville AAU program head with the first tweet. Followed by a "shhhh" response from an Indy AAU coach, and A "happiness" follow-up tweet by our Evansville-raised point guard.

I kinda thought this was in regards to Matta , it was like the next day the whole he was offered the job but failed physical came out . I may be totally wrong

IU - Kaulie Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 CC was before my time. I wish I could have seen him play live. My father says CC and Jim Jackson’s matchups were EPIC. Chris007 and IU Scott 2

The Big Ten was not as deep then, but the top teams were better than recent vintages. Not really close, IMO. Might not be as deep but it was way better overall especially at the top of the league. This years UM team would probably finished no better than 6th back in 92 Hardwood83 1
