If the answer is no then you'd have to be insane to make him the HC. I agree with this, however he was on Izzo's staff for 10 years and spent some time in charge of a program. He's recruited high major players in the Midwest, knows the B1G, and is young and hungry. Just playing devil's advocate, I'd like for us to get the best person possible whenever the time comes regardless of where they went to school. RoadRage 1 Quote

He is athletic enough to guard SF/wing type, and probably better than Kopp or Stewart can quite honestly. The bigs rotation would be tough if you did this because TJD and Durr can't shoot too far out, but Durr actually showed decent touch. BtownStrength 1 Quote

Sat at the end of the bench and was in Woody's ear quite a bit in crunch time. Maybe Rutgers was his scout? Idk. Count me out on the heir apparent deal though. If we're gonna play the "good ole boys" game beyond this regime, Dolson isn't gonna work. And I really want him to. go iu bb and lillurk 2 Quote

I'd be willing to give him a 2nd shot at it (if it comes to that; hopefully it doesn't and I'm not yet convinced that it will) but would also take the pen away as soon as he tries signing another old IU guy.

Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 My sources have been telling me that Dolson has his eyes on Steve Alford if Woody doesn’t work out (or does work out and then retires). Quote

They’re probably less likely to pony up. For example, my parents are in their late 40s and were teenagers the last time we won a title, and basically my age the last time we made a final four. I honestly wouldn’t be surprised either if the old boosters decided Alford was the golden son who could fix things. Quote

Totally agree we need new boosters. I'm also starting to think we will never get back to the way it was when I was growing up. I think we had a once-in-a-lifetime coach and it's not going to be the same. I do think we can be much better than we have been and can be elite again.

TheWatShot Posted March 3, 2022 Posted March 3, 2022 We've had multiple chances to hire Alford and went with other guys. If our administration coveted him that much, he'd already be here. 94Bulldog, akumanina, Josh and 3 others 6 Quote
