50-51, 24-36 in conference play.

I just don't get a guy living off of one year.  Wasn't even like he had a year like Dusty May had and an NCAA run like he had.  Shrewsberry went 14-17 and then 23-14 at Penn State.  He left and the cupboard was bare and the new coach still went 16-17 and had a conference record just one game worse than Shrewsberry had the year before.  Too much being made of Shrewsberry's teams being fun to watch and not enough being made of his actual success really not all that impressive.

I would bring back Archie or Crean before I'd hire Shrews.  He needs some major tournament success at ND to have any chance at the IU job whenever Woody leaves or is canned.

All I can say for certain is that whichever way today goes, the narrative will swing wildly in that direction:
If we land him, we have finally taken our place amongst the elite and our NIL will get us anyone we want for the foreseeable future.
If we don’t, our staff can’t close even with unlimited money and Mullins will no doubt see us as a sinking ship and run to UCONN as fast as he can.
 
this is the only predictable outcome in HS recruiting 
Couldn't agree more

Archie was terrible and most likely will be getting canned at Rhode Island sooner than later.

He said logically he feels good, giving him room for error haha

Sounds like it's simply going to be who can pay him over a million bucks. The highest bidder will win.

That's icky, but if true that has to exclude ND, right?

to be fair, he didn't give a number amount and used 250K/550K as an example. 

IU won't be outbid

You need to watch that cussing; Miller sucks out loud at Rhode Island.

And 10 years ago, Archie was supposedly a basketball savant, sort of like people think of Shrewsberry now.  Sorry, but I don’t see it.  I mean, at least Archie has a successful tenure at Dayton on his resume.

Two people we know won't succeed versus someone who at least might. Not sure I follow that logic.

umm sure why not lol no concrete evidence otherwise

True but I bet this is the same person who was in HSN and this site telling us what was important to recruits

 He would argue with anyone who disagreed with him or guys who called him out

I choo-choo-choose Shrewsbury for being the head coach for Indiana University. He would absolutely crush it here.

That having been said, Ant's main pro-Shrews selling point is that Shrews can completely feature Haralson and thereby get him into the first round. Our counter to that is Jalen Hood Schifino; same general skill set and a mid-first rounder after one year with Woody.

Notre Dame has a PG who was just ACC Freshman of the Year, and at 5-11 is not really an NBA prospect. He was one of the highest usage players in the country. I have seen lots of people saying Haralson would play PG and have the ball in his hands constantly at ND, but I don't see how that's possible with Burton there.
